I'm sorry, but which game won game of the year last year? Oh, that's right. Skyrim. In fact, it dominated GOTY awards. Does kicking Zeldas ass not mean anything? Being the first western game ever to get a perfect score in famitsu, does that mean nothing? Is that what you're saying? Because if you're saying that I can assure you that you're wrong. Why would you make this post? Bethesda has been critically acclaimed games for how many years now?


And they've been steadily cutting out RPG elements from their flagship franchise. Skyrim is near the edge between "Action RPG" and "Action Adventure." Just like FF13, they've been trying to cater to the action/shooter demographic instead of RPG.

The only reason Bethesda gets such acclaim is because they're one of the only to even create an open-world sandbox RPG like The Elder Scrolls games, with little to no direct competition for that style.


Try the Witcher, Borderlands, Dragon's Dogma, Kingdoms of Amalur, Dark Souls, Two Worlds, Two Worlds, Fable 2 and 3 and Death Spank series. You still haven't said what they are taking out. Using second hand opinions much?

I am not saying there isn't anything bad to be said about Bethesda games but ignorance and bandwagon opinions based off of popular anti-mainstream rhetorics isn't gonna cut it.

Whatever those games do, clearly lots of people love those games. The fact that you don't even play them and think your opinion is more valuable than those who do is a bad joke. How can you even discuss this genre at all when you don't even know that other titles exist?

Epic is pretty much in Microsoft's pocket, so it is no big surprise there. Their games typically are PC and Xbox 360 only except for their ios games.

Bethesda did at one time say they might try to get Skyrim on the Wii U though I do not care much for their games seeing how broken their games tend to be on top of how slow they have been to get fixes in for the PS3 let alone Dawnguard up and running for that system.

Rockstar has not fully ruled out the Wii U for GTAV as far as I know, but I would rather play Lego City Stories with plenty of replay value with the track record of the company making those games over a GTA game.


Ruling out developers because they do not have launch titles ready for the system? That would be like assuming Capcom is not supporting the Vita because they have not announced any MH game for it, yet.

Rockstar: "We'll have a bigger line-up for Wii U than we did on the Wii,"

Epic: “We haven't made an official announcement about that platform. And while we loved the Wii, it just wasn't a fit to make a game that would go across Xbox 360, PS3 and the Wii. It just wasn't possible. So going forward, we're working with those folks and we're very interested in the Wii U,"

Bethesda: "If they are a good fit for the kind of games we are making then absolutely, we would look to put them out for those. But beyond that I can’t get into specifics.”

-They removed attributes from Skyrim, and notably cut out any way to modify your movement speed or jumping ability.
-The "Speechcraft" abilities have been reduced to nothing more than alternate quest dialog; there's no disposition with NPCs anymore.
-You can't summon a diverse selection of otherworldly creatures anymore (although this is somewhat justified by the lore, and necromancy is handled better).
-Offensive spellcasting was crippled compared to mundane weapons, and you can't design your own spells anymore.
-Guilds were stripped down to a short arc where you, the newbie, get handed leadership after doing a few short quests. And as leader, you don't actually lead anything and all you get is some token reward. And guards still think you're the newbie.
-Dungeons, while better crafted than in Oblivion, are still linear and sometimes corridor based, rather than in Morrowind where they felt like a part of the game world.
-The dragons, for all their hype, do not have as much backstory or depth as the Sixth House Cult and Dagoth Ur in Morrowind.

Their poor handling of the PC and especially PS3 version really gets under skin. They were so adamant about putting on all those platforms, yet they can't even properly support anything but their precious Xbox 360 version.

I don't even know what's worse; their treatment of PS3 customers, or the fact their PR head lied to PC customers about the UI.

Bethesda already said a Skyrim port is very likely.


Here, folks, is another example of a TC talking out of his ass.

I can see the eventual Skyrim GOTY edition coming to the Wii U when released for 360 and PS3. And GTAV could very easily be coming to the Wii U, as Rockstar have yet to announce any platforms for it.

Rockstar = We have no idea if they are supporting or not, they supported Wii so there's a bigger chance they'll support Wii U better.

Bethesda = How do you know they aren't supporting it?, last year they said "we'll support it if it's powerful enough", which it is, plus Reggie hinted at Skyrim for Wii U.

Epic = They are supporting it, Unreal Engine 3 and 4 will be on Wii U


Skyrim? We are talking about the Wii U, a next-gen console.


We are talking about a company.
"oh look another console"
"Can it run the game with great sales"
"Yup"
"Money is yum"
