This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

3. No excessive self-promotion

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

On the plus side, it is a spectacular story and just masterpiece of a game, even for its age.

On the other, first Hollywood couldn't get over the whole remaster and release to milk that cow, and videogames are all onboard the milk train.

Cause, new ideas are too expensive and it's easier to repackage and upscale I suppose.

Still, feels exciting and disappointing at the same time.

I brevet enjoyed the original. I found it tedious and repetitive with going into near identical hell holes to pick up rocks. Not too mention the leveling system, of all the janky TES leveling systems this might be the worst. The only thing I like with the original is the music.

The reason they did this is probably because Microsoft needed a Bethesda game that isn't starfield to sell gamepass and tes6 is so early on it doesn't need many developers yet so they can afford developing this instead
