Why would a company with multiple blockbuster franchises completely scrap the engine they're made in?

[–] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.fmhy.net 6 points 2 years ago (8 children)

Because the engine is behind the standard set by decade out games

Weird that they keep hitting the ball out of the park.

Its because they have a massive mainstream audience, like people who buy Madden and FIFA every year

Ah yes, it must be the dirty normies playing Bethesda games, no True Gamer would ever buy them

No? What I mean is they have a massive more casual audience that doesn't play a lot of games to compare it to and this is true. Yes most people who regularly play games can enjoy Bethesda games too but they don't owe their success to that audience cause if they did they would stop selling reskinned skyrim.
