Bethesda as we know it is going through a major change. Today, Xbox and Bethesda sat down to talk about what this partnership means for the future. Phil Spencer was loud and clear about what to expect on NEW exclusives coming through Bethesda. Furthermore, Xbox and Bethesda have already entered the planning phase and slyly teased a summer event. Perhaps the two will be joining together for E3? That alongside BIG Game Pass additions and plenty more round out a much more informative breakdown of the future of Bethesda.

So Matty, guess what. I decided to pick up Oblivion since you know it has come to game pass, but low and behold it ain't the game of the year addition it's offer. It's offering the base game and you get to buy all of that DLC all over again. Now I have bought this game way more times than one ought to have. Including on PC where I was frustrated that I couldn't utilize a controller at least not easily. Even after trying so many ways to get it nigh playable. But I digress. I find this to be a bit disgraceful. At least for people who have game pass. Now I REALLY REALLY REALLY want an oblivion remake with more of a skyrim feel. There are so many things in Oblivion I like a hellavah lot more than Skyrim. Heck it even has a whodunit, which I never tire of. The Dark Brotherhood questline was so well done. The characters were well done. Not to glorify the game too much. The graphics can really use an overhaul and that kid at the Arena needs to be deadra fodder. Also while I LOVE the inventory screen it could probably use a rework. Then FINALLY the leveling. I had to take out pen and paper and micro manage my levels to make sure I didn't leveled exactly right or you'd miss out on stat points. That level of micromanagement in skill raising is a bit too extreme.
No I'm sorry we do know what goes on behind closed doors which is nothing because legally Microsoft and Xbox could not be involved in the company because they were not acquired
Matt……… BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY
PS5 users only have Sony to blame. It is all up to Sony if they wanna put Game Pass on their system or not. If they do not, then they'll not get any of Bethesda's games, it is that simple.
I much rather own the game than game pass
love your energy king
Been playing Morrowind and Oblivion all night, imma go on a Bethesda binge for the month now
Going to tell my family why I won’t be answering their calls for a while
Microsoft doesn't want or need Gamepass on the Playstation or the Nintendo. The app is going to roll out onto smart TVs via XCloud by the end of the year. The app will be on everything. Besides. Microsoft isn't going to want to share a piece of the pie with Sony or Nintendo.
And here is the truth of it. Sony would never allow it.either. They depend on the software sales and PSN subscriptions for sustainable income.
xbox is a system for SHOOTERS and RACERS. Not my cup of tea. Thats why they bought bethesda to try and “diversify their bonds”🤣 all i know is PS exlusives SLAUGHTER xbox exclusives and it will be a VERY LONG TIME before any ORIGINAL, NOT ON PLAYSTATION, TRIPLE A, Bethesda masterpiece to hit xbox this gen. Maybe at the end of the xbox x life. They should just start making games for xbox series Y. Look how long it took cyberpunk and is taking FF7 remake part 2. Yall are in for a LOOONNNG WAIT for this $8billion to return on investment. Its like yall just got KIM KARDASHIAN after PS5 already smashed in her prime🤣🤣🤣🤣
Here is the thing. Microsoft is creating a game development ecosystem where each studio works as its own entity. But under the XBox banner.
And Phil Spencer's vision is to not restrict games to people. Because like he said. His vision is to bring gaming to more people in many different ways than ever before.
It is ambitious. He wasn't talking 100 or 200 million people playing on the XBox platform. He literally said billions.
The Zenimax purchase probably started by Phil looking to acquire Zenimax's proprietary streaming software. And maybe the proprietary VR software that John Carmack tried to steal. And ended up with Microsoft saying, "F it. Let's just buy the whole damn thing"
Microsoft now has 23 development studios.
Sony currently has 15 studios. Soon to be 14 because they announced they will be shifting essential employees of Japan Studio into the ASOBI studio and shutting it down. And then if you think about it … it is 13 because their MLB the Show developer is no longer making that game exclusive for the Playstation anymore. MLB threatened to pull the license if they don't release the game on the XBox due to poor sales. So yes. Sony's MLB the Show studio is making games for all platforms including the XBox.
So Sony isn't doing well on the studio front
Yeah … take the, "We didn't discuss anything while the deal was going through" with a grain of salt. Phil Spencer admitted he talked to Todd everyday.
The thing Microsoft couldn't do legally was order shifts in production and tamper with the studios to change the valuation. Phil couldn't make public statements that directly influenced perception of the deal as again. It is manipulation and could change a companies valuation.
As for planning events. They were legally allowed to set up an event but chose not to. Because why spend a lot of time, resources and money planning an event when they sale could fall through at any moment.
Sick background
I was in denial. Now I’m excited. Time to get an Xbox Series X.
So glad i waited and didnt buy a ps5
Time made my indinepedent studio KhristianStudio and Project Angel Wings SCD Timeline
I dont think its that big of a deal. We will prob still be waiting 3 years for a new ES game, 4 years for a fallout, 2 years for the space one : / What honestly have microsoft got but ANOTHER skyrim remake?
Hate their games
I just hope everything will keep being available on PC. In fact, as a PC gamer, having Xbox titles makes any console choice rather easy. I usually just go with Sony. If I'm Sony though, I like at buying From Software. Now, that's a company that would make me ignore any possible exclusive from Xbox.
Problem with being a PC gamer, about he same age as Todd Howard is that game pass sucks. Bethesda doesn't help that.
I am a TES fan that owns ESO. I don't play ESO because any TES fan wouldn't. Game flat sucks and is a disservice to TES.
Fallout is too generic, so it sucks.
Dishonored, own it didn't finish. It sucks.
DOOM, own it and played it but DOOM Eternal was just more of the last game. Didn't finish.
Loved Far Cry 3 /4 /5 and New Dawn , but I own them so nobody will take it away when they want.
Playing the snot out of CP 2077, with hopes content will soon be added. But I own it. Nobody can take it away.
Fallout 3 was on game pass then they took it away. Posted the games after the buyout and Fallout 3 was still not on the list. I own it.
There is no subscription worth it. It is a rental fee and you own nothing. You may love the game but if they decide to rip it off the list…
Gamers say, "We want competition in the market because it benefits us."
Well, paying a subscription doesn't facilitate that. They make a game and it sucks, you still pay a monthly fee while you wait for the next release (it will be better, you tell yourself). No, they are getting paid either way and don't care. Look at Netflix, ain't worth $5 a month, $60 a year for the trash on there. Gaming is becoming the same way.
