Wrong, Skyrim sold over 30 million copies in 2016, that's 5 years after the release on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
In 2016 they released the Special Edition, in 2017 the NSW version and Skyrim VR.
It is most likely at 35-40 million sold copies by now, by far the best selling RPG of all time.

PS5 is going to do fine, but yes Starfield and TES6 exclusive to Xbox (on consoles) are going to be system seller for the "Console Bethesda fans" and MS will move some units thanks to these games, but at the end of the day, they are never going to match PS5 units WW for a lot of reason. Doing better than Xbox One is a given, i mean, unless they do worse than Xbox One in both software and hardware, it's easy to achieve, but PS5 will lead by units without a lot of issues.
Yeah, I'm not sure how you can look at Astro, Miles, Sackboy, Demon"s Souls, Ratchet, Destruction AllStars, Gran Turismo, Horizon Forbidden West and Returnal and conclude they're lacking variety.
As I said, it doesn't necessarily mean that there is no state of play, because capcom have a history of doing a digital event following a state of play, but in general they have transitioned to individual streams lately with the SFV stream and then the monster hunter rise stream this year.
They have variety but at the end of the days some games just sell more than others .
You not going to spending millions of dollars on marketing something that only going to sell a certain amount .
Marketing helps but if you spend to much it end up making the ROI not worth it.
Wonder what happened to it.
Been years since we had new information about the game.
They even trademarked the beta or demo, something like that.
True, it looks like a new competitor in dark fantasy RPG genre. And we could even add Project Athia.
Moreover, maybe Pragmata looks and play similar to Starfield and ME. We still don't know much about these future games.
I'm pretty sure the numerous delays to granblue fantasy relink just meant that this game is barely getting worked on as dev are working on finishing that game... in 2 years.
Basically, I don't expect it before Elder Scrolls VI lol
Speaking of which, for anyone that doubts it's still in development, Cygames posted its Cyllista Game Engine presentation from CEDEC 2020 on October 8, 2020, the end of which reads: "At Cygames, we are currently recruiting staff to work with us on developing the Cyllista Game Engine, as well as to create Project Awakening, the first game built on the Cyllista Game Engine. For details, click here."

WRONG!!! The game absolutely did not sell 30 million copies in one year are you kidding me!?😂 That number was given in an 2016 interview for total sales up until that point.
Skyrim came out in 2011, it's 2021.. I said it took 10 years to sell 30+ million copies of the game. And for somebody screaming wrong you still don't have a definitive number either.
Dragon's Dogma 2 is in development according to the data leaks iirc. 2022 maybe?
Edit: Here it is: https://www.dualshockers.com/dragons-dogma-2-capcom-in-development/
Most likely all hands on deck for grand blue RPG and then we might get some info about it.
Things most likely change with COVID and Grand Blue being internally develop.
At least the game will most likely skip the PS4.
I still find it hard to believe the game was ever going to look like this on the PS4.
oops i missed as of 2016
I thought you said Skyrim only sold 30 million copies in 10 years
2023*
To have a definitive number you have to ask Bethesda, three RPGs have exceeded 30 million copies so far, but we don't know by how much, still, we have a linkedin profile claiming that Skyrim is the best selling RPG of all time.
Diablo III did 30+ million (last sales update was in 2015)
Skyrim did 30 million (last sales update was in 2016)
TW3 did 29 million (last sales update was in 2019)
It's all good. It's no diss to TES, just that God of War is a beast too when talking heavy hitters.
I think they are still in the early days of performance and motion capture, it's a late 2022~2023 title probably.
Killzone wasn't even the best FPS from Sony.
My new avatar, thanks Sony 😫😔
Resistance will always hold that crown.
GoW is my 2018 GOTY and of my favourite games this gen, ain't going to shit on it lol
2022-2023 would be a nice release window. I checked the source and they stated fiscal year 2022, but who knows if it gets delays from that internal target.
Honestly I don't mind THAT much Sony not doing a FPS, this is a genre that you need to do something different or go all in IMO, RPG is a genre that outside of the PC sphere is in such a "nhe" place for me, I hope one of the studios try to do one.
I would like more if Sony made a Fighting game.
Not a mascot one.
TES6 seems like a distant thought at this point in a sense that who knows if we even get that game during this generation. I'm more interested to see Starfield right now cause at least that game should not be too far away from release.
Not a fighting game fan 😬
And this also looks like a hard genre to try nowadays, what were the big new fighting game IPs this gen?
There are none.
But Nitendo has Smash and MS has KI. It would be awesome to see Sony get their own fighting game.
Unless you're doing Superbowl ads or similar, I don't think any marketing is too much. Look at Xenoblade Chronicles 2, once it came out and people found its gameplay loop is centered around collecting weapons who double as girls calling you their master(creepy ass shit) for the combat, it still kept selling to a modest 2 million. Gravity Rush and Concrete Genie, maybe even The Last Guardian have infinitely more presentable premises(a girl who controls gravity and fights monsters) but as far as I know neither was even able to hit 1 milion+. XC2 didn't keep selling to 2 million just because it's a sequel to XC. How's Sony going to know more marketing won't help games like those if they don't try?

I wonder which developer Sony could use for that? Hire Capcom's Street Fighter team to make an exclusive new IP after SF6?
Yoshinori Ono isn't working at any studio as far we know.
He could join Sony and working on one.
I honestly don't know what people want Sony to do a few months after MS bought Bethesda. Like, that isn't enough time for them to react and start going on an acquiring spree. Bethesda didnt happen over night, and future acquisitions they want to do don't happen overnight, and any plans Sony might have don't happen overnight.
Okay, and Xbox is missing third person action games. When is the last time they had a TLOU or Uncharted level game in their history? Never.
Appreciate what Sony has. Exclusives mean nothing if they suck
3 years ago, around Christmas, they sold a 1 year sub here in Germany for ~33€. I bought a couple of them and now I have a sub until 2024.
Good move, because since then we never got a similar deal again.
That won't age well.
The PS5 is gonna sell another 100M+. If you thought the PS4 was a monster, you better strap yourself in.
TES6 will come out after 2024. There won't be PS4 cross-gen titles at this point
The only chance of Starfield being crossgen is a 2021 release which I pretty much doubt will happen.
I think the best you can do to keep your expectations in check, is to assume all future Bethesda games will be full Xbox exclusives. If they also get released on PS5, great, but that shouldn't be your expectation because you're most likely gonna get burned.
