again, the issue wasn't about the game being bad.

It was hyped to be something incredible and defining for this gen. It wasn't.
This is the dumb ass sony stan strategy.

Y’all do the hyping just to claim whatever game don’t live up to some arbitrary nonsense you made up in the first place.

Number 1 single player game on the year in the fortnight era seems like a pretty hefty achievement, for any game.

And the game ain’t even get its mod support or DLC/Updates etc.

Y’all gone be trying to convince yourselves this game is a terrible failure for years to come :banderas:

Hol up, Sony Stan's just told me in another thread that single player games don't make it to most played and that's why Sony masterpieces aren't there...

Meanwhile this 7/10 day 1 PC release and gamepass title is.
One of the most hyped games of the year on a subscription service with close to 30 million subs. Those other games you're comparing it to people actually had to buy to even play. You go back and look at the reception it got on even Steam and it tuns out a lot of people played Starfield and either didn't like it or bounced off it. The game came and went pretty fast. It squeezed a lot into about that first month when it came out and after then faded.

So go ahead and continue with the mischaracterization that a lot of people many of which didn't have to spend money to play did play the game as wide approval of the game. In reality it was a flash in the pan.

I like how the fact that Starfield is the 'only single player game on the list' ON CONSOLE continues to be looked past. This isn't a total list, this is a specific list and people still jumping out a window acting like the mid game wasn't mid.
But worse: the game didn't chart on the system that will have the most mod support available for it.

Why?

Because it can't be modded the way the previous games could in terms of functionality. Which means all this victory lap bullshyt is moot, because the thing that normally buoys Bethesda games is the very mod community that has collectively decided to not give a shyt about this game. Which means we have evidence it'll age worse than Skyrim and the game hasn't even been out a year

But this was made to be a bait thread and was never a thread made in good faith, so fukk it; go off :yeshrug:

Not sure why this matters so much to you. Each platform has its most popular games. Starfiled is the only single player game on ANY of those lists.

Sony be giving away their first party games FOR FREE. Gamepass cost money.

Find another angle my guy :ufdup:

And people bounced off it so hard. It’s top ten most played game on the year as a single player title.

Crazy :wow:

That game is fukking boring that quickly. No replay value. The characters are flat out bored and blank, no memorable moments at all in this game.

nikka bought 3 yrs of GP and still pirated it just to play it early, only to put that bytch down the first day:francis: I hope BGS finds that magic again one day

People willing going for these pay to play online multiplayer type games are whats holding the industry back.
studios logically want to get a piece of that pie and it comes at the expense of classic single player stories.
Wish they all at least took the rockstar games approach and dedicated real care into crafting a game, before adding an online multiplayer mode separately.
GTA6 will be very telling. The first game under full development since GTAO took off (RDR2 was already well underway).

We already saw how R* changed the continued development of GTAV SP once the money started rolling in
