That’s fair. I bought it because it is the one I played the least and wanted to try and actually beat the story. I’m still in the intro and just picked up my first gear but in that small time frame my assessment is the text is unpolished with grammatical errors, the character creator is still clunky, and their smart animation for dialog needs work. I seriously think this is all just a tech demo for the engineers to get used to the unholy union of unreal and gamebryo so they can use the experience in the work for ES6. I’ll still play this though but I’ll be critical of it the whole way lol

Not surprising. Known commodity with improvements plus people have been waiting for ES6 for ages. Also there aren’t a ton of big open world adventure games being released right now that gives the same kind of experience. People want escapism and games like ES and Baldurs Gate are great for that.

It’s interesting my friends kid is 13. A couple of years ago they were able to take a trip across country to visit their online friends that they spend all their time with in games. Those kids are all girls. This life style truly isn’t exclusive to one gender. The father works a 9-5 and the mother is a stay at home mom with some side hustles for extra cash. Their kid seems to be kind but who knows what she is really getting into online. This world is like a caricature of itself.

They have a patent on a damn potato?

That’s an unprocessed vegetable. Get rid of them.

Yes I remember reading about this a while back. It’s one of the main reasons thorium rectors are so much safer.

This is how you drive people to eat fast food.

My theory is getting more engineers familiar with the unified UE5 and Gamebryo. This has likely been in the works before ESVI was the primary focus for the bulk of the team and many of those engineers were reassigned to ESVI as this neared completion.

This is the kind of shit so much of the US population has no clue about because it is highly repressed by the government. There is a reason this current administration wants to make it illegal to criticize the government

It’s online with divisive rhetoric meant to drive US isolationism

Hate has been actively cultivated online through various psyop campaigns over the years. It may have started offline but it skyrocketed with the growth of the internet to specifically destabilize the US.

This is by design. They want to destabilize the US. There is a lot of money and influence in it for them
