This weekend was all Monster Hunter Wilds for me. Beat the Omega fight about 15 times and beat the Savage Omega fight once which was crazy intense. Got his armour set and great sword crafted now. Fun Halloween festival. Looking forward to the upcoming Christmas one next month.
7 years after it was announced, The Elder Scrolls 6 is ‘still a long way off’, Todd Howard says
Speaking to GQ, Howard said the game is "still a long way off", adding: "I'm preaching patience. I don't want fans to feel anxious."
Howard also noted that he doesn't like announcing release dates for games then having players wait a long time for that date to arrive.
"I like to just announce stuff and release it," he explained. "My perfect version – and I'm not saying this is going to happen – is that it's going to be a while and then, one day, the game will just appear."
Asked if he wanted Bethesda to shadow-drop The Elder Scrolls 6 like it did with Oblivion Remastered, he replied: "You might say that was a test run. It worked out well."
Elsewhere in the interview, Howard claimed that Bethesda Game Studios has "hundreds of people on Fallout right now, with 76 and some other things we're doing".
One of the "other things" Howard is referring to, VGC understands, is a remaster of Fallout 3, similar to this year's The Elder Scrolls Oblivion: Remastered.

Has Hitman ever been described as a walking Simulator? Because it feels like one.
Ive never walked so much in my life, you have to keep walking until you find that one thing that makes an Assassination plausible. It can feel endless sometimes.
GTA 6 has been content complete for a while but needs a year of polish says Tom Henderson.
Sony says Destiny 2 has underperformed and has some $200m impairment charge against Bungie.
Switch 2 game sales are smaller compared to switch 1.
Bloomberg says Switch 1 sold 3 games per console at launch. Switch 2 has sold 2 games per console, they say because of backwards compatibility.
I'd say Mario Kart being bundled didn't help.
What Switch 2 games have you bought so far?
I have:
Mario Kart World
Donkey Kong Bananza
Hogwarts legacy
Star Wars Outlaws
Cyberpunk 2077
Fast Fusion Racing
Hitman World of Assassination
But also bought several cheaper switch 1 games on the eShop
I’m sure the games costing more isn’t helping at all. Here many of the Switch 2 games are $100+. Only got two Switch 2 games myself. Mario Kart World which was bundled and Donkey Kong Bananza. Also bought Mario Galaxy bundle but that’s classified as a Switch 1 game.
I agree with Reggie. I too am surprised that Microsoft hasn’t announced more games for the Switch 2 already.
Apparently Nintendo didn't send them devkits early enough.
I think they still viewed MS as a strategic opponent in some way. So they maybe didn't want Switch 2 info leaking out early.
And entrusted the devkits to the usual 3rd parties. Microsoft also didn't start making noises about their multiplatform strategy early enough for Nintendo to realise it was real and happening.
Played and finished Luigi's Mansion this weekend. Gg, why don't you play it again?

Is Fallout more popular than the Elder Scrolls?
Help us AI!
Al who? Al Bundy? I believe he could do it. He once scored four touchdowns in a single game.
I prefer Elder Scrolls.
I know the Fallout series is hot right now. But as a game series is Fallout more popular?

I tried this site for the wallpapers, it works, so much good artwork.

Maybe it's because a lot of those switch 2 games are ports already out on other systems for months or years?
I bought them because I don't own any other systems.
Yeah, I’m sure that’s a factor as well.

I love the series but I'm all Octopath-ed out 🏧
Yakuza Kiwami 1 and 2 Switch 2 out tomorrow at half price £25 each and bundled together for an extra discount.
I was going to get the GKCs because they were the same price but they were taken off amazon and marked as unavailable.
I nabbed both for around $4 each
