I've never understood the need for gamers to get into specific game tribes and compete with other game tribes. I just want good games period. Why would I care if BG3 tops 1 million concurrent users and Starfield doesn't or reverse? That won't affect me in the slightest. I just want both to be good.
I want good games, which is why I don't like Bethesda.
Their "open world" games feel almost like a mockery. Fallout 4 is a good example.
The main hub "city" has 52 npcs. It just destroys immersion, there shouldn't even be raiders in the game because there is no one to raid... Skyrim had similar issues.
Meanwhile of you go play New Vagas is actually feel like a living world.
Bethesda needs to do better imo the Witcher 3 was Skyrim but better in every way.
