Gotta love Bethesda going all "You think you want it, but you really don't." Like Blizzard back in the days.
I have to admit, I find the entire thing immensely entertaining.
What game did Blizzard try this with? I'm just too ignorant about their games beyond Warcraft and Diablo, or was it that WoW add-on that killed WoW popularity back in the days?
It was about WoW Classic. Here's the clip
But in the end WoW Classic did indeed become a thing.
So, they were right about knowing better, after all 😉
I actually think that this is a marketing fallacy some (?) big corporations use to create a self fulfilling prophecy of what people want. Wery rarely is it really a novel thing that just requires users to understand how good it is, very often it's just gaslighting
In Bethesdas case, they've been going down this road for a while now and have just refused to listened to any criticism along the way.
Eventually that turned into F76 and Starfield.
The fact that they are telling people "they are wrong for finding the game boring" is funny. But that Beth won't learn anything from this is just sad.
