About 100 million. Probably more, since they had a whole thing with animated episodes to tell the lore already produced.

Videogame execs: Nobody wants singleplayer games! Let’s greenlight another PvP shooter!
I think it’s a little odd the article omits the fact that Yanis Varoufakis was also the Greek minister of finance for quite a while.
Guardians of the Galaxy was a good game that didn’t sell.
I would love to see them do sci-fi. Imagine something like Mass Effect from Larian…
The campaign of the first one is pretty short (once you figured out good strategies for your people’s survival).
I’m waiting till the modders have fixed the more glaring issues, as usual.
Execs call that “next CEO’s problem” while they plan how to spend the money from their golden parachutes.
This is the guy that’s largely responsible for reality TV taking over all channels Discovery owns, so yeah. This was sadly to be expected.
Sounds a lot like Avengers, a good 10 hour campaign weighed down by grindy bullshit.
That got hamstrung by the “next gen” update, unless Bethesda releases another large update of FO4 in the future (unlikely), they should be fine.
AI is the new procedural generation, in that it will be touted as making the games more real and immersive but really only makes them boring and repetitive, thus stressing the importance of genuine creative handcrafting. I’m looking forward to smaller studios selling their games with a “no AI” pitch in a few years.
Meanwhile, the last patch for the multiplayer part of the game has ruined the singleplayer part, you know, the actual game.
Well, they do want to turn the Hogwarts sequel into a live service game…
I mean, Larian is pretty much that. Instead of just doing Baldur’s Gate 4 although Hasbro fired all their contact people and probably would have urged Larian to rush a sequel, they are instead during an IP of their own next and refuse to go public and/or get bought.
Oh it does, in the form.of huge bonuses for the idiots that decided it.
Yeah, but looking at the games industry right now, we’ll likely have enough time for older games soon because new ones don’t come out anymore (or are GAAS trainwrecks).
Yep, that’s why I’m looking forward to Drew’s new game Exodus instead of this. But hey, maybe both are good, there’s Room for more than one action sci-fi RPG.
Yeah, Avatar was the same to me. Probably one of the most beautiful environments in an open world game, but every character was a walking cliché and the dialogue cringy and boring. Which is at least on brand for Avatar I guess.
