If a supposed sure thing like Starfield can’t even stick the landing after all this work and delays to get it right, what hope do those other, less fleshed-out projects have? It may not be a fair narrative, as each project is different, but it will indeed by the narrative, and one that would be hard to refute.

Even more than Redfall, it would indicate Microsoft does not know how to manage either old or new first party partners. That would be two games out of the Bethesda purchase launching poorly from studios normally known for practically guaranteed hits. And it would then project confidence that those other, future big games could pan out as well if Microsoft has figured out first party management to some degree. Starfield could be a mass seller, well not a mass “seller” because of a Game Pass launch, but a big win.
If Starfield is a success, it will break the narrative that Xbox, at least through its major developer purchases, cannot produce a solid hit.

There are other games too, Hellblade 2 and such, and other early wins, Forza and Flight Simulator and Hi-Fi Rush, but Starfield is…The Big One. While everyone hopes they turn out well, it’s hard to argue that any of them, particularly two franchise reboots, are bigger and more important than Bethesda’s first major mainline single player game since Fallout 4. The “big trinity” of promised future Xbox releases are Perfect Dark, Fable and Avowed, all of which have shown nothing but tiny teasers, if that, despite being announced a long while ago.

Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy.Then, you should be able to agree that Starfield is likely a bigger endeavor than anything coming after it.

But if this was a Cyberpunk-level launch I would be totally shocked, as I just don’t think that’s what a well-earned reputation of two decades of massive success indicates.įollow me on Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. I’m sure launch will be somewhat rough and there will be the usual large slate of goofy Bethesda bugs. Microsoft ownership or not, it is genuinely hard to believe that Starfield will be just some sort of wild miss. Sure, it’s true that Redfall was a huge miss for Arkane, a studio that also made pretty great games otherwise, but Arkane is not Bethesda Game Studios, which has made not just great games, but some of the biggest classics in the history of the industry.
It did not work, and now they’re back to what they know with the single player Starfield.
The point here is that there is one bad game listed here, Fallout 76, but A) it got much better in time and B) it was a wild departure into attempting to be a multiplayer survival MMO far different than anything Bethesda had done. The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind (89 metascore) – We’re time traveling to a place when metacritic was barely even a thing, but Morrowind was the game that inspired the massive growth of the Elder Scrolls series into what it is today, and did so by making a killer RPG within the constraints of 2002-era hardware.
