As gamers get closer to the end of 2020; gamers are looking forward to the release of new gaming consoles as well as several new games to enjoy. The end of the year also causes many gamers to look ahead to 2021 and in a new Opinion Piece; Skewed and Reviewed looks at announced games that have been very light on news that fans are eager for updates on and the possible reasons behind the silence.
Rockstar Games founder Dan Houser's new studio, Absurd Ventures, is currently working on a AAA open world action adventure game.
I'm really curious to see what he's going to do. It seems like a GTA-style game, but I wonder how it'll differentiate itself.
A new studio making a AAA game. Yea, that'll go well. I still think new studios should only make small games for a few years to build up teamwork and trust within.
If it weren't one of the founder's of one of the most prolific open-world game studios, I would agree.
Digital Foundry : Bethesda's Starfield was generally a well-regarded RPG, but the game's 30fps target on consoles was the subject of some controversy. The game's massive scope arguably justified that 30fps refresh rate, with only high-end PCs capable of hitting 60fps and higher, but now Bethesda has changed course and opened the floodgates on Xbox Series X consoles following significant optimisation work. Players can now independently select performance and visuals modes at arbitrary frame-rates. How exactly do these new combinations fare, and is 60fps really a possibility after it was explicitly ruled out before?
900p in performance mode for SX.... I'd assume a 5pro would at least hit 1080p if not more.
It’s a point, click and load game. Stop with all the massive scale bullshit. Only thing massive is the number of junk items they decided to throw in the game.
Its not BS. This games running more systems than virtually any AAA game. Why else do you think it has loading screens? Besides, the clutter has been apart of their DNA for decades at this point. There are other games out there for people that dont care about that kind of stuff.
Probably because it's been created on a very outdated engine that isn't designed to fully utilise current gen abilities.
You've only got to look at what rockstar games achieve with their releases.
Starfield’s latest update is here and it’s bringing several new features with it!
