Tons of people still play Skyrim.
Something tells me that, in 10 years, few if any will still be playing Starfield.
do people play it now? never hear about it anymore.
According to SteamDB: [edit:Starfield has] around 10k every day which is about the same as Hogwarts Legacy, Bloons TD6, and No man's Sky
Which version is that? The original Skyrim (aka oldrim) isn't even purchasable on steam and hidden unless you bought it back then. But some people still play that because some old mods only support oldrim.
Special edition is the main one now. It's holding 30k very steadily since 2020 https://steamdb.info/app/489830/charts/#breakdown
Many of modders also moved to gog version, myself included. Because I can permanently version control on gog unlike stream.
I was talking about Starfield (i get how my comment isn't precise in that way now, i'll add an edit.. oops)
that's sad
Why? I just played the original Deus Ex like two months ago? Is that sad too?
the original deus ex is a masterpiece. you should be playing that every other year minimum. what the fuck kind of interpretation is that.
I'm overdue but I'm waiting for Surreal 98 for VR support.
Why? It has one of the biggest modding communities in gaming, so there's a lot for people to like about it still, assuming they're fine with modding it.
because it's slop. there are so many more games to play that have better writing, direction, characters, environments, exploration, combat, RPG elements, and overall design.
I don't get Bethesda fans insisting on modding bland ass games. you can play a game that's better to begin with.
the game is slop, everybody else playing it is wrong!
A blank canvas is easier to add to
