Considering the amount of actually skilled people Microsoft ejected into the sun, there’s a non zero chance this dlc was written with AI. Certainly in character for Todd

[@lemonynora]

That’s really depressing thought

[@dektarey4024]

I don't think that's the case. Todd Howard likes his radiant content, but that's the extent of his affinity with AI generation. The man is still passionate about the experience of making games, so i don't believe he'd greenlight this. The head writer - Emil Pagliarulo - however is another thing entirely. The man's said himself on multiple occasion the story doesn't matter in videogames. As head writer. If you want to blame anyone for the bad story, it's that guy. But it also doesn't feel AI generated. Much more made by an uninspired and burned-out writer than written by an AI.

[@michasokoowski6651]

​@@dektarey4024 Huh... a head writer saying that story doesn't matter? Well, if it doesn't matter why not just fire him?

[@some-replies]

I love Starfield but I hate playing it. Those 5 minute empty walks between POIs were the strong point of fallout and elder scrolls. In Starfield it's literally nothing for 5 minutes to the next copy pasted POI. No environmental storytelling. I love all the ingredients but can't stand the cake.

[@georgeofazgad2176]

Yep I remember travelling to markarth from whiterun, ended up getting drunk with some travellers, get attacked by a dragon, mauled by a bear and ended up in a Dwemer ruin hiding from falmers(was under levelled)

[@potatopotawto1412]

Sarah’s dialogue almost sounds like a writer desperately trying to narrate the area because the environment designers failed to design it. “It’s interesting how the building almost seem to point towards the sky.” “This area is filled with a sense of dread.” It’s like a DM trying to poorly set up an area.

[@expendableindigo9639]

[@bl00sadr]

The problem with a new Todd game, or new DLC to a Todd game, is that it is still a Todd game. This is why people make mods, to de-Todd them.

[@thientuongnguyen2564]

Then those mods are removed by Nexus for trying to de-Todd too hard. Then again, modders gave up on this Todd game and told him to make out with Emil instead.

[@ImOblivious]

20:52 you just finished saying that house varuun should be wiped out but the game doesn't even give you the option of doing it yourself. Starfield is a sneak peak of the slop that ES6 will be.

[@MausBastion]

Yeah, pretty much

[@obamabiden]

i also love how he says "that's crazy, surely you just hit your head, anyways im gonna ignore the excuse i just made and declare you our enemy forever" powerful writing

[@silentt8161]

i think its actually possible that they will listen and change the writing for the better in es6. if you actually look critically at starfield you'll realise they really made and expanded a lot of systems to make a really complex system, but then they made them so easy to either ignore or not feel anything from that it is invisible to players. i think this was an obvious response to skyrim and fallout's simplicity that they actually changed stuff, so it is possible that the same response for starfield will be addressed for es6. i'm not saying it will happen, I'm just saying its possible, but its also for the one thing that is impossibly hard for companies to change for some reason and thats having a good writer.

[@ImOblivious]

@@silentt8161 I'll believe that once they fire Emil. Even Skyrim suffered from the same level of on rails quest lines where it made unnecessary characters like Delphine essential until the very end. No one over there writes for contingencies and alternate paths. They write one track to the end of the quest and give you no options to complete how you want or even work against the interests of the quest designer. Emil is on record bragging about how Starfield is the best game they've made so that tells you all you need to know about the future of BGS games.

I don't understand how Todd & friends could think that a dlc about the snake-people would be a great idea. If I remember correctly the game itself had 3 Varuun in the first place. All 3 of them were insufferable in my opinion. And then Bethesda was like "give the people a whole planet of these weirdos, and ask for half the price of a full game for it" 🙄 This makes you really hopeful for the next Elder Scrolls game.

Before the DLC dropped one of the biggest complaints about the game was that the Snake People weren't actually around despite ostensibly being a major faction. I get that these are probably different groups but this didn't materialize out of no where.
