The funny thing is that the Stormcloak rebellion started because they wanted to worship the founder of the Empire...

I really liked how Avowed added an optional sort of glossary for terms, people, events, locations, etc., so if you were lost you could always open it and check what the npc was referring to.

Preproduction does not mean they're making the game, it means they are planning to do it.

They said as much in 2018 or whereabouts: first Fallout 76, then Starfield, then TESVI. Starfield was released in 2023, plus the DLC in 2024... if you do the math, at the earliest, TESVI began production in late 2023 or early 2024. So 2 years at best, that's not so long ago.

so long? they just started last year, what you mean "so long"?

Me too: Skyrim was a disappointment in 2011 because it added nothing new other than fixing potato faces and slightly better graphics. Its strength was appealing to casuals. Starfield at least added new RPG mechanics. If we get more Starfield-like RPG mechanics and less Skyrim's I'll call it a win.

They already explained why, 7 or so years ago: because people kept pestering them about it. They also were very clear form the very beginning: we do Fallout 76, then Starfield, only then TES6.

You can relax while doing nothing both in Starfield and Skyrim, whether fishing or planet walking, that's pretty much up to you. What I meant is, I'd rather have a TES6 that incorporates true RPG mechanics as opposed to the dumbed-down casual action-adventure elements that Skyrim gave us.

Honestly, I'd rather have a Starfield-like TES6 than a Skyrim-like.

is there an option to turn on/off the radio without having to go to the menu, like a key or something? or that the radio shuts off when there's dialogue, and resumes after exiting dialogue?

"Over the past two years, executives at the Seattle-based software giant have set an across-the-board goal of 30% “accountability margins,”"
does this mean it is a Microsoft-wide mandate, or only specific for Xbox? The first one would imply MS is not targeting Xbox specifically after ABK, would it?

SCOOP: For the last two years, Microsoft has pushed Xbox to hit profit margins of 30%, an ambitious target that's far higher than the industry average.
This chase for profit has led Xbox to raise prices, cut thousands of jobs, and rethink everything.

Put the "ad" in "ad nauseum"! The Popup Gun is literally shotgun marketing—a break-action shotgun that fires aggressive advertising drones to capture your target market. It automatically reloads whenever an ad drone dies, but manually reloading causes the ad drones to explode. #TheOuterWorlds2
