    Neither studio has impressed me in a long time, especially Bethesda, and that was before gutting the team and promising more layoffs of the next 12 months. Unhappy skeleton crew and they’re doing engine upgrades.

      They’re not doing engine upgrades. They’re throwing in more graphics (visual effects, higher resolution assets) and bolting on some features, but the core engine has barely changed.

        First, those are all engine upgrades. What do you think an engine is? Second, it has barely changed from when? Morrowind? It’s essentially an entirely different engine. Starfield? How would you know?

        Assuming they are doing the work and haven’t outsourced it to an external company like they did with Fallout 76
