You want Rockstar to go

Bethesda lmao. Naughty Dog, as woke as they might be, ar at least pushing the fucking technology forward and they have yet to be toppled in the animation department. Bethesda took 10? years to make an absolute dog shit of a space game.
 
Why From Software? Decided to go for Bethesda because they can't live on the goodwill from old games, F4 was meh, 76 was atrocious and Starfield was the promised 100/10 mega exclusive that never lived up to the hype

In the year 2025, FROM is so far above these other 3 lol.

They've released like 3-6 good games since these other devs have released 1. They can all go if it saves FROM.

Bethesda hasn't done shit for 15 years.
ND is going on 6.
Rockstar hasn't released anything in like 13.

In that time we've got Elden Ring and DLC, AC7, DS3, Sekiro. Not close.

If you look through this thread, a lot of people think they're overhyped and repetitive. I'm a huge fan of their stuff, but I'd be happy to see them diversify from the souls formula a bit more. AC VI was my favorite game of 2023. I'm glad they kept it as it's own thing.

Got a lot of NPCs too afraid to post they voted for ND.
After we got uncharted 4 dlc, aka lost legacy, back in august 2017 so in a span of 8 long years, we only got 1 new game from ND of questionable quality except graphics departament(tlou2), and we know blasian baldie stud sim will come out in 2027 so that will be 10 long years with just tlou2- 1 new game(no point counting remasters/remakes/pc ports and such).
If u dont consider that output utterly miserable, especially not for some 3rd rate dev studio but top of the top posterchild sony first party, i dunno what is, and i say it as big ND and playstation fan(atic).
 
How about I keep FromSoftware and the rest can go…because other than FROM I don't like none of the studio on that list.

Oblivion is one of my favorite games, but it has aged terribly.

I enjoyed both TLOU games, pretty solid games.

Starfield was ok at best (and it feels like from the Oblivion era), it could have been just a mistake but Bethesda saying they learnt from the feedback before releasing the first expansion and then it being trash made me lost any faith on them.

Honestly i don't care about Rockstar games at all anymore but they give the industry some good visibility so i'll leave them be.

Bethesda it is

From Software.

With a statement from Miyazaki saying that gamers want easier games, with the best graphics, cinematic cutscenes, yellow paint everywhere, and NPCs/characters outright telling you the puzzle solutions and exactly what to do next. Gamers want GaaS, MTXs, season passes, dailies and gacha mechanics..... there is no place in this industry and medium for From Software.
Elden Ring has sold 30 million.
 
Can't pick Bethesda because they make TES and Fallout and they might get good again one day,
Not Rockstar, i like GTA games.
i don't play either From Software games or Naughty Dog games, so i just picked one.
 
Comments - BETHESDA!
Voters - NAUGHTY DOG!

I am voting for ND because I really never cared for Tomb-Raiders cousin Uncharted, and I am standing by my opinion that TLOU 1/2 are just bad games.
 
Do we lose the back catalog, too? With the possible exception of From (though their weird MP direction these days isn't great), I can't say I'd mind any of these disappearing if we're just focused on what they're building now. It's mostly dreck.

Of course, if we're losing back catalog, too, then Rockstar becomes the easy choice. Gameplay-wise, they've really never published a good game outside of Max Payne 1 and 2.
 
Bethesda is now easily the worst of those four by a gigantic margin. No idea who the hell wants 6/10 and 7/10 games that in reality are 4/10 but game reviewing is not a linear scale.
You could probably take the entirety of Microsoft and it would still be the very worst on that list.

Rockstar has GTA 6 in the pipeline and the way human psychology works is that people fear what they might miss with it being so close. Gigantic mental sunken cost fallacy happening here. GTA VI is my most anticipated game too, but what good does it do to get one game every 15 years. If GTA VI had released last week the poll would just let Rockstar die. (not pointing any fingers. same goes for me too)

Naughty Dog is sadly the most polarizing even though it doesn't even have anything to do with the games, but people fighting an imaginary war on all fronts. Even on those fronts that aren't your enemy, but some stupid people manipulated you into believing that.
Still Naughty Dog had a bad 5 years after releasing the best game of all time, but this is mostly due to Jim Ryan being an absolute giga moron who was the worst thing that happened to PlayStation we are feeling the pain due to that. Pushing for shitty Gaas. Making Naughty Dog try to do a TLOU Gaas game, which I hope Neil Druckmann internally sabotaged and make Jim Ryan go.
I kinda can understand some people voting for Naughty Dog because of the super weak PS5 Generation, but ND are genuinely the best studio in the world. I know many of you hate Intergalatic because of the main character, but it will be another 10/10 Goty and many people will miss out simply because they just want to hate it and fulfill their prophecy of not even trying and shitting on it on online message boards instead.
It also is the only real exclusive Studio so it is pretty likely that Xbox and Nintendo or non PlayStation players in general were more inclined to vote for that making it an uneven poll.

From Software. Whoever picked this needs to get good. They are on a blast always have been and if you voted for them you are wrong. They saved gaming again after Gabe Newell did.
 
I'd get rid of Naughty Dog simply because I NEED Elder Scrolls 6 to be good.

I don't think I'll ever stop loving Souls titles.

Rockstar shouldn't even be on the list. GTA 6 is a world wide cultural event.

Rockstar and its entire history could be obliterated and I wouldn't blink. I do like oldschool Bethesda, Naughty Dog for the most part but I wouldn't be devastated if they were gone. I am a FromSoft fan so that would disappoint.
 
Bethesda - The Elder Scrolls VI is my most anticipated game right now.
FROM - Elden Ring is my #1 or #2 best game of all time.
Naughty Dog - Intergalactic is my most anticipated PS game.
Rockstar - RDR2 almost pushed me into depression when it was over because nothing else out there could match it.

NONE! I refuse to vote!
