Sure thing, here’s my take on it:
—
You know what’s wild? Rumors are flying around that Fallout 5 is finally getting the green light. Jez Cordon from Windows Central spills that Zenimax is all in on this, which might mean curtains for Project Blackbird — you know, that MMO from the Elder Scrolls Online team. If this really pans out, Bethesda fans are gonna be in for a ride.
But hey, Fallout 5 starting up is big news, right? It’s been ages since we had a proper single-player Fallout game. Like, wasn’t it kind of obvious they’d eventually circle back? And yet, the timing of this is… bizarre, to say the least. I mean, Bethesda’s been all about that Starfield life, which hasn’t even hit the two-year mark. Everyone figured Starfield would be their main squeeze for a while. Yet here we are, maybe seeing the last nail in that very shiny Starfield coffin.
How’s Starfield doing anyway? Not great, if I’m gonna be completely honest. Fans love it, sure, but it didn’t become the cultural explosion folks were hoping for. I mean, it’s no Skyrim. But who knows? Maybe some wild DLC will change things, though the vibe’s not exactly hopeful.
Also, what’s up with that Shattered Space DLC? It was hyped to the max – but then… crickets. Bethesda promised big stuff in 2025, yet nada. That Xbox event this June was supposed to be Starfield’s big moment, but nah, didn’t show. People are speculating Bethesda’s ditching the Starfield DLC dreams. But who really knows, right?
The way I see it, Fallout 5 isn’t swooping in randomly. Nope. It’s like, Starfield’s floundering, and maybe spinning resources towards Fallout makes pure business sense. Everyone’s loving Fallout 76 now, and that TV show? Giving the series some serious street cred. Starfield, on the other hand, it’s like it’s stuck out there in the cold, unable to catch fire. Guess the bigwigs at ZeniMax and Microsoft see Fallout 5 as a surefire hit. Probably feels like a safer bet than dwelling on the woes of Starfield.
Anyway — whoops, got sidetracked there. Time will tell if Fallout 5 is the big comeback story Bethesda needs. But man, it’s got me curious about how this will all shake out.
