Microsoft has been aggressively picking up popular studios in an attempt to beef up their Game Pass service and have more first-party franchises. Their most recent, and most shocking, purchase saw them picking up Bethesda and ZeniMax, which came with several development studios and popular IPs like Fallout, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Elder Scrolls, Doom, and Wolfenstein.
Time willꦕ tell what this actually means for the aforementioned series other than potential exclusivity and day one releases on Game Pass, but gamers have already quickly gotten to work processing this news the only way the Internet knows how; by crafting hilarious memes ♔poking fun at all sides of the situation.
10 🅺 Betteꦅr Start Investing In A Series X
One wonders what Sony must be thinking at this moment. Fallout and The Elder Scrolls have huge legions of fans who will go anywhere they go. If Microsoft does not want future games in these franchises 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:to come out on PlayStation 5, then they will not release on the platform. How many Sony fans wi🍎ll invest in a Series S or X or at least start beefing up their PCsღ?
9 📖 Take All The Good And All The Bad
No developer stays in the game as long 🌱as Bethesda without releasing a few duds. The main difference in Bethesda's case is how the dud continues to live on and the publisher acts like nothing is wrong.
Now this polarizing multiplayer title is also Microsoft's burden. They may receive Doom and Wolfenstein, but they also have to take Fallout 76, a game which probably will not go away 𓆏anytime soon.
8 ꦬ He Would Sell Skyrim To A Nord
One running joke among fans of the publisher is the sheer amount of times Skyrim has been re-released. It is somewhat of a weird quip, however, since no one makes the same remarks about the numerous editions of Street Fighter II or its se꧂quels out on the market. Regardless, Todd Howard has no reason to try and sell it anymore, since Microsoft just boug๊ht is for almost eight billion dollars.
7 So Now They're Buying Towns!? 🌼 ♕
Anybody from this small Welsh town who is not a gamer must have been mighty confused when they heard Microsoft purchased Bethesda. What was their first thought? Did they think the town would be turned into a bunch of factories to manufacture computers? Certainly some Xbox fans were disappoiജnted upon learning this acquisition referred to the publisher, and not the town.
6 But Now They Ar♚e The Same ♒
After Fallout: New Vegas, many assume there to be some sort of animosity between Obsidian and Bethesda. Obsidian's take on the modern Fallout formula is often considered the best entry in the franchise, but is plagued by technical issues coming from a rushed development. Obsidian gets the last laugh, though, as Bethesda is now conquered by Microsoft. Ultimately, one should coꦐnsider the acquisition more a of a partnership.
5 Always Bet On Frank Reynolds𓄧
Whenever something wild, unexpected, and potentially dangerous goes down in any sphere, a meme using Frank Reynolds from It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia is always the appropriate response. While Microsoft's most recent move is probably not a vindictive play at Sony for keeping their first-party studios mainly away from PC, one could certainly make an argument for it,168澳洲幸运5开奖网: especially since Demon's Souls is currently not expected to release anywhere else other than PlayStatiꦓon 5.
4 ꦺ This Is The Future Micros෴oft Wants
In order to achieve brand synergy, do not be surprised if the next Fallout's Pip-Boy runs on a Microsoft Operating System. Considering tඣhe problems some have with Windows, the player's device in game might run into the same error message. Honestly though, it would be the least of the player's technical issues if future Bethesda games still come packed in with the same amount of bugs and glitches for which they are infamously known.
3 PC Gamers Are Safe 💜 🐻
Some Sony fans might be seriously worried about their prospects at playing the next Fallout and Elder Scrolls. Howeve✃r, those who also have a PC wit🌞h the right specs feel no difference.
While playing on a console offers some convenience, the PC offers more options and more in-depth mod support for those interested in community-built content. Console only players should not feel too hopeless, since in this day and age even first-party games have the possibility of𝔉 going multiplatform.
2 I Am Once Again Asking�🦂� You For New Vegas 2
This new acquisition means a lot for Xbox players. The above photo shows mounting excitement as politician Bernie Sanders realizes all the possibilities for Bethesda and Microsoft, culminating in a wish for Fallout: New Vegas 2. Even PlayStation owners would consider this buyout worth it if it means giving Obsidian another shot at the Fallout franchise.
1 ♎ 🍸 Now You Will Never Not Buy Skyrim
Just when people insisted they were done buying Skyrim, Todd Howard found a way to make people buy the fifth numbered Elder Scrolls game once a month forever. As long as one is subscribed to Ga🌞me Pass, they will continue purchasing the game. As funny and frustrating as this reselling of a nine year old game is to some people, there are certainly worse games one could have in their collection ten times over.
