So the next greatest game will just be “around the corner” and “nearly complete” every year for decades then?

pivot_root,

Don’t forget, he knows more about manufacturing game development than anyone currently alive on earth.

Ephera,

I mean, it sounds like he might’ve found the industry that really matches his way of not working.

distantsounds,

Him and Todd Howard would get along

UpperBroccoli,

I know Todd gets a lot of hate, and some of it is deserved, but… c’mon. Just no.

Then let’s get ready for a ww2 game where you save Nazis instead of killing them. And then you shoot the American troops and call them “woke libs” /s

…wait, actually this has the potential to be amazing! I remember the early days of online gaming, and gamers for the most part were some of the most welcoming and friendly people I’ve ever been around.

Something changed, and ‘gamer’ became a toxic word, and all but niche gaming communities kinda went to shit.

If Elon makes some cringe-ass MMO or something, it will act as a sponge to soak up all the toxic assholes from other gaming communities.

Do it.

Good thing I’ve always wondered “what if someone did an Activision, but worse?”

Talented people fail to make a career in gaming. Idc how many mines his daddy owned, he’s not going to make a good game. Although we should encourage him to do it. Making games would obviously waste the time he uses to harass people.

frunch,

Let’s not forget: he’s not making shit. He’s gonna pay some poor fucks a pittance (if he decides to pay them at all) to make a lousy fps or whatever

vaultdweller013,

Sure but he is also a micromanaging dipshit, the more bullshit he has the less focused he is overall.

The good thing about this is that all his money can’t buy a good result. Each game has to stand on its own two feet. If it costs millions to make, and still sucks, it will sink without a trace.

I can’t even begin to imagine how fucking lame and cringe a game made by Elon Musk would be. Much less how buggy and unplayable.

glimse,

You play as doge and collect dogecoins to spend on memes. The game is called X and it runs a crypto miner on your gpu when you play it (you get coins in game, Elon gets coins in real life).

You can pay for X premium for $10/month which unlocks cosmetics and lets you access the members-only chatroom

pivot_root,

The cosmetics are all unique and non-fungible, and can be resold to other X premium users for real-world money in the form of credit that can be used to buy different tokens cosmetics.

Snowclone,

Considering the growth he’s experienced from his 20s to now, he’ll probably try and make a Quake 2 clone.

Zorque, do gaming w Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'

Doesn’t he know Epic Games studio already exists? The market for grand-standing self-righteous game-makers is pretty tapped at this point.

pivot_root,

They might actually get along. The CEOs of both happen to be hypocritical asswipes who think providing a worse product and complaining about competition will give them the monopoly they’re pretending to not want.

Payday 4: stealing from gamers

Grandwolf319, do gaming w Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'

I mean, sure, go ahead.

It’s one of the most benign things he does and it’s not like it’s gonna affect existing good game.

pdxfed, do gaming w Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'

Forget what these folks say; it’s all an excuse to start companies that can be awarded no-bid contracts from the government they “want to dismantle”

Musk should buy Bethesda. Gut it like he gutted Twitter. Start development on something random – the Elder Scrolls VI: Kingdom of Doge.

When it comes out, it will be a horrible, poorly made mess. Just like a regular Bethesda game but extra enshittified. He can charge extra for it to make it seem super premium.

People will eat it up.

Worked for Tesla.

Edit: /s obvs

pennomi,

God, that’s how you end up with Skyrim, but endless AI generated quests with NO continuity or sense whatsoever.

Snowclone,

I mean… daggerfall kinda did that.

SelfProgrammed, do gaming w Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'

He should make a meta verse. I still won’t buy it, but having 2 of them completely fall flat because a billionaire thought they knew what entertainment was would almost be as funny as that time Sony re-released Morbius in theaters.
