Yeah, reminds me a bit of Fez. If we need to decipher the language, it would most probably be just substitution cipher on English, otherwise the game might become too complex, unless we just have to decipher a limited set of words.
Yeah, I read and watched some reviews, and I am very happy.
I think the gist of it is, that it’s a new Bethesda IP, it’s not Elder Scrolls, and it’s not Fall out. It doesn’t play exactly like those games. Looking forward to playing it whenever I get my Xbox 😀
“We’re literally stuck in a system where funding decides what gets made, everything that’s successful tightens the noose, and everything that’s unsuccessful is used as proof that we shouldn’t make more like it,” Ismail noted.
“So if you think things are bad now, wait until you see what’s coming, because as things get forced under larger & larger money-umbrellas for not being able to compete with Genshin/DFO/League /Roblox/etc., they’ll have to care more about promising money with whatever they do make.”
Basically, he is saying nothing can beat free-to-play games like Genshin and Roblox, which are earning tons through micro transactions. As for the quote in title, the second part says if you fail it will also lead to fewer games funded in genre.

So I don’t know what the answer is & I’ve been looking for it as if my career depends on it because it kinda does. What I do know is that to get better, it’ll either take a full collapse of the industry, or “shorter games with worse graphics made by people paid more to work less”
In other words, as a gamer (specially if you don’t play those free-to-play games), there is nothing you can do.
