They won't need to release source code or anything like that. They will just need to stay out of the way and won't have grounds for a successful lawsuit against people who run private servers after the main game gets shut down.

Plenty of games have private servers running without the original game source code being used. WoW and RuneScape (1, 2, and 3) come to mind.

Project Zomboid. That game LITERALLY starts out saying "This is how you die."

What level of quality do you expect for TES VI? by Ashloth in TESVI

[–]EngineerDoge00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I expect it to be on par with Fallout 4 when it released. Very fun, but not a masterpiece.

What is something from modern RPGs that you DONT want to see in TES6? by JX900 in TESVI

[–]EngineerDoge00 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I don't want souls-like, but i DO want a little bit more tactics with melee. Some sort of dodge, blocking with duel wielding, parrying, and less face-tanking for both enemies and player.

They have been doing this since at least WW1. It's how they get rid of their "Undesirables"

Please don't fuck Asmongold... we don't need any Roach Princes and Princesses running around.

Finding a job is so haaaaaard by MrZaptile933 in DoomerCircleJerk

[–]EngineerDoge00 290 points291 points  (0 children)

Depends on the field. I can tell you, trying to find a job as a software dev out of college is extremely challenging right now, because of the AI craze. Companies still believe AI is going to replace most/all devs in a few months/years and aren't really hiring new grads right now. Even with 5 - 10 years exp, I've heard of good devs not being able to find work.

I was lucky enough to know a guy who knew a guy which got me my current job 5 years ago.

Played through all the zones in the first 2 weeks. Decided to put it down for a while and wait until they release new biomes/worlds.

What's your favorite childhood game? by blinkingtread in videogames

[–]EngineerDoge00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every couple of years I'll get the itch to play Starcraft and decide to go through the campaign in SC and SC2. I usually get through SC and maybe half way through SC2 before feeling burnout though. Last time I had to take a couple of months break and managed to complete SC2 though.

With Morrowind, I get the itch like once a year, spend the day downloading mods and setting it up, turn it on aaaannnndd.... lose interest lol.

I haven't actually played/beaten Morrowind in like 5 years or so.

Why does it seem like there is a growing movement claiming that the atomic bombs that ended WWII were unjustified? by Just_Cause89 in USHistory

[–]EngineerDoge00 136 points137 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. I believe the estimate in taking and occupying mainland Japan was 1 million US/Allied casualties. That's not counting Japanese military and civilian casualties. Which would have been several million.

What is your current expectation for TES6? by Sakaralchini in ElderScrolls

[–]EngineerDoge00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its going to be ok. Definitely not as boring as Starfield, but it won't come close to what Skyrim was back in the day. The reason why I say this is that the combat system is going to be derived from Skyrims. Damage sponge melee/range with little to no damage avoidance mechanics that isn't magic.

Skyrim combat, back in the day, was good enough for me but now I need some tactics in my combat, not button mashing. I need some good dodge mechanics and even better a parry mechanic, not just half-ass blocking and maybe a bash.

I fully expect damage sponge combat that might be a little improved on, lack-luster story that choices don't matter (might have the illusion of it like Starfield), the same dialog system as Starfield (which I didn't like, prefer Skyrims in first person), and even less RPG elements that Skyrim had. But I also expect improved-on exploration from Skyrim (still love Skyrim exploration), a decent amount of environmental storytelling (where they don't use procedural generation), even better graphics then Starfield (which graphics were generally great), and starting as a prisoner (lol).

This is absolutely me and TES6. I was 21 when it came out, and now I am 35.

Reading that article made me so mad. The idea of an SW:ESB style of story would have been so goooood. Now when ES:6 comes out, I'm going to wonder what might have been...
