And that’s without counting those who purchased Skyrim through GOG.

Not too surprising. I would expect consoles to reflect the same player ratio. I really wanted to love Starfield but I never felt that ‘magic’ like I did with Skyrim and Fallout. There was a dude who encapsulated my feelings towards Skyrim perfectly: youtube.com/shorts/CJ7tsL47KRw?si=pdXaCAkc8ui8aPh… I could just stop and soak in the ambiance for so long. I am 13 years older and maybe that’s part of it but I never felt that draw with Starfield.

That’s how I felt about skyrim after playing oblivion for so long, I just couldn’t stick with it long enough to beat it until years later after sinking in a ton of time on fallout 4 I finally went back to do the main quest

I must have sunk over a thousand hours into Skyrim over the years, and I think I’ve finished the main quest line exactly once and that was after a year or two of playing. Same with Oblivion too

He’s been selling new versions of Skyrim since I was a teenager so I’m pretty sure he’s fine with that.

But skyrim only came out a few years ago…

Maybe don’t block half your buyers from buying the game cause you’re still doing this console war bullshit

You do realize that the Todd Howard from Starfield is the same Todd Howard as from Skyrim?

Todds changed in the decade since Skyrim.
