To make a long story short, it reminds me of a cross between Doom 3 and Fallout New Vegas, which makes obvious sense I suppose. Since I like both franchises and tend to favor products from both of the companies that are now under the same management, I'd have to say in the end it's a good thing. I think Bethesda can benefit from the game formulas that the id guys have proven to be tried-and-true (after all, the original Doom games have been popular for like twenty years) and id can benefit from the cutting-edge technology that Zenimax seems to keep under its thumb (I've yet to see any actual gameplay video of SKYRIM, but I'd bet it will have the same OMG! effect that Oblivion had when it was new).<br /><br />So, while I was a bit taken by surprise by the corporate development, when all is said and done I accept it and look forward to seeing what they do in the future.Herculinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02762210820428273110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538673059916658773.post-8164552600677878672011-04-04T19:16:09.671-04:002011-04-04T19:16:09.671-04:00What's your take on this Herculine?

If things get too buddy buddy you may need a new name for the blog ... BethaDoom Fanatic (nah, doesn't work).<br /><br />BTW, thanks for the heads-up yesterday.Strikernoreply@blogger.com
