Interesting development, I wonder what the effects of such a decision will be further down the line for both companies and what sort of changes will have to be made to accommodate for-

JK lol. Booty.

Make Bethesda use a new engine.

As someone who enjoys modding - please don't.

How do I strongly agree with both of you?

It makes sense to shake things up since Starfield is such boring shit. Hopefully this brings about good change.

Both Bethesda & Blizzard needed some kind of change, I'm sure that in a decade we'll be regretting Microsoft's control of the market, but in the meantime at least those two companies might avoid ending up like Bungie.
