It is half a month before the release of Bethesda’s new space single-player adventure “STARFIELD” (Chinese translation: Starfield), but recently a former Blizzard developer criticized the start screen of “STARFIELD” on the X platform (formerly Twitter) Aroused the attention of many players, and finally led to the episode of Bethesda’s high-level response. It was Mark Kern who criticized the start screen of “STARFIELD”. He worked at Blizzard from 1997 to 2006 and participated in projects such as “Star SeaCraft”, “Diablo 2” and “Warcraft 3”. After leaving Blizzard, he Founded Red 5 Studios and developed the online sci-fi shooting game “Firefall”, but the game received mixed reviews following its launch in 2014, and shut down the server in 2017. And last week, Kern, who has rich development experience, believed that the game’s start screen can best see how much developers value their works, and from the start screen of “STARFIELD”, he thinks that this screen is likely to be full of Passionate teams do it to catch up, or else they just don’t care. Start screen are often done at the very end of development. Teams are too busy making the core game. It’s quite common for the start screen to completely change once the game is shipping or on patch 0. Teams that take pride want to put a good face forward and will often redo… — Grummz (@Grummz) Aug 19, 2023 It’s common for splash screens to be redesigned before launch, as most members want to show the best face of the game. However, Kern’s remarks were regarded by many as a trigger. Some people not only refuted the idea that the start screen was made last, but also many players cited the opening screen of their favorite game masterpieces, such as the GOTY award by B Agency The “The Elder Scrolls 5” splash screen to express objection. And this series of discussions finally caused Pete Hines, the vice president of Bethesda, to come to leave a message. He simply replied below: “Or this is the design that the team wants. For many years.” Or they designed what they wanted and that’s been our menu for years and was one of the first things we settled on. Having an opinion is one thing. Questioning out a developer’s “care” because you would have done it different is highly unprofessional coming from another “dev” — Pete Hines (@DCDeacon) August 20, 2023 “Questions are very unprofessional from a “developer” point of view.” Of course, Kern is only publicly expressing his personal views on the splash screen, but it is clear that the player community cares more, it seems to be in the game The core content, not the superficial opening screen performance. Because, just from the opening screen of the “Dark Soul” series, the wonderful music and monotonous English words, it is impossible to imagine how much “goodwill from Yinggao” is in it. Speaking of which, do you have a favorite game opening screen? Bethesda’s new galaxy adventure “Starry Sky” will be launched on September 6th on Xbox Series X|S, Microsoft Store, and PC (Steam). You can join the game through Xbox Game Pass on the first day of release.
