these three, but outside of LoZ & SSB, I don't really play Nintendo games that much.

also, Rockstar.

maybe Larian, but I've only played one of their games, so idk.

Larian

Not a dev but anything Devolver publishes is usually worth trying out.

Has Rockstar ever made a bad game? I've never played State of Emergency but I think the reviews are good

Yeah tbh they were pretty janky during the PS2 generation.

They got a massive boost in production values during the 360/PS3 era.

Maybe Retro... but right now they're like the George R.R. Martin of video games. There's no footage of their next game, so realistically we're looking at a decade-long gap between releases. Their reputation has kind of reset, for me.

Used to be Bioware for me. These days it's just Fromsoft and indie devs who rarely have more than one game under their belt.

This is a good one though.

Publisher, not dev, but Devolver Digital has the most supreme fucking taste.

Honestly everyone I thought this for eventually stopped being the case.

Bioware was my number one developer 10 years ago. Self-explanatory with what happened there. CDProjektRED was as well and yet I still haven't played past the intro to Cyberpunk 2077.

I have a bunch of developers that I consider reliable with an *

Platinum Games have released some stinkers but they're close. Anything that's not a licensed IP I'm there for.

Nintendo have too many games for me to keep up with. But if it's a mainline entry to Mario or Zelda I'll be there.

If Bethesda release single player games I'll be there.

Insomniac are day one with games like Spider-Man or Sunset Overdrive but I don't care about their lower budget stuff or Ratchet and Clank that much.

When I think of developers right now that I trust the most to deliver a game that appeals to me and will probably go for everything they release in the future I'm looking at Naughty Dog, Remedy, IO Interactive, Rockstar and Arkane (although in Deathloop's case I'm happy to wait a year for Game Pass). Assuming the games are still single player focused.
