I can see why after how many features and gameplay footage they showed off in the deep dive. If its not a buggy mess at launch they can have my 70$, but i refuse to pre order any modern games.

Was there even a release date announced?

Can my space horse walk vertically up a space mountain? If not, I’m out.

Like watching moths to a flame. Bug-thesda is going to do what it always does; Ship a quarter of a product and fix it over years. I'd call it No Mans Sky syndrome but Elder Scrolls / Fallout has dealt with it longer.

To be fair, I haven't watched the new trailer yet, but I'd never pre-order a Bethesda game. I don't know if I'm even interested in it on release, might wait for mods etc.

I also feel like I remember some of the devs saying they "needed more time because they didn't want to be the next cyberpunk" which honestly doesn't feel like the devs have full faith in their own project? I don't know. Either way, I'm happy to wait and see.

Not surprised at all. People can't wait to get their hands on the game.

Cities Skylines 2 isn't 60 euros? LETSGOOOOOOOOO

[–] DinDjarin@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I pre-ordered, but really only for the really cool watch and case. I forgot the game comes with it, although I like what I see so far. Fallout in space(ish).

Don't you only get the watch and case when you get the like, $300 version? The watch was super cool but I can't reason with myself to spend that kinda money on the game gear if I don't end up liking the game itself in the end. I do really love the watch, though...

Never actually pre-ordered anything, anyway.

[–] DinDjarin@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah, I've always wanted a special edition of a game and the watch was so cool. It's a lot of money, sure, but it's a dream I've had since I saw how cool the Halo 3 special edition looked. Everything kinda lined up for this one. The game might not be the best out the gate, but I'm sure it will improve in time. I've enjoyed every Bethesda game I've played so far and they have some of the best mods out there because of the great community around their games.

After getting burned by the Oblivion AI "trailer" I won't ever trust Bethesda advertising again. Straight lies.

Glad to see that the game has plenty of unpaid beta testers. I'll still wait for a sale (if it's any good)

Glad to see that the game has plenty of ~~unpaid~~ paying beta testers.

Cannot think of one Bethesda game with a smooth launch. You couldn't pay me to preorder it when I can just play something else and come back to it when everything's been patched/modded in a year

I will totally buy this the second it's released just to say I didn't preorder.
