Bethesda Games Studio is entirely different from Bethesda the publisher, so I wouldn't be too worried
After fallout 76, I’m worried. After canceling Prey 2, I’m worried.
Fair enough. F76 was a shit show. But I have high hopes both because Starfield is a single player game and because a multiplayer Fallout was always a terrible idea anyway
F76 has come a long way since launch. I'm impressed with how committed they've been to it.
Yes but they had an incentive to stay with it. It’s actively profitable. Whereas with star field not so much
Starfield isn’t even out yet you’ve already decided 1) it’s bad 2) it’s broken and 3) it’s abandoned.
Well, it will probably be broken.
Name one Bethesda Studios game that wasn't broken at launch.
But fair points otherwise.
I’m just concerned and will wait for reviews before buying (like everyone should). Bethesda has a reputation for being slow to fix games and having lots of bugs and crashes at release. And even then, they patch them up to being playable and leave the rest for modders to fix.
What makes you think they stick with their games? They fix bugs for about a year or so after release and move on, just like any other studio. They fix stuff in re-releases but you have to pay for that.
Every fallout has received DLC/updates for years after release. Skyrim has its fair share of DLC as well.
I’m not preordering here or anything but I think it’s reasonable to reserve judgment for when the game is actually released?
I was reserving judgement. Just giving reasons to be cautious going into this. Everyone should still be excited, I’m just saying “expect a Bethesda game” so look at their recent games and that’s what you’re getting into probably. With those expectations, you’re less likely to be disappointed
