I will come back to this post in September to see if I was right lol
Biggest concerning signs:
-
30 FPS lock on xbox, there’s no way to spin that positively, absolute fail
-
Predatory pre-order bonus skins to get people to buy before they know what they’re actually going to experience (buggy shitshow)
-
Countless attempts to hype up the game and huge random assurances from the devs
-
Preemptively admitting the game has jank and trying to make it seem okay lol
At least the bugs will be absolutely hilarious I think.
Not sure what people are actually expecting from starfield. It’ll be TES/Fallout in space. The story will be mediocre but who plays Bethesda games for the main quest anyway? The graphics won’t be top-notch, but who plays Bethesda games for the graphics? It won’t be completely bug-free, but who… You get it. It will be a game that we will play for decades to come, especially with mods. But I don’t expect it to be a revolution of the genre.

Before they showed it people absolutely where expecting something else than TES/Fallout in space. But as soon as they showed it, it was obvious it is just another typical bethesda RPG. Don’t get me wrong, a lot of people seem to love that. But the expectation was certainly something else after they announced it.
