Preodering a Bethesda title... 😬 Whatever, it doesn't affect me in the end.

This time it will have 64 times the details!

I found out payday 3 was announced from this post, so thanks I guess.

won't preorder, but i so do hope that it's gonna be good and worth the wait ...

I don't really care that people throw away their money like this. Because I am now always looking forward to the always very entertaining youtube clips of how much off a disaster the lastet AAA videogame release is.

I don't really get how people's problem with Bethesda is bugs and glitches, which are completely solvable, and not the writing that makes you want to remove some brain tissue from your skull so that it doesn't bother you that much

The bugs might as well be features at this point for those that preorder lmao

I really don’t understand the point of preordering a…. digital release…. The game will literally still be available whether one person buys it or one million…

I don't really get the pre-order game market. Tired it once and turned out to be a complete disaster. The game was Batman Arkham Knight. That game should have been a crime to sell in that condition.

Especially with starfield. It is day one on gamepass so the only reason to pre-purchase is for early access and special editions. The game looks like it could be good or fall flat but I can spend $1 for a month of gamepass to find out for myself.

I'm holding out for some youtube play footage.

I'm not surprised after that in-depth direct. The game looks massive.

But it's Bethesda, so I'm definitely going to wait for reviews.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

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.

I remember seeing that you get a few days early access if you pre-order. Dear lord, playing a PRE-day one Bethesda RPG? Forget buggy, it'll be a pile of writhing polygons on the floor.

When will they learn that their actions have consequences? Star field is going to be a fucking disaster lol.

I don't see any reason to pre-order a digital game with infinite supply, but at the same time you could always refund it if turns out terrible. Personally I'd wait awhile if not years before purchasing new games so I can get a feel for how they turned out. 2 hours is not really enough time to grasp a game like this. You would really only determine if it is incapable of running on your computer.
