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.
Yup. It’s easy to be cynical about the current state of video games, but Bethesda seems to still be made up of people who are genuinely excited about what they are building, all the way up to management.
It’s not a perfect indicator for success, but I think it’s a pretty damned good one.
