Nah, I think you’re way overblowing this. Starfield is going to be a success, it’ll be the least buggy release they’ve ever had and people will love it. Monetization? Sure. 30fps? Yeah that’s standard for consoles. It’s not going to be a perfect game, it’s just going to be a damn good one. Enjoy it in the sea of mediocrity we have right now
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.
It’s also the first game they’re making with Microsoft resources, and by what they’re showing, they really seem to be learning with their mistakes and improving.
I agree with OP that Starfield is going to make a lot of people unhappy, mostly because of their own unreal expectations, but it is not going to be a blunder, let alone a massive one. However, it could be the most perfect game ever made and yet gamers/redditors that won’t even bother playing the game will find something to complain about and hop on the hatewagon because they’re just that miserable
