Gaming

Stuff like this is the reason game companies continue to release unfinished games, they're breaking even before they even release. Stop pre-ordering games people!

The game looks promising, from what i have seen.

Few questions remain: Will it dethrone Jedi Survivor as worst performing game? Will it surpass Redfall in it's emptyness? Does it have a chance fighting LOTR Gollum in "Most 2023ish game of the year"? Or will it truly be a Masterpiece? (Hint: Masterpieces don't get released in 2023).

We will find out at release. Together with those that preorderd.

The funniest thing is seeing the rage from Star Citizen fanboys about all this. They keep saying "it'll be buggy and awful on release" like SC isn't already. I know with Bethesda, they'll fix it up and the modders will go wild with patches and add ins, delivering all the stuff Chris Roberts said they would. Meanwhile, I try and play Star Citizen and i've died or failed a mission due to glitches any time i've tried to play this past week.

Oh come on people, can't even wait to the release date?

I officially hate everyone who preorders digital games. There is absolutely no justification for it. If you preorder, youre the reason modern gaming sucks.

No idea why you'd pre-order this. The sensible route is to get a trial of Game Pass (or a free month doing Microsoft Rewards) and try it out. If you like it, either buy it or continue with your Game Pass subscription.

Preordering is bad. Preordering a Bethesda game is worse.

$70, I guess this is the world we live in now. Can't wait for the next price hike!

I guess I'll become a PatientGamer™

Fellas! Why are games today so buggy! Why are they incomplete? I just don’t understand!!!!‽‽???

It's gonna be on gamepass there is 0 reason to preorder. People be tripping

I've been buying Bethesda RPGs without waiting for reviews since 2007. They've all had their rough spots but not a single one has disappointed me. Despite their issues I put hundreds of hours into each one and enjoyed them all. I see no reason to think this won't be the same, and have no problem betting $70 on it. I pre-ordered last night on Xbox.

When will you learn!? That your actions have consequences!

Well that's disappointing. As excited as I am, I actually recall the distant events of this year....no preordering.

the first rule of the Biscuit: do not Proeorder

pre-ordering is bad mmmkay

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

This have looks fabulous to me, but there's no way I'm preordering. I don't have a lot of experience with Bethesda, but I thought the overall picture painted was a pretty gorgeous one. Hopefully they can deliver. That being said, I just started playing Fallout76 about two weeks ago, so I don't mind waiting until they work sone things out. Overall though, what they are promising looks incredible. Probably too good to be true :)

As hyped as I am - never preorder!

I wish you all luck on your pre order

Why would anyone pre order a digital game?

This time it will have 64 times the details!

I don't know if they can reasonably judge the game within the 2 hours frame for refund. (Some game now do a very long shader compilation that can eat 30 minutes of your time.) The tutorial/beginning stage of the game are usually the most polished, but the latter part of the game could become very hollow.

They are going to get themselves cyberpunk'd.

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.

Obligatory 70 bucks is too much for a game comment
