I expect this will follow the same pattern as their previous games -

1. the hype cycle will get fans frothing at the mouth
2. the launch will be delayed several times because "we want it to be PERFECT for our fans"
3. the actual launch will still be Bethesda-levels of buggy
4. Over the first ~year after release the game is slowly patched to be playable

It’s weird seeing it happen again and again.

Remember, folks - 2+ years after launch you’ll be able to purchase the original game + the half-dozen DLCs for a nickel.
