  Plus you’ll get to see if they add all the post-launch microtransactions like games are starting to do these days.

  Launch to good reviews, and THEN rebalance and force players towards transactions and paid currencies.

    Yup… dodged Diablo 4 by doing this.

    Kinda sad about it though, really enjoyed Diablo II back in the day. Really miss the days when the name Blizzard meant guaranteed quality.

      The silver lining here is that now when you see Blizzard, you know to avoid it no matter what.

    They’ll probably have Creation Club stuff, like in Skyrim and FO4, where they contract modders to create small pieces of content.

  The issues are way overblown. I have a mid tier system as best (2070S 8700k) and with the DLSS mod and some performance tweaks I play on Ultra.

    The issues are way overblown. I just bought a new car and with brand new tires and a few thousand dollars of tweaks from a repair shop I can go a little over the speed limit now.

      How is a 2070S equivalent to a new car?

    I love Starfield and has been playing it every day since launch. It runs like dogshit. Sure it doesn’t stutter or anything but I can’t, for the life of me, get the average FPS in outdoor areas to be anything higher than 70. 5800X + 3080 Ti. It doesn’t matter how much I lower the setting, the CPU overhead is crazy.

  Try Armored Core 6, 100% worth it day one

  Armored Core VI and Baldur’s Gate III are two big recently published games that do work quite well. They stand on the shoulders of two respectable companies.

    Yea BG3 is amazing, but I still waited at least a couple of weeks before touching it.

      Waiting is what I would do when I had to wait for allowance. I can wait now too!

  Even before release I figured I’d wait for a sale. Too many good games just came out I want more, big backlog of Yakuza games I recently started and got totally hooked on. Not interested in helping standardize $70 games, will wait for a sale, and by then there will be a better mod scene too. Less money for a better game, win/win.

  I’ve played it a little on Xbox since it’s on gamepass and I haven’t encountered any bugs, other than a single game crash. Is the PC release significantly worse than console?

  Doesn’t feel revolutionary but I’m enjoying it. Created Amos Burton and it’s a pretty fun playthru so far.

    I’ve had 0 hard crashes but a few soft crashes since entering the final stretch of the MSQ. Sarah and Walter are stuck “talking” to each other permanently despite Sarah being in my ship and Walter the lodge. And if I try to talk to either of them the game locks up whenever it’s time for the other npc to chime in and I have to reload. I also had a random soft crash where I couldn’t enter the lodge from new Atlantis no matter what I did until I restarted the .exe(I’m thinking it’s related to the convos bug I’m experiencing). Also the weird movement bugs like someone walking away from you during a convo or crew members floating in random places in my ship. Also have a flashing texture issue for a few seconds after accessing the inventories in the armory ship habs.

    Outside that I’m getting 50-70 fps with mostly high settings at 1080p.
