There's a lot of build up for Starfield. A lot of pressure and a lot of expectations. Hoping it's decent
They (Bethesda) have a track record of making great games, even counting all the buggy, glitchy, janky bullshit that comes with them. I'm not expecting a total failure or a smooth launch based on literally every game they've put out since I discovered them with Morrowind. A good game, with the same jank and maybe even new jank is what I'm expecting.
The jank is part of the charm. Who doesn't remember Skyrim Horsing their way up a mountain?
Yeah, I think they get some unfair flack for "buggy" games. It's kinda true, but at the same time I feel like they release boundary-pushing games. Granted Im also looking back at skyrim and FO3 with the bias of nostalgia.
