During an appearance on the Kinda Funny Gamescast, Todd Howard has mentioned how the expansion DLC is expected to launch in Fall 2024. Before this, players can look forward to some big updates coming soon.

Strong start? Really?

It was well received, decently stable, and fun for what it was. Lots of big name developers can't manage that these days.

Perhaps I am completely off base, but I didn't think it was that well received, at least not for being a bethesda game

Iirc it still sold really well (especially with preorders) and even I apparently put 20 hours into it, I tried so hard to like it...

I think it’s just one of those polarizing kind of games. I barely put 5hours into it but I have some friends still playing through the NG+ loop after 100s of hours.

I feel like it started really strong but as people completed the game a lot of people started saying it was dull.

83 and generally favorable on metacritic currently.

It was fucking boring

That’s subjective. I thought it was fine.

It started really strong until people spent time with the game
