I will come back to this post in September to see if I was right lol
Biggest concerning signs:
-
30 FPS lock on xbox, there’s no way to spin that positively, absolute fail
-
Predatory pre-order bonus skins to get people to buy before they know what they’re actually going to experience (buggy shitshow)
-
Countless attempts to hype up the game and huge random assurances from the devs
-
Preemptively admitting the game has jank and trying to make it seem okay lol
At least the bugs will be absolutely hilarious I think.
It’s probably going to be the game of the year, maybe beaten by TOTK. Certainly it’ll be one of the best selling games of all time.
This is such a neckbeard take.
Maybe somewhere in the middle, honestly. Highly publicized bugs at launch, people complaining they’re under-delivering on what we all knew was marketing bullshit, then bugs get fixed under the radar and the game turns out to be amazing by the time they release their first DLC.
People always harp on about not pre-ordering, but you know what’s even better? Ignoring launch hype. I mean, look at Cyberpunk.
Yea, single player games, on consoles, can be 100% enjoyable even at 30fps. BotW and TotK are perfect examples of it. I haven’t seen any trailers or reviews or content of Starfield, btw, so don’t anyone date call me a coper.
It’s a bit rougher in an FPS, but not a deal-breaker if the game is good.
Good thing this is an RPG then.
I mean literally the first-person camera.
Like you the fact you’re moving a crosshair makes it much more noticeable. It’s the same on desktop for 60Hz vs. 120+Hz too.
I don’t care so much though, I doubt I’ll even hit 30 FPS on my potato.
Member Fallout '76? I member.
Wow that is way more of a neckbeard take. There is no way in hell starfield is going to beat totk. It’s going to be janky shit, but outside of specific communities nobody cares about starfield in comparison.
I think it’ll be close as TOTK is a really, really strong contender. In any other year Starfield would get it for sure. But TOTK is pretty incredible.
BG3 comes out the week before too.
