Probably a worse shitshow than Fallout 76. Even if I still had a PC I wouldn't bother buying the game until (at least) 6 months after release.
F76 was an utter shitshow but the bugs were only the third most important reason for this. Second was that its design was utter shit multi trash riding on online-only psychosis ruling back then. And first was that after this many years it was not an Elder Scrolls 6.
And in fact, Starfield is their first actual RPG since Fallout4 and considering how shit as RPG that was, since Skyrim. For me it will be most likely harsh critique so soon after the amazing real RPG that is Baldur 3 (i still prefer exploring empty planets to... building base 🤮 🤮 🤮 F4 really fucking blew it )
Yeah even if Starfield has 5x the bugs as Fallout 76, it won't matter as much. It has game saves. Bethesda had a blind spot that made them think they were capable of publishing a game that couldn't be saved and reloaded.
