Knowing Bethesda it actually went wood and it might never actually reach any precious metal state after years of patches.

Come on Bethesda. Show me you can surprise the world and launch an unbroken game for once. I really really want to be wrong about you.

I'm already anticipating the articles about the inevitable launch-day patch and mountain of breaking bugs.

Game journalists' fingers worldwide are twitching in excitement!

I think you mean ChatGPT's virtual fingers looking at the state of game media today.

I want to believe Bethesda is gonna drop a good playable game on launch but I know they won't. I'm better off waiting a year or two for the GOTY edition and the modding community to make a great unofficial bugpatch

@TerminalEncounter tbh, I played Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout 3 and 4 and Skyrim at launch on Xbox and had hardly any issues.

Skyrim on ps3 here. That wasn't great

I played Skyrim and Fallout 4 at launch on PC and it was all good. There were bugs, but nothing game breaking and I was able to just enjoy myself without getting bogged down in it.

This is going to make me sound like a simp, but there is no chance this game launches bug free and I don't really blame Bethesda for that. Its going to be monstrously huge, and playable on multiple disparate platforms. They can't test everything. As long as they move quickly to fix the ones that break the game, I'm fine with that.

Nah they'll do what they've always do and let modders fix the bugs for them.

Wait, there's a new Bethesda game dropping tomorrow!?!? I'm proud of myself for just learning about this, I'm gonna have to check it out when I get home on Saturday
