won't preorder, but i so do hope that it's gonna be good and worth the wait ...

Well this is sad.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

To be fair, I haven't watched the new trailer yet, but I'd never pre-order a Bethesda game. I don't know if I'm even interested in it on release, might wait for mods etc.

I also feel like I remember some of the devs saying they "needed more time because they didn't want to be the next cyberpunk" which honestly doesn't feel like the devs have full faith in their own project? I don't know. Either way, I'm happy to wait and see.

I can see why after how many features and gameplay footage they showed off in the deep dive. If its not a buggy mess at launch they can have my 70$, but i refuse to pre order any modern games.

Oh come on people, can't even wait to the release date?

It looks good in the marketing (it always does) but we should all remember that it’s Bethesda making this. Then again, I can’t even name a developer that I would say “hell yeah, this is gonna be awesome!” at this point. The very sad state of the industry.

No way am I going to pre-order a game in this era of half baked releases and especially not a game from Bethesda which is as well known for their rampant bugs as their compelling gameplay

$70, I guess this is the world we live in now. Can't wait for the next price hike!

I guess I'll become a PatientGamer™

I'm fine with price hike, inflation is a thing.

The problem is the lack of quality and polish you'd expect from such games. Not to mention other forms of monetization they try to shoehorn in at the cost of user experience.

Not that it matters much to me, I'm patient and can wait until it's much cheaper and hopefully polished.

I found out payday 3 was announced from this post, so thanks I guess.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Stop preordering omg

Am I the only one not excited for this game? It looks boring

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Most of Bethesda's games become much better with mods. This will probably be pretty good in a few years.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Honestly. It looked vaguely like space fallout. People seem to forget the role mods played and lack of other exciting games at the time older titles released. Todds got mad late-stage George Lucas energy and i dont fall for it for a second.

Another proof for publishers that they only need big promises and nice trailers to sell their game, nevermind the state they ship it in

speaking of space games, how's Everspace 2? I enjoyed the first one and I know the second is not the same at all, but I have an itch and perhaps Everspace 2 could scratch it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Try it for yourself, there is a demo out https://store.steampowered.com/app/1128920/EVERSPACE_2/ It's definitely more of a looter shooter.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I loved Everspace 2. I think if you enjoyed the gameplay of the first one, it's a good bet you'll enjoy it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Everspace 2 is great, I'm happy to be an early adopter and backer of it. The story is great, the gameplay is perfect and there's like +80 hours of content. The combat is as good as the first, but a bit more varied with the builds you can create. I highly recommend it! :D
