Seems like the opposite of what happened to No Man's Sky, initially praised at first then started getting complaints, whereas NMS was the opposite - a game that had major issues on launch (unhelped by overpromising) but built itself up to be a solid game afterwards.

Bethesda should take a page from Hello Games' book and fix the issues prevalent in the game then do the press stuff later. That also worked for Cyberpunk 2077, FWIW.
