There’s quite a wide range of reviews. I tend to trust the ones who talk about how much fun the side content and faction quests a lot more than I trust the ones that were underwhelmed by the main questline. I’ve been playing these games since Oblivion and the only main questline I ever finished was Fallout NV.
Not really the same type of game at all. Elite is a fun simulation but there’s essentially no story.
In the same way, I’m sure the space combat will be fun in Starfield, with essentially no depth.
All of the most positive reviews I’ve read have been at 80+ hours. Still finding new things to do, which is a good sign.
Docking point for subjective things is weird to me as well. “I wanted a minimap!”
This reviewer also went right into NG+ after finishing the main story. I guess play how you want, but that feels deeply wrong to me.
Yeah I watched that. It was almost all dev talk, some views on the major city, and some promises. I meant like, I haven’t seen ANY impressions from outside the company that made the game.
But yeah, review embargo is up so let’s see
Ohhh, so that’s why he was called Buzz Lightyear!
Being downvoted for sense. What a world.
Man I wish I could even get a consistent impression out of anyone. I’ve been scrounging for pre-release footage but Beth is being weirdly tight lipped about this one.
100% a wait for the reviews situation, the less they show off the more I worry they’re hiding something. Just a reminder to everyone, Fallout 76 was the last game they released…
Am I crazy or has there been almost no pre-release coverage of this game?
Oblivion and Fallout 3 are two of my all-time favourite games (I’ve played the others as well but those 2 stuck with me the most) but I just cannot get hyped for this game. It’s like a black box with people’s hopes and dreams, and it feels like people are just hyping themselves up by imagining what could be inside it.
I couldn’t imagine pre-ordering this game in particular. Beth has been so quiet I’m worried it may just be a total flop.
They also mention that the majority of homeless aren’t that.
Yes, but the majority of visible homeless are.
I mean it’d be as realistic as the rest of the AITA posts, I’m on board
I think the Russian conception of Nazi is literally someone who threatens Russia.
Yep. Just like the US definition of socialist/communist/terrorist
Unfortunate but this is the truth. Too many of us have been accustomed to small luxuries like “affording takeout”, but we unfortunately have been priced out of being able to afford stuff like this.
It’s a tough pill to swallow if you’ve been doing it your whole life and think that a functioning adult with a full-time job should be able to afford some takeout every now and again. We are not the generation that gets to enjoy that privilege, it seems.
That’s what makes the “I’m not bought and paid for so I can say it’s a hoax freely” line so weird.
I’ve never understood how people not being paid to intentionally misunderstand the topic can go on about the hoax line.
Yes, I think if your political views are actively hurting someone or advocating for harm to a group of people then you should be held responsible for the shit that comes out of your own mouth.
This is not even remotely comparable to being unable to fire someone just because they’re black, or gay, or a woman.
That’s the thing though, it’s not Netflix vs cable anymore. It’s Netflix + Disney + Prime + whatever other streaming services have the shit you actually want to watch. And when you add it up, it’s just like cable packages. The only advantage is it’s all on demand.
Yeah it’s not all or nothing though. You’re acting like outside the US it’s impossible to fire people. That’s simply not even remotely true.
Are you comparing an intentional political stance that someone (hopefully) reasoned themselves into as equally inescapable of the colour of one’s skin, or sexual orientation?
Crazy thought, if you’re getting put on blast due to your political views you absolutely do not need to continue sharing them with the class.
That’s fair, but also, the fact that it has procedural generation should not be a surprise to anyone at this point, they were very open about it.
I’m just hoping there’s an easy way to distinguish in game between the procedural stuff that’s not worth exploring and the stuff that is. I’m hoping it can be safely ignored, but it WILL be annoying if they hide really interesting questlines on otherwise barren planets.
