Prediction: Starfield is going to a massive blunder and people are going to be unhappy

3 years ago by TendieMaster69 to c/games

Bethesda boss Todd Howard has explained why Starfield is going to be locked to 30fps on Xbox Series X|S consoles.

I will come back to this post in September to see if I was right lol

Biggest concerning signs:

  1. 30 FPS lock on xbox, there's no way to spin that positively, absolute fail

  2. Predatory pre-order bonus skins to get people to buy before they know what they're actually going to experience (buggy shitshow)

  3. Countless attempts to hype up the game and huge random assurances from the devs

  4. Preemptively admitting the game has jank and trying to make it seem okay lol

At least the bugs will be absolutely hilarious I think.

Is it going to be horrible ? No. Just from the gameplay I've seen I can tell you I'm going to have a good time. Will it live up to my personal expectations? Absolutely not. But neither did cyberpunk and anytime someone asks me for a good cyberpunk game I don't hesitate to tell the cp2077 is in a league of it's own, despite all the shortcomings.

Off topic but I am SUPER STOKED for the upcoming Cyberpunk overhaul.

I’m hoping it will be decent, but the official trailer made it look empty and boring. It did not inspire confidence for me.

Not sure if you've seen it, but there was also a 30 minute deep dive where they showed off most of the different features of the game.
