Prediction: Starfield is going to a massive blunder and people are going to be unhappy
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:
-
30 FPS lock on xbox, there's no way to spin that positively, absolute fail
-
Predatory pre-order bonus skins to get people to buy before they know what they're actually going to experience (buggy shitshow)
-
Countless attempts to hype up the game and huge random assurances from the devs
-
Preemptively admitting the game has jank and trying to make it seem okay lol
At least the bugs will be absolutely hilarious I think.
You're viewing a single thread.
I don't know if any of these things are going to doom the game outright, per se, but there's been a lot of hype building around the game for a long time and I think that's... potentially ominous. It's being positioned as the Next Big Thing(tm), and it's rare that any game can live up to that. Even if it's not a complete Cyberpunk-esque disaster, failing to live up to the frankly impossible expectations that are being foisted upon it are very likely to result in backlash.
