      Bethesda Games Studio is entirely different from Bethesda the publisher, so I wouldn’t be too worried

          Fair enough. F76 was a shit show. But I have high hopes both because Starfield is a single player game and because a multiplayer Fallout was always a terrible idea anyway

            Yes but they had an incentive to stay with it. It’s actively profitable. Whereas with star field not so much

              Starfield isn’t even out yet you’ve already decided 1) it’s bad 2) it’s broken and 3) it’s abandoned.

              I’m not sure what in their history indicates to you they’d abandon it. That one is particularly weird to me.

                I’m just concerned and will wait for reviews before buying (like everyone should). Bethesda has a reputation for being slow to fix games and having lots of bugs and crashes at release. And even then, they patch them up to being playable and leave the rest for modders to fix.

                What makes you think they stick with their games? They fix bugs for about a year or so after release and move on, just like any other studio. They fix stuff in re-releases but you have to pay for that.

                    I was reserving judgement. Just giving reasons to be cautious going into this. Everyone should still be excited, I’m just saying “expect a Bethesda game” so look at their recent games and that’s what you’re getting into probably. With those expectations, you’re less likely to be disappointed
