    I have a personal one year embargo on starfield for this exact reason.

    Not touching it t until a year after release, waiting to see if it’s fucked or not… Bethesda, eh.

      Give it 5 or 6 years and you can get the Definitive Deluxe Starfield Special Game of the Year Edition. Pretty good deal.

      This is honestly not a bad idea.

      I’m not sure about mods, but if the game is modable, it gives you a year for all that to be created and your experience is going to be way better.

        It’ll almost certainly be moddable, but the only mod I’ll have on my first playthrough will be the unofficial patch. Maybe a UI overhaul if it’s as console-centric as vanilla Skyrim.

      You’ll definitely know within a day, at most a week, how fucked it is. The only kind of bug I can think of that may take so long to come out is if there’s a save bug that wipes saves. Which is more of a concern on console.

        True, but I figure a year gives me time to see how things pan out. You need some time to find out what the community patches will be like.

        Such a pathetic state of affairs.
