If the best praise their PR people have to put forward is that it’s not quite as horrifically buggy as previous Bethesda games, that’s… not a great sign; Microsoft paid $7.5B for ZeniMax in large part so that this specific game would be an Xbox exclusive, if it’s not the level of masterpiece that gets people to buy Xboxes just to run it then it’ll be one of their biggest fails since Clippy.
Eh, I’d say that’s pretty good in context. Bethesda has, for the most part, put out very successful games. Bugs and Bethesda are pretty synonymous though, and that this is on the less buggy side is something to quell hot takes of “Bugfield” before people even touch it. And I think the embargo restricts deeper comments on the game, so these may he the only comments we get for a few more days.
