I will say once more. Do not preorder video games. It could be shit, it could be buggy, but what it won’t do is run out of copies. Wait until the reviews are out, or even a bit after it launches if you can. If you’re anything like me you have hundreds of games you haven’t played yet so what’s an hour or a day in the grand scheme of things.
It’s a Bethesda game. It wouldn’t feel right if it were bug-free.
It wouldn’t feel right if it didn’t have the exact same bugs as the last 4 Bethesda releases.
If anything is moving backwards through the air, you know it was bolted on to code for Skyrim’s dragons
The reviews have mentioned it does actually have an enemy that is this games dragon lol
It’s also on Gamepass. You can play it instantly for a much lower cost to make sure it works. Then buy it if you still want later when it goes on sale.
It’s finally happened … my 1070 is finally below minimum requirements for a game I want to play. Guess this will be an Xbox only game for me because I am not paying the insane prices for GPUs.
I run most of my gaming through GeForce No Can’t afford to replace my 1070 and streaming the games seem to work fine for now.
GPUs are at pretty reasonable prices if you buy used. The 3060 Ti is $237 and it beats the 4060.
That’s assuming I have $237 laying around to play a game id also need to spend $70 on.
Alpha Centauri +4.37LY
Man, this is some BULLSHIT. Why do the Alpha Centaurians have to wait so long?
Stupid speed of causality.
We still haven’t established whether some form of warp drive is doable or not. Even if you can’t move faster than light, if you can distort spacetime around yourself sufficiently in the right way, you can maybe get a functionally-similar effect.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcubierre_drive
The Alcubierre drive ([alkuˈβjere]) is a speculative warp drive idea according to which a spacecraft could achieve apparent faster-than-light travel by contracting space in front of it and expanding space behind it, under the assumption that a configurable energy-density field lower than that of vacuum (that is, negative mass) could be created.[1][2] Proposed by theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre in 1994, the Alcubierre drive is based on a solution of Einstein’s field equations. Since those solutions are metric tensors, the Alcubierre drive is also referred to as Alcubierre metric.
Objects cannot accelerate to the speed of light within normal spacetime; instead, the Alcubierre drive shifts space around an object so that the object would arrive at its destination more quickly than light would in normal space without breaking any physical laws.[3]
The local velocity relative to the deformed space-time would be subluminal, but the speed at which a spacecraft could move would be superluminal, thereby rendering possible interstellar flight, such as a visit to Proxima Centauri within a few days.
A LY isn’t a unit of time…
Don’t own an Xbox or PC, I’m going to wait until they decide milking money out of an old game > exclusivity and play with the future GOTY edition on a smart refrigerator or a Playdate or whatever other weird platform they repackage it for.
Is it still 30 fps on Series X? I don’t think that’s acceptable for a first-person game in 2023.
It’s not going to get better unless companies start making consoles with 1-2 year life cycles (which won’t sell, because at that point, you may as well be swapping parts out of your PC of Theseus).

Why? If the game has been targetted at 30 though development and everything built around that it should be fine.
You really believe that? Have you played New Vegas at 30 and 60 fps? Go ahead and try it out. I’ll wait.
Ssd required?
It shouldn’t be a surprise. Games load assets on the fly to save memory, which would be terrible on a hard drive.
SSD Required? Wat
It is not at all sustainable to game on HDDs anymore. They are still good for slow cold storage, though.
Yes. Now that all the consoles have ssds, devs are going to design their games around them. That means asset streaming is the norm. And that means hdds will cause massive pop-in and stutters.
how do you know that Todd Howard lied? he opened his mouth.
