It's a Bethesda game, you're lucky to make it out of the tutorial without running into a bug :)
So no rush at all to play it, I'm waiting for reviews (and the first ten patches).
How, in the year of our lord, 2023, do people still buy Bethesda games on launch!?
HOW MANY LEOPARDS MUST EAT YOUR FACE!?
It’s on GamePass day one*
*Technically it’s day 6 as it launches on September 1st for some people
Why is everyone so negative in this thread? I didn't take time off for the release but I bought the Premium version to get the early access so that I can play on the weekend.
As for bugs in Bethesda games: I've played every BGS game since Morrowind (except Fallout 76) and since Skyrim I also played them on release day and I never experienced any game breaking bugs. Most bugs I encountered were more funny than annoying and a minor inconvenience at most. And that's applicable for almost all bugs in BGS games, yes they have bugs but most of them can be easily ignored because they don't affect enjoyment of the game.
This is why I decided to pre-order. Bethesda has created some of my all time favorite games. Yes, there are bugs, but like you said, they are rarely gamebreaking. I am excited! Hopefully this weekend will be fun!
Hang on you can't say "I've never experienced any bugs that are game breaking" and then go "oh but I also haven't played 76".
That whole game is one giant bug.
Isn't there a way to glitch through the map into a dev zone, and then get every gun in the game?
I should just have booked a 3 months vacation, with all the games coming out aug-oct.
I would never book time off to play a game.
But I do have a scratchy throat. I sure hope I don’t need to take any time off sick in a couple of weeks😉
i took work off a week after its real release but i cant wait to play it all weekend . doubt ill see any bugs as i didnt for fo4. this isnt like its an obsidian game we're talking about😂
No time off since we own our business, but I generally work from home, so time will definitely be "allocated" appropriately. 😁
Bethesda has supplied some of my longest gaming times, so I suspect this one will join that list. Skyrim and Fallout 4 are both in my top 10 games by total play time.
You betcha! Need a break from work and a long weekend to play Starfield (at least while the kids are at school/asleep/otherwise occupied) comes at a great time.
Came here for the positivity. I'll pretend all the negative nancies who will complain about ANYTHING Bethesda does no matter what are just shouting into the void.
No time off, but I will definitely work play time in as much as possible!
I took a day off to play Distant Worlds 2 all day, no regrets at all it was a lot of fun.
I took some time off because I needed a break, not specifically for Starfield, but it definitely works in my favor and it'll probably what I'm going to be spending a large chunk of time on.
Hopefully it's good. But it's a Bethesda game, so you'll be lucky if walking into rocks doesn't kill you.
I'd leave it at least a week if I were you. There is a 100% chance they'll be a game-breaking bug on day one. And there is a 50% chance that they actually fix it on day one.
