      I never watched any trailer because i assumed that’s what the game will be like. But after watching some gameplay, it’s somehow worse. Some things look really good, it has these trailer moments. But some textures for example are straight up 480p. A part of me thought that they learned from fallout 4 or fallout 76, but that’s not how you print money, right?
      The fact alone that the UI is laughably bad, is just one thing, but the loading times, in a game where you spend so much time opening and closing your inventory shouldn’t be accepted, ESPECIALLY since a modder fixed their UI on day one. But SOMEHOW there are people out there defending that bullshit. If i would care for Bethesda games and spending ours collecting space trash, i’d be livid. Their next game i 6 years will still be just a bit better looking than skyrim.

        The thing that really gets me is that the game can’t run on a normal HDD. Despite being as sectioned off as it is by loading screens, and the graphics being pretty standard for a modern AAA game, it literally requires an SSD to run.

        The only other game I’ve encountered that requires an SSD is Baldur’s Gate 3, and even that runs perfectly fine on a normal HDD, so long as you don’t mind occasionally waiting for stuff to load in after a loading screen.

        They literally live off hype then going quiet long enough for people to forget the disappointment. The older people remember and don’t expect much, the middle aged people remember but are hopeful they’ll be better (and that the older people are just jaded), and the younger people just fall for the hype.

        This is it, this is all Bethesda is now. Constantly recycling suckers through long dev cycles and hype.

          I had McDonalds a couple times when I was in Japan and the difference in quality was shocking. Twice as good for half the price. You can get a big mac meal with a large fry and milkshake for like 950 yen (about 6 bucks)
