    Trusting your audience to appreciate the depth of work that isn’t just flashy graphics, plus respecting players by not filling it with micro transactions.

    People are desperate for games with some heart.

      I’m so worried that starfield is going to be the opposite of BG3.

      As a huge lover of all thing Fallout, I heard and read a lot about Starfield, then saw some videos and was and absolutely hyped. SPACE FALLOUT. Then I saw the game play and I hope I’m wrong but man it looks like they just took new vegas and slapped a space skin on it.

      Don’t just go for the flashy graphics upgrade 😭

        I’m worried about it too. So much so that I’m going to wait for reviews. I’m expecting it’ll be a buggy mess for at launch anyway, considering it’s Bethesda, the delays, and the unusually high minimum specs listed.

        I just don’t trust Bethesda anymore, I’m waiting for reviews, patches, mods to fix everything, and a sale. So maybe Xmas time but probably next spring. BG3 should hold me for most of that
