    Stuff like it would have real 100% online multiplayer, or infinite number of highly detailed planets.

    OP probably meant unrealistic expectations.

      … who’s even saying that? It’s not like No Man’s Sky where that stuff actually was promised.

        I think that’s exactly OPs point. There are people around who are complaining it doesn’t have features that were never mentioned or promised.

          that’s madness. I can get the performance complaints and anger at Bethesda’s attitudes to them, but in terms of features, this isn’t NMS, despite the very similar premise.

            I think people spend years following the development and hear every rumour and build it up way to much in their heads.

            I haven’t got around to playing yet and I’ve avoided as much news as possible.

            From what people are saying it sounds like Skyrim in space which is all good to me.

      I used up all of my unrealistic expectations on Star Citizen.
