I have hopes from these reviews, although I do wonder how much of the score improvement is due to From Software’s new reputation.

Unplayable mess? I never said that. However, more than a few people had game-breaking bugs in Skyrim and had to restart or hope they had a save from far enough back.

Obviously Skyrim was playable enough since it was an immediate critical success. I can’t really speak for fallout 4 since I never played it and didn’t bother following the news for it.

That being said, there are memes older than some people on lemmy equating Bethesda and bugs. They’ve earned their reputation, but good and bad.

I’m excited for Starfield but buying a Bethesda game on release week is probably a bad idea. Let them get a few patches out first.

Assuming Armored Core is as polished as many of these reviews suggest, it might be a great game to tide me over until then.

Also renewing license plates/licenses. Basically if you need to make a yearly or monthly payment to keep using something it’s a scam in my eyes.

Not sure about where you live, but where I live, that money goes towards road upkeep. That money has to come from somewhere.
