    I’m glad they’re getting performance in order… but the game play itself still needs a lot of work and fleshing out.

    I just finished a 430 hour run in this game. It’s not the masterpiece we were all hoping for, but it’s not the failure I keep reading about, either. It’s fine. Some folks just seem to enjoy being salty.

    I’m done for now, but I’ll be back after the CK and DLC drop. I had fun.

      Same. I’m the dude who made the No More Will to Play post. There are certainly problems, weak points and straight up bad designs, but you and I wouldn’t have hundreds of hours played if it weren’t at least a little good.

      @c0c0c0 @ylai
      I am not done with playing the game yet, but that is pretty much my feeling about it as well. It will be interesting to see what changes they might bring to the game when they get around to expansions/dlc.

      I’ll be honest - I feel however a game is, you will find someone who is happy to play it for literally hundreds of hours. I’m happy you enjoyed it (as I’m sure at least a few others did), but honestly think that on average people haven’t. I may well be wrong! I’m mostly basing this off the reactions my friend groups have had to it, after a few weeks.

        And based on my friend groups’ reactions, I see the exact opposite. Frustrated with bugs and saying we’ll just wait for patches from time to time, but the next day we’re back into it and posting screenshots at each other and having fun

    Hell yeah! I’m guessing that by the “game we should have had”. They mean that I finally get a companion that doesn’t cry like a 3 year old with a skinned knee every time I kill someone. No?

    Oh, ummmmmm, then I’m guessing they meant that choices actually have consequences and you can’t join more than one faction at a time. No?

    Shit, third times the charm right? Then I’m going to guess I can finally complete the heart of mars mission. No?

    Damn it!!!

    “The game we should have had at launch”

    It’s just DLSS and quest and bug fixes.

    Whoever wrote that shit should be ashamed of themselves.

    Sorry, but improving the performance of an ancient engine that shouldn’t have been used for the last decade is not what I call “the game we should have” when there’s so much more about the game that sucks other than the performance.

    It’s like Bethesda laser focused on us bitching about the bugs for 20 years, finally tried to iron them out, but then forgot to make the game world alive so it would be less buggy.

    I didn’t notice a big improvement on my AMD GPU, seems to be largely targeted at Nvidia cards which makes sense since they were struggling so much.
