    Especially with starfield. It is day one on gamepass so the only reason to pre-purchase is for early access and special editions. The game looks like it could be good or fall flat but I can spend $1 for a month of gamepass to find out for myself.

      Hell if it’s what they promised and isn’t broken as fuck a couple weeks after launch, I’ll pay full price.

      I’m definitely gonna let the beta testers speed run it first so I can find out if they’ve just massively lied to us (only 200 worlds or some shit, space isn’t fully open but just a bunch of pre-chosen “instances” you warp to and can’t leave, etc.) Before I even give it a thought, though.

      Day one reviews are worthless too, even the non-corporate shill YouTubers still haven’t really gotten to play enough to be making assessments on day 1 and we all know it. They speed through the tutorial and then declare it a 7/10 cause they have to beat IGN to the front page.

      Two weeks, see if it’s worth the price, go from there.
