gravitas_deficiency,

So, I’m excited for this game, but after being burned one too many times on preorders, I’ve made it a personal policy to refuse to engage any sort of preorder.

Not_Alec_Baldwin,

Hallelujah!

If a few million more of us do this maybe the industry will improve…

verysoft,

Who is buying this on Steam? It's priced higher than BG3...
It's defo a game for a month of game pass and then can purchase at a sale later if it's worth it.

forgotaboutlaye,

If you're willing to give up your option to refund in a 2hr gameplay window, you can get a Steam key from reputable (not greymarket) sellers for a decent discount. Here's an example

verysoft,

GMG would be a better option, but game pass for a month is still the way here imo.

Jaeger86,

Do we know when the review embargo will be lifted?

Reva,

According to this article, they sent out the codes today and the embargo may lift on September 1st.

jesterraiin,

YES.

Can’t wait to play this game, even if it means mere 20 minutes before going to sleep…

I can’t tell if you’re a kid with a bedtime or you’re very conscious of your sleep schedule.

jesterraiin,

I’m a dad of a young lady.

Ha, gotta love regaining a bedtime to set a good example!

jesterraiin,

I hope that Starfield is going to be so good, I will be happy to sacrifice a few minutes of rest to play it. 😬

You can probably change your region to New Zealand on your Xbox and play early. I’ve done it successfully for other releases.

jesterraiin,

Thank you.

It is my firm belief that Bethesda’s games shouldn’t be tried in less than 3-4 months after their release, due to problems, unpatched bugs and the lack of mods that address some weird design choices. I can wait for that long, especially since I’m so tired these days that I forget what’s my name sometimes… 😉

ominouslemon,

Heck, not only Bethesda games. I do that for all games basically

jesterraiin,

Logical.

Imagine if all/the majority/plenty enough of players would do that - the prices of the games would fall down, there would be less crap on the market and certainly, there would be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay less occurrences like the release of Cyberpunk…

ominouslemon,

And don’t get me started on preorders!

dan1101,

I might take the day off to play it, I took the day off for Distant Worlds 2 and had a blast. Self-care day. ;)

jesterraiin,

You’re good people, man.
