The product is 10 hour long and worth $60
This is bullsheeeeeeeet.
The game is out for 48 hours already yet noone got game finished achievement. At least a few hours back when I checked.
However, the french dev possibly talked about fastrun. When DX:MD got out, mainstream reviewers sweared it's supershort. They didn't lie, it's just they ignored everything aside and fastrun through the main story following the handhold pointer on the minimap. Upon the release fastrunners discovered it's possible to beat the game, in fact the main story, on the highest difficulty in mere 3 hours. Means, reviewers were in fact, when it comes to fastruns, pathetic.
I was going to buy this at release, but I've decided to hold off for now. I don't have the spare time to start playing it immediately anyways. I'm also debating whether or not I want to replay Dishonored 1 first.
Fair point.
The major problem is that the game tutorial and intro generally do not have problems. That's those numerous 1st hour of game playthrough video spams.
But once the player reaches chapter 2, performance turns into a shitstorm of biblical proportions.
My guess is that Bethesda used PC version as test for that nonnative 4K new consoles idiocy - impossible to disable upscaling on PC is a horrible idea, not to mention impossible to disable general blur.
It's highly possible Bethesda gave some version to QA that allows only the first hour of play. In such case it's logical QA couldn't spot what happens when a player proceeds with the story.
However, I'm still confused how that same QA didn't notice that pressing ESC, although written everywhere as go_back key, doesn't work! Honestly, I thought at first my keyboard farted - because
NONE of "pro" mainstream reviewers mentioned this.
Point of the story? Do not preorder games. Don't be as stupid as I am.
I did decide not to preorder ME4, although not because of being scared of bugs but because MMO. There is a game I will preorder definetly and it's Elex. Lemme be stupid just a bit more, besides their Risen games weren't bug-o-ramas so Elex might be almost bug free.
But beside Elex, I'm not so sure I'll preorder something again - unless there is a 3 days window like in case of No Man's Sky where thanks to early console version release and general disappointment I could decide on preorder (and I ditched it).
EDIT:
A new one. Trivia, how many savegame slots you may use on your 1 terabyte of free space HDD?
