So, here we are.

Another Avatar bet.

Will Starfield launch, bugs and all in the first half of 2023 as Microsoft has promised?

Avatars still need to be decided, and I think you have to wear your Avatar with pride for atleast a month. Personally, I think it should be for 6 months from 1st of July until the end of the year.

What do you think?

Let's do this, I'll risk it. And vote yes that it will launch in H1.

Not voting cause I love my avatar.

But it's a bit of a no brainer. It's gonna be H2.

They are releasing only Redfall before fate of Acti-blizz deal is decided. Not seeing them taking any chances.
 
If it was coming out in the next 4 months I'm sure we'd know about it already. I think there was 5 months between Fallout 4 reveal and release.

I'm just going to tell myself it'll be October-November. If it comes sooner then great.

H1 is a weird bet to make when it could be literally July 1st and that's H2.

I'd bet it's delayed slightly to, say, Autumn. Fall for the murricans.

It will launch with bugs regardless.It's impossible to launch a massive rpg like this with complex systems without bugs.People need to stop comparing it with linear games.

No, it has been almost assuredly delayed to
This holiday. They know people will be pissed so they are waiting for the right time to say it to soften the blow. They probably want to
Show gameplay again then announce a firm
Holiday date this november, and announce any collectors editions they have as well

I'm risking and voting no. Starfield is gonna be their holiday game. And Hellblade is 2024.

With Zelda and FFXVI stealing the scene, I don't think a H1 release is a wise choice.

If it launches I'm gonna play it, bugs and all.
Same here as I cannot wait to get my hands on it no matter how buggy it will likely be.

Just my 2 cents but if it was coming in the next 3-4 months with how much Phil loves to talk he would be tweeting weekly he was playing it and loving it and can't wait to share it with all of us

Maybe the PR green machine kicks in full force very soon but things are too quiet right now.

2nd half. Willing to never watch another stupid Avatar movie if I’m wrong (same if I’m right).

Avatar: The Last Airbender is another story though.
 
Are people forgetting they said Starfield is after Redfall? So unless Starfield launched in June it would HAVE to launch in H2.

Well its not coming out on Saturday or Sunday.
So if it comes out July 3rd thats very clearly H2.
If it comes out June 30th thats H1

So there is a very very clear divide between H1 and H2.


You say you are willing to bet, well then put your avatar where your keyboard is.

Yeah they have until end of June. If its first week July that's still a H2 date and I'll wear my avatar with pride.

But that's what I'm saying, it's so close that it's not a very interesting bet to me. It's like betting on a coin flip. God of War bet was better because it had a minimum of a 1.5 month buffer and realistically if it was delayed it wouldn't be until January.

Give me odds on "Starfield to release after August" and I might take it.

What the hell are you talking about man?

Whats the difference between saying "before or after July 1st" and saying "before or after August 1st"???

Well what if it releases July 31st theres only one day between July and August.
Its like betting on a coin flip...yada yada yada.

We can do that over and over for pretty much any month, quarter or half.
