Did he tweeted this info before the official delaying statement? Or just flexing his "insider knowledge"

 

[sircaw]

I mean this is a massive blow for sure, but on the positive side, at least it will release in a better state.

Not saying they will remove all the bugs, it's a Bethesda game after all, but it will be better.

To my green rat friends, hug time.

 

[MaKTaiL]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA.

People were offended when I said Starfield was never even close to being finished since all they showed was concept arts and there was NO CHANCE they would be able to release it this year like they promised.

 

[01011001]

I bet noone saw this coming AT ALL

for real tho, why have such unrealistic release dates? everyone in their right mind knew this would never be zhe actual release date

 

[Urban]

Maybe they need more time to make it work on Xbox one S

Can please Elon Musk buy Xbox and made people there to work.

 

[nominedomine]

Unbelievable, they dangled that carrot in front of people to get those subs promising AAA games day one and the console will be more than two years old with very little to show in that department.

Xbox fans were hyping this game so much that I knew it wasn't gonna go right, that is how it always goes for them unfortunately.

I can only imagine the shape the game must be at if Bethesda of all studios decided it wasn't ready to launch.

 

[Thirty7ven]

Good thing sure maybe I guess, more like a necessity.

 

[DukeNukem00]

Surely if it's that bad to dub it "The next Cyberpunk" then a few extra months can't be doing all that many favours for it?

We will see, I remain cautiously optimistic, either way it's a winning scenario, we either get a great game or more Bugthesda memes.

First half of 2023 is not a few months, its more than a year if they target june 2023

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Just another Forza then?

Jaffe is right about their product management, it’s terrible.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Yep. A lot of people got triggered with the idea of a delay (swearing that Bethesda 'Is built different'). But if you look at the industry overall...delays have become the norm. And Bethesda is not this magic unicorn immune to the pressures and difficulties of AAA development.

I doubt it'll be that long a delay as they need to get this out. And Bethesda games are buggy messes at the best of times so this must be a SPECIAL case.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Wow......if "Next Cyberpunk" is being floated around, maybe delay a full year then.

 

[nominedomine]

It always was.

 

[Flabagast]

Ouch.

So no next gen only AAA games this year. This is pathetic.

 

[MaKTaiL]

Wasn't Starfield announced a decade ago? what a fuck is going on over there.

They are too busy making some concept arts.

 

[retsof624]

They have NOTHING coming this year as far as we know. Not a god damn thing. Shits crazy

 

[Little Chicken]

Welp, it seems Microsoft will be throwing money at third parties for day one Game Pass releases for the rest of 2022.

 

[Aguero9320]

Sensible IMO. They know if it’s not ready. And we’ve seen what the mob can do to a previously beloved developer if they put something out too soon…

I don’t care about Redfall (not yet any way) but I want Starfield to be great.

 

[Draugoth]

Wow......if "Next Cyberpunk" is being floated around, maybe delay a full year then......lol

Game was coming out in 6 months from now, so if they release in June 2023, they got an extra year

[AJUMP23]

Why would any developer confide in this guy.

 

[DJ12]

Fair play to MS/Bethesda on this.

But given the utter bug fests Bethesda usually release, I'm guess first half of 2023 is also going to be a bit of a stretch.

I think he talked about Stafield being extremely early in development. No idea if he hinted at a delay though.

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

Put my Series X up for sale this morning, already sold my PS5. This gen has been the biggest limp dick gen yet. I will buy back in in a year or two when things start to pick up.

If anyone subscribed to Game Pass for a game that wasn't supposed to be out until November in the first place, that's on them.

 

[Shits_McGiggles]

If even the devs are comparing Starfield to Cyberpunk, then not even a delay to 2023 is going to save this project from what it sounds like. I’m hoping this isn’t another mismanaged project from Hell.

 

[MaKTaiL]

Ouch.

So no next gen only AAA games this year. This is pathetic.

You are forgetting about Gotham Knights!

 

[ManaByte]

Ouch.

So no next gen only AAA games this year. This is pathetic.

UbiSoft has you covered.

 

[Thirty7ven]

It’s funny that people actually think Starfield development affects God of War in any way shape or form, the kool aid has really frozen some folks brains.

 

[Umbasaborne]

Maybe they shouldnt have announced a release date they couldnt hit. Fucking liars

I hope to see the same energy in the Ragnarok thread

[MiguelItUp]

Can't say I'm too shocked about this, lol.

 

[Jayjayhd34]

I think he's referring to the 1st time!

It was trademarked in 2013 and announced in 2018

 

[TheRedRiders]

I’m sure people are upset, but it’s always better to have a polished game rather than one which is incomplete and riddled with bugs.

Developers and publishers need to be more comfortable with delays, the last thing we want for the games we love is for them to get Cyberpunk’d.

 

[reksveks]

Ouch.

So no next gen only AAA games this year. This is pathetic.

Do we count Forza if it comes out?

 

[DonJorginho]

Backwards compatibility is the only thing keeping me from selling my Series X right now, stacked my gamepass in prep for this recently as well....

[STARSBarry]

Well this is a shame, but would you rather have them release a broken game that the community then has to spend years fixing for them, or have them delay to release a broken game that the community then has to spend years fixing for them?

What? This is Bethesda here, that's the outcome every time.

 

[THEAP99]

Remember when people said 2022 was going to be a stacked year for gaming?

 

[Umbasaborne]

Yep, its 2020 all over again

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

surprised..... I am not.
