It's also a funny thought experiment. If you waited a year for the price to drop, you'd basically have a continuous set of games you play a year later. If you don't play every game on day 1, but day 366, you still have the exact same amount of games to play. But you also have the bonus of patches and lower cost.

The only reason you wouldn't want to wait is for multiplayer games where typically the rush is the best time to play.

And I feel like Starfield is a better comparison. In fact, I had an almost identical conversation when it released. I said it looked like shit and wasn't worth the price, and then got met with a deluge of "stop being poor." Whoops, turns out I was right to wait. Because I found out that I didn't want to play it ever. $70 in my pocket and no time wasted on a crap game.
So wait... you waited to buy a game you didn't want to play, and that's proof that people shouldn't buy games they DO want to play?

Yep, finally found the option for it. Thank fuck. I should be able to stop kicking people I want to talk too now.

Next problem, I cannot for the life of me work out how to give items to NPCs that require them for a quest. Specifically, Ore for the Rhett the Blacksmith. -- update -- you don't give the ores to him, you give them to his assistant outside of town marked with a GIANT FUCKING RED X.

God damnit.

Well, I got the game for Xbox Series X, game looks great on quality mode with HDR on. It doesn’t look as good as it does on high end pc but it’s good enough for me.

Only had a few minutes to play, only like 15 minutes or so, have to watch hockey, every game is important.

Looking forward to playing more, the little intro was interesting enough to grab me.

Curious about something. Will spoiler it, though its super early on.

Doing the Main quest, you talk to a beggar outside the Inn where you had the arm wrestling game and go down into the Sewer. For those that looked around and found a Treasure Chest, what did you get from it? Curious if its a static item or RNG. I got a plate helm. Also, there were some boxes you could pick up from the little altar by the noble lady, dont be like me and almost sell them. One of them gives you a ring.

Anyone else having an issue with it detecting an Xbox controller on PC? I cant find the option anywhere to turn it to controller from keyboard.
