I will come back to this post in September to see if I was right lol

Biggest concerning signs:

30 FPS lock on xbox, there's no way to spin that positively, absolute fail
Predatory pre-order bonus skins to get people to buy before they know what they're actually going to experience (buggy shitshow)
Countless attempts to hype up the game and huge random assurances from the devs
Preemptively admitting the game has jank and trying to make it seem okay lol

At least the bugs will be absolutely hilarious I think.

Im super hyped about the game. preordered the deluxe edition to get the predatory 5 days early access that lands over a 3 day weekend...

It's going to be janky. The preorder bonus skins will be garbage. It's going to be a bad PC port that has issues with FPS and performance... They probably broke the cardinal rule and linked the physics to the frame rate and it's going to fuck everything up... Youre probably going to have load screens when you enter/leave your ship or any building just like every TES/Fallout game...

Still excited for it!
