Oh, I barely buy games nowadays. I aim for games that are finished.

It’s just that a lot of problems with the gaming industry at large could be fixed if release dates weren’t announced until the game is actually release ready. It bugs me that even CS stumbles on this.

The game is going straight on Xbox gamepass right? It might be too late for them to delay the release date, I’m not sure how that works.

That's what I was thinking. I know releases have been delayed on GamePass before, but I'm also not sure how easily that is done. The couple content creators I saw seemed to have what would be "normal" FPS for C:S1, so maybe CO is willing to release like that as the player base is already used to it, then optimise later. Could be completely wrong, but I hope not.
