What made you previously decide not to buy it?

[โ€“] PeckerBrown@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I own many games that I impulse buy, but find out that I don't care for. That gets expensive.

Now I'm much more selective, and tend to wait until the game's been out long enough to get patches, updates, and reviews.

Add my lack of interest in any Todd Howard product until ES6, which I may not live long enough to play (boomer puke here), as well as the offhanded arrogance of his 'upgrade your PC' statement, and that about covers why I've decided not to buy Starfield.
