You do realize storage drives aren’t exactly expensive?
Not expensive, but it's another expense that not everyone can drop immediately.
For most it would be a choice of upgrading to a new drive or getting two games.
Sure. And of course it remains to be seen whether Starfield is worth it, but it's undeniable that a game of this magnitude isn't a common occurrence. If they realize the game's potential, then missing out on it because of a relatively inexpensive hardware upgrade seems like a shame.
Is a game like Starfield “missable” though? Games like this’ll realistically be accessible for years (decades?) to come (not even counting Bethesda’s love of rereleasing their latest hit a la Skyrim lol). They might miss out on the cultural discussion if the game’s a hit though, that’s definitely a trade-off of late adoption, like what I’m experiencing with BG3 lol.
Yeah that’s fair. It might even be worth waiting a year so the community can fix all the bugs :p I know I’m too impulsive to wait that long though. Played through Cyberpunk at launch and loved it!
