I mean...i'm not even interesting in this but finishing touches on a project as big as this one isn't something you can do in 3 months.

The game may be playable from the start until the end and still need a year of "finishing touches".

 

[ahtlas7]

I’m going to space!

 

[Gudji]

Finishing touches aka avoiding game crashes (it will still happen).

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Finishing touches?

 

[DeepEnigma]

Live look in,

 

[Josemayuste]

 

[Wohc]

One of the few games i'm really looking forward to. Can't wait.

 

[jhjfss]

 

[chromhound]

Don't know if i should believe that it will be release in 2022...

 

[AJUMP23]

Finishing touches take a year.

 

[Skifi28]

Just adding the last few bugs for us to find at launch.

 

[Kssio_Aug]

Hope they found the fun

If it's anything like Fallout, there's gonna be plenty of fun.

 

[fermcr]

Don't worry Bethesda... modders will put the finishing touches on the finishing touches.

 

[MOTM]

This is going to be what, 9 months of finishing touches?

Sounds about right. FF16 is going through more than 12 months of finishing touches. Game is playable from start to finish since a while now.

 

[Kokoloko85]

Its your time to surprise everyone Bethesda.

They are either gonna turn a new leaf and release a clean unbuggy game, or this game is gonna be a bug fest and “finishing” touches is gonna be a meme that puts Bethesda’s main studio one foot in the grave.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

[SteelCurtain 59]

Gotta love all the trolls in here, Bethesda games have just as many bugs as any massive open world game, and are generally way more complex. If you can't handle bugs you shouldn't be playing open world games, either that or you just don't like their games and want to fake concern because it's a meme that "cool" gamers use. Also it not being on Playstation has added another layer of trolling to the mix

Excited to see this, BGS main team hasn't had a miss in a very long time so I'm ready to see what masterpiece they create, June 12th can't come soon enough

 

[winjer]

Of course.
Because Bethesda never lied to us.

 

[Tomi]

Finishing Touches
Release date: 2025

 

[Metnut]

Hope this is better than Fallout76. Been a lonnnng while since these guys released something that I really enjoyed.

 

[PumpkinPie]

This must be the first time Bethesda has added finishing touches to a game

 

[AtomicStarving]

Can't wait until the modders fix the game

 

[SmokedMeat]

Sounds like marketing talk. From what we’ve heard the game wasn’t close to being finished.

 

[skit_data]

”Hmm, something is clearly missing, we need to apply the final touches…”

”Perfection.”

 

[Dirk Benedict]

Fallout 76 is currently very refined compared to how it released... but.. then the repetitiveness sinks in and you're doing the same fucking shit for the same currency, every day, for the same goal: End Game Gear and seemingly, gear that has no real use outside of the same shit you've been doing to get said gear.
It's frustrating. They need REAL event bosses that have destructive power/damage that require you to move. They should do more bosses like Earle Williams where you cannot standstill and pew pew. Bosses that have tons of hp, but give out great rewards.

 

[Fredrik]

You know whats confirmed for June 12?

Starfield

Awesome!
They should do finishing touches in 5 months and release it 11.11.22

 

[nominedomine]

The game is playable for beginning to end, all that is left at this point is to fix the bugs.

 

[Spaceman292]

BGS main team hasn't had a miss in a very long time

Not since their last game

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

The last 20% of work takes the same amount of time as the previous 80%.

 

[GymWolf]

Good, now we just need the finishing touches from modders and we have a deal.

 

[spartan30gr]

Sixteen more times for "Finishing touches

 

[SteelCurtain 59]

Not since their last game

The main team didn't work on that game (at least not to the extent they work on their main games), it was at most a side project supporting the B team.

 

[STARSBarry]

Ah yes... the finishing touches, don't get me wrong I am looking forward to Starfield but only after several years when the community has fixed its issues and added balloon tits.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Putting finishing touches on the game but couldn't make the 11/11/22 release?

Doubt and concern.

This literally makes no sense. You take extra time to polish because you feel it's needed obviously. In what way does delaying a game mean you're not actually doing the finishing touches?


Anyway, super excited for this!

 

[EverydayBeast]

Starfield has a lot of pressure on it.

 

[palpabl_purpura]

More Todd Howard bullcrap

 

[Negotiator101]

This is going to be what, 9 months of finishing touches?

Big game mate.

I’m hoping Starfield gives the freedom of Skyrim with a Mass Effect type of narrative.

 

[Hobbygaming]

Finishing touches. Lol.

Xbox CEO Phil Spencer believes Starfield will be a "hallmark for us" following the Bethesda acquisition

Todd Howard says that Bethesda is "putting the finishing touches on Starfield"

So 11-11-22 it is, they have 6 months so plenty of time to finishing the game...but what about the bugs?
On the other hand its Bugthesda so....11-11-22 it is , eat that GoWR....

 

[Negotiator101]

Starfield has a lot of pressure on it.

Yeah that would be the G-force.

 

[Topher]

This is going to be what, 9 months of finishing touches?

 

[Negotiator101]

This must be the first time Bethesda has added finishing touches to a game

That's the Phil Spencer effect.

 

[Starfield]

so much negativity...so much hatred

your minds are gonna be blown in 3 days.

You. Shall. See!

 

[Team Andromeda]

This is going to be what, 9 months of finishing touches?

if its a huge game why not?

 

[Ghost of Caelid]

Have they ever put finishing touches on their games?

they got like 3-4 game of the years...so yea?

 

[ButchCat]

You know there is something wrong with this industry when finishing touches requires an extra year.

 

[abacab driver]

You know there is something wrong with this industry when finishing touches requires an extra year.

Where are you people getting this info that Starfield is delayed a year? It could be delayed 3 months for all we know.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

My only question is whether this will be Skyrim/Fallout in Space - or like No Man Sky v. 1.0/Fallout 76 v. 1.0..

I'm hoping it's something fresh.

But if it has to be one of your choices, it better be a Skyrim/FO kind of game. Wont touch it if it's like NMS or 76.

 

[Robb]

Not sure why they wouldn’t have been able to launch the game in November if that’s the case.. To me, delaying it implies they stumbled upon some larger unexpected issues that needed fixing.
