I would say 40 dollars should have been the base price. It was the price of a brand new game and this one clearly had a facelift. Most of my favorite bugs are even still there lol
Yeah, I didn't buy Starfield but I'm all over a good remake of a good game. Maybe they'll eventually realize we like the older games for a reason and try to put that in their newer stuff. Either way, not releasing garbage is a fine strategy by me. I'll eat crow if they release this remake 7 different times over the next 10 years though.
A lot of those new Unreal Engine "technologies" are quite terrible for the framerate. They try to make unoptimized scenes bearable, but traditional optimization techniques are so much faster, and adding Lumen/Nanite whatever on top just slows things down again.
