Shhhhhhh…
Just let your main HDD get encrypted.
The fact that the game hasn't been fully released yet and they are including a DLC if you buy the premium version, is just asking me to pirate it.
From what i've seen of the game, it's not even worth the bandwidth to pirate it.

Maybe I'm just old but $70 base is too much for any game let alone one from a studio with known issues
Games have been the same price for over thirty years, they've not changed with inflation and production costs have skyrocketed. To an extent the increased market has helped keep costs down for the consumer but it's not unreasonable to see prices shift upwards.
What about the cost of disc media that's absolutely disappeared? That was a huge chunk of the overhead. Logistics to get the copies to all the stores, etc.
Now it's just electricity and servers to download from.
Do you ever notice that no one ever talks about all the advancements that saved money? Of course not, cause then they'd never be able to justify continually hiking the prices up.

The customer base has increased more than a thousandfold. If anything prices should go down.

Eh, to me I usually just convert it to $ per hour of enjoyment. Will I get 10 hours of enjoyment? 100? 1000?
If it's a great game and I think I'll get 1000 hours out of it, even if it's $70 that's like $0.07 per hour.
Compare that to paying $30 to go see a 1.5 hour movie at the theater and you're doing pretty darn good I think. Even if you only get 10 hours out of it thats $7 an hour for entertainment vs the $20 an hour for a movie.

I never pre order games
I never buy games full price
And I definitely do not buy Bethesda games before playing them and seeing how broken they are and if I enjoy them.
I never ever bought a Bethesda game before cracking it and playing for at least a few hours. Bethesda just does not deserve it.

I mean if a demo isn't being offered what else can you do?

Eh. By the time I have hardware that can actually play Starfield, it'll be a GoG giveaway.
Reading all the comments defending a $70 game with zero day DLC is just bewildering. I mean, HOW MUCH of a fucking cuck do you have to be to not only accept it, but to DEFEND it? You people deserve all the shit you get for being peasants. The rest of us sail the high seas, YARR!

The real cost isn't the game. It's the new computer you'll need to play it.

Lol, without reading the caption I just assumed this was a shit post comparing Johnny Depp's likeliness to Jack Sparrow, and I laughed pretty hard at that.
If you don't want to sail the high seas you can also get it on xbox game pass for like $10 for the month once it's out for the plebs in like a week.

Apparently it's bundled in with AMDs new cards. I've been itching for an upgrade for a while now, and I could finally get away from Nvidia

Bruh that's funny
Shit, just spend $1200 on a new PC and it's freeeeeeeee...I'm so poor now....
The issue is with the size of the game (120gb + patches later) and with the other (graphics card, cpu and ram) requirements.
