      Didn’t Oblivion secretly reboot the Xbox during long loading screens?

      That’s the oldest trick in the book: appealing to nostalgia to sell more copies. Bethesda did it again!

    It’d be more news-worthy if Bethesda released a game that DIDN’T start crashing more the longer you played. I remember dealing with this in Fallout 3. Here we are, 15 years later…

    Basically, the game is telling players to stop wasting their time.

    Endgame was brutal. It was a 50/50 chance if you paused to save while moving it would crash.

      I played for around 150 hours and didn’t have crashing issues. What would you call endgame for Starfield?

        I was at around 55 hrs during endgame, which was finishing the main story line after doing most of the side quests. I think I had 1 main base with 10 - 20 buildings and equipment. I was playing on a series S. I am boggled you didn’t have many crashes, I’ve seen hundreds of reports of similar issues when I was trying to figure out what was going on.

          I played on PC on the Steam version of the game. I only bothered with bases on my first playthrough. I don’t remember how long my first playthrough lasted.

      Takes me back to the days of Morrowind. Saving in Vvardenfell was also better enjoyed while not moving. Must be that NetImmerse legacy. 😋
