This, in a nutshell. That said, Bethesda needs a *serious* win after the Fortnite 76 debacle, and they know it. I actually expect it to be pretty good. But. BG3 I have more faith in. And it just might be that BG3 shines a negative light on Starfield. I hope Starfield is awesome, though and it scratches the need of everyone that paid for Star Citizen. Those poor people deserve at least something to play while they wait another twelve years for the money to run out.

Oh, definitely this. I'll play both for years to come.

For me, BG3 has a clear advantage because DOS2 was surprising delight and I’ve enjoyed the EA, where I was tremendously disappointed by Fallout 4 and nothing I have heard about Starfield is setting my reservations to ease. I hope Starfield is good, but I can’t blindly trust a Bethesda game will be good after their last missteps. I’m sure that to some extent that doubt is prevailing amongst many other gamers.
