Bethesda has announced that Starfield and Redfall have been delayed to "the first half of 2023".

Announced by Bethesda on Twitter (below), no specific reasons were given for the delays, other than to say that the teams "want to ensure that you receive the best, most polished versions of them."


Thoughts on this everyone?
I hate the game being delayed, but I would rather it be done right and not have another CyberPunk disaster.

Or even Fallout 76? Don't release the game if it's not ready, not sure why top game companies want to act like a solo developer releasing their game like its early access. Hopefully Bethesda learned from its mistakes, but I doubt it.

I agree with this; however, it's hard to argue that Starfield has been rushed considering it was announced.

Usually this is a sign of scope creep or bad project management.

How does xbox manage to keep fricking up their exclusives??? Devs are so lazy these days. Gaming isn't what it used to be. Sucks.

More time to work on my backlog this year. When life give you lemons and all that.

I'm all for pushing it back if it means a better game.

While I play Halo Infinite almost daily and it still has big problems, I can only imagine how bad it would've been if they didn't push it back a year

76 definitely should've been pushed back. Maybe Bethesda learned that lesson

All games today are grappling with scale. The larger the moonshot, the more difficult it is to scale server architecture. There's also the discussion of the cost of maintaining the game long-term. Many of this can't be planned in advance, which is why it's so important to recognize that a game claiming to be as emminse as Starfield is probably going to experience tons of delays.

Sea of Thieves is an example of a great concept that needed another year to develop.

Pretty sure this just means GOW is now getting delayed.

Elden Ring fans are rejoicing.

As an ER fan, I am not rejoicing over an eventual GOW delay.

If it's not good/polished then delay, as long as it doesn't turn into Star Citizen kind of delay.

Doesn’t mean shite. Cyberpunk was delayed as well and was still shite.

Frustrating because this probably pushes back the next Elder Scrolls by at least a year too.

The worst part about this is this also means the next Elder Scrolls game is delayed. FUCCCK
