The brand will be exploiting the commercial agreement with Bethesda by giving a digital copy of the highly anticipated RPG to those who purchase selected models of its CPUs.
This is a bad omen for starfield imo. All the games i got with my AMD components last year (e.g. forspoken) were garbage. Maybe Bethesda is anticipating that they can’t keep up with the hype around the game which will be badly optimized or buggy at launch (like any other bethesda game) and try to save some profit.
But then again, most gamers have the worst impulse control and will even buy a steaming piece of shit if there’s a possibility to preorder it.
that’s a pretty weird take. just because other games that came with AMD were bad, doesn’t mean all of them are. Star Wars Jedi Survivor, Last Of Us Part 1, Uncharted, Far Cry 6, Deathloop, Borderlands 3, The Outer Worlds… none of those are bad games. i think game bundles just represent the general gaming experience. some games are good, some are bad. but just because a game comes in a bundle, doesn’t automatically mean that it will suck.
Well, those games you listed are good indeed, maybe i just bought my gear at a bad time. It just confuses me a little this happens to a game that is being waited for so badly. If they would be confident to successfully sell their game to end users, they wouldn’t need to force it on AMDs customers. On the other hand, maybe AMD is the one profiting from this deal since it could push their sold units.
One of the worst games to bundle as it’ll be on GamePass
