That stuff really should have been in there before the game went Gold. This proves the game was rushed for some crappy deadline and it ruined customer experience. Anyone would have waited one more quarter for more polish and basic functions of the game.

So wait. Nothing stopping anyone from doing so.

Or just pirate the game, you know, until its actually done.

Maybe that's the issue in the quoted post... the pirated 1.0 version won't get DLSS. :roll:

Some quest givers and randos floating or "ascending" but a reload fixed it. Other than that it does run fine. Luckily mods make it a lot better.

The things that bug me are the same locations; most visible in caves and abandoned mines (it really went downhill with complex cave systems). The constant loading; take-off/landings, enter/exit of buildings/caves, even some shops inside cities. The stupid simple side quests which are just fetch quests without any form of surprises. The lack of expressions of the characters (especially compared to BG3 or TW3), the annoying and (sometimes?) dumb followers (this hasn't changed at all from previous Bethesda games). My list is bigger but I'll end it here.

All-in-all this isn't goty worth imo...yet?

People who can't pay for games will not have the money for anything DLSS compatible. /s

The only really annoying problem I found is that after reloading a save during the game the actual follower forget to manifest itself and I find myself alone wherever I am with no extra firepower or carrying capacity. Whenever this happens I have to go back to the ship and do a little juggle with the crew to make the astral follower reappear. Apart from that, game's good. Well, I'm a hoarder/explorer so for me it's a bit overwhelming. OpenWorld cranked up to 9000. I have 60 hours of "WHAT'S THAT?!?" in the game. My mission board is a mess with like 30+ pending jobs and 20+ activities waiting to be started. :laugh:

Or maybe they can't pay for games because their life's savings (or that of their parents) was spent on something DLSS compatible.

Or life got in the way.

But then, the lack of DLSS at launch isn't their biggest problem.
