Fuck that's bad. Though I'm not playing starfield I'm certainly paying attention to shit like this. Before 76 I would have been a fully committed fanboy pre-ordering most, if not all, Bethesda games. Between 76 and other shenanigans they had dropped sharply out of favor. I wasn't going to buy a game brand new until reviews came out (hence why I still haven't played starfield). They gained some favor back with the TV series as it seemed well done for just my kind of interest level. Now they're losing it again.
Are you worried they run out of copies or something?
Idk why the tv show would have gotten them any grace? As far as I know, all they did was let the property be bought and used by Amazon. Todd Howard executive produced, but that's not saying much. The show has nothing to do with them as a studio. They just lucked into a team who had something interesting planned with the IP.
