Which is not something I'm going to do personally, but the information may benefit someone. I'm still torn between getting it on Steam or just Game Pass.

I can't seem to find whether it will be Play Anywhere.

Why would you want early access for what will likely be a buggy launch? Better to wait a month or so and at least play after the launch issues.

Even good launches like TOTK benefitted from waiting with the performance patches.

Fallout 4's launch was actually pretty stable, with exception of Playstation though, but that's not an issue now, is it?

I bought it on launch and I really don't remember having any issues. I'm always surprised it has such a bad rep.

Always important to remember that lots of opinions people are posting online are just things they read somewhere and are repeating.

I wonder how much launch instability like this is a result of hardware variation. Like, Redfall by all reddit accounts should be a waterfall of bugs, but I barely experienced any. Nothing more than in any popular Bethesda game, anyway.

Obviously plenty of games manage to launch without these issues - I'm not profering this thought as an excuse for it, just curious.

Edit: I like Redfall as a game, too. I almost didn't try it at all because its reputation makes out like it's the worst game ever with zero redeeming qualities at all.
