Honestly I'm expecting a hot steaming pile of garbage given their trajectory. Just another fantasy veneer on the same tired Bethesda formula rife with bugs. My expectations are so low, in fact, my plan is to wait for a good sale to get it, or until I hear that it's released in a playable state but still post release.

That should be your approach to 100% of games.

Yup it is. Most recent example is Space Marine 2. I don't have a problem paying full price if the review consensus is that it's good enough to warrant it. So I waited for the reviews, and my most trusted reviewers lavished it so I bought it day one. Lo and behold it lived up.

I don't expect the same for ES6.

Same, I didn't want to go in early on that game but I'm very happy I did.

It just good, clean and terribly unwholesome fun.
