Oh, they’re prepared. Bethesda already has the “We’re doing our best, the patch is coming soon, all video games launch with bugs” statement ready. The “The bugs aren’t even that bad, gamers are so fucking entitled” statement has already been written as well.

Naturally, they’ve also already written out the heartfelt “Please stop sending us death threats over this” statement, soon to be followed by my personal favorite: the “We were framed” statement, after people inevitably post screenshots showing how all the death threats each developer’s Twitter account gets are identical except for the ones that say “as an AI I cannot send hateful messages”.
