@boxerbunny I think it had to do with his black hole manipulation that started turning him mentally insane so he had to be brought into a psych ward.
@maxissakitsune Maybe this is just me, but part of the marketing is coaxing journalists into giving glowing reviews so that it looks good on their accolades trailer. Hogwarts did this with IGN where, despite a 9/10, it was still criticized in the review itself.
Bethesda for years has had big marketing pushes and still release lemons (Fallout 76 and its "16x detail" claim sticks out in my mind).
