This was already true, but is even more so now - Bethesda should make console commands available on Xbox immediately. Besides the fact that there was no reason to restrict them to PC players in the first place, they're almost certain to be necessary for all sorts of weird troubleshooting that's likely to come up in any game this big.
I'm playing the game pass version and in the early game I softlocked myself by jumping behind something that I shouldn't have and I wasn't able to fast travel to my ship because they were enemies nearby. I downloaded the PC version, accessed the console commands, got myself out, saved, then loaded it on my Xbox and the issue was fixed. But I really wish I could have just plugged a keyboard into my Xbox and fixed it in a few seconds rather than waiting on 140GB to download and praying it would work on my 2 year old laptop.
Yeah, I didn‘t finish Fallout NV because a bug stopped me from starting a quest and I didn‘t want to start all over. There were all kinds of solutions via console commands on PC but none on Xbox ofc. I hope something like this won‘t happen in Starfield
It will! Bethesda is as Bethesda does
I have a feeling Microsoft doesn’t want those on their console.
