Support NeoGAF

[GigaBowser]

Considering the sheer breadth of content this game is going to have, the complex NPC structure and persistent living, breathing worlds that Bethesda brings, I can say without a doubt that this is my most hyped game and perhaps my first true glimpse into next gen. I loved The Outer Worlds and this looks to outdo it in every way imaginable. Even the combat is a huge step up, not to mention the addition of space flight and thousand planets to explore. Forget what they told ya, I think we just may be in for the game of the forever.

Starfield's main quest designer is Will Shen, the guy who delivered Far Harbor.

If you haven't played through the DLC, the writing there is incredibly well versed. I ended up choosing different resolutions for the main story, which I never do. It's full of amazing characters with a surprising level of depth. Absolutely night and day difference between that and the base game.

If you add up the sum of its parts, this could be something really, really special.

I mean it is ambitious, but that could be what kills it... ambition + Bethesda's track record is not a combination that screams confidence

Yeah this is weird

Phil?

Phil?

Todd, I think.

I mean I am all for people being excited about a game but this looks more Ambassador spin than normal fan talk.

Geez some of these replies. Not all that much shown these to be hyped about these days (Dragon's Dogma 2 for me but we've seen nothing), and we have a true epic headed our way.

tbh i am not even sure if you are trolling at that stage with that opening post.

Concur. In an age of soulless remakes, sequels, and play-it-safe design by committee trash Bethesda is still aiming for the stars. Flaws aside, they still are ambitious.

 

[Matt_Fox]

OP I said something similarly positive on page one of the announcement thread last week. This game looks incredible to me.

...it was pretty depressing seeing people make hateful, apathetic, and dismissive posts later in that thread. I thought this was a forum to celebrate and be passionate about games, but I guess its human nature. When something gets set on a pedestal then other people are going to try and knock it down.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

yup, going to suck up a bunch of my time

 

[RyRy93]

I hope it's great and it very well could be but I just have this feeling that Crowbcat will have a field day

 

[Banjo64]

It’s going to be an incredible game, one of the generations best. In Godd we trust.

 

[Morrie’s wig shop]

Yeah, it’s gonna be something special. I think it looks really good and pretty much enjoyed everything I saw about it.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I look forward to playing this in late 2024

[Lukaku's First Touch]

Looks like a no man sky clone, same with all the probably bullshit promises.

 

[Riky]

Expectations were high but they look like they'll meet them, just one aspect like the ship building will consume hours of time, spent hundreds of hours on Fallout and this looks magnitudes bigger, can't wait.

 

[Lokaum D+]

LoL

Never go full retard.

Mental illness is a serious thing. I wonder if GAF mods support this kind of language on this site.

Since you take stuff like that seriously on an internet board maybe you're the one who should get himself checked. Also there is always "reeeeeeeeeee" if you "feel" that every single word needs to be checked for possible offensiveness.....

They do. Anything else?

Are you a boilermaker in real life?

Stop trying to fabricate a problem.

I'm middle management and I sort out everything woke in my teams with full upper management backing..
Get offended on someone else's behalf where this nonsense is wanted.
Don't go full retard on GAF please

 

[MadchesterManc]

I'm nowhere near as hyped about Starfield as some on GAF seem to be, hell I'm not even hyped at all, but it does at least sound promising enough so far. Best to always go in a tad cynical and end up pleasantly surprised considering the porkies Todd Howard can tell

 

[Kev Kev]

fuuuuuuuuuck YES!!!

cant wait for this game. i have some concerns, as everyone should, bc its bethesda lol. but oblivion, skyrim, fallout 3 and 4 are some of my favorite games of all time and i dont see starfield being any different. the trailer and screen shots have already surpassed my expectations.

the most important questions are how does the game feel, how does it run, is it fun, etc. i wont be able to make those judgements until im actually playing the game of course, but everything theyve shown looks pretty promising (although not perfect, of course).

praying for MS to get into VR one day, or if this does come to PS one day maybe they can put it on PSVR2 (which i will be getting day one). damn good time to be a gamer

[NahaNago]

Mostly from what I've seen what I like the most is the cities. I just like the grungy punk like look. The alien sci fi worlds looked boring. The I guess outpost and mining(?) facilities looked dull as well.

Other than that this E3 showcase of the game killed the majority of my interest in the game.

While I agree they are being ambitious and the game looks amazing, lets not conveniently forget this is the same company that re-released Skyrim countless times.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

If you are fan of Bethesda games and their gameplay loop, you will love it. Else it will be jarring due to technical "qualities".

Hopefully OP is already their fan. Else could be monumental disappointment.

I love Fallout but am lukewarm over TES. So am cautiously optimistic since it looks more like Fallout.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

 

[Wildebeest]

It's what is called a curates egg. The parts they showed which looked clunky or bad spoiled the impression of everything else.

 

[Pelta88]

Looks mediocre. And you're using CGI images to make your point.

Such as this from the first CGI trailer.

 

[mansoor1980]

whos laughing now

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Just like cyberpunk.....

 

[onesvenus]

I love the ambition it seems to have. As a really big fan of sci-fi I hope the story is great.
Graphics have been greatly criticized but they are good enough for me. The only thing I'd love them to fix is the hit feedback on enemies, most of the times they don't react at all

 

[lucius]

That post it looks nice but why did it in motion look really rough, like more than a year away rough. Not just bad quality feeds the 4k one even. I hope it’s great I spent 100’s of hours with some of their past games but I am not so sure about this yet.
