Oh my god, next to Deathloop, I have never hated and despised a game prior to its release in my life.
The amount of talk talk talk about the game without ANYTHING TO SHOW FOR is so godddamn annoying.

The last time I enjoyed a Bethesda game was Oblivion on 360. That was more to do with being amazed at the open world. Something I really didn't have much experience with in games at that point. I tried to like Skyrim but it just never landed with me. I also never cared much for Fallout. I'm not big into the post-nuclear apocalypse setting in games and it feeling like Elder Scrolls with guns turned me off. Now with Starfield, I love space sci-fi settings so it automatically has my attention. My hope is that it doesn't FEEL like Elder Scrolls or Fallout. I'd love for it to feel like a big departure from your typical Bethesda game.

Its using the same engine, and they are describing it at skyrim in space so i wouldn’t expect much else

It'll be another open world first-person game like all their other open-world first-person games. I never really got the pull of games like Skyrim so I'm assuming I won't with this either.

If the modding scene is anything like Skyrim or Fallout 4 this is an accurate statement. I expect Starfield will be a time vampire of epic proportion even without mods. If they have a version of Creation Kit for Starfield I will just hook it right to my veins.

This new Bethesda under the leadership of Lord the Great Phill Spencer aka Savior of Xbox and hero of gaming. Expect nothing but greatness from Starfield.

Skyrim is one of the best game of all time so how is that a knock on Starfield?
i hope it as good as Skyrim

Im the opposite of this i want more Hardcore RPG elements more dialogue more quest & more choices and consequences & romance and betrayal and murder
I want the full blown RPG experience where you can make your characters how you want with no strings attached

This is undoubtedly the biggest game I’m looking forward to in 2022 so I can’t wait for them to show it off.
saying that, they could slow down on talking and wait a Little over 2 months to show us.
but deffo put me in the camp that this game is going to be huge. Bigger than anything else this year imo.

I think you misunderstand me. I want those things too. I just don't want it to mechanically feel like Elder Scrolls or Fallout

To all younglings, whining about gameplay
When was the last time Bethesda showed gameplay earlier than E3 of that same release year?

And on top of that, why would they show gameplay now, randomly in March for their biggest game when there's a conference in June...To all younglings, whining about gameplay

This game has “delayed to holiday 2023” written all over it.

Fallout 3 and New Vegas were great and 4 was still good so is Elder Scrolls 4 & 5
i don't know what you are talking about lol
Bethesda have been doing their style of open world RPG since the early 1990's if you don't like Elder Scrolls or Fallout then Starfield might not be the game for you

Console exclusive.

Is this game build using Creation Engine? I hope so. I know it's getting a lot of hate but I find it amazing. The fact that you can move and place objects and they stay there for the entire playthrough always blows my mind.
They nailed the Explore → Salvage → Build gameplay loop in Fallout 4.
If they can combine that with compelling quests we might have a classic in the making.

I swear to God some people hate on this game just because it's exclusive to Xbox. A new IP from Bethesda should be celebrated by gamers everywhere.
Of course lol. I forgot where I was for a second.

It will be interesting to see what can do with that SSD other than just faster loading times.
This game has disappointment written all over it. People are overhyping this way to much and expectations are sky high. Basically everything other than it becoming an instant classic, will be a failure.
It still needs to run on PC's with mechanical drives. I'm pretty sure they are not gonna cut all those people out, just like that. So you're not gonna see any game design built around the SSD,

It's probably the biggest release of this generation, or at least until Elder Scrolls VI arrives.

1. No it does not need to run on PC's HDDs, even cross-gen games today require or "strongly recommend" SSD storage in minimum system requirements.
2. Hyping sky high? Where?
People are just hyped about Todd's new AAA epic. Like they were hyped for his previous single player games.
People remember Bethesda's pedigree.
We remember how each their game generated colossal influential waves across the industry, placed itself into pop culture and was played for a decade, shaping industry landscape.
So people are hyped that Starfield will be no different.
Do you think an SSD will be the minimum requirement and the game will not run on HDD?
Biggest in terms of what? I you are talking about fan egagement and participation, I believe Hogwarts and Spider-Man 2 are bigger.
Then let's hope for instant classic.
Absolutely. I hope they can turn the pressure into a positive thing.
So you are expecting they will lock out everyone still using an HDD only? That will be interesting to see. Especially since it's a MS exclusive and day one on GP.
Where? Are you serious? I have never seen a game hyped so much, with so little that's been showed. I'm seeing twitter dudes acting like it's the next coming of Christ. So even with that pedigree, I don't get it. I love Insomniac, I love Wolverine, but I can't be hyped about it yet, when all I have is a CGI trailer. Maybe I'm just more down to earth and setting my expectations accordingly.

I think it's plausible, considering they're not releasing the game on old consoles.

If they come out this year I still doubt it, PC on day one makes it much bigger than any console exclusive and Hogwarts doesn't even look good let alone compete with a Bethesda RPG.

Surely not the biggest, but how on earth Spider-Man and Hogwarts could possibly top Starfield's fan engagement and participation?
Bethesda's fans stick to their games for decades,
overload fandom forums with countless threads,
make whole game-sized mods and content,
dedicate their skills to perform music from their favourite games,
publish the actual Cookbooks from their favourite universes.
I mean, the level of fan engagement, dedication and participation with Bethesda's games, has always been one of the unprecedented phenomenons of gaming industry.

There will be three voice actors for every single npc. Also they'll all say the same lines as each other for some reason.
Yeah I can't imagine that happening. Like you said they already lock out last gen players on top of PS players with the Bethesda buy out. Locking out HDD PC's will be disastrous for the player count.
I think you are severely underestimating how big the Harry Potter and Spider-Man fanbase is. And I find it hilarious you somehow think Bethesda RPG's look good. Hogwarts looks more polished than most Bethesda RPG's.
But based on YouTube engagement, sorted by views:
Hogwarts Legacy reveal trailer: 12 months ago, 28 million views
Spider-Man 2 reveal trailer: 6 months ago, 22 million views
Starfield teaser trailer: 9 months ago, 16 million views (the official announcement is sitting 3.5 million and was uploaded 3 years ago)
Even God of War Ragnarok reveal trailer is already at 13 million in only 6 months.
And I get it yes, Hogwarts and Spidey are globally loved movie franchises with millions of fans not even interested in videogames, but it also shows calling Starfield a bigger release is somewhat short sighted.

Im not a western RPG fan I find the gameplay on them sub par
Maybe this game will be a technical achievement considering it is next gen only so that is a plus
We need to see the game in action first if it is good then I will renew my sub just to play it

“…over how many bugs the game has, and the amount we’re going to charge you for extras”.
Why, Yes Todd. We believe you.

Just look at the sales of the games then...
Spiderman - 13mil
Skyrim - 30mil
Harry Potter games - Never that much.

cry cry.
god damnit how hard can it be to say that Starfield will be the biggest IP launch this year and possibly this generation.
People in here trying to undermine the BEHEMOTH that Bethesda Game Studios is get me laughing all the time.
Its almost dinner time folks. Get your crow forks ready!

Starfield Dev: "Players Are Gonna Lose Their Minds"
"It's been so awe-inspiring watching Starfield morph into this amazing game, little by little, and with us covering SO much new ground."www.gamespot.com
"Bethesda Game Studios veteran Emil Pagliarulo, who has worked at the Fallout and Elder Scrolls studio for 19 years, has shared a little more insight on Starfield. In an employee profile on Bethesda's website, the developer said the sci-fi RPG is going to offer "something really special" that will make players go wild.
"Saying you're going to create the studio’s first new IP in twenty years is one thing. Actually pulling that off, that's a different story," Pagliarulo said. "It's been so awe-inspiring watching Starfield morph into this amazing game, little by little, and with us covering SO much new ground."
