but he's also almost never wrong and he actually didn't say a single bad thing about Starfield (yet)

Careful of what you wish.
My bad. He was talking about trailer there
The bad relationship was little bit ugly here

I know you are just trying to bait troll, but i'll answer you.
The game is made by Bethesda, the developers of the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series. Its their first new IP in 20 years, and has been described as Skyrim in space. Thats why.
You know its getting quite tiresome this campaign by certain sections to try and paint Bethesda as some no mark studio who only make broken games. All since they were bought up by Microsoft.
Fact is if Bethesda was still multiplatform, we would have endless Starfield threads on here.

Apparently he has a hate boner for naughty dog, and Santa Monica studios also.

Do you think main bethesda had the man power to help Austin studio for the entireproduction cycle, considering starfield and the engine overhaul?

Like others said, they made the elder scrolls.
That series is considered a part of gaming history. You are the center of the game. You can do whatever you want to do.
If startfield is from the studio that made those series, then expect a great open world, with rich exploration.

Yeah i also read that the vast majority of F76 was done by the Austin studio. Todd's whole 'it was a massive undertaking, and all outr studios were involved blah blah' was merely hype.
Ther are also quite a few Youtube vids that go in detail the story behind F76's developemnt. Although i dont know whre they get their info.
Fare thee well

No trolling at all on my part (we basically said the same thing). I genuinely think all hype is bad all the time, especially before gameplay footage and proper mechanics demonstrations. Using the track record of a company can be a pitfall too. Surely you've been around long enough to know that no studio is invulnerable to becoming bad (or by that token, capable of becoming better again). All I ask is that people stop fanboying games and just wait for proper releases, otherwise you get shit like New World, Star Citizen, Cyberpunk, etc. Once the game releases and it's great, go nuts.
TLDR no one wants a bad Bethesda game.

Never been into Fallout or Skyrim games based on the worlds, I'm just not that interested for days on end. I'm so down for what they're pitching with Starfield. I hope they let you flip flop between solo/coop. Such a detailed world, why not enable your buddies to drop in and out at will? Either why I'll give it a solid go on my own or with some mates.

Do you think every single person at bgs Maryland was doing engine overhaul? An artist, a gameplay designer a story writer.
Engine overhaul was maybe done by like 20 core engine programmers aswell as some outsource companies like theforge

Bethesda bad games comes from the creation engine, or Gamebryo.
Creation Engine - Wikipedia
The engine had tons of problems, its why most of their games looks like broken.

Gameplay will be shown at E3 next year just like BGS does for all their games.

Idk how an artist or writer would be helpful with overhauling a game engine but ok, I'll ask them next time I see them

It was not. The live part was.

The Outer Worlds/Mass Effect but planet hubs will be bigger. It's not going to be procedural like NMS. It will have hand crafted hubs on different planets but the planets themselves won't be fully explorable, just the hub itself and some of the area around it.

I'm hoping for some gameplay soon, it's the hype surrounding the game that has me so intrigued. I never could get into Fallout or Elder Scrolls. But this one looks more like what I would like.
I'm just now noticing that Microsoft this generation has hardly shown any gameplay of any of their games they're working on. Everything after Grounded this year has zero gameplay shown so far.
Avowed
Starfield
Everwild
Contraband
Fable
Forza motorsport
Perfect dark
Hellblade 2
State of Decay 3
The Outerworld 2
All with no gameplay and all CGI so far.
It's an interesting strategy on Microsofts part. Sony has a different strategy of not announcing anything until gameplay is closer to being shown. I'm hoping at the Game Awards we see a least a few of those or even just 1. Hellblade 2 seems the most likely

Is that confirmed, or are you speculating? Because that sounds kind of underwhelming, tbh.

Man people really give a fuck about fallout 76 being made by bethesda - THATS what you have against them? They’ve made games for decades - one not so good game comes out (I don’t even know if it is I haven’t played it) and suddenly they’re trash. Jesus
Yeah, they just seem to like their old fashion tone pieces. I don't think TGA is sadly the place for having 2/3 clips basically just of gameplay. I do think that you will get 1 though that has a decent mix of gameplay cut with more CG tone piece.
There are a couple of those which I think we will see a shorter marketing cycle between gameplay reveal and release like FM, Redfall and Starfield.

I really wish CGI trailers die out this gen... They do nothing for me. As soon as I see a CGI trailer line we did with Hellblade 2....it died absolutely nothing for me. Redfall something. I want to see what devs are capable of with this new hardware. I would be really disappointed if we get more CGI trailers next week
I don't mind them honestly but yeah, can see why people are burnt out on them. I don't expect more than 2 possibly 3 first party clips from Microsoft (excluding a customary gamepass montage video). I also don't put it past one of those clips being Halo.

If nothing at TGA, then E3 is locked and loaded! Heck showing 4 of those could be earth shattering.

I want gameplay. We all know how in engine or in game compares to actual gameplay. There's a difference

Summer next year is going to blow everyone socks off. Microsoft Sony and possibly Nintendo are bringing their A game. If we see Spiderman 2, Naughty Dogs next game and any of those Microsoft games
no more CGI!! It's a waste of everyone's time

Yeah I know Todd Howard already stated next summer. But for the other games in Microsofts portfolio I'm hoping for something to hold us off until then. Starfields gameplay is a little too secretive at this point. Starfield is my most anticipated game for Xbox I want to see more!! Lol

Artists are usually contractors.
Unless they are very talented, and primary target for the company, most of them are contractors, who are there, until the project is done.
Its why you see alot of open positions, when the company is making new games.
The ones that stays are the programmers. Those are the one who make the games.
So yes, reworking game engine is their job.

They will go the skyrim route.
'Skyrim': 20 minutes of gameplay footage
Bethesda reveals 20 minutes of gameplay from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
www.digitalspy.com
They did trailer, and history for the game. Same thing they did for starfield (only teaser). Skyrim was December 2010, and stated the release date for skyrim in 11/11/11.
They are doing the same thing for starfield.
Ms messed up their schedule little bit.

In outer space, even based on realism, anything can happen, any life form can exist, crazy stuff can exist in outer space. What they mean is this is science fiction that's based on science but it's still science fiction.

"The studio is led by Todd Howard as executive producer and Ashley Cheng as studio director. Bethesda Game Studios operates three satellite studios, one in Montreal and two in Texas, and employs 420 people as of March 2021"
The game is from his branch studio. So f076 is directly from him. But his main studio weren't spear heading the project.
The game would have turned to fallout 4.
That is the difference.
He gave the IP to a branch studio, instead of the main studio. And they fucked it up.
The main studio is the one that is doing starfield, and was the one responsible for elderscroll games (not eso), and fallout series (not vegas).
I am not absolving him from the blame. He deserves the shit for that game. Just don't bring bethesda Maryland studio in to that shitshow of a game.

I dunno, but not responding to Kotaku makes me want to go out and buy every Bethesda product I can.

How come no one is commenting on this? It's a cool looking little snippet and if that's in game, the game will look very good indeed.
This along with Zelda will probably be the two games I am looking forward to most, or maybe in total, for 2022.

“What did you do today?”
