Ya dense forests, or sweeping lands of grass. I don't want just rocky formations.

These parts look promising in that way to me - but maybe there will be a more forest vibe type thing as well

 

[remember_spinal]

Those two screenshots look very no man’s sky to me, and im not saying that in a condescending way.

Looks like we're getting a lot of variety in the worlds shown so far, as it should be with a game this massive.

Hi-Fi Rush
Ghostwrire Tokyo
Redfall
Starfield
Forza Motorsport

Quality and variety with brand new IP along with next gen only, that's what we purchased new hardware for.

This is exactly what the hell I purchase a new console for. Xbox is not lacking for diversity at all. There's a little something of everything especially when you factor in 3rd party Game Pass day ones like a Plague Tale: Requiem last year along with the other first party stuff.

 

[TrebleShot]

I think this will eventually come out March 2024

And High on Life is a great addition.

They don’t have the excuse anymore that they have to optimize for PlayStation

They don’t have the experience to optimize for PlayStation so…

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

Not too bad. I assumed June 2023 would be too soon, so I predicted late Fall or Winter 2023 would be more feasible if it was to come out this year.

 

[Riky]

I’m surprised they just dropped their numberology thing all together. 11.11.11 for Skyrim. 22.11.22 for Starfield, at first. Then 9.6.23?
Or am I missing something clever here? 9 divided by 3 is 3, 3 times 2 is 6, 6 divided by 3 is 2, 2 beside 3 is 23 gah!!1

September 6th 1522

First circumnavigation of the globe.

 

[megatronium]

This is great! Allows me time to finish Elden Ring.

 

[Barakov]

At least we have a date now.

September 6th is the birthday of Todd Howard’s favorite actor, Idris Elba.

I’ll probably buy it after a few months since my most anticipated feature will be its modded play through.

All that and still third place...

Pics are poor quality, I apologize. Taken with my camera right off my monitor screen. Pics do NOT do the colors or the actual textures any justice but wanted to share for those of you doing a quick drive by.

I play games, not sales.

 

[JayK47]

I will be utterly surprised if it comes out this year. I expect it will get pushed into early next year.

 

[CatLady]

What does a pig put on dry skin?

Oinkment.

I'm sorry but that's pitiful. When is Asscan coming back, at least he's funny.




P.S. Still love ya you furry hooker.

 

[Joshmyersbv]

Looks good, shame I won't get to play it.

 

[Aguero9320]

If just a release date is enough to rattle the trolls you know it’s potentially a monster.

Looking forward to the June show, all will be revealed there. Hoping for a space radio station personally Spent literally hours wandering the wasteland in Fallout 3 just to listen to that.

No one world builds like Todd Howard. No one. No Man’s Sky? Get that shit out of your mouth - sacrilege to even utter the names in the same breath.

I think there’ll be mods on Xbox, right?

 

[fermcr]

Most hyped game of the year.

Yea Fallout and Elders Scrolls are nice IPs...but CDPR (after all patches) delivered a better experience with Cyberpunk, even better than Fallout 4...

My concern about this new IP is that seems like the son of No Mans Sky and Mass Effect ..but could and as the creepy son full of bugs and glitches.

 

[Salz01]

Might need to get this on pc just for the mod support.

There is so much to play and coming soon that it is hard to keep track of everything. Still haven't started Atomic Heart yet.

I keep seeing people say this, but we’ve seen so little I don’t understand it. Is it going to be said about every space game in future with planets?

No Man’s Sky has no story of note for one thing (I think they’ve tried to tack one on since launch perhaps?), and Bethesda are nothing if not story tellers…

This is going to be character and story driven at it’s very core.

I’m not seeing anything so far that improves on either of those games or RPGs in general.

The game is gathering so much hype, I’m not feeling it personally.

 

[DragoonWalker]

There better be tons of story quests everywhere, which is what No Man's Sky is missing and made me drop off fast.

 

[Markio128]

At least it’s a 2023 game, which is great news. And there are plenty of great games to play before September, the main one being FF16. It seems like a good release date to me, as long as there aren’t any other bangers coming out around that time.

 

[The Tourmaline Gorilla]

It's coming out this year. My adopted father is second cousin to Bill Gates and used to babysit Phil Spencer when he was a young'in.

 

[Hero of Spielberg]

Yeah, that's what made me bounce off No Man's Sky, you can do all this cool stuff but for no reason ... makes the whole game feel empty. BoTW too.

I'm fairly confident Bethesda will deliver in the story quest department tho.

 

[YeulEmeralda]

Don't trust Bethesda to write a story and characters worth a damn but we'll see.

69 23. You wrote date wrong way.

 

[John Marston]

I want to immediately book 3 days vacation to get a good 5 day binge but we are still 6 months away.
Just being cautious.

 

[adamsapple]

I mean, who intends to play a Bethesda open world game for character development. That's never been the focal point, or strong suite, in their WRPGs and not what attracts people towards them *shrug*.

I never even finished the main story line Skyrim and I’ve put more than 100 hours in that game

Its really good.

first world problem, too many new games to play :'(

Rgt and dreamcast guy are trash tier youtube tbf

I don’t care who you are if you put your face

Whether you hate it or not, it works and they're getting the exact reaction they want from you. Free advertisement. Working as intended.

Personally when I see it I avoid their videos like a plague, but I guess it works for some people.

You aren’t missing much. The RGT guy was endearing when his channel was smaller. Over the past year he’s become insufferable. There are tons of better options out there for general gaming news.

 

[Balducci30]

Man No Man’s Sky with an actual in depth storyline would be so much better. It’s really the reason it just doesn’t work for me. I know they added shit but it’s still too barebones and the emphasis on just mining shit and building shit as the main things - I dunno.

 

[vj27]

Same. I will buy on Xbox and on steam, and play via gamepass. Skyrim is still one of my favourite games ever.

Facts this will be my first steam game. So far I’ve just played everything that I already had on my series x from gamepass. I want them mods lol.

An yes I will be using a controller like the console peasant I’ve always been.

Edit: Going to do my first run through on gamepass on my series x first ofc.

Botw I didn’t feel this way at all, No man’s sky felt completely pointless to me though. It was like why am I doing this. Maybe it’s the survival aspect? I dunno but BOTW felt like there was just more of a genuine sandbox fun factor
