I’m not really sold on the gameplay but the premise and amount of customizations really reels me in.

 

[aliadiere25]

Surely you can loot the dead bodies?

 

[Anchovie123]

Looks like No Mans Sky but with a higher budget.

 

[Raven117]

Looks good.

And it feels a lot like no man’s sky.

There has to be more than just finding random crap. There needs to be good story lines to pull you through the game. If not… I mean damn… it really is a no man’s sky.

 

[kraspkibble]

get this right into my veins pls.

 

[Jennings]

Wow this game is huge. Over a 1000 planets to explore

Daggerfall in space

 

[Hawking Radiation]

What is that weird fucking tint.

But ship building and customisation and over 1000 planets. Hot damn count me in.

 

[Kev Kev]

dude, i cant get over this. customizable ships? fully explorable planets!?

what!? who expected full sized planets? not me. wow, cant wait.

 

[xHunter]

Yeah hype definetly lowered after seeing the gameplay. They need to drop their shitty engine and switch to UE5 for their next titles.

 

[itsjustJEFF]

We were at this point of such promises before.

Bro... it just works. I'll need to see this in practice, cause honestly... that seems like a stretch.

Starfield is what I thought it would be, Fall Out in space. The best things about those games is the exploration, the worse part... the gameplay/combat, sucks that the combat is such a big part of it. I'll likely still give it a try on PC, it'll be my first "Fall Out" game in awhile.

 

[Flabagast]

Dialogue scenes look at least a gen behind Cyberpunk

 

[SpiceRacz]

Was that a double barrel space shotgun?!!?!?

 

[Jdroop]

Looks fucking incredible. Can’t wait til build me a bad ass ship and explore.

 

[adamsapple]

That was everything I was expecting and more.

This will take a big chunk of my time when it comes out.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

And.... it's just going to work?

 

[hemo memo]

All the Bethesda jank is here sadly. An outdated engine and it shows as the game looks janky. I don't know why Bethesda insists on this engine like they lost a dare. UE4 would have been a better choice.

 

[Starfield]

whats up guys

 

[DigitalScars]

Not blown away. Don't get me wrong ill play it and I'll get some enjoyment out of it for sure.

I just feel it looks like the same old tired as game engine with slightly better graphics while keeping all of the jank. I have no idea what I was expecting, more I guess.

 

[Luipadre]

OOF drop that fucking engine

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Star citizen stans in shambles.

 

[Dr Kaneda]

Did the 1000 planet thing excite people? I'm struggling to comprehend how that wouldn't be a massive red flag. Open world games with large maps now a days are mostly barren copy and past bore fests, magnifying that to 1000 planets will such amplify the tedium.

 

[Arcadialane]

Not really sold, I was expecting a little more than Fallout 4 in space. Im worried its going to be super grindy and lots of fluff aspects(like building/crafting) and barren as well. 1000 planets to explore, but how many of them will be meaningfull?

 

[Crane]

Is this on xbox one as well? looks cross-gen

360 too

 

[Guilty_AI]

No man's sky? It was Todd's all along

 

[Oddvintagechap]

some handcrafted worlds look bland as af, I cant imagine what procedural filler will look like.

 

[Adam_802]

Looks amazing

 

[Jormatar]

Maximillian Dood said it pretty well: you have to give them credit for the ambition. If you like TES and Fallout, you are gonna love this. If you are after more fast paced action, you are probably not gonna enjoy this like you didn't enjoy their last games either.

Also, Todd just couldn't help him and he just had to have another massive lie in his presentation about how you can travel and land anywhere on the game. That's just not true. You know, I know, Todd knows it, everybody knows it.

 

[Matt_Fox]

This looked great on the pixellated livestream, but I've just rewatched it here in 4K.

Wow. Mind blown.

 

[Meraxes]

1000 planets 995 of them will be empty AI generated resource gathering planets. The other 5 will be 10% hand crafted and the rest AI generated.
Game looks like a slightly better version of No Man’s Sky.

 

[begotten]

That's not nextgen.

 

[Chiggs]

Watching this in 4k is highly recommended. It's night and day, IMO.

 

[Spyxos]

Fix the combat, but everything else looked good.

 

[ClosBSAS]

Lol Ppl not convinced by this...but yet, they love fucking Skyrim...one of the most overrated games ever made. The game will be just fine. It's Bethesda. They may have fucked up with fallout 76, but they haven't really released shit games (only broken) in many years

 

[TheRedRiders]

This game looks gorgeus.

Although I think it would have been cooler if we get to go into our ships, and then manually traverse the environment with it, and of course traverse into space. Instead it switches to an in-game cinematic.

I'm nitpicking though.

 

[Tokio Blues]

Looks empty

[AutumnLeaves]

I guess the "hype" for this was insane or something but yeah, not really blown away by that. Will probably get it on sale on PC.

 

[BlueAlpaca]

I just might buy my first xbox for this game.

 

[nani17]

I guess the "hype" for this was insane or something but yeah, not really blown away by that. Will probably get it on sale on PC.

Might get gamepass on pc to try it out

 

[SamaelSavage]

So a not so colorful No Man's Sky?

Exactly what i thought too. There's almost no color in this, weird choice for a game with thousands of planets to pick the one planet to showcase that is just grey, white and black, right?

 

[cheststrongwell]

I don't care how janky it's going to be. I love Bethesda jank and I cant wait for Space Skyrim/Fallout.

 

[winjer]

They lost me at building outposts. It's that crap from Fallout 4, all over again.
F**** you Todd Howard.

 

[Black_Stride]

Fuck.
So how exactly am I supposed to play anything else next year?

 

[Starfield]

all of my prophecies became true

whos laughing now

 

[sendit]

I hope the foliage work showcased here are placeholders:

 

[Laptop1991]

Looks great even though the combat hasn't been polished yet, can't wait to play it, def buy.

 

[El Pistolero]

I honesly have tried my best, but I can not get excited for this genre: Endless possibilities, but mediocre gameplay/sensations in hand, unfocused narrative and modest graphics/animations...
Amateurs of exploration/customization are probably overjoyed right now. To each their own, I guess...
I still can not believe that I watched more than 70 minutes straight of last year's conference thinking I was "enjoying" the current one...
What am I supposed to do right now? Invest another hour and a half in the "right" showcase? Fuck it, I'll dig up the trailers and read through the comments...
I am livid right now...‍♂

 

[In Cold Blood]

The salt. It's so salty. Soo, so salty here.
There was alot of NFM in this showcase, which seems to be the case more and more, but this is the game I have been waiting for.

 

[Kev Kev]

whats up guys

tell todd we said it looks great!!

 

[Darsxx82]

It looks pretty good if we start from the fact that it is (even too I would say) ambitious.


It is clear that the massive scoop is going to be accompanied by bugs that will require 1000 patches. Just because of how the fps was going...

But at the end of it all it's a Bethesda game, TES in space... and we know that's always a sign of commercial success.
