I'll take a 30fps epic open-world RPG than a 60 fps cinematic linear game.

 

[alphachino]

$349 1TB Series S is going to be in some crazy holiday bundles. Smart pricing imo. That'll find it's way under a lot of Christmas trees this year.

gonna be a lot of sad kids this Christmas

 

[El Pistolero]

Bad takes everywhere, it's hilarious.

Really? You thought this was amazing?

 

[Wildebeest]

The graphics and gameplay look better, but it just doesn't look smooth. Is it partly because the first person camera bobs and jerks around like a one legged drunk?

 

[TheMan]

Can series S really handle this? May need to splurge on a series x

 

[Mr Moose]

Looks nice enough, the jittery camera and character animations are weird, can't tell if its the stream or bad fps or something else.

 

[rofif]

gunplay at 20fps is fine to you ? honest question

I am sure it's just badly encoded video... but if they cant do stable 30fps vid.... yikes

 

[LostDonkey]

Tbh it looks like Star Citizen but they actually got a story and shit behind it.

 

[gimmmick]

Great showing for Microsoft. Please give Sony a run for its money this generation. Competition only gets us better games.

Starfield looks fucking amazing.

 

[veterangamerUK]

All while investing even more than ever in single player games too, but lets forget about that huh?

Coming in 2026

 

[mhirano]

oh, shit!
Starfield has a blue haired female producer.
Preorder cancelled

 

[Foilz]

Great showcase.

 

[sendit]

I gotta say I am pretty underwhelmed. it's not a bad show like Sonys but its not a great one either. I went in to the conference with a yearning for next gen visuals and gameplay and came out with the same. Only fable and starfield impressed.

Going to skip Starfield's Direct. they are showing and i want to go in fresh. It is going to be the biggest game of all time and probably the only game that will threaten zeldas dominance at the award shows. Hate that Phil is taking credit for it. This is a bethesda game but the man has no shame lol. At least he had the common sense to delay it, zenimax wouldve probably rushed it out.

Overall, i will give this show a solid B-. They brought the games and even though they didnt all look amazing, its the effort that counts and its way better than what Sony and Nintendo have done which is fuck all in nintendo's case and cg cg gaas gaas in Sony's case.

No perfect dark, no doom, no indiana jones or any kind of next gen gameplay really shows that no one seems to be ready this gen. Well, everyone except for Bethesda.

You set yourself up for failure. Parading tech demo’s as an actual bar for real gameplay.

gunplay at 20fps is fine to you ? honest question

Which stream are you watching?

 

[bender]

Those character and facial animations.

 

[Patrick S.]

Can I play a white old male in Starfield?

 

[cormack12]

Barrett is a dick

 

[Oberstein]

20 FPS :- /

 

[Thirty7ven]

I want to play this game.

 

[Snake29]

You can see the two different philosophies going on at play between Microsoft and Sony.

Sony, wanting to keep their cards close to their chest, not showing anything really if their first party games beyond 2023.

And Microsoft, showing everything they have to show (mostly), whether that is next year or even beyond that.

I personally like both approaches, means we get to see games further out and also get to see nice surprises on a regular-ish basis.

The problem with MS approach, is that it just doesn't work for the mainstream.

 

[SecretAgentHam]

If this is the performance to expect on XSX then I'll have to stick with PC. I already know the modding community is going to go bonkers with this one.

 

[NeonGhost]

The worlds most powerful console 30fps

 

[Jinzo Prime]

New Atlantis looks awesome.

 

[SlimySnake]

Statfield does look awesome.
Love the art style

its the lighting that impresses the most. absolutely stunning stuff almost on par with sim games like Flight Sim.

 

[Topher]

Got some Fallout vibes in there too

 

[Bernoulli]

Red dead redemption 3

 

[Mister Wolf]

Looks next gen.

 

[Evil Calvin]

Tbh it looks like Star Citizen but they actually got a story and shit behind it.

Star...Cita..what? ................That old vaporware game? Squadron 42?

 

[Freeman76]

So they hand crafted a few areas on 1000 different planets, with a story that ties it all together. Fuck me i'll be playing this for a year

 

[intbal]

Starfield looks like if Freelancer had continued on for 5 more sequels.

 

[rofif]

I'll take a 30fps epic open-world RPG than a 60 fps cinematic linear game.

yes exactly. 30fps is perfectly fine it's low input lag unlike most 30fps modes this gen.
final fantasy 7 was 15 fps in 1995 and nobody complained.

It's all about scales, next gennes and how much the game pushes tech

 

[Wolfpact1983]

United colonies of America

 

[GHG]

Lmao they put fallout in space.

 

[killatopak]

Officer Howard, another Colony needs our help.

 

[Twinblade]

can you build cities in starfield?

 

[b0uncyfr0]

Fuck im getting hard - Red dead redemption 2 in space!!

 

[adamsapple]

I want them to show this games version of VATS please !

 

[diffusionx]

Can series S really handle this? May need to splurge on a series x

shit I'm wondering if my 3080 will

 

[mortal]

Love the variety of materials on display. The enviroment is star of the game.

 

[Akuji]

350 for a series s? the 500gb edition was 250€ and that with tax included a few times already in germany.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

The environments look absolutely incredible. Hopefully the performance is good too.

 

[funkygunther]

I wonder if theologian, pirate, cowboy etc are going to be similar to classes

 

[Nankatsu]

Those facial animations

 

[Draugoth]

Posted a thread for every game in the showcase.

My fingers hurt. Excuse me.

 

[NEbeast]

Coming 2024 and beyond.

 

[Quantum253]

The stream keeps dropping resolution constantly, I'm waiting for a 4k, or at least stable 1440, download

 

[brian0057]

I know this is definitely a Bethesda game because I already don't give a fuck about any of these characters.

 

[analog_future]

I don't think anything is going to dethrone Zelda this year, but damn, this sure looks like an "in the GOTY conversation" level game.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

How fucking big is this game?

 

[Thirty7ven]

These character models are absolutely awful and completely at odds with the rest of the game in terms of visuals.
