Gamers, are you excited for Bethesda’s new game “starfield”?

[ADFSDF1996]

I kind of am excited and I’m feeling similar levels of hype as to when Fallout 4 was announced back in 2015. However I’ve got all kinds of stress going on at the moment which somewhat limits my hype, mostly related to college and work.

Anyways I think the game has potential despite the combat system looking nearly identical to Fallout 4(Not that it’s a bad thing). I still think Starfield will become another popular franchise along with Fallout and Elder scrolls. However my only concern is how much handcrafted content there actually is to explore, hopefully there is enough hand crafted content that isn’t dwarfed by the procedural generation. After all the game is going to have over a thousand explorable planets. Everything else seems pretty good from the character creation, skill system, outpost creation, spaceship customization, weapon customization, visuals, physics and storyline.

Regardless this game will at least keep us entertained while we wait for Elder scrolls 6, Fallout 5 and the new untitled Indiana Jones game.

Yes

No

Kind of

I rarely get hyped over games anymore. I just know how easy it is to picture one thing in your head and get another. Not to mention how misleading bad PR can be to the actual Product.

My hype won't affect the outcome, I'll look it over again in a few years when it's out, most of the bugs are gone and the price has gone down some. There are so many games out there today that I can easily distract myself away should I need it.

But mostly I want to live so I'll likely just hit the off-switch and go outside.

[HighValue]

Yeah, but I will likely wait to get it. I haven't even got the latest console yet because I still have too many games I didn't get around to playing yet on my XB1X.
I still need to play through the latest Tomb Raider trilogy, the campaign of the last 4 COD games, Far Cry 6, Ghost Recon Wildlands, Divinity Original Sin 1 & 2, Metal Gear 5 the Phantom Pain, Disciples Liberation, Pillars of Eternity 1 & 2, Wasteland 2 & 3, Torment Tides of Numinera, a couple Star Wars games, including the new Lego Star Wars the Skywalker Saga, and some others that I can't recall right now.

I could go another couple years without buying games before getting the latest Xbox Series X and games on it.

Plus I do have some games on my Nintendo Switch that I haven't got the chance to play yet, but I do plan to eventually get Starfield and plenty of the other games Xbox is currently making.

All these games trying to rush out their games and capitalize on a game idea they are basically stealing from Chris Roberts. The saddest thing about this, is that no game of this magnitude will ever be a completed well rounded game when it is pushed out that quickly. Star Citizen came first, and that is the game they are stealing from. In the end, all these other games that have stolen the idea, such as this one and Elite Dangerous are going to be left with a dead game when Star Citizen finally releases. And for those who don't want to wait can join in right this second and help test the Alpha Stages of this game and watch it develop.

Games that are rushed like this one will be incomplete, will run out of things to do quickly and will be riddled with bugs.

No thanks, I will stick to Star Citizen, the real open universe game. To hell with all these poser games.

[NamerOfStars]

Not really. Re-releasing endless variations of Skyrim doesn't exactly fill me with confidence about your abilities, and after Fallout 3... You need more than just a neat sandbox; you need GOOD WRITING, and I doubt Zenimax can do that any more.

Fortunately, it doesn't much matter; it'll almost certainly be a Windows 10/11 exclusive, and I won't be able to, anyway.

[EarthRealm]

They seem to Think Skyrim Is there best Game they ever made. It probably made a Ton of money especially Skyrim Online
I used to run with a bunch of other gamers on Skyrim online we knew a perfect spot for Werewolves. We would Transform into werewolves and Keep killing Bears 🐻 and that would make us Level up Fast 💨

[NamerOfStars]

@EarthRealm See, that's the problem- it's all about money. Of course, it's a business, and making money is the primary goal, but there seems to be no passion behind it; no drive to make a GOOD GAME, just a more powerful Skinner Box.

[EarthRealm]

Agreed
If there going to just make Skyrim games I’d like them to Actually make it Better
More Realistic but not to Realistic where the game looks and plays like Fallout
Like Wolverine Xbox 360
Incredible Hulk
The new Spider-Man games that’s what I want it to look like. Not this Crappy Werewolf Character and the vampire on Skyrim online was just The most Retarded thing and the way they Made getting Turned into a werewolf was just dumb
Other Werewolves could Fuck you over and you could get screwed and not even get Turned and they do that a lot.
I never got Fucked over in the process of getting Bitten but a lot of gamers have and it’s a Thing Skyrim creators made pretty easy to do and it being such a Huge download it wasn’t even worth the space it took up on my Hard drive and the crap where you couldn’t Kill the guards and would always Get killed by the guards because they can’t die was ridiculous as well.
And you can’t really run from the guards they made that like impossible as well.

[Lynx122]

Nope ^^ Bethesda can't even get Fallout right and they work with a 50 year old engine and I'm gonna put my faith in them to get a space game right? NOOOOO The NPCs still look like Skyrim or Fallout. And getting bought by Microsoft hasn't increased my optimism at all.

[WindAtMyBack]

No. It looks like a shooter so I have no interest in it.

I'll stick with Elder Scrolls. I'll wait five years after the new one comes out when I can get it for < $20. In the meantime there are plenty of old games I still play. There are enough of those that buying new games seems almost like a waste of money.

[FilmGuy93]

Wait, you were excited for Fallout 4? That game totally departed from the series in nearly every way.

Anyway, to answer your question; I've been refraining from getting a new Xbox, specifically because the games just have not impressed me. Starfield looks like it might be good, but I'm going to wait to see how it plays when it comes out. Bethesda is notorious for releasing games that are just buggy messes.

[DarkWinterNights]

After Cyberpunk and the recent released disasters of AAA titles I won’t buy another game for at least a month after it’s release. The one exception will probably be Sons of the Forest. And that was because it’s a small Indy developer and their first game was more polished in Early Release than most complete games with corporate backers.

[genericname85]

no. they're still using their 20 year old shitty game engine with bugs in it as old as the engine itself. they can hardly make that work in the type of running simulator/click and point advventure type game they usually make. much less a huge space type game... they're biting off way more than they can chew and i'm just wiating to see all the reports of how much this game sucks.

[Juxtapose]

The old people who made the good Fallout games are not around anymore really. Look at Fallout 4 and 76, both of them are fucking disasters.

Then Fallout 3 gets blown out of the water by New Vegas even though New Vegas was being actively sabotaged by Bethesda.

Fuck Bethesda.

[boggboss]

Been burned too many times by Bethesda now to be hyped ill say waiting in anticipation

[Guanfei]

Let's say I'm watching it closely.
But Bethesda is known to make buggy mess, and often empty games.
Fallout 4 for example was big, there were tons of places to visit. But nothing to do there.
I'm afraid that's what they'll do here too, many places and planets to visit, but once you're there, all you can do is walk and hope you'll find a chest with a random loot.

[Oigit]

Not really. Because Bethesda games tend to be a great platform for mods and that's about it. So in general I'm more excited by something like Skyblivion then I am Starfield.

[CloudMassacre]

I’m not excited for videogames anymore. I think I’ve changed and the industry has changed and I just don’t think they’ll make a game that I’ll love like in the past

[ArtemisSilver]

I'm cautiously optimistic, but Bethesda has shown that they are capable of screwing up tremendously like they did with fallout 76 so I will wait for reviews

[worldscolide]

Yes though I wish they would build a different engine to run it on, as the fallout 4 engine is ancient right now.

[zagor]

No, not into futuristic or apocalyptic themes. I prefer games like Skyrim and The Witcher 3. Immersion games with a medieval/magical feel.

[PatriceONeal]

I dont get excited for releases anymore. Especially the ones who want pre-orders. They always let you down.

[monkeynutts]

Im a PlayStation man. I'm anticipating the open world star wars game that is in the making.

[Therisinghero12]

Looks good, but ill have to know more and see some real gameplay before i consider getting it

[ElvenMr]

A little bit. Ship customization looks interesting, but we barely saw what the gameplay is like.

[IsoUser]

To be perfectly honest I am more excited about new Sniper 3D AND WAR ROBOTS
