Please be good (and 60FPS)

 

[TintoConCasera]

All that offscreen shit looks really neat. Can't wait, my hopes being:

• Improved gameplay and combat compared to the first showing.
• Actual role-playing mechanics and depth instead of whatever Skyrim and Fallout 4 were.

And that's it. I trust in Todd's plan, the game could come out in 2024 and I couldn't care less as long as they deliver.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Someone just lost a bet.

I did! I'm ready to take my L. there should be a vote for the Avatar and I'll change mine to it now until launch day.

 

[Antwix]

We are 6 months away from release. They couldn't whip up a 2 minute gameplay segment?

What's the difference if you see it now or in June? Ain't like you're gonna play it any sooner.

 

[akaFullmetal]

Now we just need to work on the avatar bet if starfield got delayed.

 

[adamsapple]

Please be good (and 60FPS)

It will be, that's the Todd Howard guarantee.

 

[quest]

Wow when you're starved for this long you tend to act a little crazy.

No people get tired of every Microsoft thread turning into console wars or drive by's derailing the thread. They accounce a showcase and release date and its turning into waring.

 

[skit_data]

Well, at least we finally got a release date. I'm personally getting a bit excited for Starfield despite barely paying any attention to all hype surrounding it, mostly because I tend to go back and forth between being into hard sci-fi concepts, getting tired of it and get more into dark fantasy for a while, getting tired of it only to go back to sci fi, rinse and repeat. Right now I'm in the sci-fi phase again so Starfield sounds appealing, lets hope it sticks the landing date. Might even have to pick up a Series X if Starfield really is all that has been promised.

 

[GymWolf]

Good, take your time and do your betatesting, with M money you have no excuse for a buggy game anymore.

 

[YukiOnna]

That's a good date. The rumored release date just after FFXVI was annoying me.

 

[KWAB]

What a relief for Yoshi-P and Square Enix. Todd showed some mercy and decided to wait a little before releasing the RPG of the decade.

 

[adamsapple]

Ah right so they've accomplished nothing since…..great.

Wow when you're starved for this long you tend to act a little crazy.

smh, every single thread posts like this get a pass.

 

[Humdinger]

Fine with me.

 

[Stuart360]

Me reading the thread title, then reading thread replies...

 

[Lyrical]

No people get tired of every Microsoft thread turning into console wars or drive by's derailing the thread. They accounce a showcase and release date and its turning into waring.

I made one simple point and even stated I'll be playing the game. Then I had around 4 people jump down my throat.

[DenchDeckard]

I've had a warning in this thread for responding to a blatant troll....It hurts, man.

 

[Raven117]

This.. Always this.

 

[Gaiff]

I made one simple point and even stated I'll be playing the game. Then I had around 4 people jump down my throat.

And now he's playing victim. Quit lying. You acted like a concern troll at first. Then took it a step further by implying they didn't progress in a year (when they have a release date) and bitched about no gameplay footage when there is, on top of a showcase in June. Then you exposed yourself by going full warrior and stating "hur hur, when you're starved for this long"

You're transparent and not fooling anyone.

 

[Nothing1234]

Hope the game is great!

Yeah, I'm eager for details on the various gameplay systems. Todd always puts together a good presentation that paints a clear picture on the stuff you can do in the game. Adding more engaging RPG systems seems like a key focus in this game going by what Todd has said in interviews.

 

[graywolf323]

hopefully but I won't really believe it until it's pre-installed on my Series X

 

[LordCBH]

Please fucking be good. Please fucking be good.

Im glad it's not the same month of FF16, cause I'd prioritize 16 myself.

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

Yes Nice!!!

I have been and still am skeptical that this will be the type of BGS game I like, but I can't deny those environments look fantastic.

 

[Morrie’s wig shop]

Shitey fake scottish accent!!

thought it was 9th June you americans are weird.

Lol, we just write it down the way we say it. No one here announces the date as
"the 6th of September in the year of our lord two thousand and twenty three".

 

[drganon]

Please be good and not a complete bug ridden mess like cyberpunk at launch.

 

[AtomicStarving]

Damn Toddy looks fucking old

 

[Neilg]

I bought a samsung qn95a last year, was trying to igure out what streaming stick to buy so I could give this a shot without having to buy an xbox and ended up reading that they natively support xbox game pass, and dualsense controllers. i've already got everything I need to try it, fuck yeah.

 

[Musilla]

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Yes Nice!!!

I'm sorry but I can't help it, it really looks like No Man's Sky.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

It better not be 30 fps on Series X

 

[T4keD0wN]

So, how should i tell my boss that i am going to have to move my vacation a few weeks? /s

 

[Portugeezer]

Not the first half of 2023, but OK, I will look to buy a Series S around then.

 

[FoxMcChief]

September is perfect.

I'm never out of my sci-fi phase! Best genre there is!

Psst go for the PC version instead if you can, that's where all the cool mods will be.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

I'm sorry but I can't help it, it really looks like No Man's Sky.

NMS turned into a really nice game though

Launch was horrible...

Wait I see what you did there now

 

[Roberts]

Watched this on big screen. Goosebumps. I get a feeling that the game won't be a straight-forward space exploration game and will eventually take us weird places transcending time and space. Can't wait.

 

[splattered]

Why are people saying it showed no gameplay? There were several snippets and it looked GOOD imo... the graphics and creature and planet design all looked great! I am more hyped for this than i was after last sneak peek we got... can't wait!

 

[mrmustard]

I'm sorry but I can't help it, it really looks like No Man's Sky.

You can't imagine my surprise.

 

[feynoob]

Does that mean we will get those pointy aliens?

 

[G-Bus]

There's plenty of off-screen game play in the B roll. The 'trailer' is just the release date announcement.

Did y'all just close the window after the release date popped up ?

Yea... Odd replies in here. I'd like to see more but looks like we have to wait.

Visually it looks better than I was expecting

Fuck I might have to get an Xbox now.

 

[FBeeEye]

Man once the Activision deal goes through, 2023 is going to be lit for Xbox and I need to get a prescription for high blood pressure medication. You know, from all the salt that's going to start flowing.

 

[SlimySnake]

Damn Toddy looks fucking old

He looks like shit. Ive seen this at work. It's because of stress and long days.

I sense a hint of frustration in his voice when he said trust us, we want to have people play our game too. I just realized that this is the first game hes shipped since Fallout 4 which was 8 years ago. Dont think he was too involved with Fallout 76.

Games are just getting too big. Bethesda games are already huge. I wouldnt be surprised if there is 200-300 hours of content here.

Devs have to start limiting their ambitions for their games for their own sanity or they will look like aged Presidents.

 

[Henry Panic]

Why the console trolling?

Is it possible to talk about Xbox without bringing up the PS5?

 

[Umbasaborne]

"These are the games launching in the next 12 months "

 

[Balducci30]

We are 6 months away from release. They couldn't whip up a 2 minute gameplay segment?

Mm I dunno about this logic - you can clearly see the gameplay off screen in multiple areas of the game — seemed pretty obvious they could do a 2 minute gameplay segment if they wanted and chose not to

EDIT: on a side note the third person gameplay actually looks way better than I expected - and gameplay in general looks smoother than the reveal

 

[mrmustard]

Is it possible to talk about Xbox without bringing up the PS5?

Good joke. What do you want next? World peace?

 

[Gaiff]

Is it possible to talk about Xbox without bringing up the PS5?

Meant concern trolling.

Here ya go ya filthy animals. Game play.
