Starfield |OT| You're Finally Awake... In Space!

Definitely, they are all on it. It sounds like the game is done and they are just polishing it up all the way. Hopefully that’s a sign of the game tracking well for H1 2023, would have been really great if Todd had said so, but I’m sure they’re extra careful with saying things about a date and everything surrounding it. Seven months from now (tops) isn’t too bad, but a full year would be fucked up. But we will have to see what happens.

I am hopeful that Starfield grabs me more than Fallout. Although deep inside I wish ES6 was launching next year.

Wonder if we get a date/trailer at the Keighlys next week?

I think we will get a constellation vid soon.

I don’t think so. People want an extended gameplay segment and I don’t think tga is the place for that. Nor do I think they will give us a release date till they are 3 or so months from release as has become standard this past year.

I don’t think the game is set for a march or april launch so I think we won’t see a release date at tga.

Yep, agreed.

Some people are definitely thinking in extremes. Like on the Starfield Reddit I’ve seen a few going with…if there’s no release date announcement in January at the latest, it’s gonna get pushed into holiday. I don’t see the logic of this though, like at all.

Todd basically confirmed it was delayed for Polish. I guess it comes down to how much does it need.

Yep, true. A lot of games are coming out, a lot. As much as I don’t want this to happen I can see there being a scenario where they decide to keep it for holiday and extra polish it, since the first half is already so crowded. Fact for me is I’d drop all those games instantly if I have Starfield in my hands.

Listening to the whole interview, Todd is really like my twin brother from another mother. How he thinks ideology about gaming in general actually makes me even more hyped for Starfield and ES VI, and even FO 5 too.

A new Constellation vid is up -

Totally randomized settlements sounds pretty rad.

I won’t spoil what was said specifically about it, but I like how they are going to be handling the Faction quests in this game.

Key part stood out to me

Are you approaching quest design any differently in Starfield than in past BGS games you’ve worked on?

I think for Starfield a lot of quest design was going back to our old-school RPG roots: lots of dialogue choices, referencing the player’s skills and background, a variety of combat and non-combat activities, and highlighting our brand-new setting in a way that signals where to go for what kind of stories you want to experience. We really tried to draw on all of our previous titles to build quests we were excited about.

Far harbour was an improvement on the base game of fallout 4 and the best part imo, glad to see his work will be transferred to starfield.

Do we know like the playable area of each planets and moon? so far i still have not seen a definitive answer to the actual playable area of each planets/moons.

Like how big are we actually talking here?

This sounds really good

Todd said we can land anywhere on the planet, which implies pretty big.
