Flight Simulator claimed that crown two years ago.

It does feel like a true next-gen and not simply “Remember how PC can run their games for ages ago? You too can be part of it.”

This is so beautiful and I can’t even imagine what the modding community will do with this game.

Hopefully Xbox users can mod the game or at the least use popular mods.

Mans mascot is a Skeleton dude inside an astronaut suit and I think one of his favourite movies is A Space Odyssey, he loves space stuff so this should be no surprise

Hoo boy, the sky in this shot. :sweat: I am going to spend so many hours getting lost on these planets.

Watched the starfield direct in 4k. Dang not only did they make an immensely deep game, the graphics are good too.

Starfield is clearly on another level, I do remember playing Skyrim in 2011 and realizing that there was nothing else like it out there, all the other open world games felt so small in comparison, I didn’t even finish the main quest until a few months after launch and don’t think I touched anything else for like 6 months, different times though because back then I was in high school and only had a short part time job some days a week, gonna be fun to play Starfield a few hours a day for a long time to come.

I don’t think we will get anything else like it this generation.

Elder scrolls next will hopefully be out 2027 or 2028 so maybe.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned but there seems to be a few hints from various people that they’ve been playing Starfield

(Reddit - Dive into anything)

Suzi said she’s playing an unreleased game that’s fantastic and replied to that tweet with an image of The Adoring Fan both now deleted

Parris had an image of Starfield on his ROG Ally, now deleted

and ACG is a bit more out there but says he really wants to talk about something but instead talks about who his Starfield character is going to be

Previews soon?

Looks great. Imagine seeing the sunset twice on a distant alien planet in a system with binary stars. Or the shadows of the sun on Saturns ring. I will be a bit mad if this is not in Starfield when a game on a single floppy disk did all that 30 years ago.

Shit was insane. Man, 1993 was such a special year with DOOM and Elite II Frontier.

Interesting!

But if you think about it, it kinda has to. The game will be in some player’s hands late August.

Kojima Cinematic Space game after Overdose an DS2.

So beautiful ! You know, the atmosphere of these shots is bringing me back to Mass Effect 1 vibes in the best way possibles, that game had some amazing atmosphere in those planets we could land on, also hope the next Mass Effect copies some of the zero gravity gameplay we saw in Starfield.

You know, I had this same thought as well. This game is bringing back the excitement I had for Mass Effect.

I haven’t been this excited for a game in a long time.

It really does invoke those feelings of awe and wonder I kind of started to think was behind me. It’s a wonderful thing.

Timelines aligned, Starfield has more followers on Steam than Elden Ring and the banned game at the same moment.

80 days before launch:

Starfield: 267k

Elden Ring: 229k

banned game: 199k

Combined with Game Pass PC which we know is growing very fast (+159% YoY as of October 2022 and 40 new countries were added last April), I think Starfield will be the biggest SP launch ever on PC (as long as Bethesda stick the landing).
