I'm sorry but doesn't everything about this game look kinda... pathetic?
Like... it's horrifically bloated, but also empty. It keeps showing off vistas but they all look ugly and bland. They show off soulless automaton npcs and procedurally generated noise like it's revolutionary. Everyone knows it'll be broken and unplayable too like every other Bethesda game on launch, cause they rely on and steal user fixes to make their games actually work.
Then you have it surrounded by much, much, MUCH better games releasing with more heart and feeling put in to them. It's going to be an utter embarrassment.
It seems like chasing trends and thinking people will accept their buggy trash will finally catch up with Bethesda cause there's just zero buzz around this and everyone I know is eagerly skipping it.

No Man’s Hype
Gameplay footage dropped and everyone stopped caring.
yeah, bro, that’s why there are at least 5 threads about this game being in the catalogue at any given moment
They’re about the game being shit doe.
Just 5? Rookie numbers.
Are there though? Because it seems to me every other thread is about Baldur's Gate 3 and Armored Core 6. Starfield threads are a ghost town in comparison. Nobody cares about this game anymore. It's an exclusive to a console no one has or cares about, will probably run like shit on PC, and looks boring as hell even for someone who loves games like Elite Dangerous and X4.
Everyone was really impressed by the direct, ever biased Sony shills, theres no controversy around the game which is why it isn't talked about. People talked about AMD exclusivity for a entire week because it was drama. Before the direct they're was more talk because it was all speculation. Now were just waiting for the game
I just know what I'll be doing the entire time I play it.
Land on a planet. Walk around and stumble one some broken buildings with a audio log making it seem like a deep place where something crazy happened. Go to some landmarks for a side quest or quest.
Pretty much all I'm excited for are seeing the vistas.
>audio log
You're getting written texts at best anon
is starfield left wing (troony) or right wing (based)? this is important for how I will post about this game.
50% of the game is fascist and 50% of the game is trooned
It lets you choose your pronouns, what do you think?
Looks good to me. I bet you're the kind of person that thinks 2001: A Space odyssey is "boring"
You’re not going to pretend that movie is “exciting” are you?
the only bad part of it is the spacewalk scenes with kubrick breathing into a microphone for 10 minutes
>Space odyssey is "boring"
It is fricking boring, and this comes from someone (me) who absolutely loves the movie.
space engine looks better than this shit tbh
There's also nothing to do on space engine.
you go around and look at cool stuff. it's the same thing you'll do in starfield except with all the boring space bandit bases cut out
Space Engine is a planetarium, you just fly around, look at proc gen planets with no biomes, not even rocks, very low res textures. You just look at things. Yeah you can "land" on a planet with no loading screen and find a good spot to take a screenshot, because there's practically nothing to show or do anyway.
I remember you could spawn a spaceship and pretend you were flying it around, but it's similar to the "flight simulator" mode on google earth.
The difference being that Space Engine displays an entire universe in the background, allowing you to play with perspectives and make nice screenshots, while Tardfield will likely use a dynamic sky to simulate outer space.
>it's the same thing you'll do in starfield except with all the boring space bandit bases cut out
Yeah it's clearly "the same as Starfield without everything in Starfield apart from looking at planets".
not that anon, check Evochron Legacy/Mercenary, game made by one guy, you can even land on the planets.
>you can even land on the planets
You call that a planet you fricking grug?
Looks good to me
Ugh, these fricking graphics
>to travel between solar systems you must select which system you want to go
>which means you can't explore the void between systems
>no planet to space travel
>which means you can't bombard settlements, attack other flying ships or the explore the planet with your ship
This is a poor man's mass effect.
You can load into space and shoot some ships in space before loading into your next planet though.
Elite Dangerous you hyperspace between star systems too, and thats a full on space sim. Its light years between stars, and there's nothing there. Would kind of dull if you had to fly light years in real time at regular speeds.
The problem is not the hyperdrive, freelancer had gates that allowed you to reach new systems at fast speed, however, pirates would disable the gates while you are using it, I just want to jump out in the middle of the road the check if there something in there.
well since the dev hardcoded for nothing to be there i guess they judged worthless to make you travel in these area ?
Pirates couldn't hack the gates between systems, only the interplanetary ones
You can attack other flying ships? Also you’re never reaching another star system without warp drive
To be fair, why would you want to explore the void between systems? It's a void, by definition there is nothing there.
Bit moronic that landing on a planet is done through a loading screen and since there is no vehicles or mounts, plants will mostly be a few small areas you can land at and explore rather than a full planet.
You can go anywhere on any planet
Except not really because you can only land at specific points and there is no way to travel across the planet with ease. You got to walk.
Calling it now, Todd is lying again. He's going to claim you can explore the entire planet but it's going to be a few zones with some content near the landing zone, then just endless randomly generated emptiness for the rest of it.
>Except not really because you can only land at specific points
?t=343
incel narrators and interviewees
show of some kind of freak mongol-Hispanic hybrid for character creation
minorities everywhere
looks like PS2 environments
>Except not really because you can only land at specific points
This is false. The Direct shows that you can select any point on the surface to land.
You can go anywhere in a 10k meter block before having to load into space and select a new 10k generated block.
I’m really doubting this. You’re going to hit water or an impossible cliff or a super deep gorge you can’t cross. Do you expect to be able to rotate a planet before you land and pick any spot on it? I really think you’re going to be disappointed.
>Do you expect to be able to rotate a planet before you land and pick any spot on it?
Have you even watched any gameplay video or are you passing time by making shit up?
>He believes Todds lies
Yeah, and I bet you actually can climb that mountain.
damn I'd like to age as well as he did
He shitposted a lot in his youth.
>abonding
>abdonding
Is he dyslexic?
He was right though.
You could climb that mountain
I keep trying to watch gameplay vids but they are so goddamn boring I never get very far.
if you find the game so boring why come here and post about it?
>Do you expect to do the thing they literally showed in the deep dive? I really think you’re going to be disappointed.
>200 unique endings guyz
>Guys they showed off guns in Starfield... No... We fricking lost, there won't be any guns in Starfield now... Frick...
If Todd is so trust worthy, why don't you record a video of you climbing that mountain?
I'll wait.
Not that mountain. The other one that Todd said I could climb.
The one he pointed at when he said it? As in that specific mountain in the video?
Was actually this mountain. I guess abusing shitty horse physics counts as climbing it until you hit an invisible wall anyway.
moron. This is the mountain he is referring to. The Throat of the World.
That is the one he was talking about
The one you have to climb for the Golden Claw quest?
>it just works
Gullible moron.
Yes, settlement building did in fact just work.
It became so popular some guy made a full game sized expansions for it. Great stuff
>YOU CAN'T ROTATE A PLANET OR CHOSE A LANDING SPOT
>IF THAT WERE TRUE THEY'D SHOW IT
>WHAT DO YOU MEAN, I WATCHED THE VIDEO BUT I CAN'T FIND IT
Literally the first five minutes of the video.

Hold on todd, you said I could land anywhere, anywhere also includes the top of a building and the fricking ocean.
What the frick did you expect.
>click anywhere on the planet
>do you want to land here ? Yes/No
>mini game for landing
>ops, planet police wants to scan your ship before you land ? Comply/refuse
>ops, the local government did not like the your land in their national park ? Your ship is now under their possession of the local government, Do you Attack/ Comply(200k credits) ?
>ops, don't have enough funds, if you cannot generate 200k credits until X date, the ship will auctioned
>good luck pilot
>mini game for landing
How about you just pilot your ship down to the planet instead of being presented with a loading screen? That too much to ask for from Bethesda? Because they did it in No Mans Sky.
And because they did that in No Man's Sky, planets weren't allowed to have anything interesting on them.
This. SF is hand-crafted
Where's the interesting stuff
You mean combat?
+base building, scanning, the dungeons with puzzles, various sidequests...
>inb4 "that all sounds shit"
Then you don't like Bethesda gayms. Find something else to play
Not to defend NMS, but, modern NMS had all the mentioned features.
I had to double check. But I honestly thought this was a PS2 era Metal Gear game at first glance.
I genuinely thought it was a Wii game for a sec.
PS2 didn't have the capabilities of pulling off that muzzle flash reflection on the character's suit. lmfao brainlet, how embarassing
Good lord that lighting is terrible - you can see the reflection of the muzzle flash brightly on the metal textures on the ceiling pipe and the metal shelving, but nowhere else
What, you want gay tracing 50% less FPS for muzzle flash reflections you won't even notice during combat?
ITS NOT EVEN IN SYNC
It looks fricking delayed and it is, you can find frames in the webm where there's 'reflection' and no flash, and vice versa.
They are both using the same method of generating planets though. It's just procedural generation (which results in boring as frick landscapes) with a few prefabricated pieces placed around.
Outside of a few designed set pieces, this is all Starfield will be. And lets face it. Bethesda are not known for designing interesting dungeons. They're usually a winding corridor with a shortcut back to the entrance once you get the treasure chest at the end.
It's a different kind of procgen than you're thinking
>And because they did that in No Man's Sky, planets weren't allowed to have anything interesting on them.
Completely unrelated, you're taking someone's frick up as a rule of thumb. NMS at least tried to do something new and different, Starfield is a game I feel I already played before.
Mass Effect has more advanced tech than Starfield for fricks sake.
People here actually think Starfield will have amazingly detailed planets full of shit to see and explore. Reality is it will work the same way as Mass Effect. You will land and have a small area to explore. Outside of this area will either be in accessible, or just randomly generated terrain with nothing in it.
>randomly generated terrain with nothing in it.
You mean like real planets?
Real life isn't a game homie. I play a game to have fun. You know what's not fun? Empty expanses of terrain.
Go where there is content then.
The only content is around the designated landing spots every planet has.
POI are confirmed procgen so we don't know that.
The entire planet is a designated landing spot
>Outside of this area will either be in accessible
It's already confirmed, you can't stray too far from your ship. Which gives a rough idea of how limited everything is.
No it hasn't been confirmed at all. Give a source, I know you can't.
It's been hinted at so fricking strong in the direct, and if you could just walk circle a planet on foot going in a straight line, Todd would boast about it.
He didn't. Who's laughing now?
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Give a real source.
When it comes to Todd, claims of features are an absence of features.
Stop believing his lies, we've been here many times before and we know how this ends.
>fanfiction
lulz
>we've been here many times before and we know how this ends.
...a well rated vidya game that lasts years?
A buggy mess full of broken promises that needed a good 5+ years of dedicated modders to fix it. But even then they couldn't fix the dated engine or gameplay.
>buggy mess
We've been through this before. These games are historically well liked.
Just learned there are no guns, no ships, and no space in Starfield.
It's fricking over bros...
You're the one falling for memes, name a single lie said by Todd, there isn't one. You COULD climb the mountain
>if you could Todd would boast about it.
Nailed it.
He's not boasting about it cause there's no reason to do it. You use your ship to get around long distances, but he literally HAS described the landscape of planets as being made of tiles that "wrap around" the planet. There's only evidence for it, not against.
GUYS TODD DIDN'T MENTION THE W KEY IN STARFIELD
THAT MEANS YOU CANT WALK FORWARD WTF????????
>it's already confirmed
>It's been hinted at
>proof is no one bragged about
why are starfield detractors so braindead
People aren't that unreasonable, and if it has mod capacities comparable to TES, that shall be a non-issue, and this game shall last for decades.
I dunno if you played ME1 but I did and the Mako exploration was dreadful and by some distance the worst part of the game, it's a bit weird and desperate to use it as some sort of win against Starfield
Nah the mako was sick. I was so disappointed when me2 removed it.
it was fricking awful, but yes ME2 was an even worse game
They just needed to expand on it more, not get rid of it.
yeah but they didn't so who cares, Mako sucks and was a failure
>Mako sucks
Wrong
I'm talking about tech, Mass Effect is more technologically advanced than Starfield when it comes to exploration and freedom.
Starfield is so on rails it could be part of the R-Type series.
>Starfield is so on rails
This is literal nonsense.
>Mass Effect is more technologically advanced than Starfield when it comes to exploration and freedom.
How?
Mass Effect makes you visit predefined locations, with quite small levels apart maybe from ME3. You're not flying your ship either, and the Mako is trash.
>only a small amount of explorable "planets"
>each has either a straight line's worth of land to explore or a hilly area to get stuck in
>maybe one thing to find on each
>mako controls were considered garbage at release
>they also took all of this away for subsequent releases
you literally don't know what you're talking about. chances are you haven't even played mass effect
That is literally all Starfield will be, minus a vehicle with shitty controls to drive around.
>Mass Effect is more advanced than Starfield
>*fast forward a post later*
>Ok so Starfield will be like Mass Effect
And you start crying when people call you snoys.
>b-but my snoyslave opinion means it will be the same!
you've never played the first mass effect
Why are you even mentioning Sony here? Are you unable to argue any point without screaming SNOY? Literally you are the only one trying to bring sony up and start shit. Everyone else is talking about the game and how it's obviously going to be bad.
Not him but you're falling into the trap of assuming your opinion is the consensus, "everybody else" does not agree that Starfield is obviously going to be bad.
because only snoy brandslaves are melting down and naysaying about starfield like you are
pc fats and xboinks are excited as frick for the next modder's paradise
No one is excited for this corpoflopslop though. Most normies I've spoken to don't even know it's being released soon, no one bothered watching it's trailer or deep dive and anytime Ganker tries to talk about it, either the thread dies within 10 posts, or people just shit talk it like they are now.
Can't believe Ganker is so fricking young now they actually fall for Todds lies.
>muh fake anecdotes!
>no one is excited!
>AIEEE STOP CALLING ME A SNOYYYY
no one cares about snoyslaves
>though
>No one is excited for this corpoflopslop though
I am excited for it. I'm 32 years old and been here since 2005. I think the problem is that people are expecting WAY too much. It's just gonna be Skyrim + Fallout, but with a space theme, which I am completely fine with.
Because it's the only option that makes sense. I do not understand why someone would spend so much time screaming at this one video game for any other reason than console war homosexualry.
Anon, he's memeing.
>Why are you even mentioning Sony here?
snoys are behind most of the Starfield shitposting, they're butthurt because they can't play it. They're even trying to push Baldur's Gate 3 as "their" rival because the console version is currently only coming out on PS5. Nobody else cares enough to make 50 threads a day complaining about Starfield. They'll either play it or ignore it.
Realistically, most everyone will play Starfield on game pass for $1. Who the frick is going to pay full price for a janky ass Bethesda game after Fallout 76?
Skyrim sold 30 million more copies after 2016, FO76 was released in 2018 so it's safe to assume people will erase it from their memory, especially as most people were already filtered by a multiplayer fallout before even trying it.
Anyone smart enough to understand the difference between a singleplayer and multiplayer game.
>Who the frick is going to pay full price
>already one of the highest selling games on steam despite not even being out
>after Fallout 76
>implying actual bethesda enjoyers played fallout 76
yes, we know you're an ignorant snoyslave by now
FO76 is as much of a Bethesda game as NV.
it remains to be seen, I think some planets will have quite a bit of stuff of them and others will be mostly barren
Are you shitting me? ME1's exploration was so damn bad they stripped it out in ME2 and it drastically improved the game. Every single Bethesda game has better free roam exploration than ME1. Literally every single one, even fricking Terminator. Bethesda's development pipeline has been purpose-built specifically for that sort of game. That's why they're miles ahead of everyone else in exploration gameplay but playing catchup on everything else.
>they stripped it out in ME2 and it drastically improved the game
No it didn't. ME1 > >> > > ME2
>you're taking someone's frick up as a rule of thumb
There's not a single space game where flying from space to planet is combined with the level of on-planet detail that Starfield has. It's everyone's frickup cause it's two conflicting design goals. Look at how Star Citizen's development has ground to a halt because they keep trying to combine the two.
>the level of on-planet detail that Starfield has
Morrowind has a spaceship mod, so technically Morrowind is superior.
Checkmate atheist.
do shart shitizen fans really?
>do shart shitizen fans really?
imagine thinking shitizen really has any of that; it has "you land on a planet, you clip through the planet and die"
"you land on a planet, bandits from someone else's quest spawn above you and gun you down"
"you land on a planet, station security bugs out and decides you're an enemy even though you're doing a police quest; turrets shoot you to death"
"you land on a planet, the bunker is pirate owned, the turrets shoot you through the mountains and you die"
"you land on a planet, you clip a rock, your ship explodes"
also each time you die and respawn it's:
"you die and respawn, you get on an elevator; the elevator bugs out and you die."
I'm glad you're not designing the game...
>Why don't we have boring mechanics?
Sounds like autism.
my kind of game
Oh a Scam Shartizen enthusiast.
How's development going?
I just want starsector 3D
>planet police wants to scan your ship before you land ? Comply/refuse
Already a thing by the way
Are waterworlds or oceans even confirmed for the game?
Neon is literally a former fishing city on a water world.
Gonna get me some of that Volturnian lobster
Go watch the promotional videos for No Man's Sky and Cyberpunk or even Fallout 76. How did those end up again? Clown
What does any of that have to do with blattant lies?
>How did those end up again?
I don't know you tell me, looks pretty active for a 3 year old hard flop.
God, this is going to be pitiful. How much meat can modders add to this pitiful frame
Its empty, perfect place to hide from prying eyes, a pirate group could have a station in there, or a secret military installation, a laboratory, rogue planets, a fleet preparing to attack a system, derelict satellites/stations, spy satellites, ancient ships.
And it will just be empty space that is just procedurally generated.
Just a reminder, in No Mans sky you can land anywhere on any planet and walk around them all. But it takes like 25-30 hours to walk around an average sized planet.
> games releasing with more heart and feeling put in to them
This is the real clincher. Starscrub is soulless.
“You start your character journey like you’re looking through employee records.” Well, I’m fricking sold. My god, what a thing to say.
What is wrong with it? Most Bethesda start with the MC answering a questionnaire.
> Most Bethesda start with the MC answering a questionnaire
No they don’t. Morrowind and fallout 3, as far as I remember, thats it.
Fallout 4 and Fallout NV also started this way.
Hmm NV i suppose (if you want to count a non beth game) but not fo4. Vaulttech Todd just asks your name and you fill out your special. No questionnaire.
New Vegas is not a bethesda game zoomer moron. Stop trying to appropriate good games.
It's kind of funny how 1,2, NV weren't made by Bethesda and considered the best games in the series when Bethesda, Fallout right holders just made 3,4, and Fallout Shelter lmao
Funny isn't the word, but yes.
Bethesda literally own New Vegas good sir
You can fly around in the system space, shoot shit, there's space stations and what not you can dock at etc. The ship even has energy distribution and one interesting thing I noticed is that one of the options seems to be gravity.
Grav drive I believe, the warp drive
GRV is your FTL engine. Giving it more power means less time to go into FTL flight to escape from an enemy. So depending on the situation, you may give more power to your engines to outrun someone, or more power to your weapons to hit harder.
it's ripped directly from Elite Dangerous, and probably others.
I agree OP TotK is very flopped + shitted
The worst thing is it's just another TES/Fallout game but with a space theme. There's no evolution, no progress, just the same game sold over and over, with the same flaws.
It's boring.
Theres no space combat in any of those games, theres only one square area with boundaries in those games
>Theres no space combat in any of those games
I hope you don't expect space combat to be a huge part of the game, let alone the best part. They suck at designing combat to begin with and there are hundreds of combat mods. Do you expect them to get this right?
And it's not like space combat is anything new.
There's more RPG mechanics, non shit looking weapons, settlement looks improved, Emil not the main storyquest writer, and no MC VA to what Fallout 4 had. I say that's an improvement.
>Another snoy thread
The gamebryo engine is REALLY showing its age, but I look forward to Starfield none the less. Bethesda has a fine track record for me.
It looks like someone took Fallout 4s graphics and tried to make No Mans Sky with them, but they half assed it.
Kind of embarrassing for a company as big as Bethesda.
>the ratio
OH NO NO NO NO
TODD BROS......
>SPD gaming
snoys are such sore losers
Yeah that is how it feels to me as well. I feel that there is no hype to it as well. Non of my friends are excited for it, and for them Skyrim was their childhood.
Everyone just wanted Elder Scrolls 6 instead and is now awkwardly waiting for this to come and go.
Everything is cut to bits and short cinematic snippets. They're clearly scared to show actual gameplay (eg. docking at a hub, getting a mission, doing it, returning from it uncut) probably because it's just Skyrim/Fallout in spess in the most literal way possible.
literally every single one of these threads is just snoys crying because they can't play it, biggest case of sour grapes on Ganker for a very long time
xbro here. have absolute no interest in betheshit and won't even download this dreck. enjoy your troony ""games"", snoys.
i got my game pass key i bought for 7 dollars which will last 2 months
i have like 0 hype for this, im gonna scalp multiple constellation editions and resell them on ebay though and hopefully profit off that
You really going to risk it? I feel like there is 0 hype for this game. If anything those editions will go on a discount .
no risk, i can just return it within 7 days, if not longer. also they arrive free shipping because how much they cost, and can return free
the problem is ebay's cut, and sales tax, you think people making bank from reselling 320 dollar item for 500, but literally only will get 70 dollars max from a sale if you're lucky. but its literally free money you are passing up on
oh also forgot shipping costs too, which will be a lot
Day one buy for me.
Fricking hell enjoy your bugs. I'll probably get it after the first unofficial patch comes it. Like a few months at least.
bethesda makes games for kids
they didnt always
but it's their bread and butter since the 360
>No mention of the game going gold
>No marketing
it's going be delayed, isn't it?
no, not really
Why do sonypals react so poorly when a game doesn't release on playstation?
>Everyone who doesn't like Starfield is a FRICKING SNOYSNOYNSOYSNOY
Would you people shut the frick up already? Some of us are old enough to remember all of Todds lies and the release state of Bethesda games.
Okay... but you ARE a sonybro, yes?
No. I own an Xbox Series X and a Nintendo Switch (and a PC obviously). I have not owned a Sony console since the PS3 which I barely played because I got most games on the Xbox 360.
I'm just not an absolute monging moron like you who will believe every little lie and piece of hype presented.
this is what I mean, sonyfriends get so salty about it, they really want the game to fail out of spite, it's not healthy bros
No, what is not healthy is your permanent basedface that developed after you spent hours a day screaming snoy at everyone.
>I'm not a snoy I just... feel compelled to defend their honor on Ganker!
sure lol
>Criticizing Starfield means your defending sonys honor
What the frick are you talking about? Do you even listen to yourself?
You weren't criticizng Starfield, you were malding because people were making fun of snoys
Maybe it's because I'm sick and fricking tired of homosexuals like you coming into every single thread on Ganker screaming snoy at random people for no apparent reason. You're like some weird ass fricking cult. No one even mentioned sony until you came along.
I think it's more likely you're sick and tired of it because you're a snoy and people are wise to your tricks
Considering all the false flagging and the made up crap we see on a daily basis, it's hard to argue you're simply criticizing the game. We're on Ganker, you're not fooling anyone, you're not being subversive.
Peter Molyneux's games a few years back were Xbox exclusives, I guess they were all absolutely perfect?
I love how much asshurt this game already generates. It's like the sweet cherry on top of already enjoying it.
Where are all the cool pre-release events and marketing? That and the inherent soullessness of space are really bringing down the hype
My guess is after Fallout 76, Halo Infinite and Redfall, Microsoft is trying to play it safe by only doing a big marketing push in the last two weeks leading to release
For what it's worth, those are arguably the most important two weeks
>It's mid af
zoomers should be forbidden from accessing the internet until they're 25
what are these big games releasing close to starfield, i forget
(me)
okay bad thread i know but can someone take a break from roleplaying picrel and answer my question please
None of them see Starfield as a threat. Even the Armored Core 6 trailer got more views in a week than Starfield did in a fricking month. Baldurs Gate 3 has sold over 10 million copies in less than a week and has instantly become one of the highest concurrent player count games on Steam while getting like a 96 on metacritic.
I mean, why wouldn't they just release their games now? Starfield obviously isn't doing shit to the sales/popularity of these games.
okay thank you i knew about bg3 but that's like a month apart i don't really get the relevance, will check out armored core 6. feels good to have that sorted

As opposed to waiting for two hours straight like Scam Citizen?

rather take the load screen if it means there's a higher chance that the game will be stable. And if bethestard devs doesn't do it, some autist is going to fix it.

Could've at least had speeder bikes. Just reuse the horse code. Brotherhood vertibirds could have been re-modelled as dropships too.
Planets are prof generated with seeded content. Vitibirds are highly scripted. Land isn’t flat enough for bikes. You get a jet pack and I think there’s a hover bike
It looks like a Bethesda game but with spaceships and different planets to explore, I'm curious how it will turn out with different planets rather than one big sandbox like their other games but otherwise yeah. If you don't like Bethesda games don't play it because I doubt it will please you.
is this the snoy cope thread?
Bethesda hasn't made a single good game in twenty years, this one won't be different but reddit is creaming itself over this one because graphics
videogames are dead
>better games releasing with more heart and feeling put in to them
Name them.
I sort of don't care. I will play it on Game Pass, then forget about it until the ultimate legendary giga edition with years of DLC is on sale for $5.
You know what starfield reminds me of, Precursors, it also had vehicles.
That was a long time ago.
Can‘t wait for the outfits in this game
I think what I like about Bethesda games isn't the story or the combat but the ability to be a nobody in a weird other world
It's a bit of the Sims appeal, but more visceral given you're just yourself and playing in first person
I'm just gonna say it.
Starfield is the least ambitious Bethesda game.
>He actually thinks Starfield will have 1000 fully hand crafted planets worth of content
Delusional. It'll all be procgenslop with like 3-4 story related hand made dungeons.
Why are you strawmanning? No one said that, even Todd said only a fraction of the 1000 planets have handcrafted content.
>No one said that
Yeah they did.
After you strawmanned and made up claims.
>1000 fully hand crafted planets worth of content
Yes. Every planet is hand-crafted. What evidence do you have to the contrary?
>well i think-
Fanfiction, then.
None of the locations and dungeons are procgen. They are placed by procgen, but they are all handcrafted, or else we'd never the hear the end of it because Todd loves that shit.
Calling it now, they will have like 5-6 tile sets to build dungeons from, and then they'll make a bunch of samey looking dungeons and maybe 5 in the entire game will even be rememberable.
You know, just like Skyrim, and Oblivion, and Morrowind and Fallout.
>calling it now the game will be like their previous games
Sherlock Holmes over here.
People who are upset: 75 IQ morons who thought this was gonna be some revolutionary experience.
People who are excited: 130 IQ people who have always been fully aware that it was going to be Skyrim x10 and in space.
It’s Skyrim with procedurally generated worlds. Some day we will get Minecraft with realistic terrain models but we’d need a paradigm shift in the way we do 3D for that to occur.
Correct, even FO4 if a more fun experience than most games coming out today, FO4's reveal was so good people had massive expectations, so they consider it a bad game because it wasn't the greatest thing ever like they wanted it to be.
People disappointed thought this would be Star Citizen with a Fallout 4 map on every random planet full of well written quests. That was never gonna happen and never will
>Why are you even mentioning Sony here? Are you unable to argue any point without screaming SNOY? Literally you are the only one trying to bring sony up and start shit. Everyone else is talking about the game and how it's obviously going to be bad.
>Space game
>RPG
>Bethesda game
Personally I'm really looking forward to it
Baldur's Gate 3 has made me realize that I don't like open world RPGs, they've just been so normalized that I forgot how shitty they are
Not gonna lie, Baldurs Gate 3 is about as close to doing it right as a game has come in a very long time. Bethesda games are always big open worlds but shallow as frick, while games with a lot of depth are almost always too narrow in scope. Baldurs Gate 3 did a good attempt at being somewhere in the middle, having good depth while also being reasonably wide.
It's not there yet and needs a lot of ease of use features, but it's a step in the right direction and I hope developers learn some lessons from it.

Starfield is pretty much already a guranteed success, as much as snoys will try to shitpost they're gonna be disappointed when the game is a commercial and critical success
Cyberpunk was also a commercial success. And that too was a wild fricking month.
even that one backfried on Ganker when the anime came out and normies loved it again
really the lesson here is that you shouldn't waste your time hating things, if you think a game looks shit just ignore it and move on with your life, don't spend months trying to make it fail out of spite
>everyone I know is eagerly skipping it.
Do you hang around brown skinned playstation users? Try not to incite a riot monkey
It's clear they wanted to do something ambitious and never done before but it just ended up being boring.
It's not even ambitious though. No Mans Sky does it but better. More planets, bigger planets, can fly between them, can fly down to planets and back into space. Has base building (can even build a town and run a colony), has dungeons and loot and everything else Starfield has but to an infinitely larger scale.
It's not even the most ambitious Bethesda game. Daggerfall will have a larger play area than all of the 1000 planets in Starfield combined do and Daggerfall ran in fricking MS DOS.
>No Mans Sky does it but better
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Name something Starfield does better than No Mans Sky. I'll wait.
Starfield wins in the "romance" department by default.
Looks prettier.
It’s not even out yet
Being an actual game with many hours of main sotry quests / sidequests etc?
No Mans Sky is an actual game with not just one, or even two, but 3 main story lines and many side quests? Have you even played the game or are you just spouting random shit you heard?
No Mans Sky has a better engine.
More guns.
Doesn't need stealth archer being the only good play style.
Has world building.
Has spaceship building and customization.
Not sure it needs waifus but that granny isn't someone I want to romance.
No Mans Sky has billions of planets that are fully explorable.
Haven't heard the music so you can't just say it's better.
No Mans Sky has plenty of mods.
Graphics are subjective.
Can you do any of this in Starfield?
Fly your ship to any point on a planet and land/take off?
Build an underwater base?
Build a space base?
Build up a colony?
Play with friends?
Tame and breed pets in a complex system that involves genetics?
Ride a variety of vehicles?
>More guns
There is literally only two guns in the entire game, pistol and rifle. The reskins have zero impact on how they function
>Doesn't need stealth archer being the only good play style.
There is only two combat play styles at best, shooting and launching grenades.
>Has spaceship building and customization.
No it doesn't. You can build a base on your freighter, can't build the ship you fly on and even the color customization is lesser in NMS
https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Multi-tool_Weapons
No Mans Sky basically has all the weapon types you'd expect a game to have.
>Have you even played the gam
I played it for about an hour and all I was doing is collecting resources on a cartoony looking planet. Refunded.
Okay, FRICK YOU Black person. I played that game for 300 fricking hours and this is a dirty fricking lie.
>No Mans Sky is an actual game with not just one, or even two, but 3 main story lines and many side quests? Have you even played the game or are you just spouting random shit you heard?
The main story is MMO tier fetch quest shit. You think Bethesda makes shitty quests? Oh boy, try the fricking Atlas path.
>No Mans Sky has a better engine.
BAHAHAHAHA
Crash/freeze/get stuck often with no manual saves
>More guns.
I'll give you this, I like NMS' guns. BUT NOT THE SHITTY GUNPLAY FOR SURE
>Doesn't need stealth archer being the only good play style.
The combat in NMS is complete shit.
>Has world building.
It's worse than fricking Fallout 4.
>Has spaceship building and customization.
LIE
>Not sure it needs waifus but that granny isn't someone I want to romance.
Skill issue
>No Mans Sky has billions of planets that are fully explorable.
And are bad.
>Haven't heard the music so you can't just say it's better.
NMS has a good soundtrack, but not as good as Starfield's.
>No Mans Sky has plenty of mods.
Not as much as Starfield will.
>Graphics are subjective.
Subjectively shit.
>Can you do any of this in Starfield?
YES
>Can you do any of this in Starfield?
you are making nms out to be something it's not... fun
nms was an embarrassment at launch and took like six years to get where it is today
every system feels tacked on to this day
planet generation absolutely sucks and isn't as varied as you'd think
on top of that it's still not fun to explore
t.270 hours in nms
I agree. No Mans Sky is shit. But what is the game that is No Mans Sky Lite going to be? Shit Lite?
go sob somewhere else, snoyslave
homie you're on the wrong website if you think I'm not going to spend the next month shit talking Starfield. And then when it releases I'm going to spend another month laughing at all you idiots who thought it would be a good game.
Can't wait till TLOU2 Multiplayer comes out. Oh wait, it's in devhell!
>The snoy accusations start again
Seethe and cope more homosexuals. Your game is so shit you can't even defend it against some random shitposter mostly making up lies on the spot.
see it's the
>Your game
part that proves you're a special snoyflake
imagine being so enslaved by a brand you have to shittalk a game that isn't out yet
>b-but im gonna spend a whole month seething and coping over an xbox game!
>and then im gonna cry for another month when it sells millions of copies anyway and people like it!
the snoy slave shares their itinerary with the class
Why would you admit you're a salty obsessive loser who spends his life shitposting about games he doesn't play? It's just sad man, what a self-own post
Don't you have better things to do with your time? Maybe not considering PS5 has no games lol
The PS5's lack of games really isn't giving you a lot of options, is it?
>muh ps5
The writing is on the wall, but you're so butthurt at snoy that you refuse to see all the red flags telling you that starfield will be shit
It will be good, trust the plan
better engine
better guns
better stealth
better world building
better spaceship building
better waifus
better exploration
better music
better mods
better graphics
this is speculatory because the game isn't actually out but I feel confident Starfield will be better at these things
>Daggerfall will have a larger play area than all of the 1000 planets in Starfield combined do and Daggerfall ran in fricking MS DOS.
Wow it's like there's a compromise to be made between detail/content and the scale of a flat surface with the same repeating texture.
Compare a village in Daggerfall with the largest settlement in Starfield and laugh.
The same few copy/pasted buildings and a couple of 2D sprites for items, trees and lampost.
Do you genuinely believe this is computationally intensive compared to trying to have individual high poly buildings and objects scattered all around the streets? Are you comparing 2D sprites with 3D objects and how both are rendered?
I'm not laughing, I'm asking if you have any idea what you're talking about. Again it's a compromise with scale and detail. Drawing a repeating surface with the same texture costs virtually nothing and that's why 1990s hardware could do it (remember Delta Force had repeating terrain using voxels, meaning you could walk forever out of the mission area). Repeating the same few 2D sprites and very low res house models is how most games tried to give you a sense of scale.
>More planets
Less points of interest
>bigger planets
Less geography
>can fly between them
Planets don't orbit anything and are too clustered
>can fly down to planets and back into space
boring filler
>Has base building (can even build a town and run a colony)
Starfield does it better cause NPCs that live in the town are way more complex
>has dungeons
Since fricking when? A single room with bug-aliens surrounding it is not a dungeon. Digging out a half-buried freighter is not a dungeon.
>loot
No armor, no actual weapons, no consumables, nothing but tech upgrades and materials to replenish bars to collect more materials
When was the last time you played No Mans Sky? Like 7 years ago? Almost everything you said is false.
No Mans Sky has many points of interest now (in the thousands) and adds more with every update.
It's geometry gets more complex with every update and can generate wildly different looking planets.
Flying around a planet is boring filter? So what is a loading screen?
No Mans Sky has literal colony sim mode. Not just place a few buildings and NPCs come. You manage a colony like some sort of simulation game.
No Mans Sky has had procedurally generated dungeons for like 3 years now. They include exploration, puzzles, enemies to kill and loot to gather.
No Mans Sky has had armor and actual weapons for ages. It has consumables including hundreds of varieties of food with multiple uses.
that's cool, but I don't care
>When was the last time you played No Mans Sky? Like 7 years ago?
This year.
>No Mans Sky has many points of interest now (in the thousands) and adds more with every update.
No, they haven't updated that in forever.
>It's geometry gets more complex with every update and can generate wildly different looking planets.
It used to, but then they gimped it for switch.
>Flying around a planet is boring filter? So what is a loading screen?
A way for the game not to run at 2fps.
>No Mans Sky has literal colony sim mode. Not just place a few buildings and NPCs come. You manage a colony like some sort of simulation game.
Settlements in NMS suck dick, you exhaust all the content within like, a day, and you can only have one settlement.
>No Mans Sky has had procedurally generated dungeons for like 3 years now. They include exploration, puzzles, enemies to kill and loot to gather.
Copy pasted over and over, no reason to explore or collect loot when you can just make a farm.
>No Mans Sky has had armor and actual weapons for ages. It has consumables including hundreds of varieties of food with multiple uses.
Bullshit. No Man Sky's armor is cosmetic only. And it's food system is shallow outside of using it to farm units.
Go frick yourself, you lying Star Shitizen falseflagging Black person.
>in the thousands
POI as in a unique outpost, ruin, etc that is distinct from any other that will spawn. The raised platform trading post for instance. Fat fricking chance the 26 yahoos at Hello Games managed to make that many considering they were content with less than 50 total POI for years after the game was released.
Hey everyone, i'm making a thread telling you all that I'mnot interested in a new game thats coming out soon. I am totally not butt mad that I can't actually play it because the only thing I have is a playstation
Me? I'm looking forward to romancing Sarah morgan
Ganker Told me Cp2077 was bad and would flop, but now it has anime, DLC, and a sequel on the way.
Ganker Told me BG3 would flop but now it's one of the most played RPGs on steam.
Ganker Told me the Switch would flop but now it's currently carrying nintendo through a gaming golden age.
Ganker said Skyrim and Fallout 4 were gonna flop but they're both beyond iconic games now.
Why is Starfield gonna be any different?
It won't. Prepare for mass suicides on launch day.
Maybe you went to a different Ganker to me.
Ganker was hyped as frick about Cyberpunk until it released. Literally until like a minute before it released people on Ganker were acting like it was going to save gaming. Then we had a month of people laughing at how bad it was.
I also do not remember Ganker saying Skyrim or Fallout 4 would flop. And I'd hardly call Fallout 4 iconic.
>Ganker was hyped as frick about Cyberpunk until it released. Literally until like a minute before it released people on Ganker were acting like it was going to save gaming.
This is untrue, Cyberpunk had lots of shitposting leading up the release, it's where the Shazam meme started. Ganker was very concerned about the Keanu Reeves voice acting, the vehicles and apparent dumbing down of the RPGs elements.
GUYS!!!
don't care, didn't read, still preordered Starfield
>Then you have it surrounded by much, much, MUCH better games releasing with more heart and feeling put in to them.
Cool. What games are they?
>dudes just sprinting at the MC in their spacesuits with a melee weapon
What the frick is wrong with bethesda?
I have no issues with the way the game looks itself, I have issues with the fact it's gonna be a bunch of randomly generated planets with assets plopped in randomly.
I don't think you really know what it means. Literally anyone making large areas of landscape will procedurally generate it, rather than handcrafting valleys and mountains. It actually looks more realistic if its procedurally generated. Its also not randomly generating the planets "ingame", its premade using generation and every person will see the same worlds with the same landscape.
>Planet B4
>Alien squid runs at me on the hilly rocks
>Planet Cygnus-9
>Alien elephant runs at me on the grassy rocks
>Its also not randomly generating the planets "ingame", its premade using generation and every person will see the same worlds with the same landscape.
What you say makes no real sense nor difference, it's all randomly generated except every player derives his world generation from the same seed.
You still dont understand. Lets say you are creating a world in a game. Are you gonig to hand model valleys and mountains and little craggy bits? Have you any idea how fake that would look? Procedural generation looks more realistic, because the actual real world is procedurally generated. Take a tree for example. It grows according to a "procedure". The trunk grows to a certain point then splits. The branches grow to a certain point then split again, etc etc. With many envornmental factors it essentially makes every tree "random" but with a similar basic structure. A forest in a game that used procedural generation would look more realistic than taking "tree_model_1" and plonking that around 2000 times in an area. Procedural terrain generation is better than handcrafting it, especially if you want 1000 planets. The terrain is procedurally generated, in studio, and then the world that is created is "saved" and that is put into the game. Its a better way to do it than attempting to hand model multiple entire planets and make them all look different.
>You still dont understand.
I do, what you try to explain is obvious to everyone but you. Just this part:
>The terrain is procedurally generated, in studio, and then the world that is created is "saved" and that is put into the game.
Show how clueless you are.
Just understand that no one quite disagrees with you, what you say just makes no sense because it works differently from what you think.
Thats exactly how it is. You are not loading the game and it is generating a bunch of planets, they are already made and in the game. There will be some random placement of things like an enemy base in a random place, but the worlds are already made and in the game before you start.
>the worlds are already made and in the game before you start
You underestimate the amount of data it represents. That's not how it works, that's not how it worked for close to 20 years. You just have the same seeds used for generating the same worlds, but don't think every planet is hard coded, you have no fricking clue.
I don't know how it works but ultimately the point is that it won't give you a bunch of different planets every time you play, but the same planets in every game
You're only trying to argue because you don't quite understand how it works and think there's a disagreement. That's why I told you no one disagrees with you.
The disagreement then is that "procedural generation = bad". I disagree with that, in terms of natural environments. Hand-crafted natural things look fake as frick, procedural is the better way to make convincing terrain.
>Hand-crafted natural things look fake as frick
Disagreeable, there's no such axiom. It's all about skill, and both skill and algorithms can be improved and used together.
In terms of terrain and such, I think so. Also can you imagine some poor c**t having to make 1000 worlds by hand carving cliffs and lakes and shit
It's actually doable, in fact. The issue with modern computer operators is that they don't use more ergonomic ways to operate computers. They're still stuck on mere keyboards.
Perhaps it's in part due to generalized pc form factor that stuck since when, 60s or 80s? Mouse, keyboard, etc.
Through more intelligent control systems, with integrated math systems, and smart automation, it's possible to dispense with the need to sit in front of a monitor, and no longer be limited to an analogue of writing an immense magnum opus a letter at a time.
>integrated math systems, and smart automation
or you could make an algorithm that makes realistic looking cliffs and lakes and shit and go and get a coffee while it runs
That too.
Or both, and press a button on a coffee maker while relaxing. Science!
moron.
The Snoys have lost this battle.
I claim this thread in the name of Bethesda Games Studios.
>game not even out
>already wank overload
Fricking have a nice day you useless fricks. Holy shit
Lol even the melee animation is from Fallout 4.
>It's ok when Bethesda reuse assets from older games
It's hilarious and depressing that after almost 30 YEARS no game has better arcade combat than Tie Fighter and no game is a better space sim than Independence War 2.
WHERE ARE THE SEXY ROBOTS TODD?
No robots. No aliens. No fun allowed. Just "nasapunk".
They have already shown, bipedal robots and big robo dogs
OMG HECKIN ROBOFIDOIO!
Nah they look like the wolfenstein panzerhunds
kino if i can have them as pets
Those are just quadrupedal robots. They’re probably a nod to the Boston Dynamics robots that became popularized around the same time this game started development
Nope this one is based on the BD robot Spot which has the small peg feet unlike the previous one which has be noticeable attack claws
Correct.
They are an evolution of what we have now, they just didn't want to go too much over the top so they kept it at a utilitarian industrial design.
nasapunk is cool, I like it
Your very first companion is Codsworth version 2. He even says your name if the dialogue supports it
Isn't Sarah Morgan the first companion?
I don’t think so. She’s the leader of the organization you work for
from what I've heard she almost immediately joins your party
100% there, along with alien sex.
Lies and slander.
>default option on character creation screen is a black guy
No thank you, Todd. I think I'll sit this one out
did someone noticed this? so many anti X threads, from Zelda to Starfield lately, BG3 subhumans?
The trifecta of good games snoy hates.
This is just the natural state of Gankeredditors desperately craving the sweet dopamine hit from the second coming of the TORtanic that will never come.
Sure, I could afford to eat gourmet angus burgers whenever I want, but sometimes what I want is just a greasy quarter pounder from McDonald's.
I dunno it's not out yet. it's moronic to judge a game before it's out,
I will play and see if it's good. If it's good, I might buy it (once, todd)
simple as
>it's moronic to judge a game before it's out
Well this isn't Bethesda's first game, and these aren't Todd's first lies. Everyone knows you should pirate it first just to be sure.
name one time todd lied
Spears.
Ask if you want another.
well, all of todd's games, even the "garbage" ones like Fallout 4, still gave me an easy 150 hours of fun.
fallout 76 wasnt a todd game.
Yeah Todd lies a lot, or more like he exagerates. But he makes good games, that's what matters. I mean, unless you're some nerd who gets hurt and falls for "hype" shit. lol
I wouldn't call his games good, but they definitely have a lot of content if that's what you're after.
Had tons of fun too, albeit with mods mostly. But it's starting wear down everyone, playing the same game with the same glitches and the same mods fixing the same problems, it reached a breaking point for many, just look at this entire thread.
I played Skyrim and F3 on PS3 and both were abysmal for me, though F3 was a bit better. I imagine the only way to enjoy it really is with mods.
I hated Skyrim, F3, and F4 so I'm definitely not buying this, but if you want this more power to you. Bethesda gameplay just isn't fun for me.
Yeah it's kinda embarrassing. Westacuck vidya might die with Starfield.
lads, the kpoop homosexual is here
>complaining about character generation without seeing its entire extent
Come on now.
>B-B-BUT IT'S STILL IN BEEEEETAAAAAAA
Shut the frick up you damage controlling shill lmao
All models in this game look insanely shit. We've seen enough presets to determine that it's indeed shit. No amount of useless sliders that don't change anything will fix the models/teeth/facemorhps/hair textures/skin/soulless plastic eyes etc.
>individual people with vastly different facial features
LMAO?
They all look like uncanny mutt goblins.
That loos fine, ti just looks like a person. Total nitpicking tardation.
Google eyes straight outta 2008 WEG
Bethesda always had ugly character models this isn't new.
this, it was always a wonky but comfy single player experience. too much people these days only seem to care about graphics.
There were a lot of ugly options but you could make nice lookin on characters if you tried in Skyrim and FO4 without even using mods. Default Nora is basically just 50s tradwife
Ugly =/= same faces.
It's impossible to tell a asiatic from another.
You just have face blindness since you're autistic and gay.
>he says after posting Facial Surgery Korean #500
try again
Generic trannime/bugpeople plastic face vs individual people with vastly different facial features.
Do any of your koreaslop games have good gameplay, though?
BDO and Vindictus have better melee mechanics than Bethslop, yeah.
>Vindictus
>mixed on steam
Game would be more interesting if it was one star system with like 5 highly detailed planets tbh.
That's lame as frick, there's no exploration to that. Outer Worlds tried that shit and it was gay as hell.
don't care, preordered premium edition.
morrowind, fallout 3-4, oblivion and skyrim gave me more hours of fun than 99% of other games and replayed them multiple times each with and without mods. will do the same with starfield.
>morrowind, fallout 3-4, oblivion and skyrim gave me more hours of fun than 99% of other games and replayed them multiple times each with and without mods.
Same here. I should be more ashamed, but they're just so fricking comfy. Preordering is dumb though, you know it's going to be the usual Bethesda quality at launch.
>morrowind, fallout 3-4, oblivion and skyrim gave me more hours of fun than 99% of other games and replayed them multiple times each with and without mods. will do the same with starfield.
Based video game enjoyer
Are normies really filtered by the space setting? I love space...
>Everyone knows it'll be broken and unplayable too like every other Bethesda game on launch, cause they rely on and steal user fixes to make their games actually work.
Kek, maybe you should have been at the launch of all those games, zoom-zoom.
Oblivion was literally eye cancer and unplayable without visual mods due to the hideous choice of potato skulls. Both Fallout 3 and NV crashed with the multi-core bug every 10 to 15 minutes like clockwork and that was NEVER fixed, I still have to edit the .ini each time.
they worked fine on my xbox 360
I see nobody is arguing about the Oblivion faces though.
oblivion faces are soul and funny
Worked on my machine.

I'm entirely willing to believe the narrative that it's a bunch of sony kids whining because they won't be able to play this on their preferred platform.
it is a No Man's Sky Fallout 4 mod. nothing exciting really.

I'm waiting for starfield to come out though
>IP count didn't change
But it did you fricking moron.
>IP count still hasn't changed
I very much doubt any generation is going on at run time. Far too CPU expensive.
Don't worry anon, I'm sure there will eventually be some games for the PS5. Just keep holding out till then, you can do it!

It'll be 'fixed' in much the same style as they 'fixed' the ability to run out of fuel. In fact they'll probably just teleport to you like Lydia, Piper etc. does.
I think I read somewhere that the planets are made by making a bunch of tiles and joining them together at random, so it might end up with repeated sections. But I don't really have a clue. BUt also those planets are probably just somewhere to go to farm some iron or whatever. The hand-crafted content wil be more than any of their games previosuly, just spread out a bit more.
>refunding my preorder
>so i can get premium edition instead
There's a certain type of bland sci-fi that loves the aesthetics of NASA and generic Carl Sagan humanism but has no unique inspiration, edge or individuality to it. It is like sci-fi blended into a generic, all purpose inoffensive product, just like the gray jumpsuits you know everyone will be wearing.
you're making a few too many assumptions, very little is known about the lore or plot of Starfield
trailers are made so that videogame players can make assumptions, genius. I'm not impressed with anything I've seen.
that's it, starfield is finished
cancel the game anon has dropped his hot take
I think it looks neat, I think most of the seething about the lore is no blue aliens to frick honestly
On the other side there's sc-fi that is basically fantasy in space or soap opera but blue people with shit on their foreheads. Two of my favorite series are Battlestar Galactica and The Expanse
take good care of Ganker while we are exploring the universe and having fun please snoys
Try to keep bloodborne threads to a minimum of 5
it looks like a game running on a heavily modded engine from 1997, like gamebyro
which it is
as are most big AAA engines
ah yes. its just like other garbage games
Ahh yes all of these games that have used decades old engines are trash, this isn't even the full image, it won't fit and it's only acc**ting for FPS games
Here's the full image:
https://files.catbox.moe/bqvqku.jpg
....yeah, i looked at everything past 2012 and yeah, its trash
Okay so name me a good engine created after 2012
there isnt. just to skip ahead a post or two, ill just ask now: how does there not being any new decent engines change starfield looking terrible because its built on an ancient engine? if there was a good modern engine, what difference would it make. to starfield, specifically. does garbage become a 5 star meal if theres no alternative? or is it just....garbage.
Ahh there's no good modern engines and the old are also bad too. Actually everything is bad. All engines ever used for the past 10 years are bad. You know what I think you just might be moronic
no, the old ones are good, for their time. i still play them. its kinda weird you made that assumption out of the blue, completely unprompted. kinda sounds like cope.
So what is your barometer for a good modern engine. You say there isn't one and using a old modified one is bad for some reason so what does this "good engine" have to do to meet your standards
well, more features, better performance, not restricted by any old quirks, code thats not optimized primarily for ancient hardware, id probably go with those. but, let me refer you to the question i already asked. ill just copy and paste it for you so you dont need to scroll up. oh, and and its not "some reason", the reason is "it looks bad"
>ill just ask now: how does there not being any new decent engines change starfield looking terrible because its built on an ancient engine? if there was a good modern engine, what difference would it make. to starfield, specifically. does garbage become a 5 star meal if theres no alternative? or is it just....garbage.
there ya go, friendo
Okay here's the answer to your question it is, what's the point in harping on the engine if it doesn't matter then. It's bad that they're using a modified old engine, but there is also no good modern engine too. It sounds moronic. Leads to your barometer for a "good engine" being also moronic
>"more features"
what features, be specific
>"better performance"
what better performance, that can mean anything, be specific
>not restricted by old quirks
this is any new engine, well that's not true they would also have to make their own programming languages, tools, and OS to not be restricted by "old quirks" of any kind
>code thats not optimized primarily for ancient hardware
ancient can mean anything you have to give a time frame, 5 year old or 10 year old hardware can be called ancient and how does this even hold back an engine from being good. Ideally a good engine would be vastly scalable
Really all you said for an engine to be good is it has to be "more good", utter moron speak
>string section starts playing
>Bethesda logo rolls into view
beyond hyped bros
space cowboys we are going home
Everything about it looks kino
>That stormy baren planet with those weird blue things
I WILL be building a base there
That moon shinning in the distance on the second scene, I love it. I don't think I've seen a moon on a day time in other games, always come out with the darkness.
Barren planets wil have more resoruces. Build outposts to mine resources and assign NPCs to oversee them, and robots to defend, implying they can be attacked
ShitI didn't even realise it went this far, I'm gonna be spending hours arranging furniture again

You'll be fine. I'm the one that should be worried with 1060
Anon you're not even hitting the minimum requirement
thanks bros
If you're an ausgay check metrocom on ebay. ex mining gpus but controlled environments and all have a 1 year warranty. Picked up a 6800 earlier this year for 380 with the ebay premium trial

I really hope this Anon didn't forget the promise he made me
>Ctrl + F "No Man's Sky"
good job guys
Tbh I'm just planning to play BG3 for the time being. I know the systems, voice acting and story is going to be weaker in Starfield in every possible way and I'm not willing to waste my time with it just yet.
what if Todd announces you can frick bears in Starfield?
>You can use the xenobiologist skill to frick alien wildlife
Todd-sama I.......
>your ship is essentially a mobile harem for xenobestiality....
>todd announces they paid VA's for like, 50,000 lines of dialogue
>a.i voice generation becomes a thing like 2 weeks later
>todds face
>now they won't know I lied
That's not wasted, those lines will serve as a dataset to train the AI and give endless content.
>50,000 lines of dialogue
More like 250,000+
AI voices only work with English (language of dogs).
Thankfully Bethesda is one of the few devs that provide Glorious Nippon language packs.
If you didn't play Skyrim, Fallout 4 and Cyberpunk 2077 with Japanese voices I pity you.
KAWAIII tbh SENPAI ERRU KATSU CHICKEN
oh god i bet the fricking fallout dub in japanese would be hilarious, i gotta youtube this
Racism is cringe.
Unlike the talentless parasites larping as "voice actors" in the west, Japanese Seiyū will not be so easily replaced.
who
中村 一葉
sorry i dont read korean
also they do voice generation in other languages now too
私のゲームを購入していただきありがとうございます!
I never bought a single Bethesda game and I never will.
However I did donate to Japanese and Korean Skyrim modders.
私はあなたを見つけて殺します。
I'll demo it via Game Pass then buy it once the compete edition is cheap.
sonybro here, finally got my series X today, looks like I'll be joining the party in the stars after all. what is the first thing i should do with my SeX?
>He bought an Xbox
Shoulda put that money towards building a PC
Get wishlisting as Microsoft has weekly sales. My Series X is mostly a backwards compatibility box.
exactly. get gamepass and you can suddenly play almost the entire x360 and xone catalog.
play shredders, it's a good snowboarding game
also get into dev mode so you can play your old ps1/ps2 library on console
check out the free games section and download both too human and phantom dust RIGHT NOW
I really hope it's good
It's going to be funny how rabid Snoys get as the Starfield release date approaches. This thread is already a comedic goldmine of raging, disinfo, concern trolling. We've got most of a month to go still too.
seriously who wants to play fallout 4, much less fallout 4 in space in 2023?
More people play FO4 than 3 or NV.
>I'm sorry but doesn't everything about this game look kinda... pathetic?
Dude, it's a Bethesda game, of course it's pathetic and will be absolutely mediocre. Won't stop morons from buying it and fervently defending it from criticism though. I can already see the "I'm having fun therefore it's good" arguments.
I have thousands of hours in modded Fallout 4, my body is ready for SF
You have to remember the fanbase. Its going to be like Elden Ring where it isnt fun but everyone tells themselves it is so it just becomes true. Battlebit style.
But it will be fun and good
Elden Ring is fun though. Starfield will avoid its trappings by being more random. Even Skyrim and FO4 avoided it with random events and radiant that led you to different starting dungeons. FO4 added random elements to dungeons as well. On my second survival playthrough of FO4 I assumed I could just breeze through Olivia but the game threw molerats strapped with mines at me
