I’m getting more Fallout 4 in space tbh.

with guns yes. But the quest lines, companions, dialogue options, how factions work all scream skyrim

I mean, let’s be frank here, almost all of those elements were pretty shallow in Skyrim.

We’re in a post Witcher 3, Divinity, Disco Elysium, and now Baldur’s Gate 3, world.

Not only that, but with games like RDR2 and BOTW/TOTK even open world gaming expectations have changed. The best open world games nowadays are systems based, logic based, physics based. Raw landmass alone doesn’t count for too much anymore.

I guess it remains to be seen if Bethesda has evolved their formula to compete with that, because hoarding sandwiches doesn’t really have the same charm to it, especially when you got all the wild s*** you can do with random objects in Larian titles.

Starfield is 140gb on pc

One of the songs on James’ new album was actually made for the movie Ad Astra (but didn’t make the cut). While it remains to be seen whether said song has a sci-fi vibe, at least the album has kind of a connection to outer space

Idk if they talked about quests in the Discord Q&A (have yet to read it all), but they did talk about it in an official video before.

Recap here: resetera.com/threads/new-starfield-video-talking-starfield-quests-with-will-shen.664765

dialogue system looks more like fallout 3 tho, compared to skyrim

Also fallout 4 had a better companion system and it seems like that’s what we’re getting here

Factions seem like they’ll work more like Skyrim tho, as in you won’t have to choose between them you can just do all the quests for all factions without them conflicting

Did any idiot ask about the story?

Man I cannot wait

need to finish totk asap..

Any new news?

Wait, all the factions can be done independently? Again?

Then what’s the point of there even being factions?

It’s the “I’m the leader of the Mage’s Guild despite only knowing a basic healing/fire spell” all over again.

Nah they say in the q&a no ranking up to leader in all these guilds like previous games

Is there any kind of conflict if you jump between factions? Any consequences?

They can’t be do another “Master of the Universe” game right?

I believe it was answered in the starfield direct but honestly I forget. All I know is this has no more max rank every faction you lead everything s***

Huh?

my two 1 TB m.2 drives are screaming for help

Gonna be playing Starfield strictly in 1st-person on Series X with a headset on and in 3rd-person on Series S through TV speakers.
Finna be interesting to alternate between the two systems

Do you all like or dislike the whole silent protagonist thing?

Depends on the game.

RPGs, Half Life, Doom, GTA 3, visual novels, etc are great, but s*** got on my nerves in Far Cry 5

This game needs it. Fallout 4 protag speaking was ass, it limits convo choices

Interesting lol. I know most have mixed feelings about it and some love it and like you for some it depends on the game or game type. Personally I don't like it man I want my main character to talk lmao. Just seems weird all these characters talking to you and you just quiet, or get to just choose a dialogue option ha. I'm still gonna play this though.
