The bad "V"
A space flying sim too apparently!Agreed, I was expecting and hoping for a Bethseda space RPG and that's what we're getting. It wasn't going to be anything else surely.

He should be thread banned as he never posts anything positive.It's also worth remembering that this thread is 80% PS5 fans on holiday
And whatever @Redlambs is. An anarchist?
Exactly this, I expected people shitting on it, no matter what they shown, because, people, can't be helped. I liked what I saw.Agreed, I was expecting and hoping for a Bethseda space RPG and that's what we're getting. It wasn't going to be anything else surely.

Something to wow me... More hoping than expecting tbf.I need to know. What were you expecting?
1,000 planets too. It'll take me years to completeA space flying sim too apparently!
Fair enoughSomething to wow me... More hoping than expecting tbf.
Visually very impressive but the gameplay doesn’t look anything to shout home about. It looks a bit wonky, particularly the gun play.is it me or starfield kind of looks like poop
It was meant to be the next big Bethesda open world game following their tried and tested formula. Which it clearly is.I don't give a shit about all that, as a gamer this was supposed to be the big thing to look forward to.
It's Bethseda, we all wanted to hope but we all know deep down this will be a mess. And it already looks fecking awful graphically.
I agree and disagree.Think it looks great. Not convinced that it is coming out in the next 12 months though. At least, not sure that it should come out in the next 12 months.
If you don't like Elder Scrolls or Fallout then obviously you're not going to like this though. The gameplay and performance is always janky vs a tighter single player experience. It's the overall package that will hopefully make it stand out.
Was hoping for evolution, innovation. Was hoping that MS money and oversight might help them to reach a higher level. Maybe that will happen at some point, but this wasn't the trailer to exhibit that. I've been playing their games since Morrowind.Think it looks great.

Waaah waaah waaaaaah!
All jokes aside, there were only 3/4 games that I'll likely pick up: Hollow Knight, Persona, Starfield and CoccoonAverage show for me. I was brought around a little by Kojima and I liked Starfield.
Best Xbox news of the last week is that Shredder's Revenge is going in GamePass. I can't wait for that!
Agreed. Biome diversity looks great. If they're all empty as feck but a few dinosaurs though, it'll be for nothing.Good scale - let's see if the worlds have enough soul and intrigue though
What would have been evolution for you?Was going for evolution, innovation. Was hoping that MS money and oversight might help them to reach a higher level. Maybe that will happen at some point, but this wasn't the trailer to exhibit that. I've been playing their games since Morrowind.
Nope, I love games more than anyone in here.
Not completely inaccurate! (sorry @Redlambs)
Backtracking at it's finest!It was meant to be the next big Bethesda open world game following their tried and tested formula. Which it clearly is.
Not sure anybody expected innovation, which there clearly isn't.
If they don't change the engine for ES6 then I will be annoyed. This game was set out before the acquisition so it is what it is but I will always be hyped for a Bethesda game. I still play Skyrim now so I'm not upset by the graphics.I agree and disagree.
I will be playing this the moment it drops, no doubt.
But come on, that engine is exactly what they've done to us time and time again, it's poor at very best. Which means there will be breaking problems on launch and it will look like shit. But that will be fine if the game plays well! But will it? That gunplay looks awful and the space battles look mediocre.
I truly hope I'm talking it down out of desperation for it to be good, I really do. But my Spidey senses are tingling.
They are not changing the engine for ES6. It's the Starfield one currently.If they don't change the engine for ES6 then I will be annoyed.

I'm not backtracking. It's exactly what I expected to see. I still think it'll be a huge hit for Xbox and get lots of critical acclaim.Backtracking at it's finest!
I know what you mean though, you know I jest. However MS have been using this as the big "OH LOOK WE'VE CHANGED!" title, and it turns out it's exactly as mediocre as we all expected. It's not that I personally expected anything different, it's that I am a little bit sad that we all just accept the same thing.
Standards should rise, we've all paid a lot of money for a shiny new system. And that new system is running an engine that was obsolete 15 years ago.
What retro handheld are you rocking?Only maybe 3/4 I will play from the game pass additions. Then again I'm probably not the target given the only game I'm currently playing is Golden Sun on my retro handheld.
Whataboutism aside, the problem is there's at least something always going on at Nintendo and Sony. MS have bought Bethseda, a company known for the same old games that were once great and now are good but you know at a cost.I'm not backtracking. It's exactly what I expected to see.

I've never said it's going to be the best thing ever or push the needle though. Haven't hyped Starfield up much at all to be fair.
On that innovation front, outside of BOTW2 and maybe Elden Ring (though even that I'm not convinced), what games have pushed the needle in recent years? I'd argue that should be the biggest criticism of Sony too - really high quality games with high production values, but usually very formulaic.
We're all just having fun, you're chaotic neutral at worst.Nope, I love games more than anyone in here.
I don't want to see the world burn, I want to see it thrive. Just because I know what I'm talking about in terms of graphics and game design, doesn't mean I don't just want to have fun. The fact I'm in here watching this live without getting the heads up and I didn't bother with the Sony one (where I did) should show that I really give a shit about the games and competition coming from MS.
I will call things as I see them, I always do. There's way more critical people in here than me btw, makes me laugh to see those comments get overlooked though
Ambernic rg351mp. Cracking piece of kit.What retro handheld are you rocking?
I hope that they at least update it.They are not changing the engine for ES6. It's the Starfield one currently.
And it's not just about the graphics, it's the limitations all round.
Would love to see Xbox game pushing the needle. Just saying I was never expecting that from Starfield. Do think Gamepass gives them a chance to try new formats and be more adventurous but that hasn't really come through, not yet anyway.Whataboutism aside, the problem is there's at least something always going on at Nintendo and Sony.

For the record I genuinely didn't find out about what was going to be announced today upfront. I'm hyped for the VR stuff over at Sony, but I knew all about that ages ago so I didn't bother. I watched this today as a gamer hoping to see something. I wouldn't say I'm disappointed as that would mean I expected way more, but I am a little sad that most of it was pre-canned and they are still pretending to have "gameplay footage". It's still all clearly bullshots, and that is the same shit they've done from the start.
I remain a huge fan of the Xbox hardware, I remain disappointed in the fact it is still not getting utilised properly and that their game development division still haven't understood. fecking Americans.
Wouldn't that have been even more filler though? There was already quite a bit.They missed off some weird stuff that they could have at least mentioned, there's games in my Game Pass App such as Two Point Campus and Hello Neighbour 2 in the coming soon section which would have bulked out the 3rd party games a bit.
Edit - maybe they're PC only which is why they missed off some
