Out of a 3 minute trailer, I saw 15 seconds of gameplay. But let's be real. This is Bethesda. We know what to expect. Tons of bugs and an already prepared statement to release after people realize their $70-$300 game isn't released in a playable state. The best thing to do is wait for release. Check out reviews from your favorite source and also User reviews. Then wait a year for the community mod that fixes all the bugs that Bethesda was not able to fix. Then you might as well wait another year for DLC and for Starfield to be on sale.

As always, try to keep your hype in check and wait for the release. It sure looks good now but we'll never know until someone has played it.

Let's hope it will work out excellent!

The Starfield Direct showing really sold me on this. It looks like it comes the closest to my dream space game of anything released so far. Elite Dangerous nailed the feel of piloting your own spacecraft, but I didn't get on with the actual structure of the game. No Man's Sky continues to do amazing things, but its spaceflight feels a bit too stripped back for me and it still feels a little too aimless for my tastes.

This looks like a perfect middle ground, all backed up with a full blown Bethesda RPG too keep me engaged. :D

My only criticisms based on the Direct are that characters, and indeed character interactions still look a bit dated compared to more recent games, especially Cyberpunk 2077, and that the combat still looks a little janky. Don't get me wrong, it looks a lot better than Bethesda's older games, but still seems to be showcasing some rather basic AI and spongey enemies. Hopefully the RPG elements will make this side of the game feel more rewarding.

Don’t know why but I’m skeptical. AAA releases have been quite often a disappointment for me the past few years. Hope it’s going to keep the promise…

After that 45 minute breakdown I'm very excited for No Man's Skyrim. I can definitely understand the hesitation, it's almost definitely gonna be riddled with bugs on release, but I've got gamepass, so I'll happily beta test for y'all!

Maybe I am just incredibly contrarian, but the art direction really inspires no emotions in me. I understand the idea of "NASApunk" but it looks like every DeviantArt near future art page. Blocky construction with a lot of triangle shaped cutouts and scalloping.

There is the cowboy sector and the cyberpunk sector, and on their own they look more interesting, but it seems like a kitchen sink approach to a tone instead of something with a more coherent identity.

I hope the game has more heart and identity, and I end up being one of those haters shown in a retrospective video on how great it is.

I really like what I'm seeing, ranging from the depth of things to do, to how granular the systems are, to how much I love the art direction Bethesda has taken. That said, it still won't be a day-1 buy for me when it launches, I simply don't trust big AAA releases anymore and will wait at least a little while to see if it's simply unpolished, or flat-out broken.

Based on the extended gameplay, I’m super hyper. Don’t think I’m going to pre order it. I have an old gaming laptop. No idea about optimization yet. But hopefully it’s Bethesda experience in space! Such times I really wish I had a decent gaming rig

I’m excited! It looks to have combined the universe of No Man’s Sky, the main storyline of Interstellar & Contact, and the diversity of factions and cities of Skyrim. I’m a Patient Gamer so I won’t be preordering (this game or any other), but I’m optimistic we will (eventually) have a winner.

I'm excited. It's Bethesda so of course it'll be full of bugs. In some ways it's become part of the Bethesda charm. The on planet gameplay looks like a very polished No Man's Sky and that's a good thing.

Are we gonna have 16 times the detail again?

Going to be interesting once the modding come about on Starfield. I would still wait for the reviews to come out before buying the game though.

Looks cool, but didn't look like it featured that much gameplay on a "Gameplay Trailer". My trust in Bethesda is at an all-time low, but let's see if they manage to pull this one through, without it being an empty universe with generic gameplay.

That got me pretty hyped.

The ships, cities, space travel, combat and planets look awesome.

Less enthused by the character designs and models which look straight out of Skyrim. Character faces still have dead eyes and barely any expression to them which frankly seems a little unacceptable in 2023. Nevertheless this is a day one for me, this looks like it has loads to enjoy.

And as soon as the mods start coming out oh boy, it’s going to be pretty awesome.

my big hope is that it'll run with proton on linux...

This looks very cool and like it'll hit a lot of things I like in games. But, woof, the "will I buy it?" decision tree will be nuts: Will it run well on my 1060? Do I want to play it enough to upgrade? How much will I need to spend? Will I use my PC enough to justify spending?

It does look cool, though.

I was kinda hoping we could get better facial reconstruction for NPCs compared to Skyrim considering how long it's been.

A space exploration game with a "scan everything" mechanic, what a surprise.. Really sick of this feature that replaces actual game design

Looking forward to ship and outpost building. I wonder how much freedom you have in factions you can join?

This looks fun. Happy it’s included with game pass. Gives a good chance to try it then buy the full game if it’s as good as I’m hoping.

It looks fantastic, really excited to get to play it in a few months. Remains to be seen whether or not my GTX 1060 is up for one more adventure or if this'll be the game that finally packs it in. Definitely still tempering my expectations on account of Bethesda's recent spotty track record.

One thing I would love to see is a diversity of biomes within one planet.

I want to be able to play this in vr. Modded Skyrimvr is probably the best gaming experience I've ever had.

With Bethesda making an entire galaxy for this game the next elder scrolls has got to come out alot quicker right? Going back to a single province(or maybe even a few) has to be a walk in the park by comparison Huff's more copium

I don't get the hype... I watched the gameplay trailer and it looks intensely underwhelming. Ignoring the sales jabber, it looks like a big, empty world which, at its best, is a knockoff of No Man's Sky. They barely show any shots that aren't the PC staring at a big, uninspired vista or having bland combat in bland sets. Considering how Bethesda releases go, how AAA releaes in general go, and the fact that trailers like these are supposed to OVERsell the game, I'm not really all that interested right now.

Excited for the ship building and the fact I can land anywhere on a planet. I'll try this out since I have Game Pass.
