“Join Game Director Todd Howard and the Starfield development team as they dive deep into the first new universe from Bethesda Game Studios in over 25 years.”
What do you all think? I’m actually pretty impressed by the gameplay they showed off. Definitely going to wait for reviews but I’m hoping they pull it off. Would love for someone to finally deliver a good sci-fi game of this scale.
prediction:
did a bit google and I am right on the last bit already. source
edit: oh, and judging from the video shown, their star system’s planets will remain pretty close together just for better visuals. Space is incredibly huge and if they even put planets like what we have the night sky would be pretty boring. They can’t afford to do proper nbodies simulation so most of plantes/moons etc are just orbiting on specific pace/path that are not realistic or physically correct.(judging from how they put planet together, the gas giant vs rocky planet sizes are pretty off as well.)
It might not be a bad thing for a Beth game, after all, all that space is free real estate for modders, and it will lead to less conflicts since big mods can just take over a bunch of planets no one else really uses, and everyone can take over different ones. Or even add new ones I guess.
Yeah, if it’s in terms of modding then that’s pretty good. But it would take some time as it’s a new engine right?
AFAIK same engine, just a big upgrade. Even if it’s new though, Beth will most likely let modders use the tools they do to build the game.
