No other changes.

Looks like Starfield will be a 'Play Anywhere' title, so it should have cross-saves between PC and Xbox if you're on game pass. https://twitter.com/StarfieldNews/status/1686324344102756353?s=20

Subsequent playthroughs feature an option to build a character using the difficulty level selection course from Quake. "Make sure to swim backwards after jumping through the final 'sexpot' portal for a hidden difficulty."

There will be no BG3 backlash because it will be GOTY.

Out of control hype, dodgy rushed release, there will absolutely be a backlash, deserved or undeserved. Which doesn't mean it won't be GOTY.

Nice!! It’s probably still locked at 30fps which kinda sucks though. Would be legit if it wasn’t lol.

CLAM DOWN posted:god i hope this game doesn't suck Excited, but im keeping my expectations in check this, unlike the last 1000 other times for really hyped up games. This time will be different, honest! Expecting a good and fun game, but actually ends up being limited in scope, and prepared to realize that some of the marketing footage ends up being misleading and/or not actually in the game.

If they manage to capture some sense of discovery, I'm happy. Gameplay-wise, I'd imagine it's close to Fallout 4, turbostrafing enemies and all.

looks like it will release at 5pm PT on the 31st, so we're 4 weeks away argh c'mon todd, just release it now and really gently caress with those bg3 people.

Do you have a source for that? It'd be nice to know for sure if the early access will drop a day earlier than expected

Just did a quick round of all the various storefronts the game is available on and everything that has an actual release date and not just "5 days early" for the premium editions state the release date as 1st September 2023. The caveat posted alongside this is: "*Actual play time depends on purchase date and is subject to possible outages and applicable time zone differences.". There's no mention of an unlock time anywhere, or any other date than the 1st/6th.

https://gamerant.com/starfield-play-early-how/quote:The official Starfield release date is September 6, but those that buy the Premium Edition, or the Premium Edition upgrade, will get to play September 1. However, it's been discovered through Microsoft Store listings that the game will technically be playable even earlier depending on where one lives. For example, those living in Central Time Zone should be able to play as early as August 31 at 7:00pm.

I wouldn't trust a single thing from Gamerant, it's a bottom-dwelling floor feeder of a content farm. There's no source in the article itself, but it's almost certainly something from reddit. It usually is.

I'm pretty sure Gamerant has used me as a source in at least one of their previous Bethesda-focused articles.

Both the Xbox app and the MS store on PC list the date 01/09 for the premium edition and no times are shown anywhere. The same caveat about actual play time being dependent on blah blah is present. I would take it with a pinch of salt, although funky unlock times via time zone shenanigans aren’t an unknown thing.

I'm pretty sure it's a global release time, so no time zone shenanigans can be had.

I'm gonna download this game and then remember how much I hate Bethesda Dialogue there has to be a better way to talk to characters than them looking dead-eyed into the camera while reciting paragraphs at you? I never hated talking to people in Mass Effect but maybe that's because your character wasn't mute

Fallout 4 had a talking PC and it sucked. Glad Todd changed his mind for Starfield.

Every digital character’s eyes look dead when you’re one foot away dead-center. This wasn’t a huge problem back when the character models were terrible, like in the oblivion days. But as faces start looking more realistic, that idiot camera zoom starts to look more and more uncanny. marshmallow creep posted:They're just copying outer worlds A true recipe for success.
