Just remembered there's another spaceship game with "Star" in the title still in development. I wonder if they know, oh god that would be so embarrassing...

"Development" might be stretching the definition here.

They're sacking QA people so they must be nearly finished.

They should be worried, Star Mars looks to bring a lot of what the :nws: modding community has been clamoring for, and it's coming out at the same time.

Yeah but there is Skyrim, Skyrim Special Edition, and Skyrim VR. I also don't REALLY know how to read this:

We are absolutely spoiled for excellent games this year, dang. Both BG3 and Armored Core rule.



I played Skyrim SE last night so I am probably in your screenshot! Gotta keep those numbers up.

You sure about that? I think all Beth games since FNV have been Steamworks (until 76).

Yeah, my thoughts exactly! Retail PC copies of FNV, Skyrim and FO4 were all Steam keys. A far better fate than Fallout 3's cursed GFWL integration :v:

I saw a bunch of CPU+Starfield combo bundles. I'm rocking an AMD 3700x CPU and a 3070 Nvidia GPU. Does anyone know of any AM5 CPU Bundles that are good to get?

If you're near a Microcenter, I think this is a decent deal.

But double check in the PC Building thread. I'm not entirely up to date on current pricing.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

Why would they disrupt the pyramid scheme they've got going on by doing something like launching their game?

But no it is kinda funny that Starfield is basically going to launch with all the content Roberts promised back in 2012. Just as a singleplayer game in Gamebryo.

Okay, question: I bought a Steam key from Fanatical for the Premium Edition.

It says "Starfield Premium Edition" on their website where the key is listed, and when I activated it on Steam the pop-up said "Starfield: Digital Premium Edition" but the game shows in my library as just "Starfield" and lists the unlock date as September 6th.

Can anyone else who bought the preem version tell me if that's how it looks for them as well?

Edit: Ah NVM, it shows up as the Premium Edition in my activation history as well; I guess it must be for real.

Says the same here, but when I add the premium edition to my shopping cart, it tells me I own it.

They're not listing the EA date as release date, no matter the edition.

My preload download size was claimed at ~118gb, but browsing to local files for Starfield shows an empty folder so I assume it's in some relatively hidden folder until it's unpacked.

lemme run WinDirStat real quick

Looks like my "depotcache" folder in steamapps is 86.4gb so that's probably where it's being stored as 80ish 1gb files
