FishMcCool posted:If modding works as usual, then 1000 planets is a hell of a canvas. Even presuming that for game engine and gameplay reasons, those 'planets' are probably bite-size scaled small rocks. The promise of 1000 planets sounds exactly as exciting as the 1000 "unique" office buildings in fallout 4, or the 1000 "unique" burial mounds in Skyrim or any other radiant quest filler junk, i.e. I'm getting sick just reading about it and it actively makes me want to play at the game less.

Orcs and Ostriches posted:I thought Fallout 3 felt like floaty garbage, just like Oblivion, but I really liked Fallout 4 in the combat department. Just clicked for me, but I know a lot of people weren't too into Fallout 4's combat. Everybody mocks TES because you always end up being a stealth archer, but at least you can become a stealth archer, that's something (and I for one never played an archer character). Meanwhile in Bethesda Fallouts where all you have is a gun and everybody else also has a gun, you are doomed to be a generic shootyman in a below average shootyman game

My main concern is that there is going to be even more of a focus on those "core loops" (i.e. shooting and looting things for no particular reason) than in FO4 when even in FO4 where this trend was very evident I spent like 75% of my time trying to escape away from mindless gameplay loops and find some RPG content.

I don't see how having these fake perks is better or more user friendly than old fashioned numerical skills that go from 1 to 100. Already in fallout 4 it was infinitely less convenient to find the totally-not-a-skill "perks" than in older games because everything was a loving perk haphazardly plastered on an arbitrary space on a busy tableau.

7c Nickel posted:In no sense is it the better option unless you are unhappy when people enjoy things you don't. No one is going to force you to land and fully explore every random iceball in the game. So I guess every game would be made better by including endless expanse of empty terrain to "explore" outside the actual level areas? They could have spent the man-hours devoted to coming up with the proc-gen system and presumably curating and testing the worlds to making more, better hand crafted environment. steinrokkan fucked around with this message at 18:32 on Jun 24, 2022 |

I think it's incredible there are people who believe Bethesda will finally be able to create compelling environments by investing LESS effort into them. Also that somebody would voluntarily do any building in a Bethesda engine.

So now I'm wondering, how will Starfield top this in terms of physical rewards? A space rock necklace that's somehow a slug of pure plutonium

dr_rat posted:So a lot of Witcher was automated like Bethesda games, but seems the system they used allowed more tailoring, there's an article about it here: https://www.pcgamer.com/most-of-the-witcher-3s-dialogue-scenes-was-animated-by-an-algorithm/ Where is in creation kit, seems you set an animation for the character, than you set an emotion and strength of that emotion (between 1-100) for each line of dialogue. It really helped that with Witcher every character was fully animated, with gesturing, shifting weight, twitching etc, even if it was all just blending stock animations. A character with the world's best facial animations will still look like a creepy robot if they otherwise stand perfectly still and only track the pc with their head.

Á propos, I really haven't been following games for the past few years, my current GPU is a 1070 and i remember back then the main controversy was "will my card be able to handle 4k???" It's kinda insane that 6 years later andwith GPUs costing more than the average home, the question even for enthusiast models is still "will it handle 4k???"

I think keeping the engine on life support makes sense when you consider stuff like mod support. The scene would probably be far less robust if they just rolled out a whole new suite of tools one day. Assuming they were able to rebuild everything in a new engine to begin with.

Floor is lava posted:This is definitely a stretch here but they said it was heavily inspired by SunDog: Frozen Legacy wherein the game starts with player collecting parts to get the ship functional. Indeed, my sources are actually saying that the whole game is secretly a remake of SunDog, but I'm not supposed to talk about it.
