Sekenr posted:IMO its stupid. We somehow managed to interstellar travel but loving energonium firing double barrel shotgun you have to bend open and breech load 2 tachyon shells at a time because we just can't figure out any other way. It's a super reliable action. Also, as pointed out, they are in use today even after a hundred years of semiautomatic and pump-action shotguns.

Funky See Funky Do posted:I guess I don't know what I want them to do. I can't help but note that it looks like one of the most safe and uninspired games ever made. I feel like I already know exactly what happens and that I've played it before. I know exactly what you mean, which is one of the main selling points to me. I like their recipe and some tweaks here and there (Skyrim's leveling vs. Oblivion's, changes from FO3 to FO4) are enough. Bethesda does not need to be innovative or original. There are others to fill that role.

I've read about Todd being a monster of some repute, but looking at how little gamers/nerds need to get riled up (gender, skin colour, removal of swastikas) and claim this or that is ruined, I don't really care. Though I haven't really paid much attention to what the man has said over the years. I like the games he directs. Has Bethesda been accused of crunch or Activision-like behaviour? I've not come across any, which might just as well be my own fault.

I said come in! posted:Bestheda claims that Starfield has 30% more handcrafted content compared to their next largest game, Fallout 4. So outside of that content, the world of Starfield is likely to be pretty boring and fixed with randomly generated missions. Much of Fallout 4's map was a desolate wilderness, so maybe it'll work out.

I've been spending a lot of time with Sim Settlements 2 lately, it's intetesting how well they've applied FO4's engine. It's prone to scripts breaking, but building up the HQ (which requires a network of developed settlements) works nicely. Got a whole lot of VA too. Mayne too much. Anywho, hoping that someone at Bethesda has been taking notes.

If the hyperactive turbostrafing enemies have been mildly reined in, I'll be happy. Otherwise I expect it to feel like a Bethesda game. I can't see them deviating from the formula.

Seems legit. Comments agree with me. I'll probably have to resub to GPU for Starfield, though the five-day headstart feels uncomfortably tempting.

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.

Combat Pretzel posted:AFAIK this was already known. Some hopefuls still held out for a different outcome. There's a mod for FO4 that adds DLSS support, but when I tried it, it scaled everything including UI, and I think some buttons were placed off due to lower internal resolution.

I'm not sure debating flight model realism/verisimilitude has much to do with Starfield. Bethesda's simulationism traditionally begins and ends with the physics engine...

I really like how you can fast travel anywhere. Respecting my time. What I don't like as much are the 3-5 POIs spawning wherever I land. Makes it seem perhaps a tad too themeparkey, could've added probes and scanning!

I've been hacking away at this for a while and indeed, the Constellation thing starts way too early. Getting a ship immediately is fine, but the Big Plot could've been left to be available a little later, until the player has hosed around a bit. Anyway, game is pleasantly BGS. I really like the procgen landscapes I've come across, so far. Could've been a little less generous with the 5+ POIs around every landing site, though.

Khanstant posted:Game also needs a radio and some music for when they ask you to run 1200 m to some location. Yeah, they plonk a Skyrim-sized procgen map with a bunch of POIs wherever you land (I do like the procgen algorithm a lot, though), but then make the running around a little bit too much of a chore (although after a planet is surveyed, there isn't much point in landing there beyond doing some resource harvesting). Maybe they could've leaned a little less on the open world part of BGS design philosophy.
