PSA: Have you remembered not to overhype yourself?
(lemmy.world)
Reminding yourself of Fallout 76 should help cool down the hype.
@Hanabie @ArchmageAzor
Fallout 76 was intended to be a MMORPG, i guess, due to a MMO hype. But Bethesda has a lot of single player RPG fans because Bethesda published sccessful series like TES and FO. They tried to throw single players into a MMO game, it was a bad idea but i believe that's a lesson learned.
We'll see how Starfield turns out. I'll wait and see what this game looks like and make a decision after watching YouTube videos and reading reviews. Bethesda isn't an automatic buy anymore for me.
And 76 wasn't all that bad. There were a lot of really great elements in it that, had 76 instead been a single player game (or at the most a co-op game), it'd have been much more well received.
The world was fun, the new monsters are cool, the combat was basically the same as FO4.
It's not Fallout so I'm not hyped at all. Just curious if it will be good.
I have been un-hyping myself ever since that Xbox Showcase. The things Todd said gave me awful Sean Murray/NMS flashbacks
It's not just one world, it's over a thousand worlds
That isn't just a backdrop, that moon is actually there orbiting the planet. Yes you can visit it too

I expect Starfield will be beautiful and have tons to do and see, but I'm greatly tempering my seamless exploration expectations. I'm sure the planet cells will be large and many pretty neat but you aren't going to hop into your ship, point at a moon, and blast off. There will be navigation and loading screens.
Iโm expecting the usual Bethesda bugfest for the first month or two, but the game itself seems like it should be pretty entertaining and immersive. My plan is to see what the Steam reviews look like in a month or two.
