Its an outdated design with zero world building, amateur writing, reused animations from 2006 and quest design that is so dull and simple, that it feels to me that Bethesda is taking their playerbase for a bunch of low IQ gamers. The 1000+ planets was their main selling point, but (as everyone expected) all these planets ended up extremely generic with no quests or characters on them. You're just walking around, scanning and collecting rocks. What the **** kind of gameplay is that? Were they planning to steal Ubisoft's dull as hell formula? This game is so incredibly dull, i don't know how it took them this long to release it. And imagine if they didn't have a live service game to milk their fans (ESO). What then? I think its clear to us all that they lost the talent of making good games (many would say that they never had it to begin with, and i would disagree), so would they be in the same situation Bioware is in?
Bethesda is in deep trouble, but at least i respect Todd for making a honest conference, and let us know what went wrong, and what were their real plans with the game.
What the hell did I just kind of watch? Holy hell, just jumping around and trying to be funny and trying to tie in other Bestassed Bethesda games to prove his point about how outdated their games are?
If you needed that poorly made video to tell you that Starport or....what is this game called....
Starfield. If you needed that poorly made video to tell you that Starfield is outdated or overrated, you've got way, way, way too much time on your hands. Either play the game or don't. If checking out legitimate reviews that show good gameplay footage or reading up on it helps you decide if the game is for you, then do that....but don't watch this drivel.
I thought this was going to be an informative video, but it was like trying to watch 100 tiktok videos smashed together (holy crap, is this what kids these days think is good? Damn, I'm getting old), jumping from one thought to the next with no real coherent value to it. Eh....glad I only skimmed through the video and wasted about 4 minutes of my time. I'd rather play Starforce...damn it. I'd rather play Starfield over having to waste anymore time on this video.
Please tell me you didn't actually watch its entirety, did you?

Thank you for suffering through this for us. I'm afraid to click a negative video on Youtube as I fear I will get sucked into the whirlpool of Youtube negativity where all reasons for living ceases to exist.
Bethesda has almost entirely never been good.
It just look them about 15 years to realize it.
Ghost hyped this as well (danger sign)

They don't need to be good if they're fun. But I simply see no reason for me to play their latest stuff. All of the fun is gone. Now it's just super weird looking NPCs in soulless worlds.
Why didn't people make such videos for Fallout 4? Probably the most soulless Fallout ever (not counting 76). Maybe they did and I missed it.
They were still in the hoonymoon phase back then. Now they're in the spouse that betrayed them (with Microsoft) phase.
Starfield is a decent enough entertaining game, it is not the second coming, world building could 100% do with fleshing out and mods/community will undoubtedly help the game over time, One thing I think is clear though and that is Bethesda's strongest IP remains Elder scrolls.
So much vitriol for a game nobody wants to play.. For a game that sucks so bad, it sure does get talked about alot.
It's a weak game. Bethesda hasn't moved from 2011.
Worse, they havent really moved on from 2002-2003.
In many ways they have even regressed. Remember how in Morrowind ANYONE could die? Or how in Fallout 3, you had far more weapon variety than Pistol, Shotgun, Rifle and Assault Rifle? Not even getting into the weapon variety New Vegas had (since that was Obsidian).
@Litchie: Fallout 4 wasn't 'exclusive' to Xbox so nobody gave a **** and no one but the most hardcore Bethesda fans hyped it. Meh game with meh hype.
But Starfield had different hype, same result/quality. and obviously different reactions due to the insufferable hype we had to endure (and laugh at) for months.
I can't wait for Assassin's Creed 2024 to be the most hyped game of the year if MS buys Ubisoft.
@hardwenzen:
So, how many posts are you going to make in this thread?
Here, I know you're out.
Many. Just like with Infinite, i want you, the lems, to get it through your thick skulls that games made for gamepass in mind is BAD.
@Litchie: Fallout 4 wasn't 'exclusive' to Xbox so nobody gave a ****
Fanboy nonsense.
@Litchie: and no one but the most hardcore Bethesda fans hyped it. Meh game with meh hype.
I was under the impression that the game was hyped, liked and sold really well. I remember being one of the few here who had anything negative to say about it when it came out.
But Starfield had different hype, same result/quality. and obviously different reactions due to the insufferable hype we had to endure (and laugh at) for months.
I never understood the Starfield hype. All we had to go on was really bad looking footage, and the fact that Fallout 76 was their last big game. People were treating Starfield as the next Skyrim. No idea why. Just blind wishing, I guess.
Clickbait thread title with a clickbait youtube video and zero discussion.
Wow what an amazing thread (shit) and it's attracting all the usual suspects I see (shitflies)
Uh oh, someone is butt hurt!
I'm confused as to what this thread is asking or presenting? Are we reacting to a YouTuber? Yuk.... There is nothing new being asked or presented in this thread. Please keep activity in the main Starfield thread that is still widely used on the main page.
