Also very happy to see that it's story heavy but with plenty to do on your own, off the side - my favorite kind of RPG and right in Bethesda's wheelhouse - and that they're sticking to single player.
Couldn't be happier with this reveal.

480M dollars raised and they have a tech demo. Scam company and dumb gaming hopefuls. When the cash runs dry they will say bye bye.
Brenics ~ Just to point out I do believe Chris Roberts is going down as the man who cheated backers and took down crowdfunding for gaming.
people will be dissecting footage for a while figuring out whats what, i'm most concerned for mods, mod tools, and cash shop/ paid mod situation also the landing animations and effects look super bad!

Interesting, enthusing trailer, though I could have done without Todd Howard's bloviating blather. Though he has gotten lots of skill levels in blather, so I guess he might be Bethesda's best bloviator.
Could be pretty dang exciting.
If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.
These are games, not tech showcases. They don't need to have everything as long as what's there is fun.
With that said, let's hope Starfield will be fun. Nowadays all larger game studios can push out stuff that looks awesome in gameplay reveals, but too often it falls flat on its face when you're actually supposed to play it.
But this is targeted for 2023 not 2030 and will be on the Gamepass Day 1....
What's not to like?
And....I saw combat shotguns.... happiness...
Just tell me where to throw my money at.

Definitely not the kind of gameplay I will enjoy. I'm sure people who enjoy repetitive, meaningless exploratory grinding will like it, though.
...now it only needs to be moddable and for someone to make a VR mod like for skyrim!

How do you know it doesn't have a compelling story? All they showed was gameplay. I think it will be like a Bethesda game but with better graphics and expanded worlds and options. And probably all the bugs.

Been a fanboi for a while.
Have not yet though. Maybe there is hope?
Nah there is really none for me or the human race.

- The pathing of the robot in the beginning. Looks extremely stiff. It looks high-panted and it's hard to take it seriously
- No walking sound
- The mining part made me fall asleep. It is literally NMS mining, but uglier and worse
- NPC facial animations looks outdated
- The worst part: Gunplay looks horrible and the weapons uninspiring
- Space part doesn't seem innovative. We've seen the same thing in many games
- Doesn't seem to be opening up for a multiplayer experience? So exploring these 1000 planets is definitely going to feel lifeless. Who knows, surprise me
- I have seen plenty of praise for the character customisation, but if that is what a studio like Bethesda has come up with during all these years? Come on... It's basically The Sims 2
The things I think that might intrigue me are:
- The ship building. But I fear it's going to fall fairly flat and in all honesty; in what way does it matter in a singleplayer game? Just like in Subnautica, I see myself farming for the bare minimum just to go through the story. It could be that I'm not the target audience, but as long as I can't show off my ship to friends, I see no point in farming in yet another game where I'm the only one that gets to see it. NMS has multiplayer as an option. So should probably this game
- Story and Dialogue. This has always been the key element of Bethesda games so if they make a compelling story with significant decision making, then it might do good
Again, glad the postponed the release as there is a lot of stuff that needs to be solved. Also, October-December looks extremely busy on the release front, so it could potentially have fallen between the chairs.
I'm certain I'll still be buying and playing the game when it comes out, but I'm not optimistic that Bethesda has gotten over their issues with technical debt and lagging behind in engine performance/capability.
