Starfield still going to use Gamebryo, right? Can't wait for them space vistas in glorious 2002-era Morrowind graphics.
They've used Skyrim profits to hire a bunch of engineers to work on the engine.

I'm optimistic it'll look pretty good.
People are asking for a source.

Nine out of the twenty listings are for the Programming division, hinting the studio is aiming at shoring up its core infrastructure.

Surprise Bethesda Softworks Digital Showcase on July 11th?

Insider here

Pete Hines used very specific wording in his "No showcase in June" tweet to leave open the possibility for a future showcase as, at that time, higher ups havent decided yet if they truly were going to put together a digital showcase or not this year

Apparently the plan was to actually not have one at all and to just drop one announcement after another, with no mention of Starfield, until Zenimax stepped in and put pressure on Bethesda to actually throw together a showcase

Everyone is scrambling now and rushing to get this showcase together

Lots of overtime and extra pay for in office work

This is the current plan right now although some things may get taken out or added in. Additional note is the recent Starfield website "glitch" wasn't a glitch. Starfield is complete and going through content overhaul and extra world building, similar to the Cyberpunk delay. Starfield is set for 2021 so please be patient. You will be surprised, although the game may not be for everyone. There will also be online social components and a mobile Starfield app for use alongside playing the main game. Todd didn't want it but Zenimax did.

There you go. Believe it or don't. I just wanted to drop this information so I could follow up with it by saying employees right now within Bethesda are being treated like shit over this sudden change in showcase plans and we are stressing. It is clear higher ups are not happy about being forced into throwing a showcase together last minute. I don't blame them. I just hope you all like what you see. We could use the good vibes here

Time will tell... But wait, an announcement on a Saturday?

There's that G gauge on the UI so I guess there would be a sizable amount of floating around in low gravity environment. Animation is probably gonna be quite janky knowing Bethesda, though it would be fun if we could get acrobatics back.

Could it be? More hardcore low-gravity space gameplay than Prey as Fallout 4 was allowed to have more hardcore hardcore mode than Prey's?

What does Mike Futter have to do with anything? Is he a marketing guy for Bethesda?
