Finally, I can be an attack helicopter!

A bunch of new pieces of concept art.

Say what you want..
He Will lie to you...
He Will trick you...
Buy every single time you will wish for more.
That Is the handsome dilemma that Todd is

all these cool concept arts but all Bethesda games had cool concept art. At the end of the day you know its going to be fighting bandits in desolate space outpost planet. Fighting bandits in space junkyard planet. Fighting bandits in mass effect citadel council planet and fighting bandits in cyber punk neon lights planet.

A bunch of new pieces of concept art.

Reminds me of Syd Mead's concept art in subject matter and composition, though the style is quite different:

 

[NJClaw]

only game that matters is STARFIELD

Based rusty eagerly waiting for a tranny game

Very progressive of you, rusty

My argument is that I will not partake in your religious practices, and I will not purchase products that promote said religious practices. You can call your religious beliefs scientific all you want, but that does not make it true.

Yes, it does affect me. For the same reason I know you wouldn't purchase a game that required you to recite the Lord's Prayer before you could play.

Also, will you ask for a refund for Baldur's Gate 3 since it allows you to make male characters with female voices and vice-versa?

pronouns separate from biological sex is not the same as the game just putting all the voice choices in the same list

Oh no, rusty... I'm sad to hear you won't buy this game. Or are you going to finally say that pronouns separate from biological sex is not the same thing as pronouns separate from biological sex?

Looks like The Citadel from Mass Effect 1.

 

[Hellion]

All of these concept art pieces look like either "generic sci-fi" or "image that reminds me of X game that already exists". We've yet to see something unique that will set the game apart in terms of artistic style and atmosphere.

You all gonna buy it and you know it.

 

[Child of Malkav]

You all gonna buy it and you know it.

You don't have to buy a game in order to play it.

 

[Reinhardt]

Mods will fix it.

 

[Salvo]

You all gonna buy it and you know it.

I've yet to buy Skyrim

 

[Child of Malkav]

Mods will fix it.

Bless them. They at least make these games tolerable.

 

[Gradenmayer]

Why would they fucking record for each pronoun, if everyone can just adress hero with 'you' or by name and avoid the issue altogether, while still cashing in woke points. Waste of money.

Edit: Wait, you would have to do that anyway for female and male heroes. Todd is a genius, he sold the existing feature as a new one.

 

[Peachcurl]

And it will still sell like crazy.

Toddholm syndrome.

 

[Kem0sabe]

And it will still sell like crazy.

Toddholm syndrome.

Like it or not, they and Cdprojekt are the only two western AAA rpg developers. The scarcity of offers in that market will lead to high demand no matter the quality of the product.

 

[Doma]

You all gonna buy it and you know it.

Gamepass will do

 

[samoilaaa]

when a game points out stuff like this reminds me when cdpr pointed out that they have sex scenes and penis size slider , when a company is focusing/wasting resources on stuff like that instead of AI , gameplay , level design and story you know that it will be crap just like CP2077

todd did a Q&A on reddit + a long interview with ign and no word on improving what skyrim/fallout 4 did wrong

The 10 minutes of music they gave us yesterday is pretty nice. Inon Zur is a competent composer and he fits Starfield nicely but I'd prefer the TESO composer takes over for TES6 since Jeremy Soule is "cancelled". Had a feeling even without those allegations he was fucked because of his behavior on Kickstarter.

 

[Wunderbar]

sounds generic.

 

[Ulysa]

Legend of the galactic heroes anime? Haha who am I kidding.

 

[Bloodeyes]

I'm very cynical these days. I think they probably only started developing this thing a month or two ago and all that really exists is concept art. I think it's going to be an absolute dumpster fire on release on par with Fallout 76 and Cyberpunk. I also think Elderscrolls 6 is not in development and may never be. For whatever reason Bethesda don't seem motivated to develop games any more. They must make more money from other things.
