I'll believe you when you show Series S gameplay.

Todd Howard says he's mostly playing Starfield on an Xbox Series S
Yeah, PR BS right there.

"Todd Howard says he's mostly playing Starfield on an Xbox Series S when he's playing at home (his kids hog the Series X). Says it's running nicely."
I don't understand these quotes. Todd, or anyone whose invested in making the game, isn't going to say - Yea, Stephen. It's a real downer. My kids are hogging the Series X and I've been forced to try and get by on the Series S where it's significantly downgraded from what I'm used to.
I'm sure it's still being optimized. I guess it's taking the word of someone who wouldn't actual say how it's running. There's been a few times where (marketing person) states they are playing on (which ever console) and its running great. Then it comes out and it's completely broken. Cyberpunk on Ps4/One come to mind

I mean the guy is PC fanatics. This is Phil praising xss.

The CPU isn't bad in the series S and with much lower resolution (it's also not pushing things graphically, or with particles etc) then maybe the Series S will end up being more consistent in terms of performance.

At 480p, maybe

I wouldn't expect Todd, or anyone else on the Team to do anything less. It's like getting a product review from a sponsored infomercial. And to be fair, I wouldn't expect a marketing Team or product leader from any company to do anything else. That's why I don't get the point of the statement

I think I would be ok with that. I have been playing a lot of ToTk on my 65" and it is absolutely serviceable.

They announced the new xss black 1tb storage. So having starfield promote that system is a huge bonus for them.

30fps target should give them some leeway.

I understand that much. I'm getting at that no one would say the true state of how it ran and would leave the user to figure it out for themselves after launch. The point of "it runs great" is a pointless tweet since you'll never really know until you have it.
Also, I'd love to see a Starfield special edition console like Halo. (I love the space/NASA Theme)

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
If it runs nice on Series S, only bodes well for SX.
cool.
cool.

Probably 900p-1080p at 30 fps

Well they are a first party studio so I'm not surprised.

I'm sure, it just works. At least, to Todd Howard's definition of "works".

To be fair they said 'surprisingly well'. After seeing how hard it is to run on PC, 10fps could be seen as surprisingly well for PS4 and XB1 lol

You should have put all this kinda news in one thread though...
Anyways, this is non-news.. what was he gonna say? The game doesn't run well on the series S?

Yep. When they start using incredibly confident words like nicely and well, we know what that means.
