The hype around Starfield is massive, and growing.

The hate on this game is weird just because it is an Xbox exclusive. Series S is dirt cheap. Buy one and play the game instead of hating on it for ridiculous reasons like a child.

Tell that to the people here who have been shitting on Final Fantasy XVI non-stop.

There can be peace in this world, but BOTH SIDES have to want it.

Dude, what? Your basically saying tit for tat is OK?

Also, FFXVI took a serious detour from previous entries and people took issue with that. You can't complain about that. It also wasn't a good game so, deal with it lol

Stop derailing the thread with whataboutism

not sure about ‘both sides’ since the vast majority of posts in this forum complaining about FFXVI have been from owners locked in the ‘turn based vs action’ debate.

I suspect we’ll have our fair share of BG3 vs Starfield debates from folks that would have played them both

gamers lol...too much hype, not enough hype
hype is in your heart, you nurture it like a seedling, you water it, help it grow untill it blocks out all the sunlight, drags you into the basement and kills you with your own expectations

One of the greatest posts of all time. It cries truth from the sap!

These some opinions starting to leak from the Xbox "influencers" who are currently playing the game and they are saying the game is amazing.

I think this was part of the reasoning that MS gave out codes to some of these people. They were allowed to say they were playing the game, when normally you arnt allowed to tell anyone you are playing an unreleased game for review purposes.
I reckon MS know the game is legit good, and they know these guys will start to blab about it, which is going to further promote the game.

The last game I can remember that had this type of hype leading up to its release was Red Dead Redemption 2.
It's trending on twitter every day. Forums and social media are all about Starfield, and MS hasn't advertised jack shit for it.

I haven't really been a Bethesda guy, but I am a space guy, so this game is for me, but was the hype like this when the last Elder Scrolls came out?

Like the hype for Fallout 76?

I'll add that each generation gets the games it deserves.

The Doom reboot and then Doom Eternal defined the previous gen for me. So far, I wasn't so impressed with this gen. But with MSFS, It takes two, and now BG3, I've had to admit I might change my mind. And I'm hoping to change it more with Starfield. We'll see.

Is that hype? It's as much hype as I do.

Is the hype so big? I don't think it's comparable to Skyrim or Fallout levels, at all. Maybe because I'm out of the loop. Anyway, pre-installed on Series X on Gamepass and have the premium content ordered as well. Let's see. I hope I'm done with BG3 before this comes out, but I doubt it. Also have Armored Core coming in. This has been a great year so far.

We really should stop caring, maybe just play and enjoy the game cause sales will be diluted by GP.

Yeesh. This is the person whose tweet was used to spawn a multi-page thread here about ‘paid fans’?

Game developer turned studio founder turned internet clout grifter. Quite the career path indeed.

I’m actually quite hyped for the upcoming FS2024. All the improvements seem really promising indeed.
