Seems like the Holiday period would be better positioning, but maybe they have things coming in the back half of the year that we are unaware of. Front half would seem almost too busy with Starfield in the mix too.

Will Starfield Get Delayed?
- Thread starter In Cold Blood
- Start date
- Analysis Game Dev
We aren’t exactly seeing a flood of screens, videos and ramped up marketing for Final Fantasy XVI and Resident Evil 4 Remake. All coming out within the next 5 months.
Delayed, too?

Forza and Redfall?
Not to mention Wo Long and Atomic Heart, among other promising 3rd party Game Pass games.

Xbox needs anywhere between 6 months and 90 days to market Starfield. It's Bethesda so I tend to lean towards the middle but for sure more than 90 days. They won't announce the date at the end of this month. So the earliest it could come would be May. Then you have Forza or Redfall in May and you have a packed June with Diablo in what is essentially a partner game in the same genre as Starfield. July is too "vacation-ay" so the earliest I see Starfield coming is Aug and the latest would be very early December. Given the delay from last year, I really like Sept/Oct.

How can it be delayed with no release date?

Made a crappy phPBB forum once ... once.
Agree but think people are classing that presentation where MS said ‘first half of 23’ being that if it’s not out by end of June kind of thing.
They said it’d be out H1 2023. Any date after June 30th would be a delay.
They also reiterated the H1 timing in the Starfield support page.

MS said by June of 2023. They updated their support page to state by June of 2023. They have new Starfield promotions on the Xbox Series X boxes. The game was already delayed. MS had a lackluster 2022. Rumor says it debuts first commercials at Super Bowl next month. IMO, we should see it by June.
I am always wrong though, so don't listen to me.

Next Month, I would say

If only my penis was as big as my GamerScore!
September or November game is my thought.
For such a pessimistic view of xbox games, why do you care about anything else they have upcoming?

100% delayed to holiday 2023. Microsoft don't release big games outside the holidays.

It will be so funny when the game finally comes out and it turns out to be absolute garbage.
Fallout 4 was shit.
Fallout 76 was a dumpster fire.
Every time they re-release Skyrim (i.e. every 2 months) it is undeniably a worse version of what we had before because of crap like in-game mod store or VR version that has no place on VR because it sucks ass.
The list goes on.
Does anyone still believe that this company will deliver something worthwhile?

Bethesda's Maryland team has never made a bad singleplayer RPG. They've only ever made GOTY caliber hits. That trend will surely continue with Starfield. It's not even a question.

Having my outlook doesn’t directly correlate to me enjoying their portfolio of possibilities.
A few titles, I’m always interested in with what they currently have going on are: Forza, Halo, gears of war, hell blade, and Bethesda titles. Obsidian maybe too, but I feel they will take a long while to deliver something. The smaller title game they put out this last year really didn’t do it for me.
Plus, as a primary PC player first, Xbox game pass is an absolute win. I genuinely believe that game pass is the best value subscription I have other than Amazon prime.
Last year was frustrating, and this year, I’m just not holding my breath. Forza is the only title I have confidence in from their potential lineup for this year.

Yeah because the 3 companies all work exactly the same dont they
How is this a reasonable response to what I said?
YOU were the one claiming an AAA release would have a flood of media, constant adverts and deep dives 5 months to release. Is it your position that FFXVI and RE 4 Remake aren’t big games?

It should be obvious if you ever followed a Bethesda game in the past, especially given how much MS will be behind this trying to one up Sony. You obviously think it wont be delayed, and try to use companies who go very differently about their marketing as support for that view. Makes no sense at all to me though so I am ducking out of this convo pronto.

November 2023 ...almost positive since this is the time frame they originally wanted to release it and Bethesda usually releases games. They want that holiday money and MS wants this to be relatively polished (for a Bethesda game).

Probably. And as hyped as I am I don’t really care. Too much shot to play with too little time. I don’t really get impatient for games anymore and just go with the flow. Waste of time and energy getting hyped for games when there’s always something to play or something to do. Life is too short to be waiting on something to release.
And Starfield is easily my most anticipated game.

You are officially on crack....fallout 4 was great, nit as good as 3 but great. I wouldn't play a game that's shit for 120 hours. I know I have good taste in games...becuase I do.

My point is that companies normally set the release date for a game four to six months before it is released to gain preorders, hype etc.
With Starfield not being in the showcase that tells me that they will be doing something in the future to announce the release date. So I was getting at the fact that the further any announcement get pushed further back, that means they miss that time between announcement and release.
Could be wrong, but we will see.

I probably played it for twice as long but whenever I think back on that time or try to revisit the game, all I'm filled with is depressive thoughts and boredom.
Call me crazy but I don't think a game that I spent so much time with in the past should be evoking feelings like that. I think the only reason I played it for as long as I have is because I absolutely adored Fallout 3 and New Vegas (still do) and I was just starved for another game like that and as a result, I somehow fooled myself into thinking that I was having a good time.
When I think about Fallout 4 right now, I have nothing but negative things to say about it.

If a delay means we can avoid the usual Bugthesda then by all means delay this shit.
This is a thread about release date for Starfield…not about fantasizing about the game’s quality.
Feel free to open a new thread to discuss your unpopular opinion.

I don't think it will get delayed as Xbox needs this. They know fans were already mad disappointed when it got delayed once before. That being said I don't doubt it will be a bugthesda kinda game upon release.

The internal leak rumor is that Redfall will release May 2, 2023 and Starfield will get a June '23 release. Shortly after the rumor, a Starfield support page went live stating that the game will release in the first half of 2023.

I mean as far as FF16 is concerned we've seen what feels like 30 trailers already. At this point any more of that game and it might as well be a full walkthrough. Haven't paid any attention to the RE4 Remake to say anything about it.

Even better question is whether I'll be able to mod anime succubus girls with fat titties and huge dongs into the game.
