Not much interested me in this show. I am annoyed that everyone is praising it.
The more you post Rofif the more I feel sad for you. Poland must be a shit show to be that bitter in life.
It was a decent show but starfield did not need 45 min super loaded trailer
Starfield looks great.... just too big and too intimidating honestly. it should be a good thing but it is just intimidating

Imagine thinking that the technical issues Tears of the Kingdom had at launch are in any way comparable to the last decade of Bethesda software at launch.

It just seems like something you could literally spend months in. It is like the perfect game world for me since I've always been interested in space travel and things like that.
Mind blown. I wasn't expecting the level of depth that they showed off.
The variations in the structure of the cities and the environments. Really just too much to comment on.

No. Forspoken is a great game. I recommend it.
Doesn't change anything about this show

It's fine if you don't enjoy it. I honestly have a lot of games that I don't like that a lot of people enjoy. This game looks to be something a lot people will enjoy.

Come now, dont let yourself get fooled by hype or recency bias.
We already knew Starfield was coming this year and had significant potential. We already knew Forza Motorsport was coming this year. Beyond that, very little has changed from this showcase. Same old “coming soon”/“next year is our year!” rhetoric that always surrounds MS June showcases.
These two games are still the only two MS has the rest of this year unless you count ESO and FO76.

It has its ups and downs. But you can’t deny that view.

No wonder Microsoft pushed nearly every single player game to 2024. Who even dares to release close to Starfield now?

Genuinely considering pre-ordering the digital deluxe edition instead of just playing via Gamepass....

Bro I played Skyrim on the PS3. I know how bad it can be and how great it is despite that.

I liked every bethesda main game aside from fallout 4 which I think was terrible.
But oblivion?! man.... what a game. Morrowind ?! wow.
So I have some hopes

Starfield ( if not a cyberpunk style disaster) will outsell Spider-Man. Only ToTK will sell more.

You need to lay off whatever you're smoking.
Listen, Startfield looks great.... but it's a Bethesda game. They typically come out with a shitload of bugs. People were hyped for Fallout 76 before it came out. We all know how that turned out.
I'm sure this game will do fine, but it also wouldn't surprise me if it comes out like a buggy mess that will take years to fix.
Maybe the show wasn’t for you.
Neither Starfield is and that’s fine.
Everyone should find what appeases them.

I think it's unfair that everyone expected a lot from sony and the show underwhelmed everyone.
And nobody expected shit from xbox, so it was easier to impress.
In reality, I think both shows sucked. Starfield looks good

No it won’t. Not initially at least. It’ll sell more Game Pass subs.
Long term it will likely sell more but we’re talking 7-10 years down the line.

Starfield's presentation was clearly the highlight and the game's looking good. I just hope it will have an engaging main story, because somehow I haven't experienced that in any Bethesda RPG.
The rest of the showcase was passable. Why bother reminding people of Fable if you don't have an actual release date and actual gameplay to show? And if that doesn't matter then why not tease more of Indiana Jones and get on board of the current hype train?

Nah it's fine. It happens to me as well. Just don't take things personally. We've all had those moments

I'm so happy they actually delivered. Lots of great stuff on the horizon for Xbox & Game Pass. Starfield is going to dominate the latter half of the year and there's plenty to look forward to in 2024. They're finally getting that cadence of releases they've been lacking for the last gen and a half and I love the further emphasis on big Japanese games.
As long as there are no more major delays, the future is brighter than it's been in awhile.

Yeah i think you're are right. I mean Starfield will be huge on Steam, but Gamepass will effect its early numbers. Spiderman will sell more at launch. Long term though like you said, Starfeild will probably still be selling decently 10 years from now, just like Skyrim.

A variety of games and genres. That's all I wanted, and they delivered.

There was no game with higher expectations than Starfield. I don't know, I couldn't even tell you what people were expecting from Sony, as I'm not really into that scene.

And that's OK because...?
I can see why Bethesda doesn't have any motivation to improve when they have customers that will eat whatever turd they pinch out.

To be honest, I don’t think any level of copium will help fanboys deal with Starfield.
If you like video games, you’re going to have to play it. It’s a killer app and something that MS hasn’t had since original gears.
I’m honesty slightly shocked at how good it looks.

I think you underestimate the demand for engrossing games like this on PC. Like with Cyberpunk you could be looking at 6 or 7m on PC day one, if not more. We'll have to wait and see.

Outsell while being included on gamepass? Doubt
