Bethesda's new IP "Starfield" slowly surfaces

I think if they reveal it at E3 there is a good chance it'll come out in the fall. That's what happened with Fallout 4 after all, and we know that Todd Howard likes to keep the period between reveal and release as short as possible to keep the hype train chugging.

Exactly. I have to say I'm mildly optimistic about it. Which will probably lead to some severe disappointment later on. :D

I'm super stoked for it. :D

Here is a Reddit 'leak' about the game. Take it with a huge grain o' salt of course.

Interesting quotes:

- They want to get ahead of games like Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen
- There are 4 important planets in the game
- On the galaxy map, there is a section of the map called The Unknown Regions where there are endless planets that are generated you can explore
- You can establish colonies on an empty plot of land on any planet.

A space Elder Scrolls would be absolutely delightful.

I would even forgive them for the endless wait for Elder Scrolls 6 (come on it's been 7 years and counting since Skyrim).

Yeah but in the meantime we got Skyrim SE, Skyrim VR, Skyrim Switch...

It's been a while alright! :eek:

Didn't they specifically tell us that we shouldn't expect next elder scrolls before 2022? I think I remember something like that being said a year or two after Skyrim initial release (or maybe around TESO release).

They've said before that TES6 is a long way out, and that they're interested in doing more than just churning out Fallout and TES and Fallout and TES in perpetuity. I can't blame them. It must be tiring to keep doing the same IPs over and over. That said I do hope they stick with their strengths as a development studio (exploration, replayabliity, world building) no matter what Starfield winds up being.

They should stick to Elder Scrolls. They are very good at it. Stop trying to ruin Fallout any more than they already have, and leave new IPs to studios who know how to innovate :) Just do another Elder Scrolls. Everybody want it. We know it will most likely be good. So what's the deal?

That leak seems to be describing a single player kind of game as opposed to an mmo, correct?

Pretty sure that was Fallout running in the back. No video of the new game yet. It does look like Bethesda just make the same game with different skins. I have no problem with that for RPGs, because it's usually the story and characters that hook me, but, Bethesda aren't really known for that.

Yes, it is supposed to be a single player game, just like TES and Fallouts.
Though as for the leak itself, I don't think there is much to it. Instead of "leak", I would call it a "plausible guesswork"

I saw somewhere that Starfield was actually rumoured to be a mobile game. I hope that rumour isn't true, but it sounds too wierd so it probably isn't.
E3 this year is going to be amazing!

No more hype, no more reading on "what amazing content our new game will have" no nada. I`m still recovering my gaming self from ME Andromeda so I will watch this new Beth ip with stone cold professionalism - no emotions!
