Xbox has a new Developer Direct showcase later this month, but Starfield will skip the show in favor of its own dedicated presentation.

The new showcase is a collaboration between Xbox and Bethesda, so you'd be forgiven for assuming Starfield would be present. However, Bethesda has announced that won't be the case, the new RPG won't be there, in order to "dedicate the proper amount of time for a deep dive into Starfield."


quote:

When the new Xbox Developer Direct showcase originally leaked online earlier this month, it was reported that Starfield might skip the presentation entirely. This understandable had fans worried, as they suspected another delay for the high-profile RPG could be on the cards.


quote:

Right now, we don't actually know when this follow-up showcase dedicated to Starfield will be taking place. Considering the Xbox Developer Direct isn't taking place until January 25 near the end of this month though, it's more likely than not that the Starfield broadcast will take place next month in February, or even later into the year.



The Starfield support page became live not too long ago and confirmed that Starfield will be released the first half of 2023. Gardoki (RIP) said he heard play testers were really liking what what they had so far.

The gameplay they've shown so far as been roughhhhhhh. I'm not nearly as excited for it anymore. Hopefully looks better in this showcase

I like plenty of things. Starfield will probably be a fine game, but the combat in that first reveal looked absolutely horrible. Yall like to act like everything is beyond any sort of criticism though

I used to be a pretty big Bethesda fan, but lately, I’m just not as into their stuff.

I’m sure it will be a fine game, but the initial reveal didn’t appeal to me. Looks sort of like a marriage of no man’s sky and Bethesda design tropes.

I hope there are some interesting questlines and factions to get involved with, because the idea of scouring the galaxy for resources on procedurally generated worlds doesn’t grab me.

Bethesda Softworks Starfield Playlists

There have been a lot of developer commentaries and short videos they have put out since that initial review.

the movement is clunky af

enemies are spongey and have 0 reaction to getting shot (that first guy standing there like a sandbag as you fill them with lead)

the guns have no punch (especially the shotgun lol, go to 4:52 in your video). some really poor animations



I'm also replaying Titanfall 2 right now which has some of the best movement and shooter combat of all time, so I'm sure that's making everything look worse

yeah, that's not fair


Bethesda created their own FPS shooting mechanics with FO3, which were pretty crap, but made great strides with 4. I don't want the shooting to be piss poor but unless it's a disaster it won't deter me with that style of RPG. Again, I think what we saw was unpolished and I imagine it's in a much better place now. We'll see.
