I'm honestly excited despite knowing that it'll be busted on release (as is always the case with Bethesda). A game of this scale just won't be very stable or balanced. I'm calling it now, there will be big technical issues.

With Bethesda making an entire galaxy for this game the next elder scrolls has got to come out alot quicker right? Going back to a single province(or maybe even a few) has to be a walk in the park by comparison Huff's more copium
I don't get the hype... I watched the gameplay trailer and it looks intensely underwhelming. Ignoring the sales jabber, it looks like a big, empty world which, at its best, is a knockoff of No Man's Sky. They barely show any shots that aren't the PC staring at a big, uninspired vista or having bland combat in bland sets. Considering how Bethesda releases go, how AAA releaes in general go, and the fact that trailers like these are supposed to OVERsell the game, I'm not really all that interested right now.
Yeah I'm not massively excited by it, it just looks.....bland. Bethesda really excel at world building in general and this just looks very generic. I hope to be wrong but I doubt I will be.
It's pulling the same strings in people that star citizen has for a decade now. I personally also really want a good immersive space sim game - I don't know if bethesda can deliver it, I am pretty sure I will be disappointed with how shallow it is since they tend to cater to the masses - but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited to see how it turns out, if they maybe manage to pull it off this time.
After all, what else is there to look forward to in this genre?
I hear Frontier is figuring new ways to make you grind for materials in Elite Dangerous...

Well i have been on the ps5 train but unless they drop somethin like bloodborne 2 i might be leaning xbox
Tbh i feel very excited, although recent events taught me to be very cautious with new game releases, so i'm going to keep my expectations low
Great trailer! Reminds me how I wish No Man's Sky could keep its hooks in me for longer. I like so much about it, but think I need a little more of a thread to pull me along to stick with it.
Skyrim in space...
I'll wait for tests. I'll also need a new gaming rig. My old one won't be able to run this game.
Skyrim in space sounds pretty good to me. No one including Bethesda had released anything close to competition towards Skyrim in the last decade+. So I'm all on board if they can pull it off.
