    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?
