Surprised no one posted this yet, but here's the trailer for Starfield that was released today or "leaked" if you want to believe that.
Agree but Tod had to show something after all the various leaks this year. At least's it's more then that 2019 trailer. Frankly I'm surprised they showed in-game footage.I wish the trailer had actually shown something about the actual game besides hints and suggestions Ah well more to come I am sure.

Indeed, never thought about that. I tried hard to remember a game contradicting your statement, but failed.The implications of this trailer are interesting and potentially exciting. It seems that this game will be about the beginning of humankind's exploration of the stars and the "key to unlocking everything" referenced here is the key to interstellar space travel. As a member of Constellation, you're going to be one of those using that key to venture out much further than humanity previously has.
If true, that would mean that instead of plopping us into an established universe where offscreen actors have already done most of the discovering, which is how it works in pretty much every other RPG, as players WE will be doing the discovering, which sounds cool and novel to me.
I don't hope so. Movies like Star Trek or games like Mass effect used humanoids only because humans in rubber masks are cheaper than modeling real aliens. There is no scientific reason to assume that in the real universe humanoid aliens exist.I hope some of the sentient aliens will be humanoids.
Yep, you're obviously right.There is no scientific reason to assume that in the real universe humanoid aliens exist.
They could also achieve this by meeting other (groups of) human explorers.Yep, you're obviously right.
But I like to interact with humanoids. So for the enjoyment of the game I like to suspend my disbelieve especially here if there is some more or less good explanation in lore. And tbh even if there is none.

I agree this might get interesting. However I would miss meeting humans when exploring. I hope some of the sentient aliens will be humanoids.
Starflight?
Granted, the Old Empire had been a presence long in the past, but as pretty much all its knowledge had subsequently been lost, Starflight very much transmitted that sensation of venturing out into the unknown galaxy.
Right. But I also like civilization, cities. Yeah, I'm nitpicky.They could also achieve this by meeting other (groups of) human explorers.
Never played that one...Starflight?
Yep, that was what I was thinking of. It din't really feel like the Pathfinder was the first one.Thank you for this, truly. I posted a similar comment on Rock, Paper, Shotgun and had people telling me that Mass Effect: Andromeda already did this…. despite literally thousands of people from your galaxy getting there before your character.
Why not both?I don't think I'd miss meeting humans at all. I wouldn't want there to not be sentient species I could interact with, but I would love for those species to be truly alien and not something I'm already familiar with.
At E3 2021, Bethesda presented the first trailer for its new space IP, Starfield. And, according to Bethesda's Senior Lighting Artist, Keith Beltramini, that trailer was entirely in-game without any cinematic tools.
