is just an insane machine – they’ve done a great job and we’ve had great success on PlayStation,” he said.The sci-fi title is coming to Xbox Series X/S, PC and Game Pass in November
“We were traditionally a PC developer in the beginning. We transitioned to Xbox [and it] became our lead platform, like Morrowind’s basically exclusive to Xbox, Oblivion was exclusive to Xbox for a long period of time, Skyrim DLC was exclusive, so we’ve done a lot of, like, our initial stuff is all Xbox.
“So when we get into development and say we’re focused on Xbox, it’s not abnormal for us in any way, it’s been kind of the norm. And from a development side I like the ability to focus and have help from them, you know the top engineers at Xbox, to say we are going to make this look incredible on the new systems, from my standpoint it’s just awesome.”
Well that's certainly a way to spin what he said
Starfield looks good but not ‘I wasn’t going to buy an Xbox but now I will’ good. Redfall just doesn’t look good. I hope Todd and team find their system seller title soon.
The sad thing is, you already have an entire fanbase of players with no intentions of playing this who are waiting for this thing to drop solely so they can shit on it.
Can't be a system seller if it doesn't have marketing so no one knows what to forward too
No game developer thinks it’s “awesome” that their game will be played by less people. This is a PR answer.
No Crap the exclusivity is awesome my man had the biggest payday of his life.
Exclusivity is never 'awesome' for a developer. Literally all first party devs secretly would like their game to be available to Everybody, so everybody gets to enjoy the years of work they've put into it and also to make more money, ultimately.
bro this thing has to be a finished product that isnt filled with endless bugs glitches and perma crashes and bethesda has a massiv failure rate with all of these id be sweating if i was him right now
I mean... It's Todd after all 🥱
Can't wait for this to come to PS6. 🙏🏼
Starfield is love, Starfield is life.🤷🏾♂️
I can only hope the delay from November of this year will allow them to iron out any and all issues still present. I'm not truly hopeful, though. This is Bethesda, after all. And the more ambitious their games become, the more likely they'll be full of problems.
Feeling a lot of pressure? Exclusivity or not, he should feel a lot of pressure because of the hype created and all the promise's he'd made for fallout76.
I can only imagine, 20+ million gamers going to be experiencing Starfield withing days of release... that would be terrifying/exciting.
Xbox as an ecosystem definitely needs a system seller.
He should be feeling that pressure. This game has potential to be a console killer. “Has the” not is. We’re all sitting back and waiting to see. No way Xbox is going to let possibly one of the most hyped/anticipated games be crap. You know they’re pouring tons of funds into this.
The amount of Sony ponies copium in the comments. 😄 You know, those best Sony exclusives will come to windows eventually, so again a Microsoft platform. Starfield will never be on Playstation.
Game is going to be hot dog poop.
I legit hope they do well with this. In Ragnarök I had game crashes, bosses not spawning in and ungodly screen tearing. Yet people look past the bugs there because 'GoW good'(it was btw) so I can look past issues here so long as they aren't as bad as vanilla Skyrim was.
Starfield 76👀
No one should ever buy platform for one game
I'm sure it will be a masterpiece a few years after launch when mods fix all the bugs because Bethesda only release full priced betas
Why was Howard so concerned? Microsoft said it themselves that they don't consider Starfield or a possible TES6 a system seller but a 'mid-size' game that won't make people want to buy a console.
As long that is not shit like Fallout 4
This is gonna be a buggy mess at launch.
Amazing interview. Todd is a god in gaming. Can't wait for Starfield. Noone, absolutely noone makes RPGs like Bethesda. There is no substitute. Starfield I want now!!!!
Wait so Microsoft only cares about acquiring Bethesda and Activision Blizzard to boost console sales? Hmm not for the gamers just for there own coffers?
Isn't it suppose to be about games not console sales!?!
Looks lame lol
He did it with Skyrim. He pulled it off again. Will it 60FPS? That's what I want to know!
I trust BGS to deliver on this one, super pumped for Starfield. 👨🏽🚀
Just make sure the game is fun to play for ages to come like elder scrolls. No need to feel all that pressure. Just do the fans right and give us a good solid game.
Definitely will be picking this up!
All the talk and no date as usual. lol
Make new ip for Xbox just saying
I'm glad they can focus on one console system, making it easier for them. I won't be playing since I prefer PS, but hope the games good. These type of games don't hit the same on PC so might just skip it. these are much more fun as couch games
Can't wait to play this on my new gaming laptop!!
Yeah of course he’s going to praise it and he has to, imagine bashing the exclusivity while being owned by Microsoft. That would not be a good look.
No Man's Sky
If it's great, it will push me over the edge to get a series X. If it's OK, I'll look for it on a month of pc gamepass and play it on a 1080ti.
it will be jank garbage as usual
ill give it a go on pc but cant really see myself playing it for too long just doesn't really seem like my kind of game. I think a lot of people are going to be let down by how much they have hyped this game up same thing happens all the time when they hype games like this up
They have the formula for a good rpg just hope they spend a little extra time on those graphics.
I am just excited to play a new Bethesda RPG even though it took them so long to release a new game like damn man.
Pressure is good keeps you thinking and on edge.
You mean a subscription seller!
Let's see what DigitalFoundry says about that.
Will probably be mid, many such cases for team green.
How can you make a system seller when it’s launching on PC the same day ? Thanks for helping sell PC’s though.
gamepass...
He's not going to say it sucks they're owned by Microsoft he's not going to talk shit about him
I'll buy and play it on my PC, but I really think this game is going to dissapoint people a lot. On the same note though, I think Song overhype their games beyond absurd limits, only good Sony exclusives are GoW and Bloodborne.
Hope they take their time and not rush this game.
Let's see what DigitalFoundry says about that..
Starfield is awesome 🔥
More like gamespass seller.
Normal, theres always pressure from outside stuff
Crazy how people are always okay whenever ps have third party exclusive but complaining if xbox or Nintendo got them. The bias is real.
Todd’s gonna sing for his checks now-lol😅
SELLOUT
Let's see what DigitalFoundry says about that
“A stellar seller.” It’ll sell because of PC more so than Xbox and will be played more on PC than Xbox in the long run. I dont see this game breaking any records like God Of War, Horizon, COD just did, or Ghost Of Tsushima. 🤷🏻♂️ Good luck though.
I’m nervous about this game. Looks cool but Bethesda jank can be real rough.
System seller when it’s on pc lol
Se viene el amarillo
this game is going to flop so hard lmfao
Xbox made starfield a better game. It'll be the most ambitious game ever made. The ponies just jealous you can't play it on playstation.
