OK so its not the greatest game ever made,and goty seems to be out the window,but I love bethesdas rpgs for my own stories and adventures,I use to play no mans sky and elite for hours and hours,and youre basically doing the same thing over and over ,there's just something about a vast space game that I find engrossing,especially places that exist in our universe that I can visit ,albeit in video game form,so is it 1am in the uk,looks like I'll be forking out that 30 quid upgrade to play early ,im gonna be tired in work tommorrow 😂

@awp69 completely different games and experiences, and ff16 is superb by the way.

@Aniscape hey, nothing with liking something

So I understand if it upgrade the game pass edition to premium,if my game pass runs out the game is locked,but if I want to upgrade to the full game at a later date,how much is that gonna cost me ? Also if I buy a physical copy and use that, will I still be on the premium version?

I hated gears 5, its worse than judgement in my opinion ,and the MP is crap now,can we not just go back to the original gears design ,small tight levels with amazing fire fights ,I use to love that game.

@CutchuSlow youre mistaken

@Aniscape 😂 oh god I hope so, xbox needs a must have game ,itll make Sony try harder and in turn make xbox follow suit,good for all gamers

@Aniscape ive just watched the video regarding the boundary, and the planet is basically tatooine,so boring as hell 😂

@Aniscape I just wanted to explore untethered,if the planet is there procedurally generated like bethesda suggested ,why force players to basically fast travel to another part of the map ,the only reason I can see is that, they didn't have the technical know how to do that,for a massive company like bethesda with the money ms has brought to the game ,I dont get how that couldn't be achievable ,I just hope its not been all smoke and mirrors ,and the game isn't as deep as they have been making it out to be.

@BBB freedom for the player is taken away ,immersion is broken,if they would've said the planets are broken up into segments that would've been fine ,im sure they couldve come up with a gameplay element that would explain why you can't walk from point a to b to c to d,so your flying across a planet on your jetpack taking in the sights and then plonk,barrier reached ,thats not a good thing.

@Aniscape fair points ,but in my view planetary exploration is compromised doin it this way ,i found the way that they explained the planets like procedural mixed with hand crafted settlements etc was very interesting and not been done before ,they've took away that feeling of wandering for hours and then making your way back,then you see your ship in the distance and its your final trek home,the barrier sounds like a loading screen to me and they couldn't actually implement full sized planets ,no mans sky and elite have done it for years ,its 2023 ,bethesda shouldve been able to implement this,anyway we don't really know yet how it works ,so its all conjecture.

@Aniscape no,no,no ,think of it this way ,imagine playing skyrim,then you left whiterun to go exploring and it said boundary reached so you had to access the map and go to another area of the map ,to access riften....total immersion breakage,even barren planets have that sense of wonder, you see a mountain in the distance and get that boundary reached message,no thanks.

@Kaloudz theyve released the game for review, so it should be reviewed as such, patch or not,you could say that about most games these days,starfield should not get a pass ,I see starfield as make or break for xbox,If its not astounding, expect backlash,listen,can you hear playstation players sniggering.

@CrimsonRidley only 90 percent of planets have nothing on them,they want us to explore and then limit that exploration, explains why there's no vehicles ,stop and start gameplay in a game like this, is disappointing,hopefully it isn't like people are making out ,but if it is,expect it to get marked down in review scores.

Whats this 'boundary reached' screenshot of the game, thats suggests you can't actually traverse a whole planet ,its set out in chunks of explorable space, where you have to select different parts of the map,if this is true its a huge disappointment to me,and waned my enthusiasm considerably.

@Foxx_64740 chorus is great i loved it

@Fenbops I disagree

@Fenbops Sammy on push square is hardly a playstation fanboy ,hes one of there biggest critics,to the annoyance sometimes of everyone else.

@Trmn8r its on ps plus as well though, so why would playstation owners be mad.

I'll buy the physical copy second hand in a few months for 20 quid,in the meantime ,game pass it is,fingers crossed it lives up to the hype,if not ,ive got baldurs gate 3 on ps5 to play

Maybe a 360 ,but those days are far behind xbox at the moment ,they don't really have much that would persuade people to spend over 400 ,im sure starfield will be very good ,maybe in a few years,ps has so many games you can't play anywhere else ,xbox not so much.

@BrianRGI2X so you want them to delay a game because of a parity clause ,placed by ms on their underpowered glorified xbox one,delay a game because it doesn't work on one platform ,seriously 😂

@NintendoByNature blame ms for that and their parity clause

@BrilliantBill if the series s and ps4 arent left behind soon, this generation will be over ,and all we would have had from the ps5 and series x ,would be increased resolutions and better fps ,id prefer they used that extra power for better npc ai ,im sure those lightning fast hard drives, could be used in more innovative ways ,than just shorter load times,ms was quick enough to let go of the one x ,its time to let the series s die.

@BrilliantBill digital foundry already proved that running ratchet on a ps4 wouldn't work by using a ps4 hd on a pc,it breaks the game to the point that its unplayable

Makes me wonder, if ms didn't have game pass to fall back on ,would they have released redfall in this state.

@Sifi there's was a great game behind all the bugs of days gone ,redfall doesn't have that luxury

Lot of hopes pinned onto starfield from xbox gamers ,its a bit of a worry that they've gone for the procedural planet route ,I would have preferred maybe 20 massive hand crafted ones.

@Widey85 millions of people still buy physical, just because you don't know anyone, doesn't mean they don't exist, maybe get more friends.

Ooof, cant cant say I'm suprised,another dud from xbox game studios 🙄 so all those previews saying goty material ,where lying or paid by ms.oh you gotta laugh

@Widey85 ive got an xbox i hardly use it, I dont have time to trawl through all that crap on gamepass ,its a fact that the majority of xbox gamers do not buy their games ,jedi survivor 82 percent physical sales on ps5 ,and this is the case for most big releases

@GamingFan4Lyf please don't use Wikipedia to prove a point ,its the equivalent of saying "Bob down the pub told me"

@Skedaddle ooh look at all that indie crap 😂

@Widey85 maybe xbox players need to start buying games, and not waiting for it to appear on game pass,ms has shot themselves in the foot,buying up large studios and publishers, is the only way they compete.

@Krzzystuff or maybe its because its an unbiased decision ,and have nothing to gain from a cloud deal....Good grief.

@Belkan microsoft has the means to make exclusive games with the studios they have ,you know like Sony and Nintendo do ,they seem more concerned about getting all the content on gamepass,its no secret that the xbox brand was dead in the water and the ms bigwigs wanted it scrapped ,then uncle Phil thought of gamepass to keep it alive,they won't be happy with all these shenanigans.

@TheSilverFalcon Japanese laws are completely different that wouldn't be allowed

@Belkan they do that now ,gamepass is full of them

@Kaloudz youre not strictly wrong ,I think its curved swords that are banned or something ,anyway there's a type of sword that's banned

@Kaloudz https://ravenforge.com/collections/new-in
There you go 😁

@PhileasFragg aww you beat me to it ha ha ,yeah raven forge are great.

@Kaloudz of course you can ,i have many swords ,raven forge are the guys you need ,they have live swords and replica gaming and movie swords ,as well as helmets ,shields and everything in between ,now im gonna try and get some money off for the plug 😁
