Todd Howard says Starfield is next-gen but it could "exist on the current systems as well"
The Bethesda Game Studios boss 𒈔talks about Starfield's destination

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Bethesda Game Studios boss Todd Howard introduced 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Starfield as a "next-generation, single-player game," but you may not actually 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:need a next-gen system to play it. In an interview with , Howard offered up some of the first official details about Starfield since its debut at E3 2018, including what exactly he meant by calling it next-gen. That means ne༺w hardware, new software, and thinking about what "the next-generation of single player RPGs" feels like, Howard explained, and it doesn't rule out supporting older hardware.
"What systems we put it out on - what's the hardware requirements - is still to be determined," Howard said. "We're pushing it; we're thinking very, very far in the future so ꦜwe're building something that will handle next-generation hardware. That's what we're building on right now, that's where our mind is, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't exist on the current systems as well."
right now, so he's not just talking about concepts and theories.So that's the technical end. What about the game itself - will it not only look like a generational leap but feel like one, too? In other words, how reductive and inaccurate will 🐲the inevitable "Skyrim in space" shouts be when🦩 people compare Starfield to the overall Bethesda Game Studios portfolio?
"It's different, but if you sit down and play it you would recognise it as something we made if that makes sense? It has our DNA in it. It has things that we like," Howard said. "But it has a lot o♍f new systems we've been thinking about for a while that fit that kind of game really well. We'll talk about it in the future. See, now I wish I hadn't announced it!"
Tantalizing yet vague, just like when Todd Howard teased more Elder Scrolls 6 details. By "new systems" does he mean stuff like another totally reworked advancement system, or vehicle-based space exploration, or both, or neither? Even if we'll be able to play Starfield on the machines we have right now, we'll still have to wait at least until the next generation of consoles arrives to play Starfield (and definitely 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elder Scrolls 6) and find out for ourselves.
