Another first-person shooter. :-(

They spend all that money and time creating worlds, it'd be nice to have another Skyrim or two some day. Set in a cyberpunk world. There aren't enough RPGs made anymore.

A) This studio’s 3 previous games were all third-person RPGs, including Witcher 3, which was well-reviewed as GOTY when it released.

B) this game is similar to Skyrim in that it’s first-person

Skyrim is merely a FPS with swords. It has dialogues, but so does this game (and apparently a lot of them).

It's actually a first-person RPG.

Starfield is likely roughly a year out. So that’s pretty exciting.

I'm sorry but what is this based on? Bethesda showed a logo and a pre-rendered video of a planet. I have a feeling we're far more than roughly a year out from Starfield releasing.

Pete Hines said it needed “some time and attention after this year”, “it’s playable”, and (in so many words) “it’s next after fallout 76”. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XA6YHeaOO-Y So that sounds like 1, maybe 2 years.

It all boils down on the ratio between shooting and interacting with other characters, exploring the world etc. I wouldn't mind being 1 hour cowboy if I could also live 5 hours as explorer. For instance, I loved Mass Effect 1 and 2 for having just the right balance between action and the rest.

I don't know, it seems more intense as an FPS than Skyrim:

"Cyberpunk 2077 diverges from that series in a few major ways, and the first is with brutal high-speed gunplay. "

I played warsow and watched some quake 3 ctf with cpm physics, so I have to say the only thing that is going to be fast here is the guns.
