Skyrim (modded) is my favorite game and I am hoping Starfield turns out to be something like a massive sci-fi RPG.
I still don’t get why Bethesda decided to let so much time pass since the last elder scrolls game.

Even if I wasn't so biased against Bethesda Softworks, I would ask this: what is there to be excited about? We know nothing about this game. What its genre is, what its mechanics will be, its art direction, its story, its setting, its...everything. All we have is that it's in outer space. Whoop-dee-freaking-doo. And yet they're so arrogant that they're providing a release date a year-and-a-half ahead of time (on 11/11 again), coasting entirely on their brand name as the guys who made Skyrim and Fallout 4. This is just "Bethesda is about to make you its bitch. Suck it down."
I thought it was confirmed to be on the Gamebryo engine? That's the engine that they've been using for ~20 years now, but that they're still barely competent with.
There are also things that can be reasonably inferred, like micro-transactions that breaks mods every time Beth adds another half-assed re-texture. I'd also bet on it being a looter shooter, since that's the direction they went with Fallout 4 and 76.
