God I hope science fiction games replace fantasy as the dominant subgenre in RPGs in the 2020s.

me too
Destiny aint cutting it anymore

>Star Wars tier bullshit
>Sci-fi
You must watch Rick & Morty, you are so smart.
I wonder if this has anything to do with Scam Citizen? The game may never come out but it did show there's a market for space operas.

As long as the ships aren't useless loading screen charms.

Are they confirmed to be not live service games? Fuck those things. If I wanted an MMO I'd play a fucking MMO.

Really looking forward to Outer Wards, shame about the EGS drama, thankfully the chinks have payed for me

I'm cautiously interested in The Outer Worlds. Starfield can fuck off, I'm sick of open world garbage.

>Starfield can fuck off
Hey, don't be rude. It's the first big game from this little guy.

Open world games are superior to linear games.

No chance. Sci-fi is even more of a turn off for women than high fantasy. Industry must expand so the themes of the future will be as gender neutral as possible

Yeah, if you're a retard that judges game quality on the amount of time it wastes, maybe.

Actually there is no so many big open world fantasy/sci fi games. If anything their release is big thing

Destiny had a good thing going on in the first game and seasons, they fucked it up with 2.

Fast travel exists for a reason, user.

fantasy will always appeal to a much wider audience, sorry

Modern fast travel is an abomination.
Small and intricate > Large wastelands

>I fast travel everywhere I go
Then why the fuck do you prefer open world games, retard?

is that why Star Wars is one of the most successful pieces of media ever produced?

>Starfield

What is "Outer Worlds" and why am I just hearing about it now? Also is there any news on Starfield?

>Expecting the average game dev to understand anything about science

movies are a different story
a lot of mechanics needed for a game to be succesful work much better in a fantasy setting and not sci-fi

Wokesidian's next flop

Why not Sci-Fi fantasy? Gunning down medieval savages with energy weapons in enchanted Power Armors

>SJW writers
dropped

Avellone is gone btw. Hasn't worked there for years. He's publicly disparaged the company. The Obsidian you knew and loved is loooooooong gone.

Magic can always be given a sci-fi anaolgy. Even a fantasy world with magic and shit could just be that planets moon as some sentient watcher that pumps out nanobots that these dumb fuck wizards think is magic they're using.

Yes! I, a Fellow Poster™ am also hype for such upcoming Science Fiction hits as Cyberpunk 2077, Fallout 5, and Serious Sam: Planet Badass!

Star wars OT is a fantasy story with minor sci-fi dressing to trick scifi fans.

I

FUCKING

>tfw your favourite sci-fi is other shit with sci-fi window dressing

LOVE

SCIENCE

In Starfield you control a space station. Space combat is a more in depth version of the Mothership Zeta space battle.

yeah sure but it literally just doesn't work well enough and doesn't appeal to as many people as old fashioned magic, swords, dragons and shit

there are people on this very board who are upset that Baldurs Gate 3 isn't being made by these "people".

fuck im a retard
obsidian won
