Starfield is continuing the Bethesda IP tradition of manifesting through any feasible medium, having recently been caught as the theme for a custom PC. On display at Worlds of Bethesda, recently held down under during PAX Aus, pictures captured the intricate craftsmanship that adopted Starfield's aesthetic.
With Starfield poised to become Bethesda Games Studio's first new IP in 25 years, significant hype has developed surrounding the storytelling and world-building potential of the novel universe. Shortly before the first ever gameplay presentation of the title in June this year, it was announced that Starfield would be pushed from this coming November, to sometime in 2023.
Uploaded photos by Reddit user StarfieldExplorer47 present a bulky but rather neat construction, especially given the size. Encased in an ostensibly transparent structure, with the Starfield logo emblazoned in the center, comments on the post theorize that the components used could include "either a 6800 or 6900" acting as the graphics card. The consensus is that while aesthetically pleasing, the gaming rig would likely be a nuisance to clean and maintain. Regardless, once the event concluded a fortunate fan was able to bring it home with them, many wishing good luck with keeping the PC dust free. Click here to see the rest of the images.
Bethesda IP are famous, or infamous depending on the perspective, for their broad reach in the gaming industry and beyond. The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim has been released so many times it is difficult to count and Fallout 76 spawned "16 times the detail," a meme mocking the claim made by Todd Howard regarding the title. Bethesda's boast that Starfield will include over 1000 unique worlds is seemingly priming itself for a similar fate, with gamers concerned that the quantity of planets will diminish their quality, though that remains to be seen.
If another claim made during the most recent Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase comes to fruition, then gamers can hope for Starfield to be in their hands by June next year. However, reporting suggests that significantly more time may be required, with developers working on the title alleging the existence of internal concerns that the game could turn out to be the next "Cyberpunk." This is in reference to Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt Red's once absurdly anticipated RPG, that released as a technical disaster. It took two years for the title to regain meaningful attention, with a conveniently timed anime, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, acting as the catalyst for the sudden engagement. Bethesda would be wise to take its time and release Starfield when it is truly ready if it wants toi avoid a similar situation.
Starfield will release in 2023 for PC and Xbox Series X.
