Bethesdan mies Todd Howard on ollut viime viikkoina tapetilla, sillä Starfield julkaistaan 6. syyskuuta 2023. Nyt Howard on Redditissä kiittänyt kollegoitaan ja muita työntekijöitä.
Windows Central löysi sisäisen muistion, jossa Howard kertoi Starfieldin idean kertomisesta johdolle. Se oli vuosi 2013.
"It was early 2013, we were developing {Fallout 4}, and Skyrim was still enjoying enormous success. I was there to pitch [ZeniMax CEO Robert Altman] on our next game. It would not be a sequel to our current games, (he looked concerned), but a grand space RPG and our first new IP in over 25 years (looks curious). It would delve into creation and the search for our place in the universe (slight twinkle). You would explore the galaxy in ways only video games can do. And it would be called - Starfield. (Smile)"
Howard kiitti myös Xbox-pomo Phil Spenceriä.
"His support of every game and every player has been unwavering and fierce. Joining Xbox brought us closer to so many we had worked with for over 20 years. I cannot imagine a better place to create games, where the diversity of studios, creators, and games are allowed to flourish."
Ja kuten oikein on, Howard kiitti muuta Starfieldin tekijätiimiä Bethesdalla.
"Most importantly, it's an incredible blessing to be surrounded by so many talented and inspirational people every day. Moments like this make you reflect back. Some of us have been together for decades, some joined more recently, but everyone has the same passion. I could not be prouder of their continued dedication to create something truly special."
Redditissä tuli vielä loppukommentti.
"Hey everyone! Long time lurker here. A quick THANK YOU for your passion and excitement for Starfield. I can remember when this sub started, and as it's grown, your excitement has fueled all of us at Bethesda."
Bethesdan osalta Starfield alkaa olla maalissa, mutta pelaajilla se vasta alkaa.
