You know the gamig industry is absolutely booming when we get excited for main menu screenshots

Todd Howard, whispering:

you’re welcome

I’m not a fan of the big banner on the screen, but it’s an otherwise nice looking menu screen.

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That's how they do things in FO4 and FO76, no surprise really

[-] Okalaydokalay@lemm.ee 24 points 1 year ago

Oh joy, nice empty space on the right so they can bombard it with advertisements for random bullshit.

I miss a clean layout like Halo: Combat Evolved. Just the basics, nothing more, nothing less.

[-] o_oli@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

Personally don't mind a bit of development news, patch notes, expansions pack adverts etc personally. It's empty space and if you don't want to look at it then you can be past it in 0.5 seconds anyway.

Obviously if its XP boosts and annoying DLC adverts then it can get to fuck though.

You don't mind the stuff that should be there but we both know they're going to exploit that blank space.

[-] Milan@feddit.nl 2 points 1 year ago

Don't worry, there'll be a mod to remove it on day 1.

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Not on consoles, it looks like

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

both fo3 and fnv have empty space on their main menu. same with skyrim. nobody fucking complained

[-] Okalaydokalay@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

All those games came out over 10 years ago when this wasn’t being done.

And I’m not complaining about empty spaces but the ugly, unnecessary ads they litter the menu with and designing empty spaces specifically for that purpose.

Oldrim sure but not Special Edition. I don't own Anniversary so I can't comment but my assumption is that it won't be any less than Special Edition. Fallout 3 and New Vegas benefit from not being tied to the Creation Club where this bullshit originates from.

[-] Sentau@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

Special edition also has empty space and all the game launch options are in the bottom right.

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Looks to me like the next evolution of the Skyrim and FO4 menus

[-] Kuro@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Decent main menu

I have yet to see anything live up to Halo's menus though

Is there a leaked copy out there or something?

[-] rubberducky182@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

the preload started yesterday and people have been datamining.

[-] guriinii@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Reviewers have been given early access but aren't allowed to release info until the 1st of September.

Will mounts cost $30 and starships $100?

[-] Madex@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Jokes on you I already spent over £4k on star citizen

[-] shottymcb@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

And I was mad about throwing away whatever the lowest kickstarter pledge was to get that vaporware

[-] jackfrost@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I hope I can mod a replacement image without too much trouble-- that flare on the right is uncomfortably bright when the image is expanded to full screen on my desktop monitor. There's all kinds of pre-existing Starfield art assets that would work, starting with official wallpaper that scales up to 5K.

[-] apinanaivot@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

I would imagine the background is animated in some way, perhaps even changing every time you launch the game
