It’s a guy playing the beginning of the game, it’s filmed in vertical with the phone :) Will most likely be taken down very soon.

I didn’t watch the intro, just skimmed through the gameplay parts, looks really good.

    Let’s not pretend that just because Bethesda started out as a PC developer that it means the games run well. I still can’t get a stable frame rate on Fallout 4 in all areas, shit I still can’t get a stable frame rate in Oblivion due to the game’s own optimization being a bottleneck. Their games are very moddable, but their huge amount of content and dynamic mechanics have clearly made it difficult to optimize.

    Hopefully the game will run decently, but I doubt it’ll be a totally seamless and smooth experience, though I’d love to be proven wrong.

      Well, I said decent, and not good or amazing for a reason. Their games aren’t the pinnacle of optimization, but also they are far from the shitty ports out there, specially given how massive their games usually are.

      That said, I would never preorder a game. I’m confident that it will be good, but I will see that when it’s released.

      Bethesda is hamstringed by their game engine, that is just an engine whose roots stem all the way back to gamebryo

        Still, I prefer “poor” (bethesda games don’t not perform that poorly, really) performance with lots of system driven interactions and absolute modability like almost no other games out there than “good” performance.
