When Fridman asked what difference the exclusivity makes to the developers of the game, Todd Howard expressed his view. He said, “From a development side, I like the ability to focus, and have help from them, you know, the top engineers at Xbox to say we are going to make this look incredible on the new systems, is like from my standpoint, it’s just awesome.”
He also revealed that the Starfield team is being assisted by top Xbox engineers to make Starfield a perfect showcase for Xbox consoles. Some people agree with this statement, but some are also against it.
New gameplay informations on Starfield
Todd Howard revealed some gameplay information about Starfield as well. The game would apparently have a leveled star system. Every planet in a system would have a different level. There would be no fuel mechanic to the ship. We would be able to fly anywhere without worrying about running out of fuel. There would be a bunch of robot enemies.

Our Spacesuit would provide different protection buffs from different elements, such as gases/toxicity/temperature. This would change the usability of suits from planet to planet. Finally, Todd Howard mentioned that currently the team working on Starfield is under immense pressure. They are worried because Starfield is now seen as “The Game” for Xbox consoles.
On the matter of Starfield, Bethesda has more supporters than people opposing them. Their games never fail to impress with their detail and the amount of content that comes with them. For those really excited about it should know that there is news that we might see a new trailer for Starfield at the upcoming Game Awards.
