A
post
on the service formerly known as Twitter offers a thank you from Bethesda
Softworks to mark the Early Access launch of
Starfield. Here's word from
the folks behind the sci-fi RPG:
To all of you who have supported us over
the many years and games, a heartfelt THANK YOU for all of your passion and
energy for Starfield. We would not have gotten to this moment without it.
It seems like forever ago that we first started talking about making a grand
space RPG. It never seemed feasible and we had been lucky enough to create games
we (and all of you fortunately!) loved in The Elder Scrolls and Fallout series.
Yet, we couldn't shake the idea of exploring the galaxy in ways that only video
games could do. And so, we took the leap to create not just our first new IP in
over 25 years, but our most ambitious.
All of us here at Bethesda poured ourselves into this game, and through the ups
and downs of development, you kept us going. Your messages of encouragement or
stories of how our games affected you, kept reminding us how important it is.
Thank you for making video games the best community and entertainment form in
the world. Thank you for allowing us to chase our dreams and create them.
Creating Starfield has been one of the most challenging and thrilling
experiences of our careers — a journey we'll never forget. And as we come to the
end of this chapter, we pass it along to you, where the real journey can now
begin — yours. We hope it's as rewarding as ours. We can't wait for you to
play.
