I'm kinda the opposite of you. I love Bethesda games, but the fantasy element doesn't do it for me. I never liked Skyrim or the elder scrolls series but loved the fallout series, as well as games like outer worlds. I am not going to preorder the game but I am very excited to see their take on a space rpg, because I love fallout and I love space exploration so if combined well it should become an instant favorite of mine.

You and I are similar. I've developed a slightly bigger interest for fantasy in the recent months, but still am sci-fi space-faring monkey through-and-through.

I have sunk hundreds of hours into No Man's Sky already, and I think I'll sink even more into Starfield tinkering with my ships... or ships that didn't use to be mine at first, to be more precise. I'm really excited to play a game of that scope where ships and their systems are kinda psychical objects in the world, taking space, changing what you see, etc. Same goes for the outposts.

I'm not going to preorder either, although I will go much more off the grid 5 days prior to release, as the early access spacers are probably going to spoil some initial moments for me. I've been waiting for this game for way too many years to know anything more than the marketing material about it.
