I analysed the footage we have for Starfield to get an idea of what type of game we should expect, as well as extrapolating from what we've seen and adding my own speculation. I've labelled speculation so you can tell what's fully known and what's speculation.
The footage in the video is from Bethesda's Official Gameplay release. The content of the essay and the voice recording is the author's.
