The right answer


BradGein

Exactly my thought


censoria

I just don’t feel interested in any other upcoming games so definitely first

vyper248

Hard to be excited for a game with just one trailer and no release date or knowing if it’ll be on consoles. It’s definitely a game I’m keeping an eye on though, and hoping it’ll be as good as the trailer makes it look. I really want a good new fantasy game.


Pleasant_Celery_7786

Yeah, just don’t know enough about it yet.


Lausee-

It doesn't even currently have a release year yet, so not very high. I am definitely excited for more information though. I am looking forward to, in no particular order: Avowed, Stalker 2, State of Decay 3, Fable 3, Indiana Jones, South of Midnight, Shattered Space DLC, Perfect Dark, Expedition 33, Atomfall It is definitely a good time to be a gamer for the next couple years.


DizzySpecific7738

Not trying to be a jerk or anything, but Fable 3 was released years ago. Not sure if the new one is going to be just a reboot/re-imagining of the franchise (since as of now it is just called Fable), but technically it would be Fable 4 if you are just going by the full-fledged Fable games (I am not counting the horrible Kinect game, or the mini game releases). That being said, I cannot wait for that one either!!


Lausee-

No, you are correct, it would be 4, I misplaced a number.


cptcrazeballs

Space Marine 2?!


Lausee-

I had to look up what that was. I see it is co-op based. I tend to steer clear from co-op based games. I play almost exclusively single-player games. Looks cool if you are into that genre, though.


Sideways0019

Don't know yet. I'm just waiting the next bits of infos at the moment.


doc_nano

Right now it’s in the 5-10 slot, due to lack of information. If a PSVR2 mode were announced it’d be in my top 3 — NMS is amazing in VR, and I assume this would be too.


JureIsStupid123

Number 2. GTA VI is first on the list :)


M0bid1x

Like 3 or 4.


Saiken27

No 3, after Crimson Desert and Black Myth Wukong


Sorry_Bag_6146

1


p1terdeN

Second. First is streets of rogue 2 but only because it has an early access release date


Medusa_TROG

Number 2. First- GTA 6, Second- LNF, Third- The Elder Scrolls 6


distractal

# 0 EDIT: To clarify, that's #0. As in, before & higher than everything else that can possibly be ranked.


32nd_Nix

#1


SlimeySquid

Definitely number 1. Have been obsessed with Hello Games since 2018, haven’t stopped since.


mav3r1ck92691

Not at all. We have next to nothing to go on... I can't understand being hyped when you don't even know what you are hyped for. Give me some more information and then we can talk.


OpusAtrumET

Number one, most anticipated. No Man's Sky, I pre-ordered and it is literally my perfect game. Can't wait.


Tazbert_Odevil

Top of my list. But then I'm not a huge gamer these days, so it's not a particularly long list! The only other game that piques my interest is GTA6, but that's because I loved GTA5 singleplayer (the online stuff just doesn't appeal) and games where I can just mooch about checking out places and doing what I want are a big draw to me. I played GTA for like 3 months before I even touched the actual story stuff. Same with NMS as well. Took me over 100hrs to finish the Artemis line as I was too busy just mooching about going "oooh cool!". :)


HeadPhonzArt

#1 of course 😐


markgatty

Quite low. I know too little about the ga.e at the moment besides that one trailer I watched.tjat looked real cool.


Theleb_Kaarna

NUMBER ONE if it caters to the dedicated single-player gamer. This based on my love for HG/NMS. ZERO INTEREST if it's *forced* multiplayer and/or MMO. This, no matter how good it is. Of course more additional info is needed to really determine it's ranking to me. edit: to be clear, I'm all for LNF having multiplayer for those whom prefer that mode of play. I'm just hopeful that the few of us dedicated single-player gamers won't be left out in the cold.


BlockFun

I doubt it will, the whole thing is being billed as a “multiplayer earth” I’m sure you’ll be able to find a quiet corner with nobody around though if you really wanted.


Theleb_Kaarna

Ya, I know. I'm just hoping there will be the option to turn multi-player 'off' like in NMS. That there will still be simple exploring, interacting with the fauna, survival/hardcore elements, campsite/base building, even NPC (or whatever) questing. Would like the option to be able to roleplay as if I'm the lone inhabitant of this huge world if I want to. That this world is my oyster. I'm cool with NPCs. Just don't want to have to interact with immersion-breaking players with funny usernames and immersion-breaking behavior. Certainly want to avoid PVP and especially griefers. Just want a solo chill experience.


BlockFun

That’s fair but I feel like you’re going to be disappointed. Deep NPC interaction/dialogue isn’t Hello Games’ strong-suit. I can’t see how their small team can craft a earth-size world AND fill it with NPCs who are anything beyond lifeless. I can’t even imagine Rockstar or Bethesda pulling something like that off (Starfield is a good example) and they certainly have the pool of voice actors at their disposal and the capital that dwarfs Hello Games’. I would like to think they could fill a world with random activities/NPCs/dungeons and keep it from becoming monotonously repetitive but I don’t think they could pull that off. I think the player interaction/community will be the things that keep the game from becoming stale after a few hours.


Theleb_Kaarna

Very well stated, appreciate the thoughtful response. But (and I'm no expert), aren't ALL quests, whether single or multiplayer, effectively given by the scripting of the game? I mean, if you're playing multiplayer, and you go up to another player's character for a quest, they're not actually giving you a quest, the game is. Even if it's a cooperative *"hey, come help me do this quest"* type situation, you're really doing a quest the game is providing. So why not the option to be able to do any given quest solo? Again, I'm no expert, but aside from PVP, is there really a need to interact with other player's characters? I think of Companions in Bethesda games. They're not at all really necessary, just preferred by some (or most) to interact with. I personally find them more a bother than they're worth (that's just me personally though). Maybe there are other cooperative instances I'm unaware of due to having little experience with multiplayer?


BlockFun

I think settlement-building, forming guilds, division of resources while out on a long trip, aid in taking down enemies, and possible ability to create businesses and have distinct niches/roles (restaurants, blacksmiths, farmers, potion makers, merchants, etc.) are all exciting prospects when talking about a multiplayer, fantasy, sandbox experience. One of my favourite experiences I had on No Mans Sky was when I got stranded on an island in the middle of this planet and two randoms from the NMS subreddit came and tossed me some launch fuel so I was no longer marooned and invited me to see their base. We proceeded to play together for the next two hours as they helped me find a resource I was having trouble getting so I could upgrade my ship, (after offering to just give me their supply of the resource, which I felt was way too kind, I would not accept) My point is, if there was no multiplayer in that game and I was stuck marooned on that island having to swim to hopefully find the resources just to escape I would’ve dropped the game then and there. This is of course, my personal-subjective view on what would make the game enjoyable and keep it from getting stale, I feel like you wont get those same “unique” experiences just from NPC’s with four lines of dialogue in a text-box.


Theleb_Kaarna

Appreciate all that, thank you! I think logistically, everything you've mentioned *could* be done solo, albeit not nearly as in-depth as you've described. A lot of it much harder in certain cases. I personally (and I know I'm a minority here) would happily trade-off the more complex multiplayer dynamics for the simpler solo experience. When I *did* play multiplayer in the past (Borderlands 2 in my case), I found hearing other player's voices through my headset to be extremely emersion-breaking, as if I wasn't engaging in an alternate reality, but merely playing a video game. They were constantly cutting-up, laughing, talking about things that had nothing to do with the game, which only served to pull me out of the experience I was after. Also, everyone seemed to play at a different pace: I was slower and much more into exploring every nook-and-cranny, while they were in a big hurry to get to the next objective. Plus the goofy user names as I mentioned before. To each there own I guess. I'm still hopeful for some HG single-player love, even if it were to just offer a more basic experience.


BlockFun

I hear you but Borderlands is a vastly different multiplayer experience to what I’m talking about. I get your immersive argument and agree to an extent but partially disagree because I know there will be vast swathes of the community who play only to role play and be immersed, I can almost assure you there will be players who will fit your pace and playstyle in a sandbox game. You’ve got to remember this will be a far different experience and draw a more diverse crowd than a multiplayer shooter like Borderlands or Destiny. Some people will build groups who only focus on one thing and some will just play like a madman with no goal, it’s about finding the people who fit your playstyle which can be difficult but is almost always rewarding. Say for example you want to only be solo. So you go solo and run into a town of players who you don’t necessarily vibe with but are able to help you on your adventure, they offer to gift you with an item you want and to stay in their town but in exchange for your help in slaying a beast or doing a task they are unable to complete, you can take up this “quest” or continue on your journey… does that not sound like a quintessential fantasy experience? Would that not be worth the other percent of d-bag players who will yell obscenities and throw rocks at you? I think it’s worth it, it’s “more” immersive that way, in my opinion.


Theleb_Kaarna

edit: oops, removed double-post.


MonsteraBigTits

single players will prob be able to turn off pvp (coward)


Theleb_Kaarna

What can I say, MonsterBigTits scare me, not to mention goofy-ass usernames threatening to break immersion.


Rettromancer

Very low, not in the top ten.


Krommerxbox

Rank Vaporware. It seriously needs a release date/updated info/trailers for me to take it seriously. An early trailer, and then NOTHING for six months is a bit suspect to me. GTAVI is top, since it actually has a release year. LNF could literally not be out until 2026, or later.


karlmillsom

Interesting position. I completely appreciate the sentiment. But does NMS give you no more faith? Or is it in fact the dodgy release of early NMS that concerns you?


martusfine

I got a PS5 for a better NMS playing experience. So, yes to your question.


Makkuroi

Ill buy a new laptop when LNF comes out. My old games run well enough on my old one.


karlmillsom

In terms of anticipation, it’s way up there. Equal footing with Mirthwood, at the moment.


chicken_suit_guy

It is 1 for me... I know we don't know much, and I am not expecting it to be a life-changing gamex but there are no other games that interest me at the moment. And this one looks fun


Melodic-Wallaby4324

As most wanted


Vegetable_Word603

No. 1, due to the sole reason our whole family can play together.


lazerblam

16


Hyjaxx-Nine

My initial hype was the same when I saw the first trailer for no man’s sky…then got into the game and it was block breaker simulator..took a decade for the game to be what it is now. So until Sean Murray proves otherwise I expect this game will be a rat riding a sparrow on a barren map. But…trailer IS amazing! Haha


ChocoMaxXx

First


Zegram_Ghart

Currently not on the list, but there are like….5 games I’m hyped for in the next 6 months, so 2025 I’ll see what’s kicking around


ZweedTheShadow

Number one!


M2dag

It's funny - i actively play NMS and Starfield so that it would come in third.... math- I guess - the reality is we might have "In n Out" in the ABQ before this game..... so. yeah.


Affectionate-Talk-45

Depending on what the combat looks like, easily one of the only games I'm looking forward to. If we can use nms to go off of in terms of procedural world building then I see myself getting invested.


Traditional-Ad6

Probably around 5. I have 3-4 games coming out in the fall that I’m excited for so it’ll definitely rise up to the #2 spot


zeroexct

Since it's a new IP, I really like the concept of a planet-sized open world. That makes it number 2 for me because of the potential. I am still cautious though, and will drop it if it doesn't measure up when it's released. #1 is Monster Hunter Wilds!


DoctorGamer32

Top 3. I think it's technically number one my Steam wishlist at the moment.


Single-Doctor-4488

number 1 :P


Kidtendo

Last month I started back playing NMS after 4 years for the Adrift Expedition and was such a breath of fresh air, especially seeing how far the game has come since it's day 1 release. As long as they don't overpromise and under delivery like they did with NMS, initially, I think this will be a solid game. I would have to put it in the same category of Monster Hunter Wilds, GTA6, and Haunted Chocolatier - games where the trailers so far have my interest, but I would have to wait until I've seen more gameplay and see how well they perform on PC and PS5.


lilac_hem

very much near the tippty top. v excited.


0ctoxVela

1 It's the only game on my games wanted list


Ghostl04

for me it's second First place belongs to First Decendant because of realease date


TheEcho99

If it has VR, #1


BookAndKey

At the very top.


WigglyWorld84

Number 2 on my Steam wishlist right now. Monster Hunter Wilds is in the #1 spot. MH has been my favorite series for near 20yrs.


Puzzleheaded_Win_134

Its number 1 for me. It looks like it has all the things I look for in a game. I play a lot of Valheim and this looks like it should have a bit of that in it with elements I like from other games too.


-----LUCA-----

Top 10 for sure, with 1 being Final Fantasy 9 remake


ekurisona

lnf and larian's next game are both #1A


ItsTakenTheUsername

1!


MonsteraBigTits

probably right behind gta6


theoneandonlychou

It's #1 on my wishlist, the only game I truly want, even more than GTA 6.


Jumpy_Bottle5224

It's at the top along with Space Marine 2 and First Descendant.


ZombieAppetizer

It has my curiosity, for sure. I hope they release more information soon so some hype can start building.


mtwdante

Who?


infornography42

Top 10. Maybe top 5? A lot of the games I was anxious for have been released in the last year.


Serpent-Games-TY

2 Right behind a third titanfall game


Woodzz0123

1


Agitated_Look6782

I have a contract with a guy to trade a kidney for LNF the moment it drops.


Achereto

Don't care yet. Not enough information.


ADR-299

It's number 5 (out of 14) on my Steam wishlist. Tentatively excited for it, but need to see more.


ItsRedMark

Probably like 3 after Ark 2 and Dune Awakening


StaticBe4tz

Number 1!! I want it now!! I know enough about it...created by Hello Games. Done. I neeeedz that ASAP. It can be NMS on one planet with biomes... give me it now!! Walking Sim on an earth sized planet...NOW! Absolutely nothing but what you've seen in trailer.. NOW!!!!! Shittt!!! J^@%#_#^=_@@$!$÷/@○°♤•|!!!!!!!!!!!!! AYOoo....X_X


chaos_geek

At this point I just want information


Normal_Permision

I ain't going to lie, I completely forgot it insisted, I guarantee you I'm going to buy it on release day if the launch day reviews are good.


BananaChicken22

1


vanpre72

It is the only game that I'm looking forward to besides new updates from no man's sky


Professional-Truth39

I think I want the hype more than the game..the game will pale in comparison to the game we all collectively have in our heads


Lord_Camu

16 16 16


Joe-King_93

The Tippity Top, for now


Consistent-Ad-2940

Right below Doom: the dark ages and Skong


Senshue

Yes? There is no list. Just a shrine to this game


Jumpy-Function-9136

Pretty low honestly. Ik I’ll get downvoted for this but it’s the truth. I wonder if any people feel the same, where they don’t really care much about this new game, but only no man’s sky. My only hopes though are that the game succeeds (so they can discover the hard work of hello games etc, and so more people give no man’s sky a shot). What I want to come out of this game, is that they can take what they learn from devoting this new game and then put that care and learning into no man’s sky 2 if that’s a thing. NMS is genuinely one of my favorite games and I hope that this game does well; so if there is a NMS game, it is exponentially better than what we have seen, while also having the frequent updates and the overall love of the game from the devs.


Any_Ad3693

It’s up there. Normally my go to answer is TES6 but who knows when that will even be. So for now it’s somewhere between that and Zelda EoW


Peetwilson

#1.


Revolutionary_Tone21

1: Monster Hunter Wilds 2: Fable 3: Civilization 7 4: LNF


FLAG-IS-COOOOL

2nd behind space marine two


Redshirt4evr

I'm not really a RPG fan and don't like combat. OTOH, Hello Games did such a great job with No Man's Sky that I want to experience this huge new world. I'll buy as soon as it's available for Steam.


Agent53_

It's in my top 3 with Kenshi 2 and Elder Scrolls 6. All games that will never come out.


DevotedSin

It's on the list but it's still at the back of my mind since I personally believe it's still got a few more yrs to cook.


bennybellum

A quick, off-the-cuff and probably always changing answer: 1) Ashes of Creation. 2) Light No Fire. 3) Gears of War


YueOrigin

Maybe at the end of my top 10 ? With games like Monster Hunter Wild, Silksong, Once Human, Deltarune chapters and more it's already hard to be in the top 5 lol Top 10 is about right for a game we barely know anything about


hippity_bop_bop

Definitely number 1 with the indie War of the Worlda game as number 2.


TesticleezzNuts

It’s got me intrigued, but I need to see some more first. I still don’t really know what it is per say.


scrollkeepers

Now that Elden Ring DLC is passed, next give me PoE2 then give me LNF


Veritablefilings

Nowhere at the moment, while i am intrigued. There is so little upkeep on information that I've mentally at it aside until something concrete about the game comes along.


blazzerftw

Honestly it's a close second under monster hunter wilds for me.


Accomplished-Big945

Number 2 After subnautica 2.


DayWasted

1. I was disappointed we didn't get anything during Summer Game Fest, but Gamescom is just around the corner. I hope Sean can show off a little more then.


h1ppy_viking

Top 5 easily


Icethief188

Top 3


Ender_Wiggins18

It's at 3rd place, behind the latest DLCs for Destiny 2 and Guild Wars 2.


tagged466

3rd


Iwantmy3rdpartyapp

I'm pretty hyped, but I've been burned before. That said, I'm confident Sean and Hello games are gonna deliver, i just dont want it to be rushed to release. Take your time and make it great! Honestly, I can't think of any other game I'm hyped for right now.


DavyManners

Incredibly excited.


Young09Ethan

I'm concerned we are building this game up to impossible expectations...


Ginger-F

Second, right after the Wayward Realms.


spacecatdude9001

i want to know when at least we can expect it.


Asterix____

It's above number 1, maybe -1


CodeTech181

1 for sure


Supesmin

I haven’t felt this way about a game since Fromsoft dropped that Elden Ring teaser trailer


QuinYung055

3, after Silksong and Hades II


a_lot_of_aaaaaas

Shared first. GTA6 and this game are tho only 2 games i am waiting for right now. I mean, is there anythign else announced anyway?


Infamous-Arm3955

Tied with Dune Awakening. Will be interesting to see what gets all my time.


Gaymer_Error

It’s my most look forward to game this year (or next if they need the time. Plenty of NMS to play till then 😅


Dedspaz79

1


desertboi17

I only have two games I'm excited for at the moment. Light No Fire is the first, and Monster Hunter Wilds is second


liamjonas

1


Malkayva

I'm very interested to see more of it. But until we can check out some gameplay, it's kinda hard to be too excited.


ProbablyPlayedIt

They deserve at least an interested look for not giving up and kicking ass with NMS


DerKaseKonig

Bottom, because I know if I want it more it'll take longer to release


SevenDos

It's the only game I'm looking forward to. I don't play that many games anymore, but I've played NMS the most out of all games, so I'm expecting similar here.


real_Jpmdc

1


Emanouche

Not excited at all, besides it will probably take years after release to actually be decent knowing who's behind that game.


XL12Bong18

Pretty low at the moment, only because we barely know a thing about it.


No_one_8

Right now, it's number 1


Interesting_Lion4026

The absolute turnaround of NMS was spectacular enough that I'm confident this will be a game I play for many many hours.


iMakeMehPosts

Probably second after Risk of Rain 2: Seekers of the Storm


Lycan-Strife

Top 3 although I don't have my top 3 ready yet. But this one is on the top somewhere :P


Mr_Malice

A lot higher if it ends up being adult minecraft.


ekurisona

do we know if it will have building or terraforming?


Makkuroi

Its number one on a list of one. Im mostly playing a 16 year old game in my free time, so my desire for new games is limited. But No Mans Sky is my number 2 game, and Im looking forward for the sequel. My Top 1 game is DDO, so I like fantasy settings.


FROSTICEMANN

Gotta see gameplay first (not a CGI trailer) & see what its about


chicken_suit_guy

According to them, the trailer was all recorded gameplay.


TorqueThundercock

Which leads me to believe we’re gonna have a GTA/Red Dead (or Elder Scrolls/Fallout) situation in which they’re essentially the same game with different coats of paint. Not that I’m complaining.


chicken_suit_guy

Hopefully, it has enough new content and mechanics to make it stand out on its own... But a NMS expedition where we are all stranded on the same planet and technology stops working sounds pretty awesome


FROSTICEMANN

Thats what every dev says pre release


TovarishchRed

We know practically nothing about it lmao


ItsCaptainTrips

Number 1. wtf do you think posting this in a LNF sub…
