Since then, the community has continued to grow, with many seeing a tremendous jump in numbers due to the highly-anticipated <a href=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/guides\/how-to-get-starfield-early-access\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Early Access launch<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, now that the game is finally set in motion, Starfield&#8217;s director, <a href=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/starfield\/hope-starfield-is-as-polished-smooth-as-todd-howard\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Todd Howard<\/a>, made his way over to the popular subreddit to thank the fans for their support that has inspired the team over the years. He also believes that Bethesda has &#8220;gaming&#8217;s smartest fans,&#8221; given their dedication and willingness to bring out new ideas on the forum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n    <blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:316px\" >      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Starfield\/comments\/165kcki\/from_all_of_us_here_thank_you\/\">From all of us here, THANK YOU<\/a><br> by      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/ToddBethesda\">u\/ToddBethesda<\/a> in      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Starfield\/\">Starfield<\/a>    <\/blockquote>    <script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.reddit.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fans were quick to comment on Howard&#8217;s appreciation posts, expressing their admiration for his work and the game in general. And, of course, a ton of fans are gearing up for Starfield&#8217;s launch, as many are counting down the hours and the loss of sleep they&#8217;ll likely have after its release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reddit user NokstellianDemon made an intriguing discovery on the subreddit itself, indicating that the forum started on the same day as the Early Access debut. It was almost as if the creator had known the game was meant to be released seven years later, and now it has come to full fruition in 2023. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n    <blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:316px\" >      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Starfield\/comments\/165ryw6\/the_starfield_subreddit_opened_on_sept_1st_2016\/\">The Starfield subreddit opened on Sept 1st 2016.

This1DoesntMatter chimed in on this redolent train by looking at one of the first leaks of the installment in 2015, where it was simply known as &#8220;Action RPG&#8221; in space.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n    <blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:500px\" >      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Starfield\/comments\/16617sv\/weve_come_a_long_way_when_did_you_first_hear_of\/\">We\u2019ve come a long way.
