Well, based on this:

I'd say they've spent the past nine years waiting for console tech to be able to support their engine. If this isn't a total bullshot reel, then from a purely technical standpoint BG&E2 is going to be fucking amazing.

It does look like a lot of fun already but can't help but worry that they might be trying to bite off a little too much. Just hope that it won't require another 9 years to fill in the rest of the content.

Looking at it from purely what they've shown, they've only started implementing the high concept. It's very pretty, and the tech looks seriously impressive if they're actually getting procedural sunsets via light scattering across atmosphere distribution and composition; plus the meteor strike looked very cool too, if not particularly, ah, impactful. Progressive planet scars over time, I imagine? Nice.
But multiple populated planets with actual architecture to explore combined with interlinked events and economies, actual story chains and the like -- well, it's a long way off. Let's not fool ourselves.
On a side note, I wonder what the specs were for the PC Ancel was using for that walkthrough. It must've been a beast.

Good grief. Whatever kind of game they're making here, the technology is certainly impressive.

Engine does not a game make, but yes, that is quite impressive. But it's not like we haven't been seeing similar stuff in Skyrim or Witcher. But it does look to be much bigger scale.

Hohoho, BG&E2 is a pseudo-MMO. A co-op online game that rigidly follows the open world Ubisoft game formula. Why is this called BG&E2? Every game doesn't need to be Destiny, f*cking Christ. The Games as a Service trend bubble needs to burst already.

And I can't see any Steam achievements, even though the description says
"Embark on this epic adventure in up to 4K 60 fps with improved graphics and audio, a new speedrun mode, updated achievements, and an exclusive anniversary gallery."
