Some interesting content in this one.

* Weapon cusomization (cosmetic) stuff is basically confirmed.
* In terms of size paraphrased: Each of our destinations, is probably about 2/3 the size of Halo reach. So far we have 4 confirmed destinations (Earth, near Russia, Venus, Mars, the Moon), and a set of smaller places, so we are talking at minimum double a halo game, possibly more. He also hints that it's dense content, but downplays the amount of exploration.
* That whole Vista scene in the Demo at the start is play space. Crazy stuff.
* standard narrative is going on, and you can jump off, or go back and revist spaces, etc
* He dances around flying spaceships...

Sounding more and more like a mix between Blacklight: Retribution and Borderlands.

I very much approve of this concept.

I watched this earlier, and the scale is taking a good while to sink in. It's so damn huge with just the confirmed locations alone. SO HUGE.

Made it through five minutes before the interviewer's interrupting comments and overclocked cadence became unbearable. Too bad, I was liking what Parsons had to say.

At least jump to the end

I think a couple of the best comments came at the end when they started answering Twitter questions.

Thanks for the heads up - I'll try it again.
