Can't wait. I needs. @_@

With regards to the IGN video, though, at around the 18:36 mark when he's on the station, does anyone else get the impression that Sean was trying to coyly hide a proper view of whatever's beyond the massive ceiling to floor viewport in between the two ramps? He turns the camera towards the left, i.e. towards the ramp in that direction, though not far enough to look towards the actual doorway at the end of the catwalk, then very quickly turns to the right to head up the other ramp, all without lingering on the viewport at a proper angle to really look inside. Keeping in mind that the majority of Sean's camera movements in the video have been pretty slow and measured. =P

Might just be me. But judging by the curving lines beyond the viewport visible at around 18:42, the chamber is clearly massive. o.o

What if there are apartments in there that you can rent? Then resources also become a way of staying comfortably on a planet while you explore.

It's a possibility, but I don't think they're going to be doing anything too extensive when it comes to player housing, at least not at launch; a prior interview suggested that when they were figuring out what they would focus on with the resources they had (the features they would develop, the ones they would set aside for 'hopefully later,' etc,) they wanted to focus on encouraging the player to remain on the move, and not to 'settle down' in a given spot. While Murray admitted that there were those who would doubtlessly do so anyway, they weren't including things like player-built structures at launch because they didn't want the player to necessarily feel tied down to just one planet or solar system. So not super certain apartments are going to be a thing, barring maybe a spartan save point and storage locker with a bed.

I actually wonder if the chamber has anything to do with the Atlas, the Sentinels, etc; the stations may be build by the same organization that created all that.
