    Hey, I see a couple folks don't agree with me in a couple areas, or maybe heard another reviewer disagree with a take I had. Honestly, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this from either playing a bit yourself, or just from your opinion based on other reviews! I do like hearing your perspective

      @Kevduit How does the game perform for you? Because the main complaint I have noticed and from tech youtubers mainly is the game's optimization. Almost all of them have reported low performance on cards like 3060s, 1060s and AMD/Intel equivalent (even the Starfield RX6700XT variant that comes with the games has a bit of a struggle). Because performance is quite an issue with the game when most people can't or don't want to get an high end card just to get a stable framerate.

    Hey Kev, I know this is pretty different from your normal style of videos, and it obviously took a long time to write and edit, but if you wanna do this again for more games, I'd be really down to see more. Old games, new stuff, whatever, I really like the way you articulate and you obviously know your stuff with all the comparisons and examples to similar games.

      Not nesseceraly. You can make a very good RPG in a space theme, like Mass Effect. I prefer the fast travel here, cause I want to jump from adventures to stories, not being a space trucker sleeping on the job like a space sim... I have other games for that. And there is PLENTY of exploration in Starfield, in fact it's the most rewarding exploration in the industry.

    Kev,
    I have been an avid viewer of your content for years, and I have taken a lot of inspiration from what you produce. You are highly entertaining but informative, and your voiceover work is second to none. With this video, as always, very well done.
    Thanks to Starfield's ship builder, I have started a channel of my own that has received (for me) an unprecedented amount of attention. And, believe it or not, the vast majority of the feedback I've received has been very positive. I do not have the experience that you do, nor have I reached the same level of production quality, but for some reason, (most) people who watch my content seem to enjoy it.
    I have over 500 hours in the game now, with the majority of that time spent building and flying my own ships. I've gotten quite good at building ships, and have a lot of experience tuning ships for different roles. If you're still enjoying Starfield, and you need a ship that can get you through any space encounter on Very Hard difficulty, basically any of the ships that I have published build guides for would suit your needs perfectly. I would be more than honored for you to follow any of my builds and use them in your playthrough.
    Cheers Kev, and thank you, as always, for your excellent commentary and content!

And on top of that the landing zones have tonnes of structures to explore, like you said, caves, camps, etc. The only complaint I have in this game is the lack of emotions in npcs when I am holding a gun to their heads. Hopefully, Bethesda will work on this. While yes, modding will make this a game of the generations to come, the game in itself is awesome! And as always Kev, great job, thanks for the review!

      look the optimization debate is a nobrainer. The game demands performance of dystopian levels and it can't be excused. Why that is the case is another topic, most likely it's just their stubbornness in regards to their engine. Spending thousands on a PC and achieving "just" 60fps at 4k is horrible performance. In other games you'd get double or more.

    Look I loved my time with Starfield, but the planets were mostly the same 7 randomly set places and every planet felt like a waste of time once I found them all that I was just going from one dot system to the other dot system that I knew had an actual quest thanks to the internet.
    Space combat and ship building was garbage, the ship building was just a whole bunch of " YOU CANT DO THIS UNLESS YOU DO THAT FIRST!" and "YOU DID THAT FIRST BUT NOW THIS IS WRONG!" and ship combat was a lot of "5 guys team up on you while your allies sit around doing nothing, so YOU DIED"
    Fallout 3 I played for like 1000hrs, Fallout 4 I played for 800 hours, Fallout NV I played for 1000+, Starfield I played for 100 and I'm done with it once the main story concludes because we're not getting into spoilers here.
    Honestly, the story... was awful to me, it was great until a certain point and that is the twist, the twist RUINED the story because it takes your agency away as even if you don't want to do what the main quest wants you to do your companions are always "Well when are you going to do the thing you should go do? You obviously don't want to, but you're going to anyway, so why not do it now? huh? why not do it now? You doin' it now? LETS FINISH THE MAIN QUEST THE RIGHT WAY!! ALL YOUR COMPANIONS WANT YOU TO!! SO DO IT! !!
    SAY YES! YOU HAVE NO AGENCY! GOGOGO!
    and then I finished the main quest, despite my objections to the thing I was told I had to do, thanks guys you were a really big help especially you romantic interest who gave up on me for SPACE.

If they just ditched the obvious buzzword that is "1000 planets" and just did a solar system with actual planet to planet space flight and 4 or 5 handcrafted skyrim sized areas to play in the game would be 10000% better and probably actually been a 10/10 game.

    The cyberpunk levels of hype and the fact it was announced as an exclusive immediately put me off of this man and I'm glad to see I was right on it not at all living up to expectations. I mean it doesn't look bad don't get me wrong but it's just the same Bethesda formula but in space. Apparently this was in development for 8 years and the dialogue is on par with Skyrim and older fallout games that came out I believe more than a decade ago at this point. And I get that it's part of the charm I guess but I find it difficult to care about a story when the voice actors aren't really into the script or the writing isn't the best. And when you have games like red dead redemption 2 that were in development for similar times with brilliant dialogue and some of the best writing I've ever seen in a game it kinda makes you wonder what they were doing in that time. I know that's not the most fair seeing how starfield does have a massive map so I bet a lot a time and money was dedicated to that but even so one of the biggest issues with Skyrim and fallout (for me at least I don't know if anyone else feels this way) is that their stories aren't really fun to get involved with they don't really have that depth or value to them that other games have.(fallout new vegas was alright but thats just because you can be an evil bastard lol) The lackluster stories along with the combat that gets old around the 20th quest just makes these games such a drag to play. Who knows maybe mods and future updates will bring more to the game but it definitely isn't worth buying a console for lol. But hey I mean if people enjoy it they enjoy it to each their own I just don't see the appeal lol

      @@kye4216 my man the game was in development for 8 years and is basically just fallout in space. Not even I was expecting them to be that lazy and I have a very poor image of Bethesda already. It's just the same lackluster writing and story with a just okay game. Bethesda combat basically just boils down to pointing and clicking until an enemy is dead popping into a menu healing 4 times then moving on to the next enemy. Its serviceable yeah and if the story for any of their games was even half way interesting to me I could look past the combat but they always suck so I'm stuck with hours into a game I have no desire to finish. If that's your style of game then that's alright but you have to admit this is terribly mediocre for how long it was in development. The games alright but it's got so much holding it back for me on top of the fact I'm not gonna buy another fucking console to play a game that's essentially fallout 4 and the outer worlds if they had a big baby.

      its a completely different universe, completely different factions, dialogue system, locations, skill tree, enemies, weapons.

    The funny thing is that Bethesda fanatics have swallowed this garbage, and now justify it by saying that there is a filled world there that is interesting to explore. While the main problem of Starfield is just that this world is not interesting to explore, the integrity of the world is not felt due to constant screen downloads, empty planets, there is no need to do anything at all, because the main storyline can simply be run in 18 hours. Thanks to Bethesda for the fact that I can safely go through Fallout 4 and Skyrim (which are much better made initially with their spirit of exploration and discovery) with their thousands of modifications.

    This is the 4th review I watch about starfield. In each of them the game get always "defended" by some "accusations" people made and it's labelled a "good" game and for me these are huge red flags. A review shouldn't "defend" a game and AAA studio with huge budget and experience can't just release a "good" game and get praised, a good game should be their standard actually....
    P.S: this game didn't need 10000 planets, they should have focused on 10-20 planets and it would be ok. Most of these randomly generated planets are empty or feel "boring". This game isn't about space exploration like no man's sky but THEY focused on the "10000 planets" thing

    Technically the game is only instanced by worldspace borders because the coordinates are based on your ship, no clue why Bethesda tied the map loading to the ship and not the player, but yeah. Once the ship unloads, the game crashes. Hence why the worldspaces when you land are 8km by 8km with the ship in the middle. They are also connected despite what initial people tried to spread based on testing from an xbox lol. So technically, Pete Hines is right, you can walk on.

    I like how when you barely go over the limit of carrying items, your oxygen goes slowly down. But the more and more you carry the faster it drops, little details like that is fun

      That seems to be a controversial topic, haha. I've seen some people absolutely HATING it. I actually don't mind it too much

      @@Kevduit it’s not even that bad. There’s a medical item that lets you traverse farther in the hair and if you time it with the booster it doesn’t slow you down when overemcumbered. I rarely felt slowed down

    You and Fleekazoid are the only channels I can sit through a gameplay for this game.. everyone else is boring to watch
    Also listen to The Sims PC soundtrack while bouncing around in space/on the moon.. it's so... relaxing

    Honestly, what really made me like Starfield was 1 quest in particular. The side quest where you help the r&d department design their new ship and you have to sit in on their meeting and talk to them. I have never empathized more with a group of NPCs in my entire life.
