This game is perfectly summed up by the fact there's an adorable character travelling on your ship who is constantly asking for books yet there's no way to give her any of the 1000's of books you find lying around on your travels.
You can even find the exact books she asks for and can't give them to her, and she has a twin from another mother...and father in another quest line heh.
Yep. brought sarah to the second artifact after hearing how exciting it is for her. touch the artifact and everything, hoping to getting a response from sarah but nope. just the standard bog convo list like before.
succeded to convince sam's dad by only persuasion, hoping sam will recognize my abilty or praise or say "wow how did you manage to convince my stubborn dad". nope just the standard bog response to carry on the quest.
everything just feel half baked.
That's a pretty weird way to quantify a game's quality but yeah alright
@@irecordwithaphone1856Summed up, he said
isn't adorable she's autistic and her dad sucks.
"Did Todd Howard make a good game, or did he put all his points in persuasion and pretended he made a good game?" I spit out my drink!
In case you're an NPC, it's that second part.
Ah, the Zack Snyder method

He's really just become a salesman for a front huh. I only started playing Bethesda games literally in 2020 and feel like I came on during the crumbling phase
literally true though lol
These "It's TEN dollars more, so.. Seventy dollars in the garbage" and "Just kidding Starfield fans, if you do in fact exist" lines were delivered as gold.
I'm so excited for when Starfield comes out of early access in 3 or 4 years once the unpaid modding team has had their hands on it.
lol
I would like to hope so, but considering I've heard barely anyone talking about Fallout 4's modding scene, I ain't holding my breath.
Wow.
@@devon00789 There is still a big scene even if you haven't heard anything recently. 100+ mods have been released since last week per Nexus mod which is still quite decent for an 8 year old game. The subreddit for Fallout mods is still in the 1% of top Reddit communities. Sure, it's not as busy as it is in its peak and with Starfield just released, modders have migrated to that but there are still big projects underway for Fallout 4.
That's the strategy. It worked for cdpr.
“It’s everything you want and at every point they try to make it as annoying for you as possible” sums it up perfectly.
I was so annoyed and simultaneously bored that I gave up after 8 hours.
I originally thought I'd come back in a few years with lots of mods, but now I couldn't care less
Fortunately, I'm not so precious and fragile that everything has to work perfectly easily for me or exactly the way I expect at all times in a video game. There's plenty there to enjoy if you aren't so negative and childish that you're just looking for reasons to be annoyed.
@@TB-wvvvw you’re a big big boy such sophistication good stuff thanks for the comment
@@Entropic_Meat_Machine I had nothing but fun playing Skyrim and all of the Fallouts, and Starfield has been a very smooth and enjoyable experience for me at 4K. It's beautiful and runs great all the time on my AMD based hardware. I've never needed mods for any of the Bethesda games to enjoy them, though I added some mods in Skyrim the third time I played it just for fun. I'm not really tempted to add mods for Starfield because I like the way they made it. I don't know why you had so much trouble (assuming you've actually played the game) unless you're trying to play on very weak hardware, which wouldn't work regardless of the company that made it as these games are demanding. I don't have any special reason to favor Bethesda games except that I've honestly enjoyed them very much over the years and appreciate when other people skillfully make things I enjoy in life. I'm not a child trying to impress people by criticizing things I could never make myself. I'm a software developer in a different industry and know what hard work it would take to make those amazing games.
@@Entropic_Meat_Machine People who have played and enjoyed those games like I have (hundreds of thousands of us) know exactly where I'm coming from, and of course I'm not worried about what losers who are full of shit think about my comments.
I was NOT ready for such a great parody song. The life on mars parody was so good that I was watching on my TV, got up, logged into my pc, and opened youtube to find this video to tell you. Well done!
The "Life on Mars?" parody was absolute gold. Earned at least my subscription from that alone.
Same here lmao
same
Same!
I did the same !
I still randomly sing Todd Howard fancy shoes every now and again 😂 such a banger
If you don't belt out a fancy shoes whenever you see todd are you really a girlfriendreviews fan?
I start belching it whenever i hear people talking about broken games
@@alarmingamoeba5190 I sing the "Todd and the sweet little lies" song.
_”Our Todd is an awesome Todd, He games from Heaven…”_
John Denver is real quiet since Girlfriend Reviews drop that banger of a song, guess it’s David Bowie time to do the same now.
“Now open your menu and fast travel to the place. That only takes you to space outside the place. So you gotta open your menu and fast travel to the place…again.”
This is literally the entire game.
Shelby's rendition of "Life on Mars" is impeccable
It's definitely my favorite performance of hers. More Bowie parodies!
came here to say this, amaaaazing, genuine smile on my face while listening to that
i only know this song because of Jessica Lange singing it in american horror story :^)
Real, I was so busy jamming I couldn't even stop to laugh
For real! It's a work of genius, no lie
I feel like we missed an opportunity for “Ground Control to Mr. Todd”
Space Toddity
It’s so funny to hear the Outer Wilds theme play in this video! For those who don’t know, Outer Wilds is an actually good space exploration game
Also from Star Citizen
Your deadbeat father won't come back
i actually lost it when she said "noooooo, don't sit back down". perfectly, summed up my starfield experience right there. so relateable
How about landing on a planet only to take off again by mistake 😂 I did this yesterday. I literally yelled “FAHK”
@lif6737I’ve surprised myself with how many times I’ve done this. That moment of realization when you think “noooooo” just as the cut scene starts.
Peak Bethesda.
Sometimes I do sit back down so I dont have to walk through my ship to board 😂
Imagine getting mad at a game cuz u hit the wrong button lol.
The Outer Wilds soundtrack REALLY makes me want you guys to do that game!! One of my all time favorites.
The Outer Wilds is too complex of a game for inbreds though...
I hate that i'll never be able to experience that game for the first time ever again :( Why even keep going?
Wow I'm so glad you caught this, I thought it sounded super familiar. God this game was an experience for me, still think about it.
yeah WTF the music makes me think that they are familiar with it. Have they done any reviews on it? DID THEY PLAY IT WITHOUT LETTING US WATCH!?!?!?!
I loved that song but damn bro I played that game for 5 hours and felt like I got nowhere and I was just confused. I really, really wanted to like it, and thought I would, but it just did nothing for me.
When the Outer Wilds music kicked in around 7:43 I immediately thought of the bit in Harry Potter "How dare you stand where he stood".
Exactly! One of those games does its best celebrating the great mysteries of the universe, the beauty of it and the horrors; the insatiable curiosity of sapient life.
And the other is a heap of purile Toddslop that manages to make even it's more laudible hard sci-fi roots into an excuse for recycled content and unimaginative designs.
this is bizarrely the most honest review according to my experience I can find anywhere
So many people were defending it last month too lol, it's a mid-game
@@rundown132happens with any game people will praise a game theyre enjoying because of honey moom phase. But once it wanes ovee thry realize how flawed some games are even if it is still good to them
@@MrJbedo It would have been understandable if it was the Ol` bethesda fan boys doing the defense but they've added Xbox fans on top of it making it about their stupid console war, making it even harder to make a point across. "oh you don't like starfield? Must be a PSpony, TLOU2 bad game"
@@rundown132to me it’s more than that. I’d consider a mid game like a 5/10 personally and with starfield I haven’t finished it yet but so far I’d give it like a 7.5
@@rundown132I haven’t even played the game and I can tell it’s incredibly mid.
The ever-so-slight dig at using a song from Outer Wilds was genius. I noticed that light-hearted guitar picking almost immediately.
A vastly superior space exploration game in every conceivable way. Starfield wishes.
Not from outer wilds
@@tankbeast8480 uhhhh yeah it is. The song is called Timber Hearth. Song starts at the 7:42 mark
@@VinylBossGaming it wasn't made for outer wilds lol
@@tankbeast8480 i dont exactly follow ur logic. That song I'm talking about was a song that is specifically in the Outer Wilds OST, performed by Andrew Prahlow. Why are you saying it wasn't made for Outer Wilds?
"It takes longer to sit in the driver's seat of your ship, than it does to drive your ship, across the universe." Spoke the most to me 🤧🤧
Hearing "Outer Wilds" music in the background feels incredible, let's hope they do play it sometime in the future & try the DLC as well. No other game has ever impacted me the same way as "Outer Wilds".
Completely agree. Easily one of the best games I have ever played. the exploration is amazing. It is so perfectly designed. The ending had me very emotional. I thought about it in between playing. It was a whole experience that I wish I could do for the first time all over again. I can't think of many games that have had an actual affect on me like it did. Just perfect.
Same here
Matt has played it on stream but quit cause he didn’t like it :(
It’s such a shame we will never play it for the first time again.
I wish I could experience it for the first time again.
Shelby doing a life on mars cover made me a lot more giddy than I expected.
If war never changes than I want girlfriend reviews to never change either. They just get better and better
So they changed?
if they get better they must be changing. they'd be exactly the same quality every time if they never change. unless... what never changes _IS_ that they keep improving
Them harmonies tho lmao love when she sings
I watched a fascinating video about Nintendo's meticulous design philosophy for Tears of the Kingdom's open world to make sure it was engaging, interesting, and that players wouldn't just run in a straight line. They figured out how to make it so that you would discover things that you were interested in by yourself, but how those discoveries were actually in a planned out graph to move you towards the important story locations.
Bethesda on the other hand just spent the last 5 years procedurally generating terrain and saying "Yeah, that looks good enough I guess. Not that I have to worry that anyone's going to see it, because they're going to bee-line towards this one quest."
Its amazing that we treat Bethesda with the same kiddie gloves we use on single-developer indie studios, despite how much money and former talent they're sitting on.
Was it a GMTK video?
Love how you play music of a much more interesting space game in the background.
Man I miss you, Outer Wilds.
You took a lot of (deserved) shots at the game, but playing the Outer Wilds theme was the best one.
Yeah that almost crossed into cruel lol
I was excited when I heard it. Makes me want to play Outer Wilds again. What a great space exploration game
I’m unsure if it’s cruel to Starfield or a slight to Outer Wilds to even show up over a video of starfield. Probably both, but that is the MUSIC OF THE SPHERES you’re messing with. Do not besmirch it.
An actual good space game
@@IndustrialQueue I'm leaning on 'cruel' to Starfield. I don't know if it was intentional, but through that whole section of the review, I thought "Wow, I'd rather play Outer Wilds than this shallow, broken piece of overhyped, outdated designed piece of crap game." To me, it was a reminder that great games don't have to come with outrageous budgets. Budgets that serve the end product so superficially, like in graphics alone. Without a soul, the experience is hollow.
I've watched this about 6 times already for the Life on mars parody alone. Please keep doing what you two are doing!
I'll never forget the part where you help fix the eye. You go to Sarah and help her fix some stuff with a socket wrench. You'd think, any modern game would have you pick up the tool, and an animation would occur when you interact with the object. You'd see the character "fix" something. Well not this "Next Gen" game Starfield. You interact with whatever it is you're repairing. And a text box pops up saying, "you repaired the panel". A freaking Text Box in a Triple A, Next Gen Xbox exclusive thats come out in 2023. And its not the only time it happens either.
It truly is the "next generation role-playing game set amongst the stars"
I liked the text boxes, they give a Old RPG / DnD / Morrowind kind of vibe, I wished they used these a bit more often.
@@nico_6729 aren't there literally text based rpgs specifically for this? lmao
thats not really a problem
@@TotallyOKaYProductions compare that to baldurs gate 3 , which has hours of cinematics…
The fast travel/cutscene section sums this game up perfectly
Pretty much convinced me not to get this yawn fest disguised as a game
Oh my god...
@@_pkfire_you weren't buying it anyway. Also it's a great game.
Also you don't play a game for a 100+ hours if you don't love it. Don't care if they're doing it for their "job" IGN , etc didn't even do that, oh wait even that reviewer said he was doing a NG+ of it. Guess he loved it more than the score he gave it.
@@UA-camCensors yea it's the greatest 7/10 game I may never play 🤷♂️. I'll wait 5 years for the definitive edition and 100+ community mods before I play this snooze fest
@@_pkfire_5/10 really, hence "midfield" it can be fun sometimes but....as you see the loads of awful design choices greatly hinder it .___.
2 points, lies of Tod is your best song yet and that is an achievement in itself. Also huge appreciation to the small things Matt includes like Norman Reedus whistling poorly 😂 Love you guys
For the first time, I just pictured Todd Howard, at home, having a normal day, then seeing this come up on his YT recommendations. As a cold surge of fear runs down his spine, he opens it, and watches in horror as it turns out to be more negative and about Todd Howard than he ever would have feared.
Having the Outer Wilds music in the background just highlighted how awesome a modern game centered on space travel could potentially be and how we could all be better spending our time playing that instead.
I'm so glad you had the same thought I did and expressed it better than I could have.
Played that, need more, Starfield it is.
I just want them to review that game! Is that so much to ask?!
@@pliubumasspoiler alert, starfield is not it
You should try Elite Dangerous.
The lack of vehicles for planet traversal is such a travesty. A little buggy with bouncy physics would have been great fun and made those large areas fun to explore, as you have to find pathways through the environment.
I wouldn't mind the lack of vehicles if they just LANDED US CLOSER
The Life on Mars? parody was too perfect. I actually got goosebumps and I want a full version!
This channel is becoming an excuse to start a music career.
I'm all for it.
Always has been.
A creative excuse?
Second this, lol
More pleasure than an excuse
I mean the music career existed before the channel...
The shoe squeak at 2:07 was a nice touch
For those wondering, yes the husband did play Outer Wilds in a stream several months ago while the wife was out of town. It wasn't quite clicking with him so he hasn't returned to it since but I hope they do revisit the game again with the wife there to backseat. I really do think that it would be a great experience for both of them to solve the mystery of the game together!
I strongly second this. Would be great to see both of their reactions when they reach the end.
I was basically bullied into playing Outer Wilds because Skill Up named it his game of the year like 5yrs in a row and.... wow. Incredible game, unforgettable music, never been so thrilled to be bullied.
Thank you! That music caught my ears and I needed to know. I do hope he comes back to it
Yes please no other game will compare
@@KhorneDeth1I was bullied in the same way… I will say that after spending probably a combined 5 hours and being admittedly fascinated by it, I’ve now bounced off it twice due to just having a hard time pulling any strings far enough to have a true AHA! moment. Maybe I’ll get there on my third trip.
What she didn't explain about that fast travel section is that you can level all the powers to level 10. Meaning you have to do all that boring ass temple traveling 240 times.
And since they're tied to new game plus, there's no point in doing anything else in between because it gets wiped every 24 temples so you have to do them all in a row.
The more i hear about this game the more PS players seemingly dodged this by not getting it.
@@nielsmichiels1939😂 Keep thinking that.
Good thing is you can skip the temples and powers all together and it impacts the game zero 😆
@@nielsmichiels1939bought geforcenow for a month for this with gamepass. played it and cancelled all of it after that. the only 10 bucks microsoft will ever get from me
As somone with a ps5, but still played Starfield between Baldur's gate 3 and Cyberpunk's DLC... Yeah PlayStation only gamers aren't missing anything. Have fun with Spider-man 2, pretty sure that game is gonna be incredible. @@nielsmichiels1939
Damn you really reviewed a shitty space exploration game while using the soundtrack from the best space exploration game ever made. That goes hard

@@Tangatanga7373 That's, not how it should be? also not true, lots of indie games release bug free on PC, the reason we get a lot of bugged games, is the same reason console gets a lot of bugged games, triple A companies are lazy, and don't bug fix their games, because people will buy them anyway.

I wasn't expecting an honest review, but I was very surprised to receive it. The same thoughts came to my mind 10 hours later, when any hope had completely evaporated.
The use of Outer Wilds music makes me hope for an Outer Wilds video. And it reminds me of a better space game which hurts me.
Chefs kiss to The Outerwilds soundtrack used in this, thats my favorite game, and truly a grand space adventure.
They cut actually travelling to planets and replaced it with cutscenes. Congrats you made a fast travel simulator about space travel without actual space travel.
Sometimes I think i am wasting too much time in my life. Then I hear that a brilliant man like matt spent four days playing Starfield, and I feel better.
Difference is he is making a career out of it. Effectively paid to play Starfield for 4 days.
And paid to edit already repetitive content over and over. I feel for all the editors trying to cut together footage for games like this.
Trust me, you and most of us are still wasting time. Unless your goal is to sit on social media half the day and the other half is to play video games.
Luckily you have the option to stop and make a better life for yourself.
I think I have 7 days racked up. I wouldn't recommend it. Please send help.
😂
Outer wilds music, a 2019 game is getting nostalgic to me, I'll never forget the journey and the friends I made along the way. I already forgot what happened in Starfield.
I swear I’ve thought about Outer Wilds every single day since finishing it.
This video made me go on a David Bowie binge.
I thought Starfield was going to be game of the year, but instead I'm playing Cyberpunk for the 4th time and my friends are playing Baldur's Gate 3. Lies of P ended up being a bigger highlight in the Game Pass library than Star Field.
It’s always came off as boring to me.
Sadly starfield was just a meh game with some exciting parts. So many better games in just the last few months.
Oh man, i def shouldve got Lies Of P instead of Starfield. Damn.
Agreed, SF was to be a choosing one, but they joined the waste my time side of the force.
@@Trace153- That’s from Star Trek.
"Lies of Todd" is a certified classic.

it's pretty healing to see someone go this hard on the game
Hearing Outer Wilds music over Starfield gameplay is like, next-level shade that completely speaks for itself. It's one of the least flattering comparisons you could ever invoke.
As if the entire internet hasn't been righteously dumpstering this game since the week of release lol
I didn't hear that, but I did think I heard some Star Citizen..... which will go in the opposite way. Plenty of chairs to sit in though.
@@NormalSuitNickDude musta been asleep. Lol
@@NormalSuitNick Lying isn't the same as righteous. There are a lot of awful takes.
People were only harsh about this game during the release week, after that a lot of people were defending this game, calling it a great game after the first 12 hours or so. Maybe because people who hated it had already dropped it by then.
Was not expecting a insanely high quality david bowie cover
I honestly had the most fun with the ship builder and ground combat. I just wish all the best ship parts weren’t arbitrarily locked behind perks. I don’t regret my time with the game, but it’s gotta say something that I was immediately having more fun getting back into Cyberpunk for the 2.0 update, even though I did a full playthrough less than a year ago. Baldur’s Gate 3 is still my top contender for GOTY.
the ship builder is by far the best part of the game, if only there was actually more to do with your ship in the game...
I'm in the same boat. Spent 60 hours mostly making ships or saving money for parts. The combat is fun, but feels very retro. Once Cyberpunk 2.0 came out I haven't launched Starfield, even though I finished the whole game when it came out- and by that I mean getting all the endings, achievements, gigs, side quests etc. And yet the roughly 50 hours I put into the expansion were FAR more engaging than Starfield.
Literally my exact thoughts. Got Starfield on 6th of September, about two weeks later Cyberpunk’s 2.0 patch came out and a week later they released Phantom Liberty. I never looked back….
Playing outer wilds music during the review is just brutal. You just have to allude to that comparison to utterly destroy starfield xD
Starfield is a mile wide and an inch deep. Outer Wilds is the GOATED first person space exploration game.
Don't you mean the Outer Worlds?
@@TitaniumTomcatnah outer worlds is pretty mid
@@danoliver8989 I agree I couldn't even finish it.
@@TitaniumTomcat No, outer wilds. It released the same year as outer worlds and both were too stubborn to change their name. Outer wilds is absolutely amazing though. It's a time loop game where the only upgrade you ever gain is knowledge, but each bit of knowledge you aquire changes something significant about the gameplay. Please don't watch anything but the official trailer before playing it, as spoilering is equivalent to just skipping part of the game
Fun fact: David Bowie was born in 1947, so he'd have been 76 this year. Todd Howard planned it all along.
as always the best trustiest review is here. Putting like 150 hours into Baldur's Gate 3 right before trying Starfield with gamepass was WILD! All these issues felt prehistoric in comparison.
I also went straight from BG3 to Starfield. It was the weirdest imaginable whiplash.
@BlueRadium right yooo lol it felt lowkey offensive like I was being tricked or something lol being played by the game instead of the other way around lol
My god the life on mars remix was truly so well done and hilarious. Another banger !!!!
Teasing better things with The Outer Wilds music there... If I had a superpower it would be to be able to erase The Outer Wilds from my memory and play it again for the first time as many times as I wanted.
never stop doing this, your witt appeals to the cynic in all of us
I'm genuinely in tears... from laughing so hard. Your Bowie cover was simply masterful, 10/10. I had more fun with your 12 minutes of video than with my 100 hours of Starfield, without a doubt.
100 hours of, “This gets better sometime right?”
fr i was thinking the same.
That's the typical Starfield player. Let me hate on this game for some quick internet clout before I jump back on Starfield for my daily 5 hour play session.
I hear "Outer Wilds" soundtrack and I feel better, thanks.
The songs, the references, the music choices, the editing, the writing... *chef's kiss*
The Outer Wilds music really brings to mind what good space exploration and discovery looks like

The best part of all the space content in this video was when music from Outer Wilds started playing for some reason. Make a review of that masterpiece please!
"Outer Wilds", not "The Outer Wilds"
Please edit your comment to say Outer Wilds so that people don't accidently try and play The Outer Wilds instead. It would be a shame for someone to miss out on Outer Wilds because of a typo.
I do love in Starfield when my character ahs to climb over a table, get back off it, then walk around the room to loot a box
Oh wait thats Baldur's Gate 3
Lol, you had me, no psyche, never had me for a second. I haven't even played that game n never will because I it uses dice roll for things and immediately thought of Morrowind Mudcrab vs me in Armor with sword and still losing because Dice Rolls..😂
@UA-camCensors It be like that. Youll miss 95s like its Xcom. Then the AI will crit you 3 times and kill you. Dont bother raising people mid combat because AI will always single them out and kill them again.
Did you know how fun and engaging watching grass grow is
props for using the outer wilds music, the objectively best recent space narrative
Don't forget the fun mini game of having to make a captured ship your home ship to claim it, the undocking animation triggering automatically once you've done that and you having to frantically try to dock on your actual home ship again before it jumps away (because of course you forgot to power down the systems). And the limit of 10 ships really helps as well!
Or, stealing one off a planet and going into orbit with no option to change your ship afterward so you get ambushed by pirates who have ships you could slaughter with your actual home ship, but you get ripped apart because it's just a stiletto that you stole.
@@Tawleyn can you not land on Red Mile straight from the cockpit?
Then seeing the ships value of say... 30,000 credits, so you’re like “yes! Score! I’m bout to be rich!”, then land on a planet and go to sell that ship, to find out you first have to register the ship for say... 27,000 credits, netting you a cool 3K credits after all the OMG IM NEVER DOING THIS AGAIN!

This is probably one of your best videos and that's definitely your best cover, ever. So much fun. Kudos!

When that music kicked in I just wanted to fire up the OST.
ratio@HaloReachbetter
@HaloReachbetter Im sry you feel that way
@HaloReachbetter yeah, having to think about what to do to proceed in a videogame is boring to neanderthals who think Starfield is good gameplay
"Wide as an ocean, deep as a toilet bowl" - Socrates on Starfield
I think the best way to describe starfield is to keep in mind that for some reason the keybind to favorite a item is the same to jettison a item ( delete it forever)
Did they flog the QA team before they tossed them out the door?
😂
One of the best GF reviews in a while, top-notch humour
I love that you guys used, like, an entire minute or two of the music from Outer Wilds in this review.
I started thinking about it as soon as you mentioned The Eye.
Such a killer soundtrack, and one of my favorite games.
I just wanna say I'd kill for a GF reviews Outer Wilds. It's my favorite game of all time and is just an absolute beauty.
I loved it but it's so flawed
@@Lostjayyhawkhow so?
@@valiantpetra9300by flawed he is referring to his brain
@jeshuahoffmann Only flaw with that game is that it doesnt have voice acting. That'd be the only way to get even more people into it. Aside from that, there really arent any
thats what I thought when I heard the Outer wilds ost in the video
The Outer Wilds sound track speaks very loudly in this review😂
You know it's gonna be a good one when the video kicks off with a reprise of "Todd Howard, Fancy Shoes!"
Damn, using the Outer Wilds soundtrack to wordlessly massacre this game. I mean I'm still having fun with it, but what a brutal yet unspoken comparison.
Impressed by the Bowie rendition! :)
I love how you used tracks from Outer Wilds and No Man's Sky, two actually good games about space exploration
Starting the Outer Wilds music at 8:30 is just the cherry on top. An actual love letter to space exploration.
OMG that Star Citizen theme at 3:24 ! ! ! What a brilliant move of yours! :D
The Bowie cover was worth the price of admission
This song will forever be the Starfield Anthem
Nice for GFR to release a bonus video to accompany dropping another banger song
I love that this is one of my review places to see if I'll like a game cause she sums it up perfectly so many times
That was a VERY good pronounciation of hygge! I'm happy to hear it.
