  • Starfield reviewed on PC and Xbox Series X by Dan Stapleton.
    It’s never a great sign when someone recommends a game on the grounds that it gets good after more than a dozen hours, but that’s very much the kind of game Starfield is, and I do recommend it. There are a lot of forces working against it, and the combination of disjointed space travel, nonexistent maps, aggravating inventory management, and a slow rollout of essential abilities very nearly did it in. It was the joys piloting a custom spaceship into and out of all sorts of morally ambiguous situations in a rich sci-fi universe that eventually pulled it out of a nosedive. I’m glad that I powered through the early hours, because its interstellar mystery story pays off and, once the ball got rolling, combat on foot and in space gradually became good enough that its momentum carried me into New Game+ after I’d finished the main story after around 60 hours. Like Skryim and Fallout 4 before it, there’s still an immense amount of quality roleplaying quests and interesting NPCs out there, waiting to be stumbled across, and the pull to seek it out is strong.

      Sure, but this doesn’t change the fact that in Australia there are 48 million kangaroos and in Uruguay there are 3,457,380 inhabitants. So if the kangaroos decide to invade Uruguay, each Uruguayan will have to fight 14 kangaroos.

      Not going to lie I'd have dropped the game immediately if it was like NMS or elite dangerous. You have to change planets so much it would make it 95% travel. That would be the worst thing they could have done. The way it works is perfect. You have to ask yourself are you one of the very few players who committed to never using fast travel in TES or Fallout? (Also an option here). Everyone says they did. But in reality that makes for a boring game most of the time

      ​@RuTube981 it's a design choice, games with maps often lack what feels like natural exploration
      BGS games don't have this problem as much, and if we look at Skyrim the one thing it did best was the sense of immersion with exploring
      Big reason why it has that legendary reputation
      When games have maps, it just feels like the map is guiding you to what you want to find
      Rather than the own players curiosity, or just stumbling on something and being surprised by your discovery.

      Funny how everyone shits on IGN for their terrible reviews but when they give an an actually great game a biased review it fits the sony boys and people who haven’t played it’s narrative. 7 is a terrible hot take and player numbers across steam Xbox and PC overall don’t lie. You are truly a BOT if you think this game is a 7.

    Loading screens kills it.
    Loading screens every time when travelling, when lifting up ship - it's a cutscene, not fpv.
    When opening some doors - loading screen.

    My question, probably to all reviewers who had review codes and sunk those 60-70 hours in, ready for the embargo lift, is will you still continue to play once released or completed the main story? Despite the NG+, does it have that much life left?

    This game has some serious outer worlds* vibes.

    • @jobin140
      @jobin140 9 місяців тому +51

      its because the devs of outer worlds made the first 2 fallout games and New Vegas. The studio Obsidian is like a smaller Bethesda Softworks, with a bigger focus on choice. Bethesda Softworks focus more on scope. The 2 studios have a history of working together as well. So Outerworlds borrows elements of Bethesda games and vice versa.
