      @OpoOnTheGo I'm not big on Dawnguard myself, I'm just saying that as an expansion of the main game's content it does what it sets out to do. It expands on vampires, werewolves, introduces a new Faction, race, weapon type, location, and biome. Compare that to whatever Shattered Space was with cut content, reskinned weapons, no player choice, limited playtime, and whatever else was wrong with it.

      Why? I myself gave up on them on the launch of 76. That fiasco told me all I needed to know. I had low expectations for starfield, and even those were not met, yet people still went and bought shattered space, or some people still believe they have the prospect to make amends with the community, after blatantly trying to exploit the one thing that keeps them relevant: their modding community. It makes me sick that they'd try not once, but multiple times. With Fallout 4, with Skyrim SE, and then introducing Skyrim AE which broke everything just so the could shove their paid mods in our face again.
      Starfield was meant to be their redemption after the insult that was F76's release. And yet it's their greatest failure. Why do people still believe in them? Why do people not boycott them and let them float into irrelevancy? I don't understand.

      In order for Starfield to get good Bethesda would have to do a complete and total overhaul as well as add tons of new good content. But Bethesda shows absolutely no signs of understanding their failures and if anything doubles down on their bad decisions. And of course I wouldn't expect them to essentially remake the game. So Starfield will forever and ever be shit and I am afraid TES6 will be even shittier.

The way a team works and interfaces with eachother is a big factor too.

    In just the first 4 minutes you definitely hit on the most significant issues plaguing Bethesda, by contrast with Hello Games. The ones on the forefront being arrogance and incompetence. We can look at games like No Man's Sky and Cyberpunk 2077 that had disastrous launches, yet through a ton of developer-player interaction and hard work, both titles pulled themselves out of the muck.
    BGS, however, is a lot like Artax in "The Never-Ending Story". We players are like Atreyu: no matter what we do to try and steer Bethesda out of the swamp, letting them know what WE want and how they can find their footing again, Artax sinks into the swamp nonetheless. Except in this situation it's due to unimaginable stupidity and self-confidence, and not a curse of sadness.
    Like, how is it that Fallout 3 only had a team of 80 and had all of their DLCs released within a year, yet BGS currently has 450+ employees and Starfield's baseline map took 8 months for release, and nearly a full year for just the FIRST DLC? How does a game that is 80% randomly generated map content take a full year to release a single expansion?
    You're right on the money, man. They're starved for content, effort AND talent.

    The problem isn't that it lacks content but that it lacks meaningful content. There's no truly unique weapons, no unique ship parts, no unique perks, etc. When I play Morrowind, dark souls or Fallout 4 I can start a new character and instantly visualise the steps I have to take for my current build but with Starfield I just draw a blank.There's just nothing to do other than starting the grind for leveling up.
    Of course from my perspective No man's sky isn't any better than Starfield because it's 100% procedurally generated.

    Personally in my experience I rate Starfield a 6 or 7 out of 10, I am aware that the game isn't perfect but I do agree with some of the stuff you put on the video, for me Shattered space ignited my curiosity to see what changed and try it out since I did the questionable decision to buy the premium edition before it even launched, and it was alright to a degree, my main theory why Starfield its on a subpar paradox of quality its because this is Bethesda's "New" universe set game in difference to Fallout franchise and the Elders Scrolls franchise, they both have a solid anchor at what bethesda can craft, but Starfield, being a new franchise/universe setting I can MILDLY understand the lacking aspects of the game to a degree but I wished it had more mechanics/features as most ppl say, for me Shattered Space so far its 7 out of 10 SO FAR, and since I was gifted 1.2k creation club coins I managed to get some new content so its entertaining to a large degree, I know I might get hit with some racket with this but I just hope starfield evolves in a way like no mans sky, or AT LEAST in a similar/vague rhythm of the engoodening in the future, I guess I have the trait of being overly optimism and yes I recognize there is bad stuff in the game (but again its my opinion) I just hope (even if it never happens) one day Bethesda pushes Starfield into the same tracks as No Man's Sky one day hopefully..

    While NMS is kinda impressive, it is to this day extremely shallow. You mentioned a lot of what it added, but it is very rudimentary. Story mode? It is a chain of "go to randomly chosen point - interact with a console - talk to NPC using radio to get a cryptic message - rinse - repeat" 50 times. Exocrafts? They are still cumbersome to use. Base building? It is breaking the game economy with pretty much infinite amount of resources and at the same time very tedious with awful surveying and wiring mechanics. Planets are still pretty much all the same. Sure, they have different tree colors and different hazard bar colors, but little past that.

      @@yttrxstein4192 I won't tell you that because I played NMS for ≈400 hours during last 2 expeditions. There is not really much in it.
      Hand-crafted content may sometimes look stunningly good (space anomaly is a masterpiece), but there is very little of it.
      Quests are pretty much all tutorials for game mechanics, and they are terribly outdated at that (mechanics in game outside quests work different from what quests teach you, especially scanning).
      UI/UX are abhorrent monstrosities. Who thought UI needs parallax? Why we can't transfer items directly between two ships/multi-tools? I can continue about this one for a long time.
      Content is often added and forgotten. As an example, living ships. Sounds like a great idea, end-game stuff... Except it is not. They are quite weak and extremely tedious to get and upgrade (who decided to put FOUR full day real time countdowns in a quest?), and they have very limited upgrades.
      Alas, Hello Games bit more than they can chew, and even after 8 years of updates NMS looks like it was done by people who never played a game. Any game. Including NMS. Because it is the only way I could possibly explain why it has so many problems.

Do you think that 10 year's from now when the modders finally make Starfield good is a reasonable timeframe?

    I believe it takes longer to release new material, partly because the graphics are of a higher standard; all dialogues must be recorded for all characters, and many assets with high-quality textures need to be created. With simpler graphics and fewer dialogues, it becomes much easier to produce more content in a shorter time.

    What Hello Games have done with NMS is such a stark contrast of philosophy when compared to the AAA mainstream. It feels like more and more studios are adopting this attitude where success is a given and adoration expected--then they'll turn around and insult the audience when their own failures come back to bite them. Bethesda, sadly, seems to be sinking into this whirlpool as well. Is it any surprise people turn toward studios like Hello Games when the alternative is so disappointingly toxic?

    Sean Murray's only true flaw is that he does not produce content faster than he already is. If I could sell a bit of my soul to allow him to double the output and eventually give depth to one or more existing gameplay mechanics, I probably would.

  • @adrianwerner1982
    @adrianwerner1982 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

    The problem is that Starfield is story driven RPG. It's bassically evolved Mass Effect. Everything not serving this angle in the game ends up hurting it. NMS can be updated so much because it has pretty much no story, so they just need to add fun replayable gameplay systems. With story based content you don't really replay it. These daya stuff like Wildermyth and Shadows of Doubt show how you can merge stories with procedural creation, but none of those were even announced when Starfield was starting.

  • @contessa.adella

    1:08 Spot on. Bethesda had their own forums for their game-world enthusiast for years…NEVER did anyone from the Dev team pop in to speak. The entire forum was just left to be managed by Stasi moderators. Beth did sometimes comment on Twitter…which was not even their platform. NOW Beth runs a Discord channel for fans, but it is a fast scrolling site of brief one-liners and goof comments…not a chat space for particular topics or serious threads….AND you’ll not get actual Beth staff show up…only moderators and middlemen, no one who actually “develops” games. In short…Beth doesn’t care and doesn’t listen to YOU. Their games are Todd’s personal playground for his dream and if you don’t like it…tough. It takes a huge backlash of critics months to persuade Bethesda to change anything and they simply continue publicly citing, and reinforcing to themselves, just how great their products are regardless. I say this as a huge Skyrim fan… Example: Just look at the huge Fallout 76 roll out debacle…How long were Beth in denial, how long before they made serious corrections…even in the face of tremendous critic scrutiny. SMH.

Second off I can tell you’re also passionate about this subject and that’s a good thing! I’ve read both your comments in full and wanted to say that you make some good points. This was a good read and I appreciate you!
      And yes I agree, it doesn’t seem like Bethesda listens to us. Feels like we’re just an ATM for whenever they need to use us for some quick cash.

    And this works for NMS because of the way they changed a bad game (with many missing features) to a good game. Can you see this way with Starfield?

    Studios with 100s of employees are a huge red flag for me nowadays. Too many chefs in the kitchen. When you have such a massive team size it takes longer to come to consensus about things and you'll be revising systems dozens of times. I think Bethesda would be better off if they narrowed their scope massively and laid off half their staff.

    I exclusively play NMS on the playstation 4 with my VR headset - roughly a hudnred 100h over the course of two years, which doesnt sound much, but my setup is always a bit clunky...but when I get time to play, I GET LOST IN THIS GAME! I havent even finished the main quest, I just build, explore and soak in the atmosphere of NMS.
    Just a hundred hours but I can recount every adventure I had vividly and smile, because it was so awesome - from toxic wastelands with radiation storm, and I build an underground shelter to have a nice smuggling route to the outlaw station above me, insane space fights in VR, ground combat with the sentinels and and and...
    And starfield doesnt offer any of that.

    The fact that people are still somewhat excited for the next ES game is crazy. The bar has raised so drastically and Bethesda had every opportunity with SF to show us they can keep up and they literally couldn't have failed harder. The next ES game is going to be so abysmally shit that I can't wait to see the reactions.
    Also on the NMS vs SF comparison, I find it hilarious that a multi-million dollar AAA studio, backed by a multi-billion dollar company couldn't produce a fraction of what an indie team did like 8 years ago. BGS is creatively bankrupt

    Step 4. Add meaningful content (mechs, space station building)
    Step 5. Free updates like no mans sky.
    Step 6. Comeback story.

    10:10 Even compared to a questline/combat driven game, cyberpunk, it still is a flop. What are the excuses of Starfield fans?? Do they say "well, cyberpunk isn't a SPACE game". How about Mass Effect then? (I haven't played it) Does Borderlands: The pre-sequel have enough space to count? Eve Online? I was disappointed in the Outer Worlds, but it seems better than Starfield.
    Yes, I haven't played Starfield, but I'm not about to get led down this road:
    - You haven't even played it, how do you know you don't like it?
    - OK you played some and quit, but if you finished it THEN you'd like it.
    - You finished it and still don't like it? Well, if you finished it, you must have liked it!

    I just don't get how No Man Sky's space ship travel can be so much better than Starfields and NMS released a while ago too. My disappointment in starfield hit when I wanted to fly off in a spaceship and got a loading screen instead. And we all know how excessive the loading screens are just to travel around.
    Todd said they had waited a long time to make starfield because they didn't have the technology. They clearly still don't have that technology.

      It's basically just a bunch of ideas loosely tied together, but there's no cohesive structure.
      NMS is a good comparison, both games have almost the same ending, but NMS understands that you want to keep all your cool items, bases and ships.

    Haven't played Starfield and have no intention to so I don't have much to add here. I did play No Man's Sky for about 10 hours a couple years ago because of the Internet Historian redemption video. I can appreciate the effort Hello Games put in even though it's not my kind of game. I bought it mostly as an act of support.
    Oblivion Run is nearing its end I'm afraid. About 80 hours in, did most of the fun stuff, about 50 Oblivion Gates and I'm as OP as I'm gonna get. Over 100 points in Spell Absorbtion and Damage reflect on one outfit, over 100% chameleon on the other. I did roleplay as a good character so no DB, Thieves Guild or anything else that gives me infamy points unfortunately.

    I think Starfield suffers from what most AAA games suffer from and it's "too many cooks." Too many hands in the pie. When Hello Games started, they were a single dev team with a common goal, but once an IP or company gets big like Bethesda, everyone wants a hand on the wheel but, no one wants to take responsibility. Hello Games had to take responsibility, because there was no one else to point the finger at.
    Despite what we think, creator's tend to thrive in strife, not in peace. Because when you're a big cushy CEO owned by a much larger company, nothings on the line anymore. Most people don't innovate because it's fun, they do it because they need to survive. Why else do you think Bethesda's gotten away with using essentially the same engine for almost 2.5 decades.

      I know what it's like to work on a creaky code base. The code base does its job, but doing anything with it is 10x harder than working with well maintained code. I have not seen Bethesda's code, but Starfield is pretty indicative of the difficulty of doing a 2024 game on Bethesda's engine. It can't be good.

I believe that Hello Games' of No Mans Sky basically ruined Bethesda's Plans for Starfield in Bethesda was hoping to create Starfield in the Image of No Mans Sky before Hello Games ever made No Mans Sky!!!! Basically No Mans Sky Beat Starfield to the Market while Bethesda was basically making Starfield into the image of No Mans Sky before Bethesda had to change their plans!!!!! No Mans Sky Is Far More SUPERIOR than Starfield!!!!
