My views? I find it silly that Bethesda-Proper tries to compare the DLC to Far Harbor, despite the key staff that made Far Harbor good... not being a part of this game. ES6 is some strange concept that supporters will claim is a Unicorn; anybody with a nose will tell you the Unicorn is a dead horse (after they stop gagging), and anyone with eyes and ears will point out how the unicorn has a swarm of flies nesting and feeding off of it. There's *Certainly* "Hope" for the game, but it's hope held by the foolish. Microsoft *Needs* to outsource the Zenimax IPs they purchased, before they're dragged into a swamp of Complacent Incompetence like Halo was.
If I had to guess, the reason why Andreja doesn't offer much to the DLC narrative despite being directly connected to the setting is because Bethesda doesn't want to lock people who had her die in the main quest out of content. Which is incredibly lame and lazy as hell, but also in keeping with how the rest of the game is designed.
That's an interesting theory! My guess is that House Va'ruun was one of the initial factions in the base game, and the content was cut so it could be sold back to consumers at a premium.

They definitely aren't slept on. They've been in the industry for 28 years, a lot of their focus has been on making isometric RPGs which have never had mainstream appeal for the most part.

If you are old enough to remember when Microshaft had a complete stranglehold over the operating system market, you already know why. They want to bring back the good old days when they had a monopoly. The problem with that is, they think the same tactics that got them the monopoly in the IBM PC market will work today. The end result is we get a bunch of absolute crap games, and Microsoft gets to write off hundreds of millions of dollars. If the tax system was rearranged into what it was when America was starting to become great to a lot of its citizens, Microsoft would be dead right now.
The fact they compared this game to Skyrim and Fallout shows how delusional Bethesda really are now. They dropped in quality so much. Starfield is HORRIBLE to its very core
Here we have a human civilization that has been developed in isolation. Nobody in the settled systems know the location of their homeworld. You would think they have developed their own means to travel around the stars but apparently they go to the settled systems to shop ship parts from stroud eklund. Such a huge miss in creating something unique and meaningful, an anti-climax. Neither do we get new game mechanics like space station building or new skill traits that can be aquired by interacting with the varuun culture. It’s as lame as i predicted. I feel that the Bethesda team is lacking leadership with a vision, antention to details and an understanding what made previous titles that popular. This is not the way to keep the fan-base commited. It recembles the stratefy of The Creative Assembly and the Total War Series, most of the commited total war fans abandoned their later titles and even the online community is now dead.

"DLC doesn't lack content for the price that it costs" Uh, it does exactly just that. For $30 this should've been damn near a expansion in terms of content. Remnant 2 has $10 DLCs that have more dialogue and story than the entirety of this slop. For $30 you can get all of the Remnant 2 DLC currently and have WAY more content, when it comes to weapons, armor, story, etc. BGS had a full year to try and make this worth $30 and they screwed it up. They didn't even fix most of the QoL concerns players had with the game. At this point I'm keen to think that BGS has pretty much given up on Starfield without outright admitting it. The entire writing in Starfield makes FO4 look like a damn Spielberg flick in comparison. Really hoping BGS doesn't screw up ES6.

12:50 I don't know if you are just misremembering, but Fallout 3, 4, and Skyrim did not "virtually let you so anything" They had tons of NPCs that you couldn't kill. I don't usually glaze New Vegas, but that is the only Bethesda Softworks game where you can actually just kill everyone (other than Yes-Man, which has an in-game explanation). Makes sense since BGS didn't develop it.
I get what you’re saying but I definitely think you had more freedom. Maybe not as much as NV but definitely more than Starfield It’s been a couple years since I played Skyrim but Fallout 3 you could at least kill most NPC’s in a settlement right? Like you could walk into Megaton, kill the sheriff immediately. Go up to the bar and kill Burke. And then save the town or detonate the bomb. All without talking to anyone. The game let you fail quests before you even started them by doing stuff like that. You could at least kill most of the town if you wanted.
Trouble is I played witcher 3 goty and cyberpunk 2077 and red dead so I know a shitty game when I play one its boring soulless drivel bethesda are gone now
It is vital that Bethesda does not listen to criticisms of their games. People who claimed that they were Fallout 4 gamers but were not persuaded Bethesda to create an online fallout game. They then did not buy Fallout 76 and criticised it even more than they had criticised Fallout 4. This wasted 4 years of development time. If Bethesda had not listened to their critics then we would now be playing TES 6 and Fallout 5. I like the procedurally generated quests in Starfield because they ensure that I will have new quests to try until Fallout 5 appears in 2032. I am pretty sure that TES 6 will have 100% handcrafted quests but think that given the fact that the starfield universe is huge, procedurally generated planets were unavoidable.
I knew the DLC existed, but when i wanted to explore and saw the space station, I was filled with dread that I remember I bought the Premium edition. I expected like ..maybe a weapon. Holy moly, was I robbed lol
Regarding the Dual quest, if you drug them both and come back later they have a pretty long conversation. They both apologize for each mistakes, addict says he'll get help, other brother says he will never stop helping his brother.
Your evaluation is the same I would have formulated. So, now I don't need to do it :) Now, Starfield is something to debate. I played 761 hours. Some things I like, some I don't. But in general I feel Starfield is an unfinished game somehow. The first release (content) feels like a scraped version of what the game aught to be. With the release of Shattered Space I am convinced this content was originally supposed to be included in the base game. Shattered Space is not a bad idea. It's just badly directed. At least it adds some custom areas you can revisit. But looking at games like Baldur's Gate (and even Mass Effect trilogy) Starfield is way behind. A galaxy with a thousand planets demands a LOT. It didn't deliver. I think Bethesda 'ran out of money' and decided to release the game as is. Most content has no connection to the rest of the game. This is pretty frustrating. As you mentioned Andreja need a much larger role in Shattered Space, but she is more or less just following you, giving a few comments now and then. I'm pretty disappointed about Starfield. I had the hope this game was the one to replace Skyrim and Fallout 4. But I was just bored after a while. Especially before they added the vehicle (Mako...). Maybe Bethesda can work harder build on Starfield over the years and make something good that lifts the game. The template is there. We just need the spooky atmospheres, the deep characters and 'the sexy angles'. Starfield is BASICALLY not a bad game. It's just too scraped. The idea is good. The thought of parallel universes is a sci-fi classic subject. What annoys me a bit is that I actually bought a brand new SSD just for this game.
Bethesda could have used Shattered Space as an opportunity to try and save at least a SHRED of their reputation. This DLC isn't terrible, but asking $30 for it is ridiculous because this faction quest line obviously started as cut content from the base game. Releasing it as FREE content would have been the best move, but then they'd have pissed off all the idiots who got suckered into the "premium edition" and "season pass".
The people who bought the premium edition and season pass deserve to be parted with their money. I didn't even pre-order SOTE, even after Elden Ring was so good.
On my Xbox Series S Starfield collapses every 45 minutes to an hour ... this can be saving or going through a loading screen. No Shattered Space is even worse, indeed in effect unplayable. It literally took me a day to get onto the Va'ruun home planet. 💩 If anyone is having the issue, it is a KNOWN FAULT which Bethesda says it'll get around to fixing some time ... What? The answer appears to be to disconnect you console from the internet, this stops it collapsing. Frankly, it's disgusting and Bethesda are once more 101% out of order 😠😠😠
I'm on XBOX Series X and performance isn't much better. I've had 3 or 4 crashes, and lots of FPS slowdown especially in the main city. Part of the problem could be my console is just long overdue for a cleaning. When Dragon's Dogma 2 released on PS5 I had similar crashing / overheating problems. At first I thought it was the game, but then after I cracked my PS5 open and cleaned out all the dust, it worked perfectly. I'd definitely recommend opening up your XBOX console and spraying out the dust buildup if you haven't done so lately.
I just take comfort in knowing I'm not the only one who feels like this. It feels like you post anywhere the games issues you just get "it's not for you" etc.
Far Harbour is crap. Binary story choices, boring locations miles apart, garbage characters, and the instigators of the whole story are nappy-pushers. It is not a role-playing experience, it is a walk through someone else's story and pick one of four different ways to say yes experience. If that is the best Fallout 4... well, yeah, that is a true Disney Wars experience. The best of it is still hated and vilified by many.
House Va'Ruun is a significantly less interesting version of Morrowind from 2002. The only reason it had mystery and intreague was because there was basically no information on them. Now that the DLC is here, they lost ALL THAT. This is what is the future of Elder Scrolls, Fallout and everything else Bethesda touches. Boring, safe, easy and barebones. Goodbye Bethesda. Watching you fail your way through time under Microsoft will be very amusing
Tane as a follower ticked me off because i spent a good 5 minutes investigating the camp for that old fat turd to then investigate as well. Bethesda wasted my time when they could have just had him figure it out instead. I felt disrespected. Why am i looking for clues to find him if you're going to have this other guy just know. I want to solve puzzles like that, not be guided so poorly
I think the fundamental problem with Starfield base game is the conflict of core gameplay mechanics, especially with respect to NG+ The game actually functions fairly well as a looter/shooter even without the Fallout VATS system. The issue is the terrible decision that was made to make you lose all your stuff when you go to NG+. In order to organically progress XP, skills, and Star powers, you are forced to go into NG+. However doing so makes you lose everything, all your weapons, suits, ships, outposts, resources, credits, etc. And the Starborn suit and ship you get for each NG+ are complete GARBAGE compared to normal gear.
why would you play NG+ with all your stuff, it's one of the few things in Starfield worth doing (far worse than their prior games) but playing the game again and having no loot collection, ship construction. sure it's busy work , but without it a SF playthrough would be even more dull You would have already done the Quests, got the loot,seen the POI's, so what would be the point in doing it again for a game with no real RPG , Choice elements and just more spongey combat. SF is a one and done, one i've finished it, i'm never going back to it
Bethesda never lets you kill important NPCs which I always didn't like however there is a game that did I forgot what it was call made by obsidian where you can murder everyone it was a pleasant play through I had when I found out. Some NPCs are so annoying and when I can straight up just get rid of them it's a masterpiece. Bethesda mods made by modders is the best thing so I can just break the quest and get rid of them
The writing/lore/world building is so generic when they could have used the opportunity to have a story with some mystery and intrigue, some actual science fiction instead of more reskinned fetch quests and forced meaningless options leading to an equally meaningless conclusion.
It’s just so crazy to me how much of a downgrade Starfields base game and DLC is from Fallout 4 and it’s DLC. As much criticism as Fallout 4 got it’s still WAY better than Starfield. A roughly 100 man dev team made FO4 compared to the 400 plus dev team that made Starfield. Yet Fallout 4 feels like it has way more content than Starfield and was developed in half the amount of time. I think over the last decade BGS has lost a lot of the better devs.
Isn't this missing the main point? No one wanted more starfield. We wanted starfield to be better and to be the game we wanted it to be. Less loading screens, more alive world, fix the broken and half passed quests etc etc. Even if the dlc was great it's stil one minor piece of an overall disappointing game. I keep hearing people say there aren't many new weapons. Who cares? Weapon diversity was about the 160th thing on my list of why starfield sucks.
If elder scrolls 6 flops theres no coming back. I’m willing to bet long lasting fans are banking on it being a good game and if not ? i can’t imagine them having much of a player base surpassing that entry. Also I was 13 when I got Skyrim. I’ll be in my 30’s by elder scrolls 6…
As long as Emile is the lead writer/designer things will not get better. He's failing as a writer with overly inflated dialogue that makes you want to skip it. And he's failing from a design aspect as well. For example, most people missing the companion is absolutely a failure of design. Just look at that interview he gave recently to see how far up his own ass he is.
Last game I'll ever buy from Bethesda till they fire the front office at least. Pretty much the only person that works there that deserves to keep their job is the janitor, and that's questionable. The entire studio is hot garbage anymore.
The dlc sucked.but when you walk back to the brothers apartment you will find them actually having a conversation together on the front porsche where they make up things with eachother. so drugging them both was the right choice indeed. i think it was pretty well done when i found them having a convo. when you talk to them though, they are very hostile and wont be gratefull for it. that was weird.
Wooooow! Another yter with a suuuuper original take! This is amazing work! All yall fools are so cookie cutter anymore, it's not even funny. Must be sad to have to follow trends to feel anything nowadays.
It blows my mind that more people don’t understand this. We have people calling Starfield “trash” and then praising mindless linear slashers with no story and pukey colors (Like Elden Ring) as “masterpieces”. Wild.
I went south east of dazra and found a strange spot where the game loads a lake then it disappears abruptly 😂 definitely probably used that procedurally generated map concept again
if the company threw children at the dlc andput this out then the company/todd doesn't care about quality. why would it care about quality anywhere eles?
Its wasnt that damn bad and this is coming from someone that loathes Bethesda games but loves Sci-Fi. The final mission was horrible. Their engine isnt built for what they tried at the end. The constant crashes upset me more than anything else.
So for those of us that want SCIFI FPS RPGs what the fark do we do? There are NO others outside of Outer Worlds, and it's extremely mid and isn't moddable. Bethesda need competition. Badly. Doesn't help that they are woke either.
It is Unbelievable how far Bethesda has Fallen. What's wurst is they don't See it. I don't want to say I've been lied to by Todd Howard, But I was surely was Miss led more times than I care to admit. I can No longer trust Todd anymore(,it just works )also I have very low expectations on up coming Bethesda games.
Again and I'll keep pushing it. Your better off modding starfield into The star wars complete conversion overhaul. Adds aliens worlds and makes it a better star wars game that outlaws. Even adds some planets from the star wars universe. Though the planets themselves are simple images of said planets like Coruscant or Felucia with that planet being the closest. oh and actually turns NPCs into other alien races that have facial movement.
I’m so tired of everyone following the rest of the herd, I loved the dlc and it completely re ingnited my feeling for this game,in 2 weeks and 1 patch update everyone will change their tone after they see 1000 ppl say it’s good
Lmao.. Everyone hates it.. Cope harder.. Game is trash.. If you like it that's fine.. Have fun.. But dont whine and cry because everyone else hates it..
Nobody is telling you what you can and can't like. If you enjoy Starfield then that's good for you, but coming from Bethesda and for 30$ people expect more "Umph" with their DLC after all of their games before having massive hours long DLC releases before. Mournhold, Solstheim, Shivering Isles, Point Lookout, The Pitt, All the New Vegas DLC (even though Beth didn't make those) Dawnguard, Dragonborn and Far Harbor. The company is capable of making amazing things, yet they have chosen to be stale, lazy and overhyping their reskins to sell copies. They took too many lessons from Fallout 76 when going back to making singleplayer games and it's biting them now. It's fully deserved and this company needs to learn these lessons so they can go back to making good games instead of lazy slop that's "good enough."
I bought it and im still playing it but im struggling to get through it man, i was in the middle of my 3rd play through of cyberpunk/phantomliberty and im seriously itching to get back to that or try the new diablo4 xpac 😅
What most haters dont know is there is a companion (once you beat the expansion, and go to the bar with the overlook section over the city, at one of the tables there is a old man who wants to travel with you) in Shattered Space and random encounters like the one where you see people in a sort of disaster relief tent set up like in those zombie games and shows wondering where their food is coming in so they dont die.
The DLC is great! I do agree with the $30 price tag. It's far too short to ask that much. Dawn of Ragnarok was $30 and it offered a lot of hours of content.
No it's not, and there's no way you have played this full DLC. I stream this game full time, and I still haven't finished it. Just another creator trying to jump on the "I hate Starfield" train for clicks. You most likely spent more time making this video than actually playing the DLC.
I completely agree with you. It feels like I’m playing a different version of the game. It overwhelms me with interesting quests, massive dungeons, and tons of fascinating places to explore. Last night, I found a secret cave where I had to drill through walls and find wooden geese. In that cave, I found a new weapon - a nail gun "Auto-rivet". I’ve already played the DLC for about 20-25 hours, and I still haven’t finished it.
@@SistaCitizen This is "Misthaze Cavern". It’s located to the right of the Rift. To the northwest of "MAL'EEM DAM", there is an industrial pipe. From there, you need to head north along the cliff, and at the base, you’ll find a cart with a tarp.
Brah, you have straight up lies in this video. I've spent well over 10 hours and I have only finished the first two main missions of the main campaign. There's at least 25 to 30 hours of content but if you chose to not do any of the side content sounds like a "you" problem. Down voting this videos because of your blatant lies. Shame. Very click baity as hell

Shattered Space is not a bad idea. It's just badly directed. At least it adds some custom areas you can revisit. But looking at games like Baldur's Gate (and even Mass Effect trilogy) Starfield is way behind. A galaxy with a thousand planets demands a LOT. It didn't deliver.
I think Bethesda 'ran out of money' and decided to release the game as is. Most content has no connection to the rest of the game. This is pretty frustrating. As you mentioned Andreja need a much larger role in Shattered Space, but she is more or less just following you, giving a few comments now and then.
I'm pretty disappointed about Starfield. I had the hope this game was the one to replace Skyrim and Fallout 4. But I was just bored after a while. Especially before they added the vehicle (Mako...).
Maybe Bethesda can work harder build on Starfield over the years and make something good that lifts the game. The template is there. We just need the spooky atmospheres, the deep characters and 'the sexy angles'.
Starfield is BASICALLY not a bad game. It's just too scraped. The idea is good. The thought of parallel universes is a sci-fi classic subject.
What annoys me a bit is that I actually bought a brand new SSD just for this game.
Bethesda could have used Shattered Space as an opportunity to try and save at least a SHRED of their reputation. This DLC isn't terrible, but asking $30 for it is ridiculous because this faction quest line obviously started as cut content from the base game. Releasing it as FREE content would have been the best move, but then they'd have pissed off all the idiots who got suckered into the "premium edition" and "season pass".
The people who bought the premium edition and season pass deserve to be parted with their money. I didn't even pre-order SOTE, even after Elden Ring was so good.
Crazy how Fallout 4 used to be the most disappointing game from Bethesda but now looking back its 100x better than Starfield in every way..
On my Xbox Series S Starfield collapses every 45 minutes to an hour ... this can be saving or going through a loading screen.
No Shattered Space is even worse, indeed in effect unplayable. It literally took me a day to get onto the Va'ruun home planet. 💩
If anyone is having the issue, it is a KNOWN FAULT which Bethesda says it'll get around to fixing some time ... What?
The answer appears to be to disconnect you console from the internet, this stops it collapsing.
Frankly, it's disgusting and Bethesda are once more 101% out of order 😠😠😠
I'm on XBOX Series X and performance isn't much better. I've had 3 or 4 crashes, and lots of FPS slowdown especially in the main city. Part of the problem could be my console is just long overdue for a cleaning. When Dragon's Dogma 2 released on PS5 I had similar crashing / overheating problems. At first I thought it was the game, but then after I cracked my PS5 open and cleaned out all the dust, it worked perfectly. I'd definitely recommend opening up your XBOX console and spraying out the dust buildup if you haven't done so lately.
I have zero issues on my s, x and pc. . Or More like user error in your case lol
@@xbotLife No one believes a bot.
I just take comfort in knowing I'm not the only one who feels like this. It feels like you post anywhere the games issues you just get "it's not for you" etc.
Far Harbour is crap. Binary story choices, boring locations miles apart, garbage characters, and the instigators of the whole story are nappy-pushers. It is not a role-playing experience, it is a walk through someone else's story and pick one of four different ways to say yes experience. If that is the best Fallout 4... well, yeah, that is a true Disney Wars experience. The best of it is still hated and vilified by many.
House Va'Ruun is a significantly less interesting version of Morrowind from 2002. The only reason it had mystery and intreague was because there was basically no information on them. Now that the DLC is here, they lost ALL THAT.
This is what is the future of Elder Scrolls, Fallout and everything else Bethesda touches. Boring, safe, easy and barebones.
Goodbye Bethesda. Watching you fail your way through time under Microsoft will be very amusing
Tane as a follower ticked me off because i spent a good 5 minutes investigating the camp for that old fat turd to then investigate as well. Bethesda wasted my time when they could have just had him figure it out instead. I felt disrespected. Why am i looking for clues to find him if you're going to have this other guy just know. I want to solve puzzles like that, not be guided so poorly
As the head of a small studio, I will do my best to prevent my company from putting out such a low effort product.
I think the fundamental problem with Starfield base game is the conflict of core gameplay mechanics, especially with respect to NG+ The game actually functions fairly well as a looter/shooter even without the Fallout VATS system. The issue is the terrible decision that was made to make you lose all your stuff when you go to NG+. In order to organically progress XP, skills, and Star powers, you are forced to go into NG+. However doing so makes you lose everything, all your weapons, suits, ships, outposts, resources, credits, etc. And the Starborn suit and ship you get for each NG+ are complete GARBAGE compared to normal gear.
why would you play NG+ with all your stuff, it's one of the few things in Starfield worth doing (far worse than their prior games) but playing the game again and having no loot collection, ship construction. sure it's busy work , but without it a SF playthrough would be even more dull
You would have already done the Quests, got the loot,seen the POI's, so what would be the point in doing it again for a game with no real RPG , Choice elements and just more spongey combat.
SF is a one and done, one i've finished it, i'm never going back to it
Bethesda never lets you kill important NPCs which I always didn't like however there is a game that did I forgot what it was call made by obsidian where you can murder everyone it was a pleasant play through I had when I found out. Some NPCs are so annoying and when I can straight up just get rid of them it's a masterpiece. Bethesda mods made by modders is the best thing so I can just break the quest and get rid of them
Agree , the space station was %100 on point ! , and then .. join a religious cult ? , not a chance , let them sort out their own problems
Yep, that did it for me. I have to join a group of religious terrorists who tried to annihilate all non-believers in the galaxy? Done!
Dude, you know there are a lot of people who still like Starfield, myself included.
The writing/lore/world building is so generic when they could have used the opportunity to have a story with some mystery and intrigue, some actual science fiction instead of more reskinned fetch quests and forced meaningless options leading to an equally meaningless conclusion.
It’s just so crazy to me how much of a downgrade Starfields base game and DLC is from Fallout 4 and it’s DLC. As much criticism as Fallout 4 got it’s still WAY better than Starfield. A roughly 100 man dev team made FO4 compared to the 400 plus dev team that made Starfield. Yet Fallout 4 feels like it has way more content than Starfield and was developed in half the amount of time. I think over the last decade BGS has lost a lot of the better devs.
Isn't this missing the main point? No one wanted more starfield. We wanted starfield to be better and to be the game we wanted it to be. Less loading screens, more alive world, fix the broken and half passed quests etc etc. Even if the dlc was great it's stil one minor piece of an overall disappointing game.
I keep hearing people say there aren't many new weapons. Who cares? Weapon diversity was about the 160th thing on my list of why starfield sucks.
If elder scrolls 6 flops theres no coming back. I’m willing to bet long lasting fans are banking on it being a good game and if not ? i can’t imagine them having much of a player base surpassing that entry. Also I was 13 when I got Skyrim. I’ll be in my 30’s by elder scrolls 6…
Is there any hope for Elder Scrolls 6?
Sadly no. Bethesda today is Bethesda in name only.
As long as Emile is the lead writer/designer things will not get better. He's failing as a writer with overly inflated dialogue that makes you want to skip it. And he's failing from a design aspect as well. For example, most people missing the companion is absolutely a failure of design.
Just look at that interview he gave recently to see how far up his own ass he is.
Still running around in cyberpunk 2077 cant get enough of it , never even bothered to try this game
Just play Phantom Liberty, Shadow of the Erdtree, and both Witcher 3 dlcs.
Last game I'll ever buy from Bethesda till they fire the front office at least. Pretty much the only person that works there that deserves to keep their job is the janitor, and that's questionable. The entire studio is hot garbage anymore.
All they had to add was continuous boost pack flight simulator to traverse the planets.
The fact ES6 is on this same tired game engine means its already over. Thats it
The dlc sucked.but when you walk back to the brothers apartment you will find them actually having a conversation together on the front porsche where they make up things with eachother. so drugging them both was the right choice indeed. i think it was pretty well done when i found them having a convo. when you talk to them though, they are very hostile and wont be gratefull for it. that was weird.
Wooooow! Another yter with a suuuuper original take! This is amazing work! All yall fools are so cookie cutter anymore, it's not even funny. Must be sad to have to follow trends to feel anything nowadays.
It blows my mind that more people don’t understand this. We have people calling Starfield “trash” and then praising mindless linear slashers with no story and pukey colors (Like Elden Ring) as “masterpieces”. Wild.
I went south east of dazra and found a strange spot where the game loads a lake then it disappears abruptly 😂 definitely probably used that procedurally generated map concept again
if the company threw children at the dlc andput this out then the company/todd doesn't care about quality. why would it care about quality anywhere eles?
Someone call the whaaaaaaambulance, they didn't make a game exactly to your specifications. How sad.
Its wasnt that damn bad and this is coming from someone that loathes Bethesda games but loves Sci-Fi. The final mission was horrible. Their engine isnt built for what they tried at the end. The constant crashes upset me more than anything else.
So for those of us that want SCIFI FPS RPGs what the fark do we do? There are NO others outside of Outer Worlds, and it's extremely mid and isn't moddable. Bethesda need competition. Badly. Doesn't help that they are woke either.
It is Unbelievable how far Bethesda has Fallen. What's wurst is they don't See it. I don't want to say I've been lied to by Todd Howard, But I was surely was Miss led more times than I care to admit. I can No longer trust Todd anymore(,it just works )also I have very low expectations on up coming Bethesda games.
I don't believe in a no win scenario....... Except,
when it comes to Bethesda.........
Can't wait for Mass Effect 5. Starfield and DLC total disappointment, big let down. I'd fire everyone who was involved in creating starfield.
Again and I'll keep pushing it. Your better off modding starfield into The star wars complete conversion overhaul. Adds aliens worlds and makes it a better star wars game that outlaws. Even adds some planets from the star wars universe. Though the planets themselves are simple images of said planets like Coruscant or Felucia with that planet being the closest. oh and actually turns NPCs into other alien races that have facial movement.
Bethesda needs to re structure. Move those employees. Promote the good ones.
I’m so tired of everyone following the rest of the herd, I loved the dlc and it completely re ingnited my feeling for this game,in 2 weeks and 1 patch update everyone will change their tone after they see 1000 ppl say it’s good
Lmao.. Everyone hates it.. Cope harder.. Game is trash.. If you like it that's fine.. Have fun.. But dont whine and cry because everyone else hates it..
@@johnnyflannigan136 sorry your attention span doesn’t last more then 5 seconds
People like this is why they feel comfortable releasing crap like this
I myself love Starfield but this dlc was bad. They added a story for the dlc and nothing changed in the base of the game.
Nobody is telling you what you can and can't like. If you enjoy Starfield then that's good for you, but coming from Bethesda and for 30$ people expect more "Umph" with their DLC after all of their games before having massive hours long DLC releases before. Mournhold, Solstheim, Shivering Isles, Point Lookout, The Pitt, All the New Vegas DLC (even though Beth didn't make those) Dawnguard, Dragonborn and Far Harbor.
The company is capable of making amazing things, yet they have chosen to be stale, lazy and overhyping their reskins to sell copies. They took too many lessons from Fallout 76 when going back to making singleplayer games and it's biting them now. It's fully deserved and this company needs to learn these lessons so they can go back to making good games instead of lazy slop that's "good enough."
$30 used to buy you a Bethesda season pass.
Yeah definitely get the feeling that this was cut from the main game tarted up a little bit and sold as DLC.....🔥💩🔥
Dude thank you so much for the re2 vids ❤ 😢 I literary wanted to cry because even on easy it’s hard . I love Bethesda to but …I get it
It feels like all the content is AI generated. Even dialogue and animations
Stafield is a failure. The dlc is also a failure. Bathesda should give up on this game, its a lost cause
Oh i know yall love Starfield and this dlc
yo did u used to be welder???
It's 'fallout 76 skyline valley' and more skyrim in shitefield.
Are the Brothesda's finally realizing they'd just been paypigs since FO76 launched? 😂
I bought it and im still playing it but im struggling to get through it man, i was in the middle of my 3rd play through of cyberpunk/phantomliberty and im seriously itching to get back to that or try the new diablo4 xpac 😅
Ok I will wait for it to come to game pass 👍
They somehow made gamers not excited for ES6....impressively inept company.
What most haters dont know is there is a companion (once you beat the expansion, and go to the bar with the overlook section over the city, at one of the tables there is a old man who wants to travel with you) in Shattered Space and random encounters like the one where you see people in a sort of disaster relief tent set up like in those zombie games and shows wondering where their food is coming in so they dont die.
I enjoyed it and have played a lot since it released.
Its total trash not looking forward to any of there new games now and that's sad
The DLC is great! I do agree with the $30 price tag. It's far too short to ask that much. Dawn of Ragnarok was $30 and it offered a lot of hours of content.
Imagine pay 30$ for the exclusivity to add more loading screens
Ty
I have a strong feeling it was just cut content they fixed up.
Hilarious that there are some clowns out there defending this shit 😂🤦♀️
Really? Click bait headlines
Very enjoyable, could it be bigger and better- yes.
But terrible no
Shockingly bland DLC!
No it's not, and there's no way you have played this full DLC. I stream this game full time, and I still haven't finished it. Just another creator trying to jump on the "I hate Starfield" train for clicks. You most likely spent more time making this video than actually playing the DLC.
I completely agree with you. It feels like I’m playing a different version of the game. It overwhelms me with interesting quests, massive dungeons, and tons of fascinating places to explore. Last night, I found a secret cave where I had to drill through walls and find wooden geese. In that cave, I found a new weapon - a nail gun "Auto-rivet". I’ve already played the DLC for about 20-25 hours, and I still haven’t finished it.
@@maximmax3671 Wait...where is this cave?!
And yeah. It's greedy creators trying to jump on the I hate SF trend.
This is so sad. I’m very happy with the depth of the DLC. It is obvious that these reviewers haven’t fully played through the full DLC.
@@SistaCitizen This is "Misthaze Cavern". It’s located to the right of the Rift. To the northwest of "MAL'EEM DAM", there is an industrial pipe. From there, you need to head north along the cliff, and at the base, you’ll find a cart with a tarp.
@@SistaCitizen If you need any clarification about this cave, I'll be happy to help.
I hope there are no starfield mods. It's clear Bethesda doesn't care about their games, why should we. And I hated the intro. You can't sneak.
hater
Cope harder
DEI. their talanted developers were let go in favor of "diverse" developers without a vision.
OMG you people are lunatics
Sit down. Razict azz.
Brah, you have straight up lies in this video. I've spent well over 10 hours and I have only finished the first two main missions of the main campaign. There's at least 25 to 30 hours of content but if you chose to not do any of the side content sounds like a "you" problem. Down voting this videos because of your blatant lies. Shame. Very click baity as hell
