Starfield Bad Reviews | But Did You Play the WHOLE Game Though? |

- I have watched all the bad reviews by content creators rushing to get out a review, but not actually playing the WHOLE game, which at this point since its release, would be impossible. And I'm not just talking about the story, which seems to be the only thing many creators are reviewing. But is it fair to judge Starfield this early based premature reviews?
Starfield is the first new universe in over 25 years from Bethesda Game Studios, the award-winning creators of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Fallout 4.

I've got almost 1500 hours in Starfield, and i did ultimately get bored with it a couple weeks ago, so I took a break.
Most people don't understand that the emptiness is the point. You are Starborn. You are not like other people. You can go anywhere and do anything and nobody else understands. They are a pale shadow of what you are. They barely think at all. They barely act at all. Universe after universe after universe, they say and do the same things. You watch them have the same conversations in the same places at the same times, as though they do not really have any meaningful existence in the first place.
They are not any sort of company. They parrot the same banal observations and have the same petty problems, every time. Sam can't get along with his dad. Barrett isn't over his ex. Andreja is conflicted over her religion. And even when you help them, when you walk them through the problem and reach a conclusion that should be satisfying... nothing really changes. You can't love them, not really, they don't love you back any more than a pet goldfish does.
The Emissary tried to tell you. These people are not ready. They are not even people yet. They may be, one day, but not today. You can help them, shepherd them, assist them, they do not notice. They do not care. Why do you work so hard? What is the point? You don't make any real difference, in the grand scheme of things.
The Hunter tried to tell you. These are not real people. Why do you care? You can carve your way through thousands, millions, with lasers and blades and your bare hands. Then you'll walk into the Unity and there they are again, all of them, as though nothing has happened. Why do you restrain yourself? What is the point? You don't do any real damage, in the grand scheme of things.
Same as it ever was. Same as it ever was. Same as it ever was. AND THE DAYS GO BY.
It's kind of like playing a game, isn't it? You help these people with their problems and nothing changes. The world doesn't change. Their lives don't change. They don't even say different things. They don't feel anything; they're bits of code running on a machine. They can go through the motions of being your friend and falling in love with you and marrying you and having your children, but they can't REALLY. They're not real friend or lovers or spouses, and the children aren't real either. Nothing is real. None of it is real. You, the player, are the only real person in the game.
This is not a design flaw. It was not a mistake. It is not bad world design. It's very intentional.
This is the point. The emptiness. The isolation. The repetition. And most people are just... too dumb to grasp that. I'm sorry, but it's true. The people who play this game and get frustrated that it's about being the only person who matters in a world that does the same thing over and over, just like every Bethesda game ever, are simply not that bright. Starborn. Dragonborn. Sole Survivor. Same as it ever was.
Is real life so different? You get up. You go to work. You do the same thing you did yesterday. You go home. You watch TV, play videogames, drink. You go to bed. Nothing matters. Nobody cares. Same as it ever was.
And the days go by.
Maybe if you got a different job. Maybe if you went to a different city. Maybe watch different shows, play different games, drink different liquor. Maybe go to bed in different places, with different people. Maybe that will change. Maybe it will matter. Maybe someone will care. But no. Same as it ever was.
Shahvee tried to tell you, all those years ago, on the docks outside Windhelm. Sometimes life puts you in difficult circumstances that you didn't choose, but being happy or unhappy is a choice that you make, and what is the point in being miserable all the time?
So here you are, Starborn, in a difficult situation you didn't choose. Where being happy or unhappy is a choice you make. And there you are, dear player, in a difficult situation you didn't choose. What choice will you make?
To be miserable all the time?
Same as it ever was.
I was just about to close up my laptop for the night, but knew I had to check this comment section first and braced myself for the onslaught of Starfield haters, mad that the game wasn't what they wanted, and so, they take it out on me this video, this thread. I have to say that not only was this a pleasant surprise, I was moved. Not only do you get it, you blew my mind. I haven't gotten close to your gameplay hours, but I can say thank you, for playing the whole game. Although It would probably have taken me a bit longer to see the whole picture like you did, you revealed the brilliance of this game, thank you. This is THEE most incredible review of this game I have ever heard. Ever. I would live to post your comment on my discord, and share it in a stream. Thank you for sharing.
@@SistaCitizenYou are more than welcome to share this anywhere you like. I loved your video. I love all your videos on Starfield. I have had to restrain myself from gushing about them in ALL of your comment sections, I just didn't want to look like a lunatic.
Thank you for loving what I love. There's this constant drive I see all the time to hate what other people hate. Love is so, so much better.
All the more reason I would have done something else if I knew all that in advance. My only best memories are the ships I made and lost.
I also find the Hunter to be an interesting person. When I first heard his view of things, immediately I thought he is a reflection mirroring most players. As a long time gamer and souls player, it was just obvious.
A player on his first playthrough might be more inclined to follow some moral principles for the character he plays than someone who has done more than one playthroughs with the same character already. There's a point when players might stop caring about certain decisions, they start to see the world in a similar way you have described it. And this may lead them to be mean or even cruel towards some characters they were nice to before.
This is the way to get more like the Hunter. To me it seems that you have embraced his ways in your thinking while playing so many hours.
With the May and June update it is now a great game. Can you get bored after 500 hours? Sure, 500 hours that’s a lot of play time. I personally think the game as it is now is a well balanced fun game. I’m still finding new and interesting content after 500 hours.
I respect your views but I agree with the critics on this one. Starfield got me to try No Man's Sky and it's just way more fun. Starfield needs a major overhaul to make exploration more fun and immersive. Bethesda marketed Starfield as "Skyrim in space" but it feels more like an incomplete Mass Effect 1. Even when the Creation Kit arrives, mods can only do so much.
The loading screens didn't bother me at first but after 70+ hours later all the loading screens and cutscenes really does make exploration feel disjointed. Space in Starfield feels a green screen backdrop to fight ships and watch cutscenes of grav jumping or interplanetary travel. I want to fly into the atmosphere from planet to planet and land wherever I want. Not clicking a menu to choose my landing spot and watching a cutscene.
Planet exploration is not much better. Scanning the same creatures multiple times to 100%, running or boost pack jumping 5-10 minutes just to reach the same copy/paste POIs. Starfield's outposts flat out suck all around. You have to run around 10-15 minutes looking for a "sweet spot" to plant your beacon.
I like Starfield's ship building, decent combat (especially in zero gravity interiors like the space casino) and some interesting 'one and done' quests like Walter's Neon quest with you mentioned with buying the artifact and the sneaking sections but the overall gameplay loop gets boring fast. The Constellation companions are all annoying as hell complaining about damn near everything you say or do. The Adoring Fan is the best companion because he at least praises you and doesn't give a damn about you being a space pirate or stealing some ammo.
Starfield will hopefully be a whole new beast 3-5 years later but right now Starfield is basically a soap opera, fast travel simulator. You shouldn't need to reach NG+ before the real game begins. The real game should begin when you press "start".
Again, if you played the game long enough, with NG+, you can traverse the landscape at light speed fully encumbered, without worrying about oxygen, faster than you could in a vehicle. 1 min tops, and its quite fun using your powers in sync. More challenging than just driving, or driving the clunky vehicles in NMS and way more fun IMO. Secondly, if you watched the whole video, I explained the scanning is for building outposts for which to grow plants and animals to make products. You don't even have to do it if you aren't planning on botany or zoology. The credits you get for 100% scan is chump change once you get into manufacturing, or stealing higher level ships in high level systems. There are at least five other companions that you can acquire, by playing the game, that also don't give a dam what you do, I have two of them with me now to pirate UC ships. I never use the Constellation companions except Andreja for stealth missions. The POI in NMS consists of buildings with a terminal where you get a few bits of ferrite if you answer a question right, or a gek selling resources you don't need. Settlements in NMS are uncustomizeable and produce worthless resources. NMS = animation when you land your ship, and loading screen when you warp. And as a female player, it is finally nice to have a female body, hair, and armor that doesn't make me look like a football player. I could never get immersed as my character. "Modders can only do so much" is a ridiculous statement. Skyrim / FO4 were not masterpieces when they launched. Its not until modders create the mods to allow people to play the game how they want for as long as they want. This release is the canvas, that will be built upon for over a decade I'm sure. True Bethesda fans know this. And modders WANT to do much, so they can get hired by dev companies. People swear modders are just burdened over worked martyrs spending hours and hours creating mods or fixing the game, out of the kindness of their hearts. Its a resume. And their form of art to which they also make an income through their socials, or again, collabs with devs. And if ME is so greatt, why arent people still playing it in record numbers over and over for lets say 12 years like Skyrim? Bethesda knows mods keep their games relevant, so providing the cleanest canvas for modders is smart, keeping the engine basic so that modders are familiar with the kit, so that mods are available on console early next year, so fast is a massive achievement. But thank you for your comment
@@SistaCitizen I agree to disagree.
I'm already using a few mods to enhance Starfield since the vanilla game and it's still not enough to keep me invested in its current state.
What's ridiculous is people saying you need to reach NG+ before the game gets good. 70+ hours is enough for me to see Starfield has a boring gameplay loop in its current state.
Modders work for a resume but still they should not have to carry the burden of fixing Bethesda's shortcomings. Bethesda spent 5+ years working on a barebones space RPG that looks awesome at one moment and looks like a PS3 game the next.
Many people still play ME1. Why else would Bioware release the Legendary Edition? It's a great story with immersive lore.
As for Starfield I'll wait for the Creation Kit and worthwhile updates to jump back in. Meanwhile NMS will scratch my space exploration itch.
Good convo and video topic though. Thanks for the reply.
There are currently 2,000 people playing ME per day, 55 people playing ME3 but 20k still playing Skyrim according to Steam charts. That's almost a million per month still playing modded Skyrim. So no, lots of people aren't still playing ME over and over, but they are playing decade old modded Bethesda games. The game has been out a month, and the modders don't even have the creation kit yet. Not sure what mods you are using, but I'm sure a month isn't enough for the best and fully fleshed mods. Legend of The Dragornborn mod for Skyrim changed the entire storyline and game assets. Starfield will be no different. And again, the modders WANT to fix and add to the game, "they shouldn't have to" is just your opinion. I can tell you've watched a lot of lazy content creators. You have all their talking points. @@sparkzmentalz2 P.S. the game does get good after NG+ th-cam.com/video/NpCcYgMTg3k/w-d-xo.html I've had these epic battles constantly on my planet. Gameplay changes completely. "I want it now" is not how Bethesda games work. You don't start the game as the Dragonborn. That takes time. Just like Starfield
@@SistaCitizen My talking points are my actual opinions after spending time with Starfield. I don't need to mimic anyone else's opinions.
2000+ players is still good for a game like ME1 or the Legendary Edition with no Creation Kit like Skyrim.
Yes modders WANT to fix Starfield but we shouldn't have to depend on mods to make the game better. The game should be good right out the gate. Again, Bethesda spent 5+ years and this is what we got? Come on now.
Like I said before I think Starfield will be a different beast a few years from now once the modding community spends time with the Creation Kit.
The ship building and combat is pretty good and there are some interesting quests that offer good food for thought.
Though overall in its current state Starfield is a disappointing Bethesda RPG. The exploration is pretty much null and void compared to Skyrim, Fallout 4, etc.
@@sparkzmentalz2 2000 players a day is not good, and neither is 55. Thats your nostalgia for a space opera talking, which Starfield is not. And people tend to have selective memories on the state of Skyrim and Fallout 4 when they were released. And were described as "boring." Neither of those games hit their peek until a few years out, and after the best mods had been established. And they were both incredibly buggy. "I want it now" seems to be your issue.
If one is evaluating the systems within the game you can say you have to fully experience them to judge them fairly.
That’s true. However if you believe a game is more than the sum of its systems there is room for a valid opinion that does not necessitate 500 hours or more to form.
Starfield is not lacking for time consuming activities, but rather the question is, does the player find those activities worth doing? Are they thematically consistent? Does engaging with them even on a relatively superficial level yield enjoyment? Does the writing, environment or mechanics entice the player to use the systems?
Can I judge all the Starborn powers in depth? No, because even though I endured the repetitive temple cycle to obtain all of them I didn’t use them very much. I simply didn’t find them all that necessary, fun or engaging to want to bother exploring that particular system.
The game never really gave me a reason to do so. There was never any puzzle or problem that required me to use any of the powers to solve. Although they yield a greater degree of creativity and freedom in combat I couldn’t bring myself to play much more beyond a relatively brief foray into NG+.
It isn’t enough to have mountains of content and a wide variety of in depth systems, a game must also draw players into doing them. Judging that particular quality does not require an extreme time investment.
Personally I think the game suffers from entirely too much filler that amounts to tedious grinding, especially in the skill tree.
The game was deliberately designed to be able to be played for hundreds upon hundreds and even thousands of hours. Which is fine, however the tactics used to meet that goal must go beyond, “because I can” at least for me.
You seem to be Bethesdas target audience and I am truly glad you are getting so much satisfaction from it. You are probably also in the minority.
I use my Starborn powers for combat, to traverse the landscape at light speed fully encumbered without worrying about oxygen. I can pull elements straight from the earth, farm resources from animals without killing them and to go invisible during quests. You didn't do that, or even use the powers in a playthrough. Respectfully, you didnt play the game as intended or for the long term as ALL Bethesda games are meant to be played. But thank you for your comment. And I would say, respectfully, in this comment section, you are the minority.
Good job! You have an opinion! That doesn't invalidate those of others! :D The game is shit. I have 0 hours myself but I have the collective experience of 1000s of hours and you are - just a shill.
Good for you.@@SistaCitizen
Go outside and touch some grass. How weird are you to be this angry about a game someone else likes. @@Zennethe
@@SistaCitizen "Respectfully, you didn't play the game as intended" so a persons enjoyment of the game or not can't be expressed before you have all the starborn powers? You see how crazy that sounds right?
Saying you have to grind away 500 hours until you have all the powers and skills before you can get to experience and appreciate the TRUE gameplay loop is firstly not respecting the players time and secondly why should a player be expected to have to endure 500 (or even 50 )hours of not having fun before getting to experience enjoyment from the game?
That's likely not what people expected when they handed their $100 over and was never mentioned in the marketing.
A well crafted game, 25 years in the making ect could have just made the games core gameplay loops fun from the start.
Plenty of indie games can do that with 1 developer and a tiny fraction of the budget, why cant a AAA studio with thousands of talented people and Microsoft's backing?
If I gave you a random game that you didn't enjoy and then told you off for saying you don't enjoy it because you need to finish it before you are aloud to form that opinion, then you can see how pretentious that would be for me to say that right?
Also saying that a role playing game in an open world that sells the dream of being able to play a character in any way you like starting with picking from a variety of backgrounds for you to help you role play that out, telling a person they are not playing the game right "as indented" is really missing the point of the game. And again a pretty pretentious thing to tell someone.
If you like this game that's great, but a lot of other people don't think its fun. They are not wrong for saying so.
If you play this game like checkers instead of like chess, yes you will not like it. But Bethesda games are meant to be played for THOUSANDS of hours. I am STILL discovering things, in space, which is where all the exploration actually is that people keep complaining about is missing. Ship markers with epic battles or strange things, like I stumbled across a floating ship full of cultist who just drank the kool-aid. I get it the game is not for you. You didnt have the patience. And I asked a specific question in the video..."But did you play the whole game though" Most people didn't including you it sounds like. Content creators who command consoled in all the goodies to make content and be the first, did a huge disservice to this game for clicks. Its like eating the bread they bring out in a restaurant, and you dont like it so the whole restaurant sucks. You didnt even have the patience to wait for your full meal. Clearly people still like this game. I hated the first episode of Game of Thrones. Thought is was boring, turned out to be one of my all time favorites. And I cant tell you how tired I am of people who don't like this game, and are mad at it, writing dissertations on why they hate it 4 months later, who clearly have either too much time on their hands, or really do like the game, I mean, why did you even click the video? Go outside and touch some grass. Or better yet, aren't there so many other games more awesome than Starfield you could be spending your time on? 600hrs in, NG Pluss 11, and still having a blast discovering things.@@driver3899
To be fair I respect your opinion it’s nice to see someone not hating on star field for popularity
In my own personal experience… I play for 15-20 hrs and took over a load of bandit hubs doing the same thing over and over and over…. I had to go back and sell my gear over and over and over again… and I just found it a bit Pointless and boring to be honest.
I thought to myself is this really worth £70-£120 or £12 a month for 6-12 months?
Is it really worth it?
I think morrowind (back in the day) Oblivion / Skyrim and the fallout games (except 76!) we’re miles ahead of this game.
And they were developed well before Starfield.
When will Bethesda learn though that as gamers were not dumb we’re pretty smart and catch on quick….
Gamers can smell a lie a mile off and in about 2-3 hrs we can determine what a game is going to consist of. There is no fooling us…. 😅
I think Starfield has SOME merit and the graphics are not terrible. I think the cut scenes in and out of ship and landing were deal breakers I know what you are saying about NMS but ….. they integrate that in a seamless way.
Bethesda has a mass of budget higher than NMS though .,..
Soooo, you didnt play the game? Taking over bandit hubs over and over isnt the game at all.
@@SistaCitizen please explain why someone who isn’t enjoying something should continue through it just because they might enjoy it by the end?
Are you there shoving peanuts down the throat of someone who’s having an allergic reaction because you think their negative opinion is invalid cause they didn’t finish the full pack?
Taking over bandit hubs over and over isnt the game at all.@@Colonel_Mustsard
@@SistaCitizen so are you saying the game has to be played the way you think in order for an opinion to be valid?
Also, I enjoy the new things you've revealed that i haven't found! I have so many things to try now lol. I like going and finding the little quirky easter eggs in the game. I found a My Friend Willoughby Delinquent party in a mining cart. They were playing spin the bottle with knives and beer XD
Right on! You sound like you play like I do😎 Glad you are enjoying the game too, and thanks for your comment!
It's a 6/10 but if you like Bethesda games it's fun people are holding these companies to a standard and I love it !!!
I'm mixed on it.
Basically a love/hate thing. And I have a lot of hours in it. Part of it was letting the game sit as I browsed the internet though, but probably 500 Hrs.
I don't believe a lot of gamers can forgive this game for not having atmospheric flight, transitions from space to ground, and no land vehicles.
I've gotten over the flight, but I believe my main issue was trying to play it like Skyrim. Ignore the quests and run out into the wilds and discover stuff. Starfield seems to be the opposite. You focus on the quests, but keep an eye out for other things to do in the locations the quest takes you.
I was surprised by the boring little delivery and shuttle missions. I decided to actually visit the location that I dropped off my passengers. Imagine my surprise to find a robot uprising there and all the other scientists are dead. I destroyed the renegade robots before my passengers finally walked up to the outpost. Also, I wasn't visiting the marked points of interests. I was in discovery mode, thinking I had to find the quest, but the stuff you find are mostly the procedural stuff. I don't like locations being marked for you. I would rather discover them on my own, but I guess Bethedsa is afraid people wouldn't be able to find things and say the game is empty.
I just finished the Crimson Fleet quest line and was about to put the game away to play Cyberpunk 2077, but I am not curious about the all the planets that I see I haven't visited yet. I am going to go check out the points of interests to see if there is anything actually interesting there. I have two major outposts and a bunch of minor outposts pumping our resources and three ships: science/explorations, cargo, and battle cruiser.
What Bethesda needs to do now is make more variations of their generated bases and caves with different enemies, configurations, loot locations, and state of maintenance and decay. They also need to give us more to do with our ships within a solar system. There needs to be more things happening in the game when you are going from point A to point B. And they need to figure out how to get land vehicles in the game. I am not up for all this walking. I would more likely spend more time exploring the ground if I had a Mako or any vehicles like in star Citizen.
After you NG+, you can traverse the landscape fully encumbered without worrying about oxygen in light speed, its actually quite fun to use your powers that way. More exciting and challenging than just driving. Again, the open spaces on planets is for building settlements, and once you do, depending on where you build, you will need to defend and repair your outpost from animal, pirate, and even Starborn attacks. There IS a state of maintenance and decay. My point again about people not playing the game long enough to experience all the mechanics of the game. People are also obsessed with caves. Geez. Thank you for your comment.
You know being able to join your world would change everyone's opinion on this game.
How an I supposed to finish the game? I cant even complete quests because of bugs!
Some very well-presented opinions here, clearly articulated and backed up with examples and evidence. Great job!
Thanks Wizard!😁
I adore this video and the stuff you said, clicked close. I'm on my ng+1 run and planning to build a small outpost on Toliman system as an expedition style. Having a blast too. :D
4% of players landed on 100 planets...
I respect your opinion and your completely entitled to feel how you want about the game. And I even agree about a lot of what you said about the reviewers and their process. But as a Bethesda fan ngl it broke me when you said Bethesda game were meant for making things lol. Not a complaint but as a early fallout/elder scrolls fan that hurt lol. Only recently has it become about that from fallout 4 on and I’m happy for you guys who enjoy that part of the game I just wish it didn’t come at the expense of us og rpg fans who played these games for those elements. Wish there was a way Bethesda could make old and new fans happy. This was the first vid of your I’ve ever watched and it was good, you have a nice voice to listen to as well!
Thank you for the comment!
You can build up to 24 outposts with the planetary habitation skill, and there are 6 player homes in the 3 major cities that you can either buy or earn as quest rewards, plus the house from the dream home trait.
24 it is! Thank you for the info. I'm trying to level my hab skills now. I cant wait! Thank you for the comment!
Why not just play mine craft if u just wanna build stuff?
Minecraft is boring. terrible graphics @@yujunkonarukami
Me personally? I Iove Starfield! Yes it has the typical Bethesda bugs. The Creation Engine holds it back to me. But over all, the game play is solid. The story is good and gets better as you progress. I appreciate how Bethesda has been dropping patches to improve upon gameplay and add minor features. And I think that when they drop the first expansion the game will be way better all around. And let's not forget when mods go live! 😃 This game has so much more to give us!
FACTS. And I'm here for it. I cant wait for new ship pieces, habs, outpost pieces, new armor...you know its all coming, and of course the mods. Thanks for the comment DOOM🤗
The engine is the reason why this game will last for years. What people don't understand is that the creation engine is the biggest reason why people still play Skyrim. Bethesda games have the like the top 4 molded games because of the creation engine.
Everyone wants to shit on it. But if they used a different engine for Starfield, it would be dead after a year because there would be no mods for it.
FACTS
@@mattmcc7930
@@mattmcc7930 I totally agree with you! I was thinking more along the lines of Bethesda making a newer Creation Engine. After some research, I learned they did use a new engine (Creation Engine 2.0) I just feel that with a new engine the game wouldn't be so buggy but hey, Bethesda gonna Bethesda 😂🤣😂🤣 And sorry for the late response.
I love it, I find it better than Fallout 4 and I liked that game. I havent got the much into outpost building but I built my vacation home across the lake from New Atlantis just for the view at sunrise lol.@@SistaCitizen
Yup. I gave it a second chance and played it all the way through. I did it because some of the Bethesda fans said that it gets so much better the further you get into it. To me, they're fooling themselves to not have to admit the game is a slog.
Did you build anything? Have followers running your outposts? Mastered ship building? Use your Starborn powers? Or did you just play the story? "Played through" is vague.
@SistaCitizen I built outposts. Set up trade networks on multiple planets. Got my magical powers. Interacted with many npc's gaining poorly written and poorly implemented quests. Watched a loading screen every few minutes. Had many companions but found most of them generic reskin copies of companions from other Bethesda games. The planets are only 4 square kilometers of boring procedural generated areas that quickly start repeating after several hours in. The game code for the cities is poorly written. The gameplay is outdated by about 7 to 8 years. Do you need me to keep going? There's a reason why Todd is considering leaving the company (but i think it would be a good thing, actually). No spoiler but the ending was laughable. The ship building is pathetically limited by your level even though you should be able to buy any part as long as you can afford it. The game is still full of bugs, lacking basic quality of life features that Bethesda will never put the time into it because they always rely on modders to fix the game and add the features/content that actually makes it enjoyable. Do you still need me to continue? Because I can.
@@SistaCitizenSurely the main story should be the best part, or at the very least enjoyable!
The story is never the best part of a Bethesda game. The mods and RP are.@@deanlowdon8381
Go on as much as you want although I think its weird you writing a dissertation on my thread about a game I like.Your arguments are nonsense. "The ship building is pathetically limited by your level even though you should be able to buy any part as long as you can afford it." Whaaaaa LOL! So everything should be unlocked immediately? That sentence in and of itself is nonsense. What game lets you unlock everything up front? Silly nit pick argument. Should I go on about the rest of your nonsense statements? @@humorinpolitics56
Hey Sista this was cool to listen too. For a person who has not played this game this is what I want to hear. I need to know the options and variety of things to do. I myself do not like one dimensional games and I myself have alot of imagination so I want to be able to play a game that has things in common as my irl personality has. I like a game thats has realistic options, I want to be able to build and make my ship or house or space station to my personality not just keep the default option. As I watch this game in your live streams its almost movie like. I think the world now days with YT and social media thrive on the negativity of things ppl want drama they don't want a happy endings and that's just my opinion. I read alot of articles on Starfield I see some bad but I see alot of postive ones and I do think this game will have better reviews or likes down the road especially if no other space games of this nature are being released. My only negative is its not on PS. I would rather play a game that would take me yrs to get everything or to complete it. Being a 70s baby I just remember playing the orignal Legend Of Zelda that game was just full of mysterious hidden doors and secrets took forever to beat and I actually never did lol; I missed that. It seems ppl wants games that are realistic now days but you can rush through them. Thats not fun to me. Anywho The ones who truly and I mean truly appreciate this game for ALL of its options im sure will appreciate this video. Haters gonna Hate and you can't stop that. Continue to constantly bring knowledge and information to the masses of Starfield fans and to ppl like me who can't play but enjoy space theme games and movies. Your the best. WOOT WOOT🖖🏾💯👩🏽🚀👨🏽🚀🚀🌌🪐🌠🛸👽
Thank you for this thoughtful reply EDogg 🥰 Im so glad you are getting in to it! Bummer its not on PS, because I know your cribs would be pimped out! Loving these comment EDogg. WOOT WOOT!
My 1st Bethesda RPG was Morrowind but it wasn't until Fallout 3 and Oblivion that I sank thousands of hours into which continued with New Vegas, Skyrim, and Fallout 4. There's so much I could say about Starfield but I'll be Brief. Unlike you I will be going for a NG+10 to be ready for whatever the expansion may be if it releases next year. I am enjoying the Game but I had to not allow myself to get attached to anything that I would normally collect in a Bethesda RPG but once I'm done powering up I'll be able to settle in Even though I'm still taking my time to play through all of the Main Quests and Side Quests and Achievement Hunting along the way.
Hey Bundee! I'm really enjoying the game too. I'm thinking of starting another character just for NG+ 10 only, just dreading the temples😑Thank you for the comment🤗
"in NMS your ship lands in a loading screen" Blatantly false because all of it is rendered in real time, it's a animation, yes but it ain't no loading screen and even then it takes 3-5 seconds.
Animation = loading screen.
@@SistaCitizen That's insane, what exactly is loading? a player can be on the ground while another is landing right next to them.
NO asset or data is being loaded, heck! it's not even a screen!
Animation = loading screen of your ship landing like Starfield = animation in NMS. It doesn't really matter. Regardless, you are not "landing" your ship. You aren't using your analog sticks, or adjusting your thrusters to touch down is the complaint. Like Elite dangerous too where you have to actually maneuver your ship to land it. That is not even an option in NMS, so people comparing the two are imagining that its a NMS option. Its not.
A good gauge to know if you're going to like this game, is if you enjoyed the mechanics or Fallout 4 and Skyrim, which are mostly improved in this game. Yes, it's an RPG, but Bethesda puts their own spin on things - with a lot of nods to older RPGs (like rewarding time spent in fully exploring dungeons). There's so much to do, especially in the side quests, I am not sure how people can get bored so quickly. But, it's not for everyone.
Agreed Woobie. In making reference to RDR2, that game isn't for everyone, but far from terrible just because its not the right pace of game for the person playing it. Its perfect for me, and I feel all the negative reviews will die down after it isn't the cool thing to do to bash the game. Even FO76 has a huge following, and those players have the bare minimum and maximum jank. Everyone wants everything fast. This game is not that. Glad you are enjoying it too Woobie, hope to see you around. 🤗
What side quests are you referring to? I did all the "side quests" on Cydonia and didn't like a single one of them. I did all the "side quests" on Neon and didn't like a single one of them. Like, I love a lot of Bethesda sidequests. I thought pretty much all of Markath for instance had fantastic side quests that were more than just "talk to this person" or "kill that guy" or "buy this thing" or "collect this thing" which is what practically all the quests I've found in Starfield are. Where is the quest in Starfield that is anywhere near as interesting as "The House of Horrors", where an evil god traps you in a house and can end up forcing you to kill, against your own will, by brutally bashing a mace repeatedly on priest of a rival god? The setting of Starfield is far too bland and uninteresting to have anything like that happen.
@@megiddox not even the automated factory quest?
@@downixI'm not sure what you are referring to as I did not run into those on Cydonia or Neon. Those were the only two towns that I extensively ran through the side content since after those two I was rather disappointed and just bee-lined the main story plus faction quests and then shelved it until modders can come up with much better quests than Bethesda.
@@megiddox it's a questline you run across while exploring different worlds. Much like the Skyrim quest you refer to, it is not part of the main story and unless you have the encounter with the triggering location, you will never know it existed.
bones are good but the meat is under cooked and lacks seasoning. its almost as if its going to rely on mods to fill in the gaps
I agree that in your viewpoint about the planets/ outpost building but for me personally I couldnt get into that part of the game. Built like 6 outposts that interlinked but It felt more like busy work to me.Also to just run/jet pack 3 to 4 mins to each point of interest burned me out. My favorite side quest were the defending the 3 farmer families from the spacers, the clone quest, the nasa ai quest, and the ancient human ship quest in paradiso.Also scaring people on titan was fun too. I personally think the biggest detractor is that skyrim/fallout fans wanted a similar exploration game loop but did not get that. So thats why most people are turned off including myself.
After NG+ it will take no time to run between points, even fully encumbered. 1 minute tops for me at NG+ 4. And as far as FO and Skyrim loop, I recall there being nothing but open spaces. You had to go into a city to find the discoveries in the open world, just like Starfield. Maybe the occasional NPC to engage you in a quest along the way, but people act like there was discovery at the end of every road.
@SistaCitizen I'm only NG+1 (level 52)but I put all my points into crafting, speech/bargain,spaceship designer/pilot and some combat perks for safe measure. So maybe just a difference in builds idk.Also I mean yeah your right there was alot of nothing spaces but like you start in sanctuary, you see boston and start to walk towards it then you walk to concord and meet the minute men. Then you walk more might find a shack with a secret lab underneath,get a random encounter, then you fight the raiders at the corvega plant. Then you walk more and meet the brotherhood of steel and help them out.Then once your in Boston you can do the railroad trail or met Cait or help piper. What I'm trying to say is that between point A and B there was stuff to keep you engaged. In starfield there is no in-between A and B unless your in the hand crafted parts of the game.Which is fine. It's all a matter of tastes. You like the outpost building. I don't so the value of the content will differ greatly. Overall the game is good but I think public perception will be better once modders add the in-between content for the random generated stuff or if Bethesda fleshed alot of the stuff out in DLC.
I watched your recent MOD Upload called *SKK Stalkers and Followers* By SKKmods
I seen you having a blast with all the Spawned soldiers ,on your fun missions....and downloaded it to my game play..
Now not only am I , kicking butt while sipping my coffee on the side line..but I can now Take anything/everything from citizens everywhere and fill up my pockets with over 100,000 credits and sell off med supplies and food...it's a blast to play this mod ...lol
Its a pretty fun mod. Especially if you want to just have something crazy and fun to do. Glad you're enjoying it and Starfield. I love this game!
They absolutely nailed the scale and sense of wonder you find while on your adventures.
You know it’s a good video when the creator is in the comments telling everyone they’re wrong for not agreeing with their half-baked opinion. “No guys the game is good, everyone is overlooking the fact you can find a left slipper.” I mean we all heard space RPG & immediately got excited for collecting slippers and other inanimate objects
Collect Deez Slippers, th-cam.com/video/CYOYygd3sfg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HuhOtu94Zm6-vp99 Then get back to me on how boring the game is. Then get the hell off my thread.
@@SistaCitizen I don’t need to watch your gameplay to suddenly understand the game is good. Just accept that most people dislike this thing you enjoy because they find it boring.
Yes you do. Because it will prove how silly you sound to those of us who actually play this game. It will help you to stop embarrassing yourself. You played a chess game like checkers. Watch an NG Plus 11 pro play chess.@@Colonel_Mustsard
@@SistaCitizen I mean it speaks volumes to how deluded you are when you think Starfield is the kind of game where it needs some level of intellectual thinking to play.
Keep up that superiority complex king, you’re definitely the only one who knows what’s up
Figures you didnt watch, because you would REALLY feel silly after saying that. Let me help you since lore isnt your thing and you're easily bored...skip to 10mins in. Have the intellectual capacity to back up your argument after I prove you wrong in one clip. @@Colonel_Mustsard
The No Man's Sky style planet exploration is good, but I was hoping for more Bethesda-style exploration; it turns out, those have mutually exclusive elements. To remedy this, they could have concentrated more content into 3-5 planets; for instance, making the New Atlantis and Akila maps feel like a couple holds worth of locations in Skyrim, with actual towns and things to find on foot. Then leave most of the other planets devoid of human activity except for a few marked locations, so they don't become so repetitive.
The outpost with enemies are for farming Legendary weapons from enemies, is the point of them. Just like in Warframe where you run the same map over and over for the drops, or running a derelict freighter for drops in NMS. Its not for just the sake of combat
I hope they expand on the outposts system. I want to make my own space cities that settlers come to and I can populate with traders and so on. Fallout 4 had this, so I don't see why it shouldn't be in Starfield too.
I hope they add that too. That would be amazing. I hope they also release new modules and ship pieces with their expansions. Sounds like you and I have the same idea! 😎
@@SistaCitizen Yes! Shipbuilding is such a cool feature, and hardly any of the bigger TH-camrs seem to talk about it much beyond, "it's there, and it's surprisingly deep." People love to trot out the old line that Bethesda games are "wide as an ocean and deep as a puddle" but then they spend their entire time with the game splashing around in the kiddie pool.
Really, where are the foundations? That's the one thing I want for Outpost
Totally agree on almost every point! I haven't played long enought, too. Despite being over 200hrs in. Not even started NG+. This game is amazing and the amount of hate it gets is just bogus.
💯💯💯 Im still learning new things at NG 11. Take your time and enjoy it!
The only problem with Starfield is visual weather effects, or the lack of it.
They add that, and exploration become 100% more engaging.
If I am frozen, I would like to see why, and more than just an status effect.
Hello, I've never seen your vids before, I subbed , really liked what you had to say.
Thank you Isaac! Hope you are enjoying the game too! Thank you for the comment😁
I think people jump to "this sucks" when what they really mean is "this isn't what I wanted it to be." No game is going to be for everyone.
I love a good sandbox. The storyline on a game is almost never a draw for me. So to me, this looks like pretty much exactly what I want out of a game.
Let me just say, I have played NMS for years and STILL don't understand or know the full story. I have played Skyrim for hundreds of hours on a single playthrough and never touched the story, I was so wrapped up in crafting and the player homes. Sure every once in a while I would engage in a random encounter, but I was on my way to a mine to get more iron😄 Players like me will love this game. It has everything a crafter, builder, RP player would every need. Its not for everyone, but it makes the game far from terrible. Thank you for the comment Bonaduce. Wise words as always😄🥰
it's not even good by bethesda standards, and I think that hurts it more. It's a mediocre game with none of what makes bethesda games fun.
@@wolfwing1it's different by bethesda standards.
They tried something kinda new whilst not wanting to veer too far away from their roots. I think they did a great job on the whole.
@@skyriminspace thing is for me and many others they didn't bring what made the other games fun. Empty lifeless worlds with boring stories isn't anything I care for.
@@wolfwing1 i don't like golf, it doesn't appeal to me. You know what i don't do? Play golf. I also don't go around saying how terrible golf is (in my opinion).
Not having a go at you personally as you're far from alone in being disappointed by starfield. But it's time to move on. Plenty more games to try out!
i personally dont like starfield at all, but i am glad to see that there alot of people who do. we all play games because we enjoy them and want to have fun so even though i dont like the game, im glad you guys are having fun with it. same with skyrim too, i dont like that but its nice to see that right now on steam there are over 15k people playing it. what im trying to say is that, no matter the reviews or anything like that we play games because we love them and i love that you guys still express your love for a game that overall isnt well liked. hope you guys continue having fun with starfield :)
I have quite a few complaints about this game, none of which stop me from enjoying it on a daily basis. 320 hours and counting. I've transitioned away from the storyline into the more meditative surveying/stealing ships game loop now, and I'm really enjoying myself.
Exactly how it is meant to be played.
great video! Many great and interesting takes. Agreed, many things missed by reviewers and content creators. Even myself, TH-cam has sort of been my journal on Starfield 😅 was critical about it but the more and more I played it and got over the short comings the more I see the potential and the more my opinions and perspective is changed by also watching these kind of videos. Keep it up!
Thank you Rampage. I'm really enjoying the game, especially the more I play too. Hope to see you around the channel😎 07
When you know how cool story telling can look like in Cyberpunk, Witcher or even Masss Effect II+III , when you've seen space travel in Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous and when Red Dead Redemption gave you a feeling of an open range country - than Starfield looks and feels completely outdated in 2023. A a new franchise like SF should not be build on an old engine.
After you finish the story in Cyberpunk, there is nothing to do other than shoot at factions standing on the corner. ME had a great stories, but are from a space exploration game, nobody plays Elite anymore, the game is dead, and many were scared away because it was too complicated, and everyone said the exact same things about RDR2 when it first came out, as they are saying about Starfield. I respectfully disagree. ITs like telling your new spouse how hot and in shape their ex was, and how YOU should be like that, but then you see a picture of the ex, and they were none of those things. Thank you for your comment.
I guess I know what you mean but that was not my point. You are right, all of the games had their flaws BUT in terms of game mechanics (story telling, presentation, graphics an so on) thery were really innovative in one or two things. They set new standards in game development. Like Bethesda over a decade ago. @@SistaCitizen
In using an updated version of the same engine, modders will be able to get mods on console quicker, which is what Bethesda announced. Mods by early next year which is record time. I think that is setting a new standard. And as a side note, my Skrim SE looks as next gen as any other game released today because of mods. Its the reason just as many people pplay Skyrim as RDR2, which is a much newer game. I think everyone has forgotten that Bethesda knows mods have been making their games relevant for over a decade. If I am aware that mod creators are going to have at it with my game, and thats what I want them to do, I am going to make it as easy for them as possible with a basic canvas. And everyone who is a true Bethesda fan who mods their game, which is what most fans do, knows this. There are even mods that change the storyline completely. You can even make the whole game be Game of Thrones, complete with all the armor, and character faces if you wanted to in Skyrim. Thats the point of their games.@@henryluebberstedt7819
bethesda jank is one thing, we all accept that, but when it comes to starfields lack of content that's a whole other thing.
There is plenty of content.
the Encounters are great.. Side Quests are good... im addicted to ship building.. 459hrs (NG+1) and still counting... its a fun casual space game...
Im still having a great time with it too. Just started NG+5. About 350hrs in and still loving it. Have fun Captain! 07
Im a new sub and im glad i found you i appreciate your rant on this SF this game is a very beautiful game meant to be played for years to come the amount of hate this game got even b4 it came out is the review bombing is something I never saw my in all my years of gaming I actually liked the story I love rpg ...I'm on ng+1 but haven't dove into ship building or outpost building yet but I'm excited to learn so I just been injoying the side quest and main but that's why I've been searching for videos like yours so I can learn how to do those things and your so honest about it and your loving the game like I am you definitely motivated this game is my confort game me to do more things you but if you have tutorials on how to build outpost bcause yours look awesome i wanna get so good i want to make cities 😂😂 but im not there yet but i do love this game thank you so much i wish there was more conent creator like you i was getting bumb out because this game deserves love ty for giving an honest review/rant 😂❤ sub for life
I'm in love with this game so far. I plan on making tons of content as so far I am completely hooked. My next stream I will be building up my wildlife outpost so I hope to see you around😊
I really liked what you had to say. You earned a subscribe and I look forward to more content.
Thanks Aubrey! And welcome!🤗
No! I got to level 17 on the xbox and it crashed every load screen, so my character is stuck in CowBot Town.
THANK YOU! 🙏 I absolutely agree with everything you’ve said! Starfield is a beautiful sandbox in the sky and I love it! I’ve played NMS since it came out as well and Starfield scratches every itch NMS couldn’t. I never expected everyone to love Starfield but I am shook on the intense backlash it has gotten…I’m used to people bashing Bethesda games but idk why they expected it not to be a Bethesda game. Sorry if you can’t hang folks, these games are meant to be a sandbox that YOU roleplay, not the next trendy evolution of gaming. Bethesdas games have always had a cult following because they fill a specific niche in the RPG genre. Thank you again for making this video! Love hearing about other’s experiences in the game!🎉
Thank you for the comment, and showing the game love. Im over 500 hrs in now and still having a blast. I agree 100 with what you said as well. Bethesda games dont hand you the fun, you RP to make your own, they just give you, and the modders the canvas. I played Skyrim over 1000 hrs, only played through the whole storyline once. Honestly, I thought the story in Skyrim was the boring parts too. Looks like you and I are in the same cult following! lol
Haha I guess we are! Well made video by the way, I’m glad I found your channel. Looking forward to more!
I've played for about 60 hours, and have been exposed to all the crafted content this game has to offer. I've been to every system, picked up every "distress call", "walked into" every side quest, and of course, gotten every main/faction quest chucked at me. And what I will say, is that 15 of those 60 hours were not a complete waste of my time and often enjoyable, while the remaining 45 hours of it was, in fact, a complete waste of my time and deliberately crafted to be a waste of my time by Bethesda. It rivals mobile games in terms of disrespecting and wasting the time of its players. And I gotta tell ya, I've heard the "It's got potential!" argument about games, before. Champions Online is one example. Wildstar is another. Nuff said.
There is no way you did all of that in 60hrs. Its taking that long just to understand the ship building. Anyone who says they have done all there is to do in a Bethesda game in 60hrs is being dishonest, or didn't play the game as intended. Imagine saying you did all there is to do in Skyrim in 60 hrs. "exposed to the crafting content"....did you build outposts with high level manufacturing? Built a fleet of ships by grinding out your outposts and selling? Did you raise animals and create biomes to grow plants? in 60hrs? Impossible. And how do you know you played ALL quests...in 60 hrs....in a Bethesda game. Respectfully, not enough time, but thank you for your thoughts on your 60hrs. I will be giving a review, after I have played the FULL game.
@@SistaCitizen That's what I meant by, "HAVE BEEN EXPOSED to all the crafted content this game has to offer". I've picked up every sidequest, finished most if not all of them; finished UC and Freestar, am not far into Ryu and Crimson, and am on the 3rd act of the dullest main story in Bethesda history. That's certainly far enough to know that there's nothing left to experience that may change my mind about this game(it's mediocre), and I haven't been able to talk myself into loading it up in weeks. I've spent an hour or two ship building. In itself, it's great, but there's little point in getting into it since ship content barely exists. I spent maybe a half hour on outpost building and that was to mine mats to hand to the bot at the clone colony. That was also a dull experience that had little point in the game so I've not pursued it any further. All that is easily doable in 60 hours, even with BGS's complete lack of respect for my time in these absurd fishbowl runs.
Bummer you didnt play long enough, to experience this awesome gameplay. This happened at my "boring" outpost. th-cam.com/video/NpCcYgMTg3k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pnbtcWOQ2HEoddK-@@robsolf
So, you didn't actually play the game. What you described is not playing the game as intended. And your explanation of "exposed" in this game means you didnt do it, mining and delivering the ore is not the crafting and manufacturing, and making high level products. That is what I was talking about, which is fine, but saying it sucks, when you didn't even play it is dishonest. Its not for you, fine. Play another game. @@robsolf And as a side note, the Crimson Fleet quest is the best in the game, and TONS of ship content, from stealing others ships for parts and battles in systems for XP. and you haven't even played it. Again, my point of the video.
@@SistaCitizen I've given you a couple days. Do you still think that was a good answer?
I love Bethesda games, bugs and all and have played their games for years. Starfield is not perfect but I’m having fun with it, I’ve found plenty to do quest wise. Learning outpost building and how to do the cargo links now. Haven’t gotten the inter-planetary links to work yet though. Anyway, just found your channel today and subbed. Enjoyed your vid and looking forward to more.
If this game continues to sell poorly, and as a result somehow contributes to an eventual end of the Bethesda company, THEN I'll agree with you and call this game 'good'. But until then, I ain't paying £60 for a game with lobotomised gameplay, story, atmosphere, setting, and characters, all of which I've seen being done MUCH better in at least a dozen older and cheaper games.
U' enjoy what you enjoy, and I'll continue avoiding what I hate, or what puts me to sleep.
Yawn. Still going eh? Where is it showing its selling poorly? Link? I think Mindcraft is boring, Fortnite is boring, many people still love those games. This one is not for you, but many people love it. So weird people spend their time hating this game, enough to troll comment sections. Play another game.
@@SistaCitizenreviews say it’s a mostly negative. And sales don’t really matter if people buy it and never pick it up. Sales are good because AAA developers know they can get away with mediocrity and you’ll be there to defend them lol
@@rogueshay853 87,000 positive vs 60,000 negative reviews that is on Steam? How is that mostly negative?
There goes your credibility.
I really enjoy this game too. I’m also a big Bethesda game fan.
Even though I have had many problems, crashes, missions that are bugged and I can’t complete.
But I don’t care, there’s lots of other things to do.
I have played 140hrs so far went through the unity 10x been a space cop, pirate, explorer, collector, started my own mining and resource manufacturing business…. Etc.
I don’t like many “content creators” most of them are awful and full of themselves.
Not you Sista, you are awesome!
Excellent points made.
Thanks J. 100% Agreed! This is only my 2nd character. I cant wait to start another, and have different RP for each one. Space cop🤔....I love it!
New sub because of your grown up and relaxed outlook of a game that I love!
Games are about personal preference to what you as the player enjoy! I have always been keen in sinking time into sandbox style games and especially those set in space!!
Ok the writing isn’t as good as say RDR2, or the gunplay isn’t BF4, but it has the Bethesda charm which I’ve always enjoyed and have always wanted to be added to a game after spending so much time with Mass Effect back in the day. Unfortunately and with no means by disrespect, But I feel people are so quick to Judge and trash something rather than just say it’s just not my cup of tea, yes I’m British;)
Anyway… I think this game is brilliant and will be following your content from now on O7
Agreed. For instance I love 60hr games, which is the standard for a good AAA game, but I am not going to play it over and over for 12 years like a Bethesda game. If that were the case, people would still be playing ME in record numbers. True Bethesda fans know this is a base canvas for us to do what we want, for as long as we want. The fact that they will have mods available for console early next year is record time. I personally cant wait for all the new building pieces and ship parts that will be added in. Thank you for your comment, and hope to see you around the channel😁
That’s genuinely funny!!! I went to make a cup of tea and hadn’t watched to the end of your vid before I commented… You also mentioned RDR2!! Which is an absolute masterpiece!! Show’s your caliber! Keep up the good content!! 👌🏻
@@29JTACalso english (no-one calls themself british unless they're english let's be honest) also really enjoying starfield. Got that initial "oh, this is.... different" vibe but the more i play the more i find to like.
Feels very cool to be one of those people (apparently a chosen few according to youtube's algorithm at least) for whom this game was made.
An Englishman yes of course!! … I’m completely in agreement with your views on this game! Both the scope for future updates and of course what the modding community will bring to the table has me genuinely captivated!
I particularly enjoy ship building and I hope those Mechs get powered up someday;) I think a few tweaks here and a content patch there and this will be a roll play I will enjoy for a long while yet!
I can understand peoples gripes but if you don’t like it then play another game? Your glass is either half full but as it appears with most other creators…. Their’s is half empty
No Man's Sky planets are rather similar in many ways repeating the same few things.
Great point of view.
What I saw was that there was a whole lot of negative in that initial blast of reviews.
Those who paid for or received early access and needed to make "content" by blasting through the story, maybe a quick faction quest or two and very rudimentary ship building or base building.
Then the trend seems to have changed a bit - from those who have really sunk their teeth into the game.
The intricate ship builds with no ladders/ 1 ladder and calculated doorways, the homages to classic sci-fi ships.
Then from decorated apartments to the massive bases - both hyper-efficient factory and the dream palaces on the water of an idyllic planet.
It really seems to be that those who love the game, love the game.
Me personally - 11 "days" in - level 64. Have not even visited The Eye nor done Sam Coe's mission.
Just having fun doing the Faction quests, side missions and leveling up/grinding for cash (lots of ship stealing) to feed my ship-building addiction.
I've only got a minimal base - mainly for the landing pad/ship builder - but I think you base looks nice and I may dive deeper into that, once I find a nice location with some ocean views and wildlife.
May do a moonbase too - just to have that for a change of scenery.
Of course - need to balance that with actually finishing the story and deciding which NG+ will be my forever home.
You get it. Exactly my point. Thank you for your thoughtful comment Frankie. Fus Ro Dah!
@@SistaCitizen This game is scratching am itch from way back when I first saw Star Wars. (I'm old) That what you saw in that movie was but a tiny glimpse, through a window, of a much larger and more interesting living universe.
One where stuff was happening all the time, just out of view - people just living their lives.
Starfield fulfills that for me. Some people are out there hunting Pirates. Some people are out there being Pirates. There are entrepreneurs making loads of money and some being vagabonds. Expert planet surveyors and couriers.
I can jump in my ship, with my crew, and go - all without being shackled to having to finish the story. And there is still so much I can do.
In a great year for gaming with some excellent releases like Baldur's Gate 3, Alan Wake 2 and TOTK to name a few, there was also the long awaited Starfield.
A game that not only looks and plays outdated but also unsuccessfully tries to hide the bad written story through its scope.
Bethesda chose for the quantity over quality option and it shows in nearly every aspect of the game.
The company has always been praised for its open world exploration and discovery but Starfield is sorely lacking in that area as well.
The game is classified as an RPG but can't be justified as one since every choice you make in the game has little or no consequences at all.
The very poorly inplanted UI, the tons of loading screens, the boring combat and the dialogue of the uninteresting characters and robotic-like NPC's destroys every last bit of immersion.
I could continue writing all the things this game does wrong but I want to focus on a positive aspect: the ship building. This is insanely well done and the results are often very satisfying. But than again, at the end it's all pointless as the ship is mainly used as a fast travel hub.
To conclude: Bethesda needs to reinvent itself, it got stuck in the past and the lack of fresh ideas puts a damper on the company's future.
I am not looking forward for The Elder Scrolls 6, on the contrary I do not mind at all. But I REALLY hope Bethesda proves me wrong.
I respectfully disagree, but thank you for your comment
@@SistaCitizen Thanky you for the comment, much appreciated.
I know you're a real Bethesda fan like I (used to be) but honestly you can't be blind for all the shortcomings this game has. Even my older sister who's played Beth games for thousands of hours said this game is a struggle particularly when compared to other new releases this year. In 2023 Starfield looks and feels like playing a game of 2010.
Don't get me wrong, I'm convinced that a lot of people have fun with the game and I am really glad for them, on the other hand there are plenty of gamers who've quit the game because it's missing the basic Bethesda quality like open world exploration among other things. Some people claim that Starfield is the Bethesda game with the fewest bugs. Really? This game has more flying objects than a f*cking Harry Potter movie. Lastly, when a company rely on modders to make their game better it means they made a bad game in the first place.
Unfortunately as a true sci fi fan I am deeply dissapointed in Starfield, it could have been so much more but nowadays my quality standards for gaming are much higher than Bethesda has to offer.
Again I respectfully disagree. Bethesda is aware that mods keep their games alive for decades. A true Bethesda fan knows this is a canvas for modders, and so do the modders. People swear modders hate fixing games, when in reality, they do it for potentally getting hired by devs. And the good modders make money for their work. People swear modders do it for no reason. And the point of Bethesda games is to customize it the way you want. My Skyrim looks AAA next gen right now which is why millions still play Skyrim 12 years later. Its a winning recipe. I respect your opinion, but just dont play the game. Its not for you at this state, but personally I love the canvas and cant wait for the modders to paint it. If you were a true Bethesda fan you would see it the same way. Cleary even in this thread, true fans love it and see the potential. I still dont understand why people are spending so much time writing dissertations in threads about why they dont like the game. Just dont play it. You said yourself you (used to be a Bethesda fan" so why are you here? And boring combat? Hardly...you didnt play long enough for good combat like this: th-cam.com/video/NpCcYgMTg3k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=AVxf8_z9lRm5k2SH@@wardvandecotte9253
@@SistaCitizen I played Starfield for 40 hours. In fact I wanted to quit earlier because I was bored like hell. People were claiming it's getting better after 20 hours so I forced myself to continue. Unfortunately it wasn't
But well, it is what it, waste of time and money.
Playing Cyberpunk 2077 now, what a hell of a game that is, a real blast!
Good luck with the channel, thnx for the conversation.
Nothing to do in Cyberpunk once you finish the story and side missions except shoot at factions who are standing on the corner. Fun game, but not replayable for 12 years over and over, it will be forgotten in 3 months until the next DLC, like it was after 2.0 but have fun with it.@@wardvandecotte9253
I played a few hours at launch then dropped it to play other stuff. I wanted to play it last week for no reason really. I played it over the weekend and damn I'm hooked like usual in BGS games. I was playing Fallout 4 a week back and 3hrs wenr by and I remembered why I love their games and how I spent over a thousand hours in Skyrim.
Its weird. Bethesda games always give you nostalgia when you log back in. every time I load up FO4 and hear that opening music, or loading into Whiterun, and even though you've seen it a million times, it still makes you laugh or you want to punch Nazeem when he tells you it's "obvious you don't get to the Cloud District."😄Now that we can build in our ships, for me, I think it will be the humming of my Starborn Guardian ship. Sounds like Starfield has you, lol. Good luck in your adventures Captain.
@@SistaCitizen I'm bound for the stars with no direction in sight, and that's the beauty of the journey.
This game was probably supposed to originally be a Games as a service model, like fallout 76, and it would probably be better as a multiplayer game.
Finally a perspective that makes since.... great video
Thank you maniac🤗
This burger tastes like crap, but did you eat the WHOLE burger though?
It tastes like crap to you, but if you look at the many comments here who agree with me, we love how it tastes. Go to another restaurant then🤷🏾♀️
@@SistaCitizen Ok 👍
So now it's been a couple months...
And I still love the game. Just finished a stream an hour ago. Is there a point you are trying to make orrrrrr?
LOL how bored are you to come back 2 months later and troll?😂 Go outside and touch some grass.
Great video 👍 I'm only a few hours in. But so far I love it however it can be a bit overwhelming with a steep learning curve for a game but it's really not a bad thing though especially if you love learning. This is my first Bethesda game Im really diving into.
I'm still enjoying this game after completing all the faction quests, exploring the galaxy while I play as a FreeStar Ranger. I haven't dove into NG+ but I might eventually. I honestly think I'm strong enough on hard to handle the content.
Nonetheless, I agree with what you are saying. Some TH-camrs was just trying to get their content out before hoping to the next game to do the same thing. It's practically a shame at this point how the process & cycle for reviews are on the Tube with games.
Keep enjoying Starfield and making it the most for you.
Glad you are enjoying the game too! And yeah, its all about the clicks and trying to be the first. Thank you for your thoughtful reply. See you in the stars Captain!
Ive got almost 15 days. Most accurate video ive seen. You have my sub little sis.
Thank you Hood! Hope you are enjoying the game! Thank you for the comment.
I enjoyed hearing a different take, but what if I don't want to do that stuff cause I really don't have to and there's no incentive to do so? I built A (1) base. Decided, "Why bother? My ship is already a mobile base. That is the fastest, biggest, hardest hitting thing that fits in a space port. I guess maybe for mats, but I have enough of p much everything. To the point that unless I see an orange weapon, I already use. I won't even bother to pick it up." My whole experience with the game was,"I could do that. But why?"
You should watch my video "Best Planets For Outpost Roleplay." I built a base on a Terrormorph planet. Its awesome when they attack my base, along with faction attacks. Hardly useless. Starfield is a roleplay game. All Bethesda games are. Fun is never handed to you. You create your own. NG Plus? I find being a space god at NG Plus 11 to be awesome, who needs weapons when you can literally suck the oxygen out of thee air?
Really good video! Almost 600hrs in according to Steam and reached level 115 but still not on NG+. I love outposts I am completely hooked. Starting from basic resources to simple components to gradually more complicated components is so rewarding. I know there are bugs and things can break but once you learn how to avoid potential problems it actually works really well. Got to manufacturing Austenitic Manifolds after establishing Reactive Gauge manufacturing etc. Done most of the missions and main story but still to start the Crimson Fleet as I'm most looking forward to doing it once I've built my production empire haha love the video totally agree ☺
YES! Personally I haven't even gotten that deep into manufacturing yet other than adaptive frames, but I am SO looking forward to making the higher tier items. 600hrs = goals for me. Nice! Lol. Your NG+ powers will change the gameplay up as well. Let me know how it goes after NG! Thank you for the comment.
@@SistaCitizen I will do 👍 will probably start NG+ once the Shattered Space DLC comes out ☺
Thank you 👍
You are welcome
you get extra cash from people who pass you by in the cities as you clear out criminals in space and on the planets. you can also get weapons and clothes from some skeep you meet and the money you get can be several thousands, the most i got from a guard is 9000. i love this game and am over 978 hours of playtime now.
I had this happen to me the other day for the first time. A guard gave me money to thank me for my service. It took me off guard so I didnt get to see how much, but how cool is this?! Thanks for the comment!
Love the energy of your video. PS, you can steal other ships that land on other planets as well.
Thanks for the tip!
I appreciate your opinion. Huge NMS & BGS (mods, etc)fan as well, so I was so excited for Starfield. I was enjoying well into the main story & finished dozens of sides. My last straw with Starfield: having an activity objective be almost 1k meters from Cydonia, but because you can’t ACTUALLY land your craft yourself, my ship could only land at Cydonia so I had to walk for nearly two minutes to that objective because there no such thing as land vehicles in this universe, while experiencing NOTHING interesting. Number one video game development sin: wasting players’ time. The constant load screens, terrible user interface/menus & companions constantly jumping into my line of sight during battle, just ground me down as well. Bought BG3 and THAT game values players’ time. Game of the decade.
After NG+ You can traverse long distances at light speed, even fully encumbered without worrying about oxygen, This is what I mean, you need to play the game long enough, as it was intended to be played long term. I get that people want things right away, but its a Bethesda game, the longer you play, the more you unlock, the more everything comes together....that takes time. Its a Bethesda game. Thank you for your comment.
@@SistaCitizenI’m 48. My precious time is valuable, so I require value quantifiably and Starfield as it is just large, unenjoyable chunks of time spent I’d rather invest in a title that rewards every bit of my time, mind & soul with fantastic writing, true player agency & gorgeous world building and holy shit, that has been Baldur’s Gate 3. Been gaming since the early 80s and it has absolutely raised the bar in gaming; it’s my game of the decade. I hope you get to try it after your time in Starfield. Me spending any more time in the game would be masochism for me, but I’m glad you’re enjoying it
Baulders Gate doesn't look like my type of game. The overhead camera and board game like tile space look dated to me. Or like a mobile game from back in the day. Combat isnt immersive do to all the commands and menu items. But I wouldnt take the time to go hate on a video about it, or say "starfield is better" I just dont play it.
good god u said everything i wanted to say, subscribed
also u are right every space game has loading screen in between planets
Exactly. Glad you are liking the game. And welcome Captain 07
This is one of the best rant/review I've seen on starfield. I love the game, I didn't play starfield for the story, I played through the story for the end game. Survival, being self reliant building outposts on different planet's to what you need. It gives you opportunity to learn how to be self reliance in a space environment. It how I see the game
Agreed. Lots of reviews from creators who only played the story missions and barely touched anything else. I played NMS for years and still don't know all of or care about the story. Sounds like we have the same play style. Thank you for the comment Captain.
I love Starfield. I don't care that it has that lonely space exploration feel. The different biomes on planets amaze me and you can find even civilization outpost that aren't marked from space.
The quests were fun too, not all but at least half I really liked. Oh and the ship builder was a huge factor in me loving the game.
It really is awesome. The more you play the more you unlock and discover too. I'm 700hrs in NG 11, and still discovering new things. Thanks for the comment!
There were some missions in this game that were probably some of the best I’ve seen in Bethesda history. Entangled was one of them. That mission was incredible. But once I finished the main game, I started having way more fun because instead of going to Constellation, I just went off to Neon and started my criminal/scoundrel run. And omg, this has been so much more fun than my first honorable playthrough. I joined a gang, survived the streets of Neon and now I’m off doing corporate espionage that I didn’t do in my first playthrough. Killing and stealing and living and smuggling space goods and people. Man it’s so fun.
I can wait to start new RP playthroughs. I want to try to experience it all first so I know what I will be working with for my backstories 😁 Thank you for your comment. Glad you are enjoying the game too!
i did the same but sounds like you have bethesda's script in front of you. There is very short gang questline in neon like three quests and thats it. now gangsters are guards 🤣. There were no "surviving" or violent criminal world. They dont even swear. Rujin was ok. What if you would have crimson fleet hideout in every large city ? No too much work. What if you could assign ship crew ? Yes minimum system that can be in space game. how many different temple puzzles ?..1 How many variations of same POIs ?...1
I liked some things like more dialogue options, but they really think their fans are retarded. "Oooh glowy ball 10000 times gotta get em all derp"
Btw tried to connect xbox controller to phone and play starfield that way. It worked fine. Starfield lore, story is shit also. Enemy variety riddiculous. No evil companion what the hell
There are tons of companions that let you do bad things. Enemy outposts are for farming legendary weapons, fighting other Starborn are the real enemies, and Starborn powers change the whole game, but thanks for your comment that repeats what other people who haven't played the full game say. Skyrim was boring too, until I modded it. Played over 1000 hours of Skyrim, completed the story once. People play Bethesda games to make it their own through RP and mods. The game is not for you...so dont play it 🤷🏾♀@@aumatomos7811
Very good video right here. I tell my friends this game is so good but you have to make your own fun more less. I love walking around scanning planets harvesting ore. Story is ok but after you do it one time there's not much else. Wish they had more paths you can take to see different outcomes in missions but I love fallout type games and this is it. Everything I try to play another game Stsrfield always calls me back. I havent went to new game plus bit on my first character so I started a new one. Love the game tho for sure.
It's computer generated set pieces on the same planet after planet it doesn't matter what planet you go to you going to see the same set pieces just in a different environment That's why people are complaining
The outpost with enemies are for farming Legendary weapons from enemies, is the point of them. Just like in Warframe where you run the same map over and over for the drops, or running a derelict freighter for drops in NMS. Its not for just the sake of combat.
@@SistaCitizenfor exploration however?
@@SistaCitizen I got tired of that flimsy argument too. When people replay the same game over and over again, they run the same content over and over again, and how is that not boring? Anyways, I noticed with the last update that the RNG for the POIs improved so there is more variability. Before the recent update I ran into the same POI not far away in the same landing area, so they appeared to have fixed that issue. They stealthed dropped that improvement. By the way I play on PC with mods.
Good to hear they worked on it. I need to do a legendary farm at the POI's. That's on my to do list. I know what my favorite weapons are now, so I got to get on it to get them to drop. I can't wait to mod my game out. Sadly I will have to wait until they come to console, but I'm hearing good things on how they are improving the gameplay. Thank you for your comment Abraham. Hope to see you around the channel o7 @@abrahambobst4602
Exploration is in space. Not on the planets. Check the random markers that just say "ship" or "asteroid field" or one with just a star for a space battle with legendary ships.@@rogueshay853
While i appreciate that you play the game with an emphasis on outposts and development, the problem is the outposts are a complete afterthought. The whole game can be completed without ever touching the outpost system. No additional gameplay or options are made available, and the only enjoyment that can be gleened is for your own personal enjoyment, but its hard to say its good
Afterthought? its 3 quarters of the game. Settlement building was HUGE in FO4. Crafting and building settlements and player homes is why a lot of people even play Bethesda games. Its not just an RPG. I would argue the whole game could be played without even touching the story. Ive played almost 1000 hrs of FO4 and only went through the story one time. Im curious if you built an intricate outpost system in Starfield. in what way was it an "afterthought" as you built all the modules, manufacturing machines, raising animals, and having your followers and robots you made run them, or repairing them after you have been raided by a gang or roaming pirates, or a Starborn ship full of Starborn lands near it to attack it and you. In what way was it an after thought...or did you just not do it?
I'm with you sista you have a lot of people playing Starfield that aren't having fun with it because they're not playing it right and expecting something different, I mean the first DLC isn't even out yet it's too early in the game's life cycle to give it a bad review, I pre-ordered no man's sky and was one of the few people that was happy with it when it launched but I like designing bases and Mining resources to build improved things.
In a few years it will most likely have a huge following just like Skyrim did people still play Skyrim I play Skyrim when I'm not playing Starfield
Exactly Bloodshot. I still haven't finished the Legend of the Dragonborn mod in Skyrim. And just as many people are still playing Skyrim that are playing RDR2 which is crazy for such an old game. Starfield will be a game Bethesda fans will love for years to come. Thank you for your comment. Fus! Ro! Dah!
I think its great some people are good little bethesda consumers and eat this shit up with a spoon but the writing the loading screens the lack of hand crafted content the fact ships are useless because they dont actually go anywhere the absolutely dreadful face on camera with the slow dialogue leading to no effective role play choices or different outcomes... The quality of bethesda games is taking such a sharp turn down i mean this game is AGGRESSIVELY mediocre and i think we need to hold bethesda accountable for all these terrible design decisions.. "new game plus 10 a thousand hours in and it really picks up" and "modders will fix it" just isnt enough for one of the biggest and most well funded game studios in existence... Anyone with two brain cells to rub together with get mind numbingly bored with this game pretty darn quick and as a huge bethesda fan since morrowind i literally felt robbed after waiting SO long and spending full price on this garbage ass game.
The game is not for you. Dont play it. I personally thought Morrowind was boring. Skyrim too until I modded it.🤷🏿♀️
This was honestly a really good video
Thanks Dirtbiker. Hope you are enjoying the game!🚀
What you do in an hour is a far more important indication about the quality of a game, than how many hours you put in. When gamers say "You've barely scratched the surface", they're not talking about how much time you put into the game. - because you can do 500hrs of "nothing much at all", easily.
Remembering that games are a pro-active experience, not a reactive exercise. A content creator that spent 22hrs on a garden path, only tells me they took a stroll. - To then review the game badly and I'm like, "O'rly, ya don't say" 😃
It’s mediocre. And yes I played the entire thing, and yes I gave it enough time as well. More than enough time. Thank God for Gamepass.. if I paid for it, I might be seriously pissed.
Edit #2: I’ve read your response to some critiques and you’re .. quite the fangirl. I’d say.
Im not a fan girl. I just dont make content for clicks because its popular to hate a game. I have played Bethesda games for years, included fully modded games. I'm not a fan girl, I can spot a good game. Just like RDR2. I knew right away it was a masterpiece, and people said the exact same thing about it as Starfield when it released. It was boring. Just like the hate for NMS when it first came out. I saw the potential. Has nothing to do with fan girl, and has everything to do with recognizing a good game that will last. Not sure if calling me a fan girl is your idea of a burn. If you mean fan girl as in I am well versed on how Bethesda games work and how they are supposed to be played then so be it.
@@SistaCitizenThe irony in your statements. You and everyone else who played RDR2 knew it was great. Thats not something special. A broken clock is right eventually. Maybe you’ve been been Bethesda fan for so long you actually are blind to the fact that they were never a good developer
@@rogueshay853They always seem to look over the fact that the best Fallout games weren’t even made by Bethesda lmao
@@Colonel_Mustsard that’s cause they aren’t fallout fans, they’re Bethesda fans. Which is pretty sad lol
New sub earned. I am not a citizen of the sista
😄 Thanks for the sub, and welcome!
I've around 245 hours, I'm in love with the game. There is alot of stuff to do if you look for it. Most people want a game that already exists. Bugs never bother me (Maybe due to me playing Bethesda games since Daggerfall). The one thing I tell people is take your time, don't NG+ until you do everything. NG+ not only makes the game obj different, it also gives you a TON of unique Dialog seeing as how you already know whats gonna happen. Don't skimp on doing the main story again during one of your NG+ runs!
I would say do the opposite, do NG first if your interested, then when your ready go back and do the other stuff, since if your going to do 10+NG might as well make it your final playthrough you unlock all the stuff.
I thought about that too, but doing NG+ just made me bored after 14 times I almost stopped playing. It wasn't until I settled down and really started to absorb the game and it's lore that I started loving it. Rushing NG+ almost ruined it for me. But you do have a valid point if thats your style.
Great video 100% agreed
Right?! I'm loving the game. Thanks for the comment Bryan🤘🏾🚀👩🏾🚀
Personally, I've been having a blast with Starfield. Can't wait to make mods for it!
Make sure to send me a link to your mod page when you have some mods made!
665 hrs myself
🤘🏾🤘🏾🚀🚀
Yeah, but have you played star citizen? Some big things have happenede recently.
Edit: Come to think of it Sista Citizen seems likely to be a play on the name Star Citizen.
I have played Star Citizen, however my name is from a book title. Coincidence, lol. Thank you for the comment.
I couldn't the saves failed at 100 hours....After trying every known fix on a high end PC...The only thing left is to give up. (Which is what I have done) Loved the game up to that point...Bethesda tried to help. Sadly I had almost zero bugs.
Bummer Dave. I try to delete unnecessary quicksaves, and auto saves. Turning off Autosave in Bethesda games is a good Idea so your saves don't get bloated. Just a tip if you decide to return to the game. Thanks for the comment!
@@SistaCitizen yeah unfortunately there isn't any known thing that haven't tried. Twice Bethesda gave me a whole list of new things.
I'm not even have way through this review and I am amazed at how we play this game different yet we both enjoy it! Starfield will be remember!
Exactly how it is meant to be played. Many different ways. You get it.😎
there's levels to it
How much bethesda paid this channel to li ck its boots
I wish, but thank you for the comment.
There are a massive amount of smaller TH-camrs that have reviewed and gone through side quests just have to find them. Some are better than the main quest line but are flavor text quest so still D-tier missions. Bethesda dropped the ball. That is all.
Yes I played the full story and multiples factions quest lines.. it’s horrible, the writing and how you affect what’s around you literally DOES NOT MATTER! No man’s sky or Star citizen here I come lol, if you have to play this much of a game to even enjoy it I’m cool lol
But did you build anything? Master the ship building (which you cant do in NMS, you cant even change the color of your ship) Build interlinking outpost, that the robots and your followers look after? Did you build biomes and raise plants and animals, then protect them from pirate raids, or repair your outposts after being attacked by a gang of Starborn? Set up your defenses? Understand the ship weapon systems and unlocked all the parts, that unlock up to lvl 300? Or did you just play the story and faction quests? Curious. I played Star Citizen, its a buggy mess that if you dont have a 4090, you cant even run it. But thank you for your opinion on the storylines.
@@SistaCitizen lol no I don’t want to have to play for 200 hours to get to the actual fun stuff.. that’s the point
@@SistaCitizen re read this and actually change the color of my ship was like the first thing I did so idk what your talking about…
Since when can you recolor your ships in NMS? The community has always been against it because of the players who like ship hunting wanting to find unique ships. Freighters yes, ships no.
@@SistaCitizen I play with mods on PC lol I’ve never played the vanilla NMS so I didn’t know it wasn’t in the vanilla game, starfield has better ship building, that’s it lolz
All that matters if you enjoy it . If you do then you got your moneys worth . I love rdr 2 I have like 2300 hrs since it released. Ppl hate that gene but I don’t .
Honestly, I'm just glad to hear that someone else is enjoying their time with the game. Cheers!
Cheers Robert! And thanks for the comment!
I love starfield. It's awesome 💯💯💯
This game simply ismt good and is a step backwards in so many ways. It fails tondo things games they made 20 years ago did. This is feels loke the laziest effort they have ever produced.
I think players these days are lazy, and want fun packaged and handed to them with all the rewards right away. Not how Bethesda games work. What things does it fail to do? I can name 10 things it does No Mans Sky Doesn't, or ME, or Elite. Other than being able to land your ship on a procedurally generated planet with no separate biomes, and all the resources available in the tile in front of you like NMS, what doesn't it do?
@@SistaCitizen I'm certainly not that kind of player, Im more than happy to work for character progression but it needs to be fun doing so. The game fails to allow any sort of real choice. Pick any dialouge option and you'll get the same ending. This game has the most on rails story to date and has the most npc flagged as crucial of any of their games further limiting player choice. The procedural generation is uninspired and boring. You'll get the same couple of points of interest on any given planet copy and pasted across all of them so the only reason to explore is to collect resources for a crafting and settlement system that feels tacked on and basically pointless. And don't get me started on the guns. You're basically stuck between ballistic guns or three variants of an energy gun and melee is even worse. Every melee weapon has the exact same attack speed thus rendering any sort of unique melee build being possible. You just get more damage and zero strategy. The sci-fi element of this game is utterly unimaginative. How is our future so low tech when we have grav drives? Where's the advanced AI, or robotics that at least look better than what Boston Dynamics is currently doing. They have legit built robots as advanced as Vosco now. The game is imperically worse than their previous efforts.
Love this take on Starfield. I'm really enjoying it so far and I haven't even touched on outposts, or shipbuilding yet.
The most negative review I've seen so far, the dude had only played 12 hours. Gee, at that point I hadn't done much at all.
Exactly James, 12 hrs in I was still trying to finalize how my character looked😆 Thanks for the comment!
I love to see the love
i think after 40 hours you can say if a game is good or bad no matter what game it is.
40hrs for a Bethesda game isnt even scratching the surface. You even saying that is ridiculous. Skyrim was trash when it released, until mods and DLC's. Starfield has been out 4 months. Go play whatever weird game that is on your channel. 40 hrs 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@SistaCitizen mods is one thing that shouldn't even be considered when buying a game, dlc? sure. but dlc costs extra.
4 months, while it isn't a long time to fix some issues the game might have, it would be completely understandable if the game came with some bugs. fair. however, it's not an early access game. this game should be held to a higher standard when it comes to in-game content. the planets are barren, the quests are lackluster, the polish is weak at best. honestly, 40 hours is more than enough for any game, and that's coming from somebody who's played all the fallout series except for fallout 76 and all of the elder scrolls games and i've enjoyed most of them, that doesn't mean that this game doesn't suck, just like fallout 76 sucks. it's a mess, it's overpriced for the experience compared to other games, and quite frankly, bethesda can do better.
I saw a lot of comparison between Starfield and Cyberpunk... two totally different games, i have no other words 😂
It is a story-based RPG so having a bad/meh story is actually important. Skyrim was boring but doable. My issue w/ Starfield is the laziness with the exploration. In Skyrim/Fallout you could just walk around and find stuff that was interesting, but Starfield only has fast travel and doesn’t let you just walk. When it does, it is almost always boring and empty planets. My favorite part of Starfield was the ship builder, and like you, I have spent SO much time (30hours +) just doing that. Its a pain you cant see the interior of the ships before committing to a design, or that you can’t swap parts from one ship to another. Starfield did reignite my love and passion for Mass Effect though and it amazes me how much better (in certain aspects, not all) ME was. Not having vehicles to explore cripples Starfields boring world exploration; even though ME is also boring to explore, there are unique things to discover and the Mako helps speed up exploration. Exploring only on foot w/ a jet pack was a TERRIBLE decision. I very much liked your video however; will subscribe!
I think, like I said in my video, people Keep using the word "explore" and like your ME example. The vehicle in ME was meant to take you to the next enemy base, and if I recall correctly, the bases were full of the same enemies. There was no real "discovery." What ME had going for it is the story. I also outlined what the empty planets in Starfield are for. Real question: What is the goal of your exploration? Meaning, if you find a random creature lets say, what do you want to do, get with that information? In Starfield, the purpose is to build, and turn it into long term money, which is what all Bethesda games are, for long term play. And if you play long enough, with NG plus powers, and boost pack upgrades, you can clear long distances in no time, fully encumbered. Did you level up to that? Respectfully asking.
@@SistaCitizen Mass Effect actually had interesting characters you gave a shit about, and I dare say the combat in ME2 (a game that came out in 2010) is better than starfield. Also a sci-fi game not having any Alien races is weak.
I think the conversation about Starfield will be dramatically different in 6 months. I love the base game. But the way I look at Starfield is it's really ripe for modders to go nuts with it. The landing points systems means that there are almost countless spots for modders to create hand crafted content. Imagine, for example, being able to pick a custom landing point that lands you next to a biodome that has New Vegas city contained within. I'm very much looking forward to the creation kit dropping in early 2024.
SAME! Thank you for your comment!
if you need moders to fix the base game to make it fun, the game is garbage
Then Skyrim is garbage too. That game was boring to me until I modded it. Same with FO. In fact a lot of people felt that way when those games were released. The only reason millions still play Skyrim, or any Bethesda game is because of the mods. What's your point? @@CaliforniaSolder
❤ Starfield..its beautiful and lovable and enjoyable 👌✌️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
If you want to withhold a conclusive opinion on a product that demands probably 1,000 or more hours of your life to 100%, that's perfectly fine.
But judging it after 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 hours is also fine. If I look at the Mona Lisa for ten minutes and it doesn't do anything for me, where's the sense in spending another 30 minutes trying to find the subtle places it "gets good?"
Starfield's flaws are readily apparent and do not disappear after 500 hours. If you can't get over them in 10 hours, there's no reason to believe you will after 50 hours, and there should be no gatekeeping in creating critical content by locking it off until you play x amount of hours.
If that content creator didn't put in enough time for their opinion to move you, that's cool too.
Its not just a "product" its a Bethesda game, which is intended to be played for hundreds if not thousands of hrs to experience everything. A content creator who makes a "full review" even after 100 isnt experiencing the game. Ive almost spent that learning the ship building. So I disagree with your product analogy. But thank you for your comment.
@@SistaCitizenbad argument. If they aren’t experiencing the game, at 10, 20, 50, 100 hours then what are they doing? Are they not playing the game? How is it that other games manage to pull players in the universe without having to make them wait over 100 hours to actually start having fun? There’s no way that’s a real argument you’re using. There’s no point in releasing a game that doesn’t allow the player to have fun unless they spend hundreds of hours. The only thing you keep mentioning is shipbuilding. Shipbuilding isn’t the only thing in the game. There’s a reason this game didn’t win a single award. There’s a reason the reviews are mostly negative. It’s not a good game.
My take on it is if you’re a Bethesda fan through and through, meaning you’ve played the Elder Scrolls & Fallout titles, Starfield will feel just like home with a bunch of new features added. Most people who play Bethesda games know what they’re getting with Starfield. I have over 250 hours and still have a lot of quests I haven’t done yet. I can’t wait for the creation kit to come out, that’s where this game will take off (literally and figuratively)
Facts😎 I think they have really improved the building system a lot. And the ship building is just an added unexpected bonus. Glad you are enjoying the game. I cant WAIT for the mods on console! Thanks for the comment😁
Exactly right. If you're a true Bethesda fan, Starfield feels great. I'm at about 200 hours and there's no end in sight for me
We already mod the game using xedit, and its already 10x times better
Mind naming a few? I would love to see what people are dowloading. Favorites?@@StefanHighlights-InquisitorOvh
Not really, sure, Starfield has a lot of the features from FO or TES, but dumbed down, made worse, like theres now only a couple pieces of armor wich and fewer weapons, wich makes looting less rewarding, the perks syste is horrible, the exploration sucks, base building somehow is more pointless than in FO4, space combat is just a damage sponge simulator, it just boils down to numbers, theres 0 strategy just mind numbing clicking, while ship building is cool and maybe the only good feature, having a ship is almost pointless, the cities are few and so poorly designed, they are so big and yet have so little content or appeal, Cowboy city in space? Really? is that the only thing they could come up with? Neon city? Its like they are on creative banckrupcy, combat was made worse too, no gore, and it was reduced to a fps dynamic with bullet sponge enemies with cheese for a brain. Your only concern during battles is running out of ammo since AI is brain dead. I could go on and on but ill leave it at this: Starfield is one of the worst games developed this year, just above Gollum and that king kong BS.

Boring Combat? And dumb AI? Yes the regular enemies are, but after NG+, lots of exciting things happen at your outposts. th-cam.com/video/NpCcYgMTg3k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ev7rG4o8298G6YDs
