Everyone in the comments, please pray for The Elder Scrolls 6. This does not look good…
Man I would hope that elden ring and Zelda have an impact on TES VI but I just can't believe in Bethesda anymore
I already lost hope
I lost hope years ago. It will be pretty. The combat will be fun. The story is gonna suck major ass
@@manuelchinchilla1907 get zelda out of there and put baldurs gate 3 in. skyrim has better exploration than zelda, has a better open world than zelda, has better side quests than zelda, has better world building than zelda, has better story and lore than zelda. Zelda, botw and totk are the most overrated open world games of all time.
@@manuelchinchilla1907 The Wayward Realms is backing us up anyway. It's a game created by the fathers of The Elder Scrolls. The perfect replacement for Bethesda.
The Elder Scrolls VI is cooked.
Elder Scrolls VI will at least have interesting lore and locations. Starfield is just bland af.
@@Scattman101 Yeah, after Fallout 76 and Starfield I wouldn't bet on it.
They ether need better writers, new management, or both
After listening to countless critiques and being a fan of Bethesda for 15 years, yeah definitely both. Frankly it kind of makes me hope the IP's are handed off to a more competent company. I'm tired of waiting for Bethesda to get it together.
Not looking good brav
Vanilla Starfield: Dog ate my homework
Shattered Space: Actually I don't even have a dog. lol, lmao even
When BGS said they wanted to go in a different direction from their past legendary games was a huge indicator
So Starfield base game has you constantly being told you can't touch the corporations, they're invincible and everything has to be done their way or the quest won't proceed, and this DLC says you have to listen to the fanatical religious people and they're all right too
They are conditioning us for something...
@@vaevictis2789 to stop being stupid
The hardcore religious zealots are the most based characters in the game. Love the Hardline Varuun. In fact, I wish the mainline Varuun houses were more fundamentalist, kinda like the Fremen of Dune. By far the best faction. *edited for spelling.
@vaevictis2789 I wonder if there any modern equivalents of mass killing, self mutilation and worship of clearly demonic beleif systems they are trying to get us to view as positive?
@@vaevictis2789They’re conditioning us for nothing, stop looking into everything because you’re a weirdo
And for some odd reason we had to wait a whole year for this... Bruv.
R.I.P TES VI.
Phantom Liberty was honestly better than the main story of CP2077. Starfield doesn't hold a candle to it.
I mean I loved phantom liberty, but better than the main story is a stretch..
Still no third person mode though. And stopped with the dOeSn'T hOlD a cAnDlE bs already, back then people said the same things with Witcher 3 and Fallout 4. It was retarded back then and still is. They are different game ffs.
Maybe not better, that's very subjective, but it is definitely more cohesive and focused. @@LOLstickvid
Phantom liberty was way too short though
lmao you mean the game the devs had to spend another entire dev cycle on!?
Cyberpunk doesn't deserve to be compared to ANY other game, because NO other game got a whole second dev cycle thrown at it...
I said elsewhere that Bethesda devs are the problem, not the engine. If it was the engine, why can modders make miracles while the paid and vested devs turn out dog water? Having Bethesda switch to ue5 or whatever is simply like downloading the unofficial patch for any Bethesda game and calling it a day. It won't fix the mid gameplay, mid writing, mid art direction, mid concepting, and bloated prices. Why? Because shit devs will make shit regardless if you give them a bespoke engine or a NASA grade super program. Source? Modern high quality mods for previous titles. Just look at ttw, the cod weapon and anim packs, overhauls, fallout London for Bunguses sake... The engine is fully capable of being bug free, fun gameplay, and good systems. You ain't gonna see any of it in a Bethesda office... And this is coming from someone with thousands and thousands of hours on these titles. Bethesda as we want it is long gone, my gooners, long gone. 🤓
Fallout London was most definitely NOT bug free at the start… at launch many couldn’t even play it due to frequent crashes that had to be patched.
Valid and fair. But then again, how much of that can be reliably said to be the London devs when fallout 4 also dropped the mod breaking 'next gen update' coincidentally?
@@LOLstickvidthat's not the engines fault. It was Bethesda's fault for updating their game and breaking all other mods.
The engine is part of the problem. Obviously it has technical limitations, but there's another problem. Let's say you're a top tier game dev looking for a new job. Company A is working with unreal pushing it to it's limits: that's a transferable skill you can take to your next job. Then Company B is using Creation Engine - it's effectively a dead end in the job market. No one is going to hire you for that job experience if they've a choice of candidates that do have relevant experience. Bethesda's engine and their tumbling reputation is *why* they don't get the best devs. All they have to offer is nostalgia, and that doesn't pay the rent.
Doom still uses a heavy modified version of id Tech. The difference is id Software are tech wizards, Bethesda devs really are not.
Bethesda really needs to hire some actual writers. Their piecemeal, designers-as-writers model may have been adequate (and only just adequate) when working in an established franchise with existing lore, but their attempt to create a universe from the ground up really highlights the weakness of their writing.
I mean did we expect anything better? Did we REALLY?
Maybe not better, but the price for this is insanely bad value.
Many people were under impression that bethesda actually understood the criticism of starfield regarding space and planets exploration, untapped lore, unsatisfying ending, quantity and quality of quests. Its not like they expected the game to be magically fixed from top to bottom, but rather hoped that expansion will bring large enough territory with good exploration and questing while giving answers atleast some important questions about the lore. Also polishing existing mechanics, bringing some new ones and adding a noticable amount of new gear (weapons, armor, modules, ships etc) were pretty reasonable expectations too. But meh, its bethesda after all
@@vaevictis2789 yea Only fools believe companies change for the better anymore....
It gave a similar vibe to Far Harbor, which was awesome. Unfortunately, the vibe is all the share, and even that is barely replicated.
This expansion is really weird when you think about it. Bethesda marketed it as something different, big, unique, and people speculated that it would save starfield. Yet it's clear they didn't throw everyone at it to make it epic. The "handcrafted planet" is just the main city area, that from the footage looks plain and empty in a lot of areas. Even the city itself has barely anyone there.
Basically what Bethesda did was look at all the feedback they got for the game and went "You know what? They're wrong." and they just did the same thing again. I don't understand it. Is there a culture of toxic positivity at Bethesda? This seems to be the case with them getting employees to reply to negative reviews telling them they don't understand the game. It's bizarre.
I'll be honest, the biggest issue with exploring the handcrafted area is the semi-solution to the horrendous exploration in the full procedural base-game. Because the base game generates points-of-interest so far from one another to create a sense of scale, exploration on release was a horribly boring slog, requiring you to run for minutes on end to get to the same copy-pasted building.
Before the release of the DLC, they introduced the Rev-8, a vehicle that could rapidly travel across Starfield's barren, boring worlds, effectively cutting down the minutes of running between the same copy-pasted buildings to 30 seconds or less. This didn't make exploration more fun, but it at least made it less boring, I suppose?
Now, with the release of Shattered Space, Bethesda has handcrafted an area for traversal with the Rev-8 in mind. So now, the massive distances and empty spaces between POIs are because the game expects you to just turbo boost towards every location in the handcrafted world. Ironically, the Rev-8 now makes natural, slow-paced, on foot exploration that could allow a player to stumble into interesting secrets or unmarked locations unlikely, so it seems Bethesda just foregoes them entirely.
Bethesda might have improved the horrendous procedurally generated content with the Rev-8, but the Rev-8 makes handcrafted areas genuinely worse because you are incentivized to speed through everything. The one upside to the handcrafted area is that the POIs are unique and are genuinely a big improvement on the game on that front, but the game still has no solution to make exploration fun, it just made it quicker. There is no need to explore, it is literally just a means to get to the next POI highlighted on your scanner. It might as well just be a loading screen to each isolated POI.
Until they suffer badly financially, nothing will improve.
they learned through fo76 that lots of you will consume absolute putrid slop so they decreased their standards even more. will microsoft ever intervene? i wish there was more dialogue on this, microsoft needs to hand off the fallout/elder scrolls IPs to another studio.
They never said the entire planet was handcrafted. That would be absurd and pointless (and an unnecessary waste of time), they said the handcrafted stuff was the expansion content, referencing the area, dazra, and points of interest where the dlc events take place. Each point of interest is distinctive and unique, inviting exploration in a more interesting way than in the base game, something players have asked for and the studio has provided.
@@jfkst1if anything, what we may need for Bethesda to improve is for someone to do what they do. Competition does make people less stagnant in their work ethics for sales.
That’s why I sorta stick with BGS despite things. No one out there really is making a CAC (Create-a-character) FP-RPG like Bethesda and doing sandbox stuff. I think a good contender so far is BG3, especially given how they now released a modding tool for the game.
Funniest part of the DLC is when you go into the Unity. They just never reference the DLC or give it a spot among the other endings.
Even funnier is there is just ONE ENDING. They give you some interesting choices near the end but they never made good on them.
I enjoyed Starfield quite a bit, and was super excited to find out more about the Va'ruun, but I hesitate at dropping $30 for content that I'd be done with in a day. That could get me a couple good singleplayer indie titles that combined give me ten times more playtime and far more variety, or even a full game like Cyberpunk 2077 on sale.
I'm arguably the target audience for this DLC and I can't even justify buying it... My hopes for TESVI are fading quickly.
Bethesda has never made me regret pre-ordering a game as much as they have with this one. It's really not even that bad, just incredibly bland and repetitive. So you can try to have fun with it, but it gets stale so fast compared to their other games. I just end up feeling like I would rather play anything else in their line up from Moorrowind and up every time I revisist Starfield.
I can’t believe Bethesda peaked with Skyrim
Oblivion was my first experience with BGS, I fell in love immediately, I think I was 12yo when I played it, 31yo now
Peak of Bethesda was oblivion fallout 3 Skyrim
oblivion*
Bethesda peaked with Oblivion. Not skyrim. Skyrim is shallow with boring story and characters (except few) and lack of many many role playing featuers and choices. Only reason it is popular is because of modding community and its good worldbuilding.
this should have been a side quest in the base game, not a $40 expansion
A side quest? It’s a whole new gigantic hand crafted area.
well it doesn't cost 40$ ...

I hate Bethesda and anyone still giving them money.
@@TheGreatOne-gw7xh hate? That’s a strong word for people you don’t know.
Its been many years since people tirelessly saying and shouting to Bethesda that they should Fired Emil Pagliarulo and contact with the guy who made Morrowind's Story and Lore/World ASAP for TES6.
Bethesda can't create good story anymore even if they hired him. Why? Because a good story requires controversy and risks to handle.
If Morrowind was made today, they wouldn't have Dunmers making argonians and khakits slaves or even using word "slave" at all. They would call Vivec a "trans person" instead of calling him "a duality of nature, having genetalia of both male and female".
For Oblivion, they wouldn't call Pelinal Whitestrake "A Divine Crusader"because that makes a Chrostian reference and is offensive to Muslims. They wouldn't have him slaughtering and massacaring elves either.
That is only scratching the surface
.
I didn't even finish it i just went back to my old backlog.
I remember seeing one of those engagement bait "what do you want in Fallout 5?" posts on Reddit not too long ago and the only thing I could think of was 'a different developer.'
A part of me feels like it would be wrong for Xbox to just step in and take the IP off Bethesda but they've genuinely squandered them.
Starfield was the perfect blank canvas for Bethesda to make WHATEVER THE HELL THEY WANTED. No lore nerds to appease or New Vegas fanboys to contend with. They could've made anything, it just had to have some of that Bethesda magic. And they failed to deliver. Again.
AAA prices. Indie studio delivery😂😂😂
You’re extremely right about the dlc. I remember when I finished the last mission and noticed I didnt get anymore main quests, I was like “Thats it?”. It definitely was a very short experience that didn’t really add much to the game imo. I never cared about this faction in the base game but the dlc makes me care even less about them. It is pretty unfortunate.
This is purely an issue of direction. Bethesda's writing team has been a miserable waste of payroll for over a decade. What starfield really needed was new features. Atmospheric flight, drivable mechs, etc. but Shattered Space is just more of the same boring poorly written story with 2 new weapons and a few new outfits. They didn't even add new ship parts FFS. I'm not even going to bother buying this one until it's heavily discounted and required by some cool new mods I want to play. Bethesda had better step up their game if they want my money.
I have a better question. What is Bethesda's obsession with arachnid creatures. Like wtf, a entirely new planet with a chance to create unique new encounters and hey more space spiders. Wtf+!? At this point I'd welcome actual xenomorphs and predators. 😒
The same reason why they could create any kind of civilization, either human or alien, taking any of the many human cultures as an inspiration or create something completely new but they did generic Star Trek like sci-fi and cowboy larpers in space:
A complete lack of creativity
@@rodrigobogado8756 couldve been stargate, but no, they gave us safe star trek
Efficiency, I guess. Having different creatures with the same "skeleton" might streamline the development process. Basically they are just changing the appearance, and eventually the creatures have similar movement and behavior.
first steam review I saw for it was "I didnt play it but I'm sure it's bad" and that kinda spoke to the entire community for me, not willing to give stuff a shot anymore.
I hate that type of shit. It waters down criticism
I mean, Starfield sucks though.
Can't blame em thou a lot of trash heaps of games are out there now adays
Why play a game if you know it's going to suck?
They released a game with zero meat for $60. I have zero sympathy for Bethesda at this point. Their games have been getting progressively worse and watered down since Fallout 3. The only reason people buy their games these days is because of the mods, and Bethesda knows that.
Your best part was the end, but you didn't say how you DONT have to fight a single npc, you can run right past them, and the final boss, did you want to join him.... OH WAIT you can't, you can only kill him,
The only way ES6 will be good is if they replace Emil Pagliarulo, and we know they won't. I really hope we can somehow get them to replace him, I really REALLY want ES6 to be good.
I remember going to Markarth and Windhelm the first times way back when Skyrim was new and amazing.
I remember crawling through every nook and cranny, intrigued by every door and hovel. I remember talking to anyone who would give me the time of day, and being amazed how they all actually had names instead of a bunch of 'Markarth Resident' or whatever. I remember actually WANTING to engage with the world around me, because it was all interesting.
Now, I won't claim a good part of it isn't that I'm old and crusty now, I absolutely am, but I just... don't feel that, for something like Starfield. Maybe it was because I was playing it on my cousin's computer and thus I wasn't really as invested as if I had got it myself, maybe I had already subconsciously accepted that I didn't like Starfield before even touching it, but I just... wasn't interested in anything going on. Nothing grabbed me, nothing made me want to dig deeper, nothing on the maps caught my eye and made me go 'oooh, let's look there!' There were no nooks and crannies for me to dig through any more. No doors I saw out of the corner of my eye that I wanted to go in that I wasn't already being directed to. No one I wanted to talk to, not even the people I HAD to talk to.
I just... didn't care for anything Starfield offered.
i don’t think it’s just ‘cause you’re older; there’s definitely a massive dip in quality with Starfield in comparison to Skyrim. and i don’t think it’s just from looking at Skyrim with “rose-tinted glasses” either.
i remember there was a video i watched, about Starfield, that talked about how any time you approached an NPC, even if they were in the middle of a convo, that all NPC would stop and stare at you. which can create this sort of hollow, uncanny feeling to the game because the only thing that ends up mattering is you, the player, rather than whatever the NPC is doing or even the world at large. it basically feels like none of the characters have their own lives, stories or dialogue outside of talking to the Player, which then makes everything SO bland.
as you pointed out, when going through Skyrim, which i absolutely love that game, you wanted to learn EVERYTHING. from the characters to the landscape to the cities and villages because the NPC/ locations exist outside of just the Player existing. these characters and places don’t simply exist to fill the player’s time, it’s there with the feeling of having a sense of purpose. there’s that feeling of history, of things that happen with or without you around, before you were ever even placed into that world. which, in turn, it creates a sense of wonder and excitement.
tldr: it’s just so upsetting to see Bethesda crank out such a lifeless game that could have had a lot potential in the right hands :(
starfield barely has any unique loot. in skyrim you could find something in a hovel that you couldnt find anywhere else. the most unique loot in starfield is given to you on NG+ and its a ship you cant even customize, which was one of the best parts of the game. even fallout 4 with its randomly generated legendaries has not only unique weapons and armor, but unique clutter decorations in certain explorable locations, things you dont see anywhere else.
that is what gives the player a reason to explore and do the questlines, the *potential* of the possible rewards motivates you to keep searching, to see if you missed anything.
in starfield you can buy everything in the game from the first general store if you refresh it enough times at a high enough level.
@@unkosherfood We must've played different Skyrim's, because while it did have some unique items, it was also the game that established Bethesda's now routine of 'unique' items that have the same effects as others found in the world.
For every Wuuthrad you have one or more pieces that're just named blacksmithing projects. Oh boy, Mjoll's Grimsever has a basic ass frost enchantment, how cool and special Todd.
@@username1660 oh skyrims uniques were definitely lackluster even compared to what was available in previous titles, but at least there were enough of them and they were interesting enough to give that feeling of there still being parts of the game you hadnt discovered yet.
im trying to make the point that starfield didnt even do that.
in skyrim there was at least enough to decorate a player housing with, starfield has a ship thats basically a mobile home but nothing of note to put on display.
@@unkosherfood I mean I'll go to bat for Starfield *a little bit*, there are quite a lot of unique items that can be used as trophies and decor, it's just that they're mostly miscellaneous items as opposed to Skyrim's actual unique gear & equipment.
Only Todd and Emil left from the originals, and Todd told Matty he is not so hands on anymore. Rest of the team are modders like elianora and "modern gaming" developers
He should put someone like Enai Siaion at the helm, with Nicolas Lietzau as head writer.
The modders and whatever 'modern' is supposed to mean are probably the ones doing the better work. Historically it's been upper management and decision makers like Emil Pagliarulo's absolutely asinine design philosophy that's lead us to where we're at now.
Food for thought, Fallout 76 is still doing interesting stuff right now and most can point to Wastelanders being where it started improving. Coincidentally this was when Pagliarulo started moving off the project.
It's alright guys don't worry, because the next Bethesda game to come out will probably be entirely AI generated! 😂 This was a joke.. but now that I think about it, it'll probably do a better job.
Gets even better: I've seen with another Tuber how the most self sabotaging options don't actually have an ending. If you choose to Submit to the Speaker at the glowy gate thingy, your character kneels down and the screen fades to black before the game loads your last checkpoint - there is no "bad" ending choice for the player.
Also, you can''t actually kill any named NPCs until their dialogue option specifically says [ATTACK] - they're always invulnerable to death before you've chosen that dialogue option with them.
After this dlc, I really hope bethesda just drops support and content development for this game, just full on cold turkey.
Its honestly not worth even _trying_ to fix at this point.
What’s broken?
After this dlc I hope Bethesda is shutdown for good. Also your profile picture is garbage.
@@LOLstickvid What works?
Let the modders cook and then they can try to improve it
How about you just play other games and leave this one to those of us that actually enjoy it. I'm not over here wishing the games you enjoy be cut off from funding and development, so please kick rocks.
On one hand I’m really sad Bethesda has become such a joke and lost of remnants of magic they once had. On the other, I’m happy that as a result a lot of gamers are becoming wiser, asking questions, not just blindly hopping onto hype-trains. Kinda like when that first love/crush finally breaks up with you and now you feel a little depressed, but you’re also learning what real love is vs naive love
I like how they didn't add new ship parts, the one thing everyone likes about the game. Fucking hell bethesda.
They should put all 1000 planets content into 10 planetary system, maybe it worked better, but all empty planets is boring
And somehow you missed the core issues that Starfield is suffering from. First it’s not getting the core game treatment. This really isn’t by itself but it becomes a major issue when there’s far too much bloat which leads to the second major problem. Starfield suffers from way too much bloat. I will not be surprised if modders are expected to fill in all of that space somehow which leads to the final issue that won’t be going away anytime soon. Bethesda relies on modders way too much and it shows. Quite literally Starfield is a better experience when modders get their hands on the tools necessary to fix things. It’s just too obvious now.
Dazra conveniently got nuked so bethesda wouldn't have to make an actual city
Also at the end the zealots attack the citadel for some reason and chrome dome decides to nuke the citadel again. If you play along you just fucking die, completely invalidating the earlier choice on weather to activate the weird ghost things or shut off their life support (not really sure why ghosts need life support, also weird they can't interact with their surroundings unless it's you or the guns they brought into the shadow realm with them)

You can tell Bethesda didn't make this DLC because they wanted to, but merely because they had to hold up the facade that the game hasn't been abandoned for ages.
Press F For Elder Scroll VI.
Todd Howard needs an intervention.
He needs some friends and close associates to lock him in a room, sit him down, look him in the eye and tell him that if he doesn’t change his ways, TES6 is probably going to bomb as well.
Ah man. I knew it wouldn't help but I hoped.
0:10 I was actually playing Oblivion 😂
If Starfield "gameplay" is a 9/10 then I guess pretty much any other game on average is a 10/10
No. I'm really sick of the type of people who keep trying to "show what a real good game is". Get a life, or at least actually recommend a game that's actually comparable. Cyberpunk 2077 is not a space game and No Man Sky is not an RPG.
we've all had 20+ years to notice that Bethesda's Creation Engine products only decline in quality; remarkably, fans still have high hopes for ES6. they are ideal customers, the kind who are incapable of learning
Finally a true honest review, no shilling just pure honesty.
Appreciate that. I wanna be honest because shills are the reason company's think mediocrity is okay. I want to see Bethesda succeed, I've been a huge bethesda fan, but they'll never learn if people just keep telling them "it's good enough"
they really need to get rid of Emil
Cool to see Duit back at it again. Haven’t seen him since he used to do the videos on ESO
Sad part was that the herald said she saw two different paths but there was only the good ending
We can't let Bethesda get away with this. Boycott ES6
03:40 everyone in starfield has the lips of a blowfish
Problem is though that they have to do this in order to have their mute blank slate protagonist.
Your protagonist can't be an active participant in the story if they don't have any character.
I had a feeling that this expansion was just going to be content they held back from the original base game.

@@jeremiahjohnson2784 I think Starfield has much better writing than Skyrim. A lot of major quests in Starfield give you moral choices on how to complete them, Skyrim doesn't have any. Paarthurnax being the most infamous example.
@@null40404 That's not even counting the side quests that also do that. And don't even get me started on the depth of character interactions compared to Skyrim's 2 questions per character.
@@4badlisting650 Starfield does have better writing than Skyrim which is shocking. The actual issues is that Starfield in general is overly bloated and Bethesda officially relies on modders to fix every short coming they can come up with. Anyway Shattered Space is decent enough. Not worth 30$ (yay Xbox) but it isn’t a total rip off either.
However the fact remains the Bethesda we know from Skyrim doesn’t exist. They completely rely on modders to fix the issues for them and will only release content to keep people invested. Don’t be surprised when people end up downloading story mods just to keep things interesting.
@@TheGeoCheese How does Bethesda rely on modders? They have added in multiple things players have asked for; Better surface maps, eat button, more gameplay options, harder difficulty, a vehicle, etc...
They even unpatched a bug they fixed and implemented it into the game as a feature because players asked for it to be unpatched. I fail to see how Bethesda relies on modders.
They wrote a book, and you got to tag along, and have it read for you.
What I'm getting is that somebody had a vision for the DLC, hence the beginning and end being good, but never bothered to flesh out everything in between so they just crammed it with filler and hoped no one would care. I feel like this is Bethesda's MO : So close to something good, great even, but for some indecipherable reason, they choose to be subpar due to lack of effort.
Starflied, please stop haunting me. 100 i'll never get back
I reinstalled starfield a few hours ago, along with the new 30$ dlc, and it's already uninstalled.
For me personally, I would have much preferred Bethesda to expand the whole universe, with new quests , whole new regions of space and new mechanics. Rather than one new planet and everything new happens on it.
I agree, this was the first time ever I actually started skipping through dialogue. Just didn't care about the world, the characters, or really anything. Wanted to like it but I just couldn't. Also the fact that it forces you to join a religion is.. odd.. Not to mention having to listen to their religious talk for minutes on end. You'd think there would be other options in a Bethesda RPG.
I was waiting to see how this dlc was before even thinking about getting Starfield, but now I’m not sure if I would get it even at a deep discount.
$40!?! For that?? What? That’s insulting.
The outer Worlds is so much better with only one planetary system
this DLC just has me wondering if Bethesda is gonna keep trying with Starfield, or if their owners are gonna tell them to knock it off
Starfields dialogue is some of the worst I’ve ever seen. Going from that to BG3 is like going from a lunchables to a 5 course meal
I literally couldnt get through the first hour after getting to dazra it became a dialogue simulator of a dlc
"RPG has too much dialogue!"
Suppose I should have expected this after "Space is too empty!"
@@97Crazysteverpg has too much boring dialogue
There is not a single major dev who worked on Morrowind, Oblivion or Skyrim except Emil and Todd.
BGS is something else now, something terrible, and TES and Fallout are toast
Bethesda is cooked. This DLC is so small it literally could of been a mod
This may seem like nothing to English-speaking players, but as a French, the minute I started the DLC and noticed the companions had different voice actors compared to the base game, I knew it would be... another average Starfield experience. Honestly, I feel lost by the game. There are parts of it that I love and care about, like the SysDef / Crimson fleet questline. It makes me wonder why the game wasn't like this for everything else, with something that has more background and research overall.
It feels non-cohesive at best. Even if I'm not a fan of all the multiple universes thing, they could have done better stuff, like altering quests in a much bigger way than just adding a small dialogue option where you can say specific stuff because you "know things."
I found it ironic when I used my powers on my NG+, but no one cared about it at Constellation. But when you discover the first temple, people are like, "Wait, you have powers now?" The game isn't bad, but while they were working on it, they didn't know where the story would end up and evolve. Many things look like patchwork, as if that game is just a storyboard where multiple pieces collide and try to work.
I spend many hours playing the game because I love sci-fi and RPGs. I swear, the minute the new Mass Effect or a similar title comes out, I'll move on and never look back. It's not Skyrim, where just listening to the music would bring me heaps of nostalgia.
Im wondering if most people even played through it. Im enjoying the hell out of it. Beautiful dark landscape, the combat is pretty fun with the vortex phantoms too. Im bummed people arent enjoying it as much as i am.
Imagine a game so bad that not even modders care to fix it.
I am still trying to understand what Starfield is and should be. It has and does so much but not enough. Wide puddle that is still quite shallow.
all I heard after watching this video is that I should go play cyberpunk again
me too
You need to be out of touch with reality to call starfields gameplay "great"
It's shocking that the first time you enter the game, the animations are AAA quality.
After that? Everything goes back 20 years and it's Oblivion level work, but atleast Oblivion had some underlying substance.
I could have come up with a better story. All I really wanted was to fly my custom made space ship between dimensions and shoot Cthulhu in the face as he is about to eat the solar system. I don't see how they didn't think of this lol
The opening dialogue for the base game is a waste of time. The "Exit Tutorial Enter World" moment inspires feelings of absolute indifference. I could have bought AT LEAST 4 Tootsie Rolls from the gas station down the street with the dollar that I spent to try this game. I will consider the consequences of this awful decision for the remainder of my life.
Mass Effect:Andromeda be like "do you like me now?"
😝😂😝😂
When Kevin takes the time to make a serious review, you know something... THIS IS BAD!
what is bethesda even doing? are they just sitting around doing nothing half the time they are supposed to work? Are only inexperienced people working there? Do they ever play their own games and notice how bland they are in a lot of aspects? I don't understand man.
Didn't even know this was even a thing
Where are the other moddable open world sci-fi FPS RPGs with space flight and combat?
There are none outside of Star Citizen. Which isn't moddable.
Bethesda need competition, badly.
When did this come out? Played over 130 hours of starfield and this is honestly the first time ive heard of there being a dlc? BGS is 100% trying to bury this game
You made it entertaining to watch my brotha, good on you. Hail Sithis!
Obsidian should make Fallout Next Vegas and Skyrim 6
Skyrim 6?
you mean the company that made that stale ass man hating outer worlds? the company that lost most of its original devs that made their games actually good. they are not what they once were either. they are just like bethesda, filled with woke activist with a agenda not game developers.
Couldn't of said it better myself Kev.
Bethesda could remake Morrowind in the Starfield engine, and make a lot of money
they've already done most of Vvardenfell with ESO; heck if they did the old combat with jank and all it would attract old school fans.
Would it? Old School fans have Tamriel Reborn or however that huge mod is called. I doubt Bethesda's remake would have that.
Get Emil out, please I beg.
Yeah just play Shadow of the Erdtree, Blood and Wine, or Phantom Liberty instead
ES6 is doomed
Your honesty is appreciated
Starfield is a game full of could I ideas instead of should I ideas
It cant be worse than the Crimson Fleet questline right? Delgado was such a meat rider for that one founder dude it wasnt even funny
I mean the planet is pretty cool to explore, and the story quests have been alright, but yea if you already don't like Starfield then this DLC ain't gonna change your mind
Plus this shit should have been in the base game as a faction questline
Pretty obvious at this point they should have cooked this game for another 3-4 years
Look. I love your content. Your honest. You're funny. You got that charm. But i just can't forgive your love for the Turkey Bacon Club from Tim's.
Bethesda making uninspired, cheap slop? Nah, impossible.
