Starfield - Epic Shit Takes from Bethestards

[Silverfish]

Whereas they're all bisexuals in Bethesda games wherever applicable.

Butch wasn't gay, he just had a knack for being a barber.

is it worth doing all the random activities and shit or should I just finish the main quest and uninstall? i've done every faction and upgrading my ship further seems pointless. level 65ish

It's been a while since I played but if you haven't done NG+, you don't have your Starborn ship yet? Every time you finish another NG+ your ship and Starborn suit get upgraded to a maximum of +10 iirc, which is the best armor in the game.

Multiple NG+ are also necessary to collect all the space shouts.

Level 65 is not really that high, but I assume you can already kill level 100 enemies easliy? They appear on the furthest solar systems. I've found the best way to level up is to kill level 100 aliens. Find a spot with a high density of them (usually a coastal tile) and go hunting.

To kill level 100 legendary enemies you'll need a good weapon. I don't remember what the affixes were exactly but there is a "best" weapon for each type. I think it were the Va'ruun weapons. Also armor. You could grind some high level dungeons to farm for better gear. Every dungeon has a boss and a chest, always at the same location.

If you're not playing on the hardest difficulty, I would suggest to do so because you will get more legendary drops.

Basically, if you enjoy grinding you still have much to do, but that's not everyone's cup of tea. Otherwise, if you've done all the quests, I don't think the random activities (I assume you mean the "radiant" bounty hunter quests and shit?) aren't really worth it. But they can add a little variety while hunting for loot/xp. Keep in mind that you will lose your ship and all of your items on NG+, only the Starborn suit and ship will persist and get upgraded. So getting invested on the first "run" isn't advisable if you want to go for a more complete playthrough.

i just got a sick roll from the trackers alliance from turning in 3 astras and the armor had the exact same model as the armor I was wearing. -_-

vladimir being black while still speaking with a Russian accent is legitimately so distracting, it completely ruins all the otherwise great starborn-centric main quests. if you compare the story reactivity to mass effect, starfield really does make ME look like a farce. shame most people won't get far enough to appreciate it

Are you playing on console or why are you not considering modding your game?

I did mod him to be white, patches broke the mod, which I assume was on purpose

If by "random activities" you mean miscellaneous quests, there's a (relatively) excellent quest called Entangled on Freya III, and some Codexers speak highly of another quest that starts on Charybdis III (which I missed).

Bold of you to assume that I would buy this steaming turd. In other news, Bethesda unionized, so expect it to get even worse.

It's funny watching Redditors and other assorted animals cheering on the unionization. Their reactions are going to be really funny when TESVI comes out 6 years from now with less content than Skyrim.

 

[Ayreos]

Honestly if the unionization created a Tes6 where Hammerfell goes full communist and we get Khajiit getting burned alive for usury it could be amazing and a return to form. Great games are made when they represent a metaphor for the hopes and dreams of their creators. That's why the only memorable things out of BG3 are bear fucking and homosexual rape (of the player.)

They should have doubled down and made it a psychotic porno crossed with clockwork orange levels of hyperviolence, then made everything that would lead to an M rating tongue-in-cheek. Bam, missed masterpiece

So you want a game that blends Urotsukidoji with A Clockwork Orange? You know what, someone would be crazy enough to make that and then advertise it here.

Wasn't Entangled part of the main quest?

Land vehicles are coming in the next free update. But they won't have fuel requirements so another popamole feature.

Where are the mechs? The big stompy variety.

Where are the mechs? The big stompy variety.

Mechs are outlawed because they are weapons of mass destruction.

This is a good opportunity to introduce a radio station btw. Doubt they're going to license a bunch of songs for this tough.

All weapons destroy mass. Or at least deform it.

 

[Saint_Proverbius]

The main guy behind Far Harbour left Bethesda after Starfield released.

Isn't Far Harbor's story the one they ripped off from a mod developer?

It's funny watching Redditors and other assorted animals cheering on the unionization. Their reactions are going to be really funny when TESVI comes out 6 years from now with less content than Skyrim.

It'll take longer, have less content, and that content will most likely be really half assed - more than Bethesda typically does. There'll be more bugs, the patches will be more infrequent, and so on.

 

[Stavrophore]

Is there a mod like Grounded Commonwealth for Fallout 4 but for Starfield? Basically make it more grounded with less ugly mystery meat characters and forced diversity/cringe butch ladies?

 

[Butter]

Isn't Far Harbor's story the one they ripped off from a mod developer?

There's a side quest in Far Harbor called Brain Dead, which is very similar to a New Vegas mod called Autumn Leaves. The main quest is a less retarded take on the base game's main quest.

 

[ind33d]

The skill tree combined with the research system is really so cool. Illegally overclocking your Varuun pistol? You can even rename your weapons, which is nice. Game just needs some competent codex entries and flavor text. Hopefully at some point the design docs leak for the original galaxy map and lore so modders can finish it.
