A lot of people say that if they had a time machine, they'd go back to kill Hitler (though I suppose that's probably not relatable to quite a few posters on this site... Hillary Clinton maybe?) - but I'd like to go back and surgically remove Markus "Notch" Persson's fingers so he could never infect the world of video games with the wretched curse of SURVIVAL CRAFTING
a tragic tale of Notch, he is now a rich lonely guy who lost all meaning in life. there is a documentary on youtube I think. money can't buy happiness
Good!! It's his fault every other game has crafting when we should be using money to pay npc schlubs to do the menial labor like in real life

There are cosmetic gene clinics where people can change their appearance/sex/race
so THAT'S how everyone ended laquan and shaneekwa. people decided it's better to live as powerful welfare kangz and kweens than to slave in mine as a fucking white male in current year.

Are npc models randomly generated in this game?
The background NPCs are. Also the random encounters that you find while exploring the procedurally generated worlds are most likely randomly generated too, tho they are voiced.

Wait a fucking minute.

I thought it was 100mil not 400mil?

This is like 5x the failure of ME: Andromeda.
Where did all the money go?

This is the first question that should have arisen at Microsoft when testing it.

Replace that with a pile of cheeseburgers maybe.

I've been mining rocks for 20 hours.
see? you probably the only retard left in starfield universe and now must feed chicago alone. so endgame goal suddenly sounds plausible - you want to escape from slavery to another universe.
and people say there is no setting.

So far the impressions are really... fucking meh doesn't even begin to describe it. I know I've barely seen anything, so maybe I'll give it an honest attempt,
but so far Bethesda managed the unthinkable - to make me consider going back to Elite or ... perish the thought ... Scam Citizen.

If you want a space sim, you aren't going to like Starfield. It isn't what you are looking for, at all.

you become self-sufficient if you build outposts because you can breed animals and raise crops that you collect from other planets and setup production chains for food etc. You can assign crew to work at outposts and build robots that help production. It's pretty cool.

Come laugh at the ending message with me, actual spoilers, if you care about this shit of a games plot. Great advice up there - just go play Space Rangers.

That would be cool if new universe had different quests from same characters and those characters are put in different positions and you can find companions you could not in original universe.

Frankly this is an utter disgrace, nothing in it shows next-generation game, not even the textures, not even the facial animations, nothing.

Maybe if an indie game developers made something like that, most people would have accepted with a grain of salt, but even the indie game developers would have made a better job.

Here, there is nothing great, nor good, everything is unexploited, everything is left to its empty shell of an idea that could have been great.

And what's worse, nothing in the game reeks 400M$ of development let alone 7 years of development, everything is under-cooked, there is no polishing, no attention to detail, no exciting new gameplay element.
What are you talking about? It runs 30 FPS on next generation GPUs that cost 2000+ $ ! That is as next generation as it comes!
:prosper:
