there are 100x less trannies in Starfield than in BG3

Starfield is as woke as previous Bethesda games with the exception of asking for pronouns in character creation, but nowadays you have to have that. But it should be easy to remove that with a mod.

My best gun so far is a 140 damage Advanced Razorback that I looted off the first tutorial planet.

and how many hours are you in?

And do you kill enemies or do exploration, resource gathering etc.?

Because there is a shit ton of loot that the game throws at you, if you clear out a base or two you’ll get at least an epic weapon and other shit.

Umm, what's the point of levels in this game? I am level 16 and can easily kill level 65 aliens that give me like 75-100+ xp per kill

Starfield-9-4-2023-9-02-45-PM.png



edit: even killed a level 85 just now, tho he had a bit more hp.
Itemization is also kind of weird. Had a pistol which does 12 damage per shot and trying to kill anything with it was a hassle, took 3+ full magazines to kill an enemy of my level.
The next pistol I found (common rarity) does... 250 damage per shot and one-shots most enemies of my level and below.
Feels nice though.
Pack Cagebrain. I see the developers named an enemy after themselves.

It's one more game where rarity coloring makes no sense. At lvl 7 I have two legendary weapons, one epic pistol, but I'm mostly using a laser rifle at mid range because it does the best damage.

The rebelance mod that makes everything go down faster will likely improve the combat experience a lot, as enemies are just too spongy at this time.

The weapon that "feels" best for me is a modded Maelstrom rifle, but I never have enough ammo for it because I only gather ammo from looting, and it needs too much to kill a single bad guy.

One of my legendaries is an axe that has a chance to send enemies into frenzy on hit. It feels especially bloodthirsty finishing off crawling enemies with it.

What makes it even more bizarre and jarring is the totally abandoned Earth that no one even talks about. Oh yeah sure, our homeworld is completely fucked yet we still survive in colonies and never go there, try to rebuild anything or even talk about it, nothing to see here move along sir.
It's got no magnetosphere bro, it's like a chicken nugget left in a constantly-running nuclear-powered microwave for hundreds of years.
What exactly do you want them to do? Most space hicks don't even believe it existed.

They really don't? That's actually a cool worldbuilding idea right there.

yeah, you can ask Sarah about it when you
get the early mission to go to the space station in Earth’s orbit

The rarity color is how many bonus mods the weapon has. A modified prefix means the weapon has weapon bench mods. Then there are tiered prefixes (calibrated? and Advanced) which are essentially better versions of the original. A normal Razorback damage is 50 I think whereas the advanced version is 140.

Thanks, but I'll take a game with good gameplay and a few trannies over a game with garbage gameplay.

A tip for all who wanna play Starfield:

Play at least until the mission “Into the Unknown” then come back and post here fucktards
Of the three missions Sarah offers after her intro mission, I only concluded saving Barrett - which she suggests you should do first.
