Starfield Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

Doesn't matter where you go, there will always be some "abandoned outpost" or whatever that isn't actually abandoned. Sure makes it feel like an unexplored galaxy out there.

Just like NMS then, such a shame. Not that I had any expectations but still a disappoinment.

My god, everything about this is so low effort. The UI, the graphics, the shooting, the voice acting, everything.

The "HUEG GALAXY TO EXPLORE" reminds me a lot of Mass Effect 2. Except instead of Geths everywhere you have one of 5 identical-looking spacesuit wearing NPCs.

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.

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

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.

This game breaks with a tradition from Bethesda.... Creating hand crafted open worlds that are good for hiking adventures. The only thing they ever did quite good. Their rpg elements were shit in any of their games. What remains? A pile of boring shit.
Abandoned the game after 5 hours, fell asleep one time to often.

I revised my statement. Wildlife is not supposed to be a challenge. They’re just like cattle.

And yes loot is randomized like in all looter shooters.

Just reached the alleged transgender character. It doesn't seem to be an allegory for transgender stuff at all:

She's part of a program intended to make supersoldiers using the genes of this one guy, mixed with new genetic material. There were lots of other "clones" in the program too (male and female), all made by combining new genetic material with the DNA of the original dude. The story hook is that the man who's genetics were used as the base for her and the other "clone" soldiers was a war criminal, and she feels uncomfortable that she was designed to share some of his mental traits. Player can say:

Regarding "le Tranny":
1. Is it a tranny if it was born a woman, XX chromosomes?
2. If you answered the previous question affirmatively, does you having sex with a woman (XX chromosomes) constitute having sex with a tranny, because one of the X chromosomes came from a man?
3.What sense does it make to genetically engineer female soldiers, given that they have lower pain treshold, lower physical strength, etc., qualities that make them less fit for active combat?

Am I reading too much into it?

 

[Vic]

is there a real tranny in the game? Starfield so far seems based as fuck

It just works okay? Stop asking questions.

The real tranny is the player.

 

[Vic]

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.

The suits aren't the problem, it's the retarded AI.

Every NPC is supposed to make its own decisions etc but they all line up just standing there.

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.

 

[Reinhardt]

so on scale from "codex goty" to "gud gaem" how gud it is?

 

[FugueLah]

Dunno, I am level 18.

 

[Vic]

It’s a game that doesn’t force me to say Tranny Ville 3 is 2023 goty

thanks todd

 

[Vic]

Dunno, I am level 18.

Should’ve had plenty of loot then, just lucky I guess with early drops

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.
