You might be surprised, but I played it (of course I didn't buy it).
I spent all of 20 hours in the game before I gave up.
As a rule, I don't shit on games I haven't played, although I sometimes make an exception for Blizzard and Ubishit.

Only thing I was really wondering was if you can ship to ship combat and board. This short vid answers that:

"finding hidden shit" during interplanetary/interstellar travel doesn't really make any sense, once you take into account how big space is.

IKR, if they made a TV show about traveling between stars and having adventures along the way (call it Star Trip or something), that'd be the most boring thing ever.

Just because you have the imagination of an eponymous root vegetable, it doesn't mean capable minds can't make space exploration interesting.

Is that where you try to justify submarine physics, 150m/s main engine speed, spaceship explosions having sound effects (undelayed even), and anything immersive having been replaced with cutscenes and loading screens?

TV shows cut out the boring shit of waiting around while nothing is happening.

Kind of like I wish I could cut out your posts.

Great, looking forward to seeing what your "capable mind" produces

Welcome to video games, since you don't seem to like them I'm sure you'll fit right in here

some lulz:

this was already posted in the “other” Starfield thread, why do we have 2 threads again?

 

[jackofshadows]

Ask the biggeest fanboy around here about that. Why does he not having Bethestard tag still, by the way?

 

[Bulo]

The Bethestard tag should be renamed to Adoring Fan

 

[Prehistorik]

How close is chat GPT to Starfield writing?

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

How about TODDY BEAR TAG? Hmmmm..

 

[ArchAngel]

So I finished Ranger quest line again in my NG+ but this time I did more random quests from the Ranger Mission Board. Right after that one of the Rangers at their HQ told me real missions are gained from Rangers themselves and gave me one.
Mission was just like ones from Mission Board (go kill bandit X on planet Y) except this target had a name and Todd gave some extra peanuts to the voice actor for that dialogue.
Then I get back and Ranger says now go do some more Missions Board quests so we can give you one more "non Mission Board" quest... this game.. I finished my Defiant, I think I am switching to Everspace 2 instead..

 

[Vic]

are you still playing this?

 

[ArchAngel]

are you still playing this?

I did yesterday, I wanted to finish The Defiant before quitting. I used Star Eagle to build the Defiant.

 

[Vic]

I don’t know what that means

 

[potatojohn]

New bug in patch?

I can switch to third person while sitting in the pilot seat

If I take off like this then first person is not available. The perspective switches between ship third person and pilot seat third person

Not a big deal, just amusing

What are you saying? That it *would* be possible to make an interesting space exploration game, you just don't want to spend a long time between encounters? I thought you had a different issue, but if that's the only snag, maybe look up the concept of pacing. It will blow your mind.

IDK, seems to me there are plenty of idiots around seal-clapping for goyslop like Starfield.

It's OK to love good games. It's counterproductive to tolerate bad ones.

The Bethestard tag should be renamed to Adoring Fan

Even that was Bethesda's blatant copy of BG2's Noober.

Adoring Fan was funny for a while and I even tried to use him as companion and not just crew because he can carry a lot of stuff but overall it is better to take parents trait so you can get a free ship from it.
Also Adoring Fan talking animations are almost same (or are same) like many other other male characters. It becomes irritating fast.

LMAO at least this dogshit game inspires funny videos like this:

The adoring fan is from Oblivion. Also I took both adoring fan and parents traits, so that's certainly possible.

From the moment the game starts with the main theme, “Into the Starfield,” to the closing notes of "A Home in the Galaxy," Starfield’s score embodies the notion of exploration, mystery and the wonder of space.

 

[Vic]

there are only 2 tracks which I consider good, and one of them is the title screen music, rest is pretty meh

that's the other one, and it's very cinematic and spacey, plays on snow planets
