Starfield Thread - now with Shattered Space horror expansion

[ADL]

It's second only to the original Mass Effect.

Not exactly high praise is it?

Anyways I'm itching to give this another go with the Starvival mod paired with Deadly Hazards but I'm probably gonna wait for a Creation Kit release so I don't fuck up my save file with weird hacky mods. Posting these because I think it's interesting what they've managed to do without a SDK release.


Not really a fan of survival mechanics because generally it just creates tedium but what's the point of "NASApunk" with such surface-level mechanics? Don't even bother with the setting if you're not gonna go all in on making the early space exploration era feel dangerous and intimidating. This isn't Star Wars or Dune, it's set a couple hundred years after the first moon landing and the collapse of Earth. I realize it's foolish to think nuBethesda would ever do such a thing but they did hire the Frostfall/Campfire guy and they've said survival options are coming in their 2024 roadmap... These things aren't gonna save the game but at least it'd make it more engaging.

Mods can not fix Bethesda games.

Is there a comparable sci-fi game made in a less homosexual country like China? I'm curious how much of Starfield being fucked up is due to Angloid successor ideology. How hard could it possibly be to make Skyrim in space? People modded the Pillar of Autumn into Morrowind, for fuck's sake

There's Precursors, made by Russians.

mods are bethesda games, there are bugs in fallout 3 from morrowind

And even modded any game past Morrowind is unsalvageable. Don't delude yourselves.

Skyrim is a very functional waifu-modding sandbox for coomers.

Buggy mess. Worse than anything Owlcat ever made. Never got that to run properly, even with all those inofficial fixes.

INSOMNIA: The Ark maybe? But that's more like Colony Ship I guess. But was fun but bugged.​

More like unfinished and abondoned...
I really liked that game, it even had mechanical Morte in it!

Yeah, we know why Todd, don't have to explain it.

[Yosharian]

Beth have become such whores for mainstream they won't even put good AI in the game because difficult enemies aren't 'fun'.

Fuck you Todd your game is boring as fuck.

Todd knows his target demographic. I see nothing wrong with that. By retards, for retards, with retards.

 

[Beastro]

but I was hoping that by now the hype died down and the clowns are gone but I guess not.

Yeah, I mean, you're still here.

I will defend Starfield to the bitter end

And you bitched so much about your tag.

It's more than well earned, B'tard.

[ind33d]

please just end this, god. we don't deserve mercy

 

[I eat frozen vegetables]

But did they know how to do their jobs?

 

[Saark]

No, but in their defense, neither did the old Bethesda that was just a white sausage fest.

Hey look, if there is any one thing that was dreadfully apparent about Starfield and its development, it was the diversity of the dev team.

 

[Lambach]

Someone tell him to look up current birth rates among various demographics globally, because 2330 ain't gonna be diverse in the slightest. Just wall-to-wall muddy brown, probably with slightly slanted eyes too.

 

[Silverfish]

That's what diversity means, though.

Diversity = No whites

 

[Lambach]

In fairness to the guy, he did include "white" in his rainbow coalition description, so he does seem to be using that word in its original meaning.

 

[DemonKing]

Let's hope the list of those shitcanned for this flop is equally diverse.

It'll be diverse in the sense of being completely white.*

I don't have twitter/X. Was there any particular reason for him posting that? How were the replies?
