Starfield Thread - Shattered Space expansion coming September 30th

[ArchAngel]

Baldur's gate 3 is selling more than Oblivion in space on Steam, also is being more played after one month of its launch

Spoiler

That was to be expected when BG3 is not on gamepass or on console.

Immagine getting so upset about this you cannot play a game how sad!

cannot play ? he just boots up the game at the end of his rant ! That's actually the funniest part.

 

[ArchAngel]

if you look at his shelf he has sci-fi stuff there so I'm sure he was excited for a good sci-fi game but instead he found himself in New Apelantis doing boring fetch quests for gender fluid negros

I got to cowboy town and except for that bank robbery thing the rest was mostly fetch quests as well.

I know! Speaks a lot about him XD

 

[ArchAngel]

and helps keep a degenerate and decrepit company at the top, just like the rest of the industry?

I swear I was looking to Starfield to save us from woke shit that is BG3 but it turned out even worse and it massively backfired for them I just don't understand what they are thinking

are there more people who buy that shit than those who complain about it? I can imagine that maybe in america but not in other parrts of the world

It is pretty bad. So far all important people are women or black people. I ran into 4 white men of any import. One was Marshal in cowboy city whose ass you save at first opportunity, then town mayor who does nothing of import and two guys in Constellation. Younger one seem to be autistic and older one is some stuck up british dude. Both are unimportant.
Game is hilarious..

 

[Mebrilia the Viera Queen]

People people! Have you checked the Steam forums? Is worse than the codex there now XD

Nah i am bisexual

Bisexual women don't make any sense at all.

They are 2xsloths. 2x bigger chance they end up as cat women as no man of value will stay with them.

Or the man in question could end to have 2 gf's if lucky then who will be laughting?

 

[ArchAngel]

Imagine playing this on Normal jfc I can only imagine how face roll the combat is

I suck at shooters so for me it's good

tho I did beat FO4 on survival where even at high levels you could still die in one hit, not looking for this kind of experience for my first playthrough tho

I am also playing on Normal because I am playing with a controller. It is pretty faceroll still, I might raise difficulty.
But I am playing it as a aRPG so it is about looting and leveling, not about hard combat.

Why is the company called Bethesda?

The name is derived from the Biblical "Pool of Bethesda," which in Hebrew means "House of Kindness."

Sarah Morgan (jewish name) is a fictitious character that represents the internazionale juden elite that wants to show the world the path to enlightenment.

Sarah Morgan is nice!
She is my companion of choice.

She is a space Karen. Terrible

No she isn't O_o

Each time I steal something she complains, I tell somebody to fuck off she complains. And those eyes and face always judging you. I plan to get rid of her as soon as possible. Even a soulless robot like Vasco was better. He carried stuff, shot at enemies and warned me when enemies were around or gave up. Why do I need more?
Where do I get that Andjelica chick, she seems more interesting for a waifu?

The cat as it will have one human to share with other cats but no other humans

I think some of issues with the handcrafted NPCs is that to make the facial animations look more realistic they've really emphasized nasolabial folds and forehead wrinkles on some of the characters that otherwise have attractive underlying models. It's not 'bad' per se but it ages the characters a lot, which is fine for someone like Sarah Morgan (she looks to me like a well preserved woman in her late 30s, which is an appropriate age given her role) but it's weird when it's on an otherwise young face.

For context: The rant happened after a ~6h play session. After meeting the tranny clone. Quite funny.


People that just watched the clipped rant got the impression it happened during character creation.

Man, Bethesda is actually really winning me over with this pronoun shit. The amount of seething is absolutely beautiful. Bravo, Toddster, bravo!

I think this is a question I have been asking myself throughout the entire playthrough: is she a young hot chick or is she a MILF?

I definitely think MILF, it makes sense with her backstory, but the weirdness of the facial animations means it could go either way. She's like the old crone/ young beauty optical illusion but MILFier

 

[Konjad]

Starfield Steam forums sure are lit, people angry there are pronouns, women and black people, and other people who are happy the former get banned, then starting excusing paedophilia. It's a roller coaster of disgust.

So the honeymoon is over already? I had 20 hours of dumb entertainment with Starfield, which is twice the amount I had with Fallout 4. Considering I didn't pay anything for it, I'm satisfied.

Now, on to watching the fireworks as the normies find out the game contains lots of gays, Blacks, women bosses, but not much C&C, or balanced mechanics, or meaningful build variety.

Todd's secret to success is that like an O. Henry snake oil salesman, he travels around, shows up in some village where the locals don't know him, cheats them out of their money, then he submerses for a decade, and when he comes back, the new generation of normies don't know who he is.

Good for you. I found Starfield to be a great game in the end. I mean I didn't play much and most likely won't, but the excitement, anger, depression, hope given and taken away, and otherwise many more emotions I experienced when reading Steam Starfield forum were certainly worth it.

Even though the crew you can hire is procedurally generated, none of them are as ugly as the pedestrians. So when I tried to use the torch on them and the pedestrians. What i found out is the pedestrians textures seems to don't have specular maps and the faces have really no much variation at this point i wonder if unlike the player and the other npcs the pedestrians are an entity of their own probably lower poly and low res textures in order to save memory usage.

 

[Mebrilia the Viera Queen]

Here an example there is a pedestrian and a specialist you can recruit. Now crew usually is randomly generated.
Notice the difference.
Pedestrian:

Randomly generated recruitable crew member:

Notice anything? Both at the torch aimed but the pedestrian lacks: Specular mapping and probably has a low resolution texture and bump mapping as well (And lower polygons).
While the specialist look nice.
Another example:

Here is the Specialist sat next to another npcs here is even more evident.

To me this pedestrians are just separated entity put there to create crowds and consume less memory possible on your rig.

Is exactly like Cyberpunk when they use 2d cars to give the illusion of distant traffic.

Isn't that a thing since, well idk, at least GTA 3, probably much longer?

Yeah but in starfield is way more evident because the differences between real npcs and those citizens
This also explain why they do those weird faces normal npc (story ones or even simple guards or even pirates) Don't do.

Is anyone else playing a melee build and if so how are they finding it? I read articles and complaints on various forums about it being underpowered but decided to give it a shot anyway, and with the Va'ruun painblade you can find with one of the merchants at the Key I'm pretty much deleting enemies instantly, I bumped up from Hard to Very Hard to test as well and I'm still able to easily take on groups of enemies 5-10 levels higher (and it's definitely not that I'm particularly skilled, part of the reason I prefer melee is that my aim is pants). Even before I got the painblade the UC cutlass was perfectly serviceable and I was only dying when I got myself in a bad position and got overwhelmed.

I understand that not being able to mod the weapons and having to face tank hits is a negative but I was thinking it would be far worse from the reactions. Should I expect a big drop off later (I'm level 15 now) or is 'melee bad' just one of those memes that took off without most of the people saying it testing it?

There's a denegrification mod already, leaves whites and asians.

For the liberal faggots, trannies and women (maybe?) still waiting on you to answer the question about why blacks are so prominent in leadership positions in this game when currently they're at the bottom of every intelligence, education, economic metric?

Megs will be in here saying dumb woman (or tranny) shit about how "triggered" bros get but she will never answer my questions and stick with low IQ drive by comments
