what dont' you like about Starfield? What would you improve? What do you want to see? What should we add in next DLC? What is the big weakness of the game?

>>719905278 (OP)
Did you see the teaser for the next DLC? I'm pretty hyped for that

Ah that's why saarfields are uppity today

>>719905278 (OP)
Damn, 2 years and I still have no desire to play beyond the 7 hours I dumped into this shit at launch. Fallout 4 was at least enjoyable.

Trannies keep seething about Starfield today, guess they're uppity because it keeps thriving and getting new contnet.

Congratulations to an actually beloved game. Unlike the chinese astorturf that botted fake success and had to cancel finishing the game when the tencent money ran dry.

Shooting my way off Captain kitenges ship. Not the rest of the pirate quest cause that sucked but killing your way out after getting arrested was fun except for the immortals.

dead game lol

>>719911467
No anon, it cannot be a dead game.
It never truly lived.

>>719905278 (OP)
It wasn't that bad until I got to the main city and met those tepid companions. It's a game without any humour, or anything else for that matter. Like warm water or like an opened stale beer. It's still beer but it's not that fun to drink it.
I still played it for about 70 hours or more. I cheated my way through those 10 copy pasted power collecting missions and what else.
Some 10 hours went into testing mods how to make the game look more user friendly and perform better.
Also pirated it.

Bethesda is currently pushing for a redemption arc, they have a new DLC planned for Starfield. They really want their No Man Sky moment, turning a shit game into a shit game that sells well.

>>719911896
A stale beer is a decent description. As an alcoholic, I'll still drink it, but it's the kind of drink you have to fight to keep down. A stale, warm beer on a hot day is what starfield is. Also, the writing tries so hard to be mature, but it's so edgeless that it says absolutely nothing to the player/reader. Hey Arnold had more edge, hell. SpongeBob has more edge.

Out of all the problems with Starfield this literally isn't one.

>>719913012
Would YOU want proof you're an incompetent retard laying around?

>>719911896
The four major companions all being boring nice people is so fucking gay. I remember as well when you do the quest with the terrormorph creatures, they all get pissy at you if you don't use the untested virus over the animals that can fuck them over.
Part of the fun of companions in games like this to me is the different reactions they can have to something you do, and maybe even talking to them about it where they might give their reasoning and it makes sense to you, or you tell them shut the fuck up. What's the point of having four of them if they all act like the same generic good person?

>>719905278 (OP)
A textbook lesson in why a strong setting, solid worldbuilding, and interesting plot/characters are so integral to an open world RPG game, where the focus isn’t on any one particular mechanic being especially solid like in other genres eg platformers or pure shooters.

Starfield failed not because of any one mechanic being poor. It didn’t fail because of the admittedly lame lack of ability to actually fly your ship around, or because the planets had instanced cells and couldn’t be seamlessly traveled across.

Starfield failed because it was boring. Nothing about its setting was interesting or inspired player investment. None of the characters felt real or had any sort of interesting conflict/dynamic. Nothing in the plot was particularly compelling or made you think about your actions. The aesthetic and tone was so inconsistent that there was no memorable cohesive atmosphere that made you think “Starfield”. Take a game like New Vegas; janky, buggy, with many individual mechanics that are more limited and outdated than Starfield. Yet it’s still beloved and talked about to this day and still has higher concurrent player counts because its world, characters, themes, atmosphere, quests are all extremely memorable and interesting and make you think even when you’re not playing the game. Starfield does not have this, and so it was rapidly forgotten.

>>719913513
Starfield outlived all these games. Proof that love and passion matters the most in making a game.

>>719905278 (OP)
I liked when I warped to some moon in the Sol system and a guy contacted me on the radio to ask if I knew where Uranus was and then started giggling and said it was right behind me. Other than that just taking hauling and bandit killing contracts from the vending machines in bars and living that space drifter life.

>>719913513

No it absolutely failed because of what you just said. Because every bit of that boils down to "Interrupt and stop the player from actually playing."

If Starfield had fun and interesting quests on each of its planets/stations, great writing, compelling companion characters, a coherent atmosphere, I guarantee you it would’ve been beloved even if that still would have been a legitimate critique. The problem is that all of the quests are boring and retarded along with all of the characters and the world. They could have built around so much of interstellar/planetary travel being locked behind loading screens by making it so that the vast majority of quests are mostly self contained within whatever worldspace they are given. When your typical quest is “fast travel to X location, grab this, then fast travel back here to Y” that’s a problem of quest design exacerbating your game’s limitations unnecessarily. Fast travel loading x1000 is a real problem that they could have mitigated, instead they made it so much worse than it even needed to be through the sheer retardation of how they designed the game

Might as well wait for the PS5/Switch 2 release because they're bundling up all the gameplay overhauls to fix major complaints of the game. They tried dripfeeding a lot of gameplay fixes but people hated that so now they're just putting it all together in one big patch for the upcoming DLC.

You can tell Starfield is a great game when there's no arguments about the game's quality, just nonstop namecalling you see in games of similar quality like in baldur's gate 3 or expedition 33 threads.

>>719915168
stop faleslfagging jeet

i am not the understanding why so many India hate actions are on this internet suddenly. very disturbing

Imagine being the one sad retard in this thread that likes this game, deluding himself into thinking this thread is discussion about it.

>>719913345
The solutions to that problem were so lame
Introducing their natural predator to a thousand planets they aren't native to is a legitimately horrifying answer to the problem. The history of invasive species even in modern times holds that you should never, ever introduce another problem to take care of one you have now
And no one buys the argument that the virus comes with a pretty significant risk that no one takes seriously but you
Then you learn about the grav drive and how the entire universe is based on "ends justify the means" logic

Reminder that indians seethe at starfield because they're one of the last white developers left and they cant get into bethesda and destroy it with their shit programming.

>>719915343
What's even sadder is the one tranny samefagging and spamming starfield hate when it's a beloved game.

go anti woke
go super broke

I see Starfield getting praised and liked once they drop a few patches addressing it's core issues. People really hated Cyberpunk and NMS and both of them turned their reputation around over the years and starfield is in a better state than both of them starting out so it wouldnt take much.

>>719905692
Larian studios biggest beef with the whole buldars gate situation is that pretty much everybody on the hasbro side of the deal got fired, and then the game became a succes, and the fuckers who fired the guys who hired larian to make the game claimed the honors.

>>719916373
The problem is that Cyberpunk had a good base as far as atmosphere/aesthetics/story and NMS had a good base as far as the tech and seamless nature of everything

Starfield has neither. There isn’t some diamond in the rough story and characters waiting to be finally seen after technical issues are resolved, and there isn’t a bunch of new sandbox mechanics they can strap on to a seamless space travel system. They’d have to redo the entire game and it simply wouldn’t be worth the time

>>719916373
Nope, the guys behind cyberpunk and NMS have been doing constant updates for years now to fix the shitshow they released.
Bethesda has pretty much given up on this game and is only honoring certain deals they made in the past to avoid lawsuits.

>>719916612
The biggest issue is just fixing the space travel and exploration which they acknowledged multiple times and have names of the new systems leaked in the creation kit. I'd wait and see what happens in the near future.

Nah the next dogshit DLC with an hour and a half of content will save it. That'll be $35 please.

>>719916674
They literally just teased a new DLC today and already said they're planning to release more next year.

>>719905278 (OP)
2 more years stolen from TES IIIIII

>>719905278 (OP)
Honestly wasn’t expecting much with all the hype, but Starfield’s been scratching that itch for me. The ship building is way more fun than I thought, and I actually lost like 3 hours just messing around in the cockpit and hopping between planets. Feels like classic Bethesda jank in spots, but that’s kinda the charm. If you’re into exploration and tinkering, it’s worth giving a shot.

>>719916728
At best, they will introduce a way to seamlessly fly between planets, optimistically even solar systems. But that doesn’t change the fact that

>you can’t seamlessly land on planets or fly in the atmosphere and realistically will never be able to given the nature of creation engine (which is the true appeal and what everyone actually cares about being able to do)
>even if they do introduce flying between planets they also need to completely overhaul how encounters work in space, completely overhaul general space flight mechanics, how objects and enemies spawn in, etc to make it interesting
>fixing exploration would require them to completely redo the random POI system, disable repeating zones, make some way to procedurally generate new POIs rather than just reuse the same ones
>none of this will fix the awful writing and quest design that’s already built in

>>719916759
that's one of said deals

The DLC sucked ass though
I get it that players were complaining about the lack of handcrafted places but my favorite part of the game was hopping from planet to planet clearing out random facilities

Name one (1) memorable character. One. Adoring Fan doesn’t count.

>>719916373
Cyberpunk had a more interesting setting overall and even though they took their time with updates, it was still quicker and more substantial ones then what Bethesda are doing.

>>719917849
They came out within about a month of each other I guess. I remember a friend of mine playing Baldurs Gate 3, switching to Starfield and playing it for about a month and then never finishing it as he went back to Baldurs Gate.

>>719917417
>The season pass they sold was for two
Not true. It was just for one DLC (specifically Shattered Space). You're referring to the Digital Premium Edition that was $100 which included the Shattered Space DLC (whenever it was ready), 1000 credits for Creations (whenever Creations was up and ready), Digital artbook, the OST, and Skin Packs along with the base game.

>>719917670

>>719917776
How about the fact that it's shit from top to bottom? The loading screens kill any immersion you can try to attain between the world lore and gameplay clashing constantly. The combat is the most simplistic shit ever. The powers you get are absolute dogwater outside of 3 of them with minimal utility. The ship buildings ok but you're too constrained by random bullshit, much like the rest of the game. The diabloot weapons are right between "Why's this even in the game?" and "Annoyingly game changing/breaking.", making it unsatisfying as fuck period. The main quest is the dumbest scooby doo mysteries bullshit ever.

>>719918074
Did Barry really go from Final Fantasy XV to loving Starfield? Or is another of his lesser imitators?

This thread's a dumpster fire, so all I'll say about Starfield is that's a Bethesda game without the massive, interesting open world to explore. Which is to say that Starfield is a pretty bad game.

Just saying you guys.

Lmao, fuck me I guess. That's dogshit though only doing that for shattered space especially when it fucking sucked, taking the one most interesting faction in Starfield and making them boring as fuck.

>>719917581
The worst is the ending where he insists (and you can’t talk him out of it) that he and his daughter go through the unity, even if you know that they’ll be separated and she’ll be stranded alone in a random universe.

skyrim and fallout 4 are shit too.

>>719918143
I feel like Barry at this point is a catch all term for every schizo on this site just from him shilling FF15 and Forspoken

>>719918204
I honestly don’t get the hate Starfield gets. Yeah, it’s not perfect, but I’ve been losing hours just wandering around, checking out random planets, piecing together side quests, and getting lost in the atmosphere. The soundtrack hits at the right moments, the ship building is actually addicting, and some of the little environmental storytelling bits are pure Bethesda magic. It feels like one of those games people will come back to in a few years and go “damn, this was way better than I gave it credit for.” Not saying it’s flawless, but if you go in without expecting it to be Skyrim in space, it’s genuinely an underrated masterpiece.

>>719905278 (OP)
I still don't think Starfield was all bad. There are some parts in there that could have been good, if they weren't bogged down by the insane over-scope and sheer incompatibility of the engine and design goals. You can tell they were making something as wide as an ocean and shallow as a puddle in the hopes it would do well enough to get like a decade of DLCs and support to fill in all the shit that should have been there in the first place, while leaving it open enough to not pigeon hole them into any story lines or particular rules too early. Nothing is actually fully realized, except maybe the Crimson Fleet questline.
It all feels like the first two months of an MMO, where they're only laying seeds to try to get you invested so they can double down on what people cared about while leaving the rest as loose ends.

It doesn't feel like a world people are actually living in. The main story isn't half as interesting as even the worst side story in the game, you're actively discouraged from an evil playthrough. There are no roleplaying options, and your character can't actually specialize in anything.

>>719918289
It feels wrong to call these imitators Barry. They feel far lower effort than Barry

>>719918512
That was the plan, but it got shitter-shattered when the middleware vendors told BGS to pound sand in relation to sublicensing their software for modders.

The whole thing was an incomparable disaster and I have no clue how no one involved realized how much of a disaster it really was.

Jesus Sci-Fi Christ. This game is ludo.

>>719917772
sad part is, the questline itself really is very good. it has nice intrigue and the moral choice of aceles vs microbe is set up very well. then the companions woosh in and say "THIS WAS THE GOOD CHOICE AND YOU DIDNT TAKE IT, HOW DARE YOU" and the good choice is bioengineered and untested viruses vs reintroducing animals into their native habitat (well mostly, i think some planets didn't have them originally and it could be a new invasive problem? but even then, they could get farmed and eaten again, we do that with invasive species irl).

the writers were not onboard with each others' storylines. i'd almost say whoever wrote the companions' responses was actively spiteful of the terrormorph questline, because otherwise that's a level of incompetence and illiteracy i've not seen since i worked at a middle school.

Fucking sucks having such basic gameplay features locked behind skill point investment.
Imagine if Elder Scrolls 6 is as stingy with skill points because they expect people to put in 100 hour playthroughs.
You’d be 20 hours into the story about to face the final boss and you’re still unlocking shit like pickpocketing, crouching, sprinting proficiency 1.
There would be zero build variety because the first 30 skill points are for unlocking shit the dragonborn had level 1.

Qrd? Is that why the creation kit was like a year late? Amazing, was the absolute kill shot on it.

Stop shilling this slop Barry. It’s embarassing.

>>what's your favorite quest?
Getting a refund from steam even though I played for like 10 hours
>>what's your favorite companion?
I never used one since they were all annoying. The dumb bitch kept whining that I killed pirates who attacked me. I think that was a bug, but goddamn what a cunt.
>>wha'ts your favorite planet?
Earth
>>what's your favorite questline?
No
>>how has your life changed thanks to Starfield?
Never before have I disliked a game so much it offended me on a personal level. I am still mad about it to this day. What a boring uninspired dogshit game.
>Keep on exploring Bethesda's field of stars!
I doubt I will ever play a bethesda game again. I most certainly will not be purchasing any.

I despise when games lock shit behind arbitrary requirements.
>Oh, you want that super good grav drive for your shit? Sorry boss, you have the capacity and the money to buy it, but you need a level 3 perk to buy this bad boy

One of the weirdest things is your crew actively wander the ship while you fly it and interact with the things you've installed. They have that there and did nothing with it. Could have done FTL/Warframe/etc. style ship managment where your crew do go and put out fires or seal hull breaches during combat instead of you just pressing the ship repair button.

Just add the option to board my spaceship, take off, travel to a planet and land on it without loading screens and the game is fixed

IDV (Speedtree) and Autodesk (the middleware that handles randomly populating planets with locations), and, I may be wrong about this, the vendor for the FaceFX middleware for animating character faces, weren't willing to let Microsoft sublicense their software for free in the Creation Kit.
So Bethesda had to hack together a fucked up version of the Creation Kit that had none of the actual heavy hitter features of Starfield available to modders, and you couldn't just plop shit down on one of the 1000 planets that already existed.

That's an engine level limitation. You either get a million pieces of pointless litter lying around, or you get seamless worlds.

hold on, what if we're in a Monkey's Paw scenario? Someone wished for a better Black Flag game, and since Ubisoft made a embezzle Singapore government money game instead the proverbial torch has been passed? It'll be an absolutely shit Elder Scrolls game but an excellent seafarer/sailng game?
