Somehow the game keeps getting worse the more I play. Around 20 hours in, the exploration is really boring and all PoIs are so far away from each other. More time running just to find nothing good. The whole planet experience is just terrible if you don't want to scan and collect useless items. The creatures are 0 threat so far. It's just big empty land to run till you reach a point of interest and half of them are just there to get some XP.
Continue with quests but they don't get better either. Boring fetch quests, the writing is bad, the characters are soulless, and the world is dead. Even if there are some NPCs around they all have 0 interaction.
Combat is okay. Nothing new nor super boring. The skills however are all basic stuff from 10 years ago. Nothing makes me want to grind to the next level.
The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

One other huge issue with the game is as I mentioned before, the PG nature. This is one of the main reasons I can't wait for Cyberpunk. I want gritty cops, corruption, adults who talk to you like adults, profanity, gore, adult themes etc. The writing is so bland in Starfield, yet it's rated R18+ in my country.

This game... is Bethesda's version of 'Animal Crossing':
• is very easy to play
• has no difficulty levels
• doesn't let you lose
• offers no real threat
• offers you almost everything on a plate, without effort
• gives you enemies that pose no challenge
• doesn't want to hurt your feelings
• gives you NPCs that talk softly, kind, easy with you
• treats you like you're some kinda of fragile flower
• treats you like you already deserve everything
• treats you like you just proved yourself to be a person of high skill and value (except you just started the game)
It is the perfect ESCAPISM game for some grownups. |

what you guys don't enjoy "You are super special hero guy, no you can't kill this NPC, or this NPC, or most NPC's" writing? What are you? Adults who don't wanna be treated with kid gloves?
If this wins goty over BG3; and honestly It probably will given how corrupt shilljourno bullshit is, It would be a sad picture.

I have a feeling it will land on Positive eventually. I don't think this is a game where the score will increase.

No, it's the other way around, they get out of their way to seek it.

Wow, this is your defense to journalists overlooking the glaring flaws of a game to raise it to an undeserved level of fame for various reasons (including most likely social politics)? It's not even the first time this happened and it won't be the last.

Are you not aware that BG3 is also the kind of story where you are constantly reminded what a "special hero" you are?
Anyway, despite its many many shortcomings, Starfield does manage to nail a few things every now and then.
The questline with the pirates is pretty damn good.
There are a few noteworthy moments in the story. I found the twist to be great, The way they handled one of the major choices was rather sloppy, but the aftermath was well crafted.
The graphics indoors are on a whole other level compared to the outdoors.
The variety of weapons is nice. It's a shame the shooting mechanics are not even up to the older standards.

You might not be aware but there are 4 difficulty levels selectable in settings.

To be fair, all they do is to turn the enemies into massive sponges without adding anything to their questionable AI.
I'm playing on the last difficulty level and more often than not it feels like a poorer version of Borderlands.

I've been playing on very hard, that's literally all it does. Like always in Bethesda games. Changes a simple multiplier, so fucking lazy.

No patch for the weekend or next week probably, so gave it a shot on the laptop (2021 Legion 5) and desktop (5900x, 32GB DDR4, 3070).
Game seems absolutely CPU starved. Also is Render Resolution Scale somewhat related to FSR or is it just the "classic" setting that appears on some games for years now? By default the game launched with it at 62% or something like that, and there seems to be some split second screen resizing when you go from the inventory back to in-game, even with it at 100% but that's probably FSR2 kicking in.
On the first scene right after character creation with the high preset on display settings and FSR2 enabled FPS dropped to 50 lol (running the game @1200p). Can't wait to check out new atlantis performance 
Still have to try the DLSS2 mod, maybe that will help performance a bit.

An issue that needs desperate addressing is the freezes caused by swapping weapons. I read on reddit that it might caused by the ammunition in the inventory. But I dumped thousands of bullets and kept only what was absolutely necessary and it didn't work.

Exactly. I actually dropped it to easy just because the higher levels waste my time even more, for nothing gained.

No performance gain with das over far Toni. Just better visuals

Spongederp Squareheads is not my idea of increased difficulty.
Why not use the systems from Witcher 2 or Metro games (Ranger setting)?!
I'll tell you why: because they are dinosaurs, lazy, lack creativity and balls to change what 'does work for normies'...
/edit_sigh... I'd accept shooting spongederps (massive HP + braindead AI) but make it worthwhile, at least: ASSIGN DROPS of a HIGHER TIER, at least...
