Starfield

Cutscreen simulator. Leave the HQ (cutscreen) run to the UC offices to take the elevator down (cutscreen) you took the elevator down to get on a metro transit thingy (cutscreen) to get to the center part of town to run to your ship where via a (cutscreen) you get to space so you can via another cutscreen use your grav drive to get to another solar system where via ANOTHER cut screen you land on a planet where you walk through a door that gives you yet another cut screen. GIVE ME A BREAK MAN.

First off, a lot of the criticisms about this game are not wrong. Primarily the vast Starfield universe is mostly empty even though there is always "something" there. That something is never-ending copy paste outposts, enemy bases, and etc. Exploration (scanning) is incredibly dull and repetitive. The game lacks a certain sophistication. Once you play through a few of these cookie-cutter missions and encounters it is boring. Also the main story is illogical. The gaining temple power tasks of flying to the light is incredibly redundant and annoying. Why are you Mr Special and allowed "magic" powers anyway? The main story is clearly rushed or not taken seriously. The writers deserve a hard smack to recalibrate their neural pathways (a hardware reset) or be replaced. You are asked to overlook glaring flaws that can be taken as an affront, an insult, to the gamer's intelligence. This game lacks depth. I could go on and on about disappointments. Starfield was overhyped at launch. Todd Howard comes off as a bit shady. Yet I will recommend this game. The handmade faction quests are quite good. I enjoyed most of them. I do find myself coming back to this incomplete game from time to time. I say incomplete because it seems like it is a sandbox. Theoretically it could be filled in over time with better content. I am not so confident that it ever achieves what people want this game to be, but maybe it does improve. Maybe Todd can hire better creative writers and employ AI bots to assist them in realizing a much more in depth game? We do not want 10000s of copy paste "empty" redundant SPAM planets and systems. Yeah its spam. Fck off Todd. Who cares? It would have been much better to have a couple hundred well thought out and executed planets, environments, characters, and missions. The shipbuilder is great. Double down on this. It would be great if we could better control where to put interconnecting doors and ladders. The outpost system is a bit complicated initially, but I like it after taking some time with it. Maybe add more options? Please refresh Neon entirely. Its cheesy. It is a thinly veneered fake-out of Cyberpunk. The nightclub has lame dancers and wack music. Todd, stop being a punk and put some spicy intergalactic dancers in there. Neon isnt trendy or cool. It sucks, yet the game dialogues make it out to be some sort of super cool and edgy place. Add a more depth and visual stimulation to Neon, and to the game as a whole. So yes, I recommend this game with caveats. Don't get your hopes up. It does functionally satisfy a looter shooter space themed itch.

if you love loading screens this is the game for you its half the experience

Настолько унылый и душный калл который лагает сложно встретить. Тодд как всегда накормил какой. Вот вам FPSы https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3794254317

Honestly I read someone's comment that "we forgot how to enjoy videogames for what they are" I absolutely agree. Solid Bethesda worldbuilding, exploration, and nice combat. Now would I start comparing it to Red Dead 2 like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥? No. This game is fantastic for what it is. No comparison needed. Not apples and oranges. Didn't really deserve the hate. Solid 8.5/10

Reviewing after 100 hours played. I bought the game in mid 2026, having avoided it due to bad reviews. I've done the main quest, some faction quests, lots of side quests, have four ships (all from quests, bought no ships), have explored 39 star systems out of 1000. I don't know what the game was like at launch, but I find in 2026, it's a pretty good game. I give it a solid 8/10. Some mission content is probably a 5, some is a 10. That review score could easily go up because this game has so much potential. Some complain about Creations, player mods, about 11% of which cost a few dollars. I not only have no problem paying some guys for their hard work creating what are often excellent DLCs, I can see that this Creations system has the potential to fill the game with tons of great content (1000 star systems of content!). Starfield might be an 8/10 now, but in a few years, with all the content that players will create, it could easily become a 10/10. It really could be Skyrim in Space. It's not there yet, but I think it will be in a few years. What Starfield is NOT, is a space flight simulator. So many complaints were about it not being that. About loading screens. Blah, blah, blah. That is not the game. If you want that game, play Elite Dangerous. With regard to loading screens, here's a shocker, I like them. When I'm doing lots of missions, the last thing I want to do is waste hours flying around between planets. I like hitting a button and jumping to a planet so I can blast through the mission. A fade to black for a second or two, then continue the mission is good design, if you want to focus on getting missions done. You can still fly around in space if you want to, and I do that sometimes when I feel like it, and I skip it entirely when I don't. What is interesting is that after a hundred hours, I've only visited 39 star systems. I've been busy. I've tried out lots of content in the game. I have NOT tried to tick off every system, I've focused on the mission/story content. The quality of it varies, from a bit dull for activities, to surprisingly good for factions. I play on hard to very hard settings. It is pretty easy to outlevel some areas, but I just fly through those for the xp or credits, IF the content interests me or has a reward (like a ship) I want. Haven't done base building or much resource gathering, but I will at some stage. Looks ok. Skill progression is pretty good. I find BOTH space and ground combat are fun, and if you venture into a system too high for your level, you die. You can see the system's level before you go there with the map navigation, so you know what you're up for. Overall. A good game with great potential. Definitely worth playing if the idea of Skyrim in Space appeals to you.

逼着自己代入玩星空 和 逼自己吃屎没什么区别。

This game is a buggy, low-effort mess. I really, really tried to like it. Bethesda did not give a ♥♥♥♥ about the game. The universe is internally incoherent, the mechanics are barebone first try at any idea. Making outposts is a busywork of pain. The story makes no sense, and is entirely forgettable, even with sidequests and faction questlines, with a very very few exceptions. Avoid.

my entire thoughts on this game can be summed up in one sentence; this would be so good if it was actually good. the bones of a great rpg are here, but all of it is just so bland and toothless, from the characters to the story to the combat to the exploration. it's wide as an ocean and shallow as a puddle. not one character here feels like a real person. not one faction quest feels like it really matters all that much. every gun feels vaguely similar, no matter how many mods you slap on it. and yet for all that, i still keep coming back and hoping this time to find the game buried deep in there that i knew it could be. just a few tweaks; a writer that could create an engaging story and characters and wasn't afraid to actually say something with their work, a skill system that didn't lock core mechanics like boost packs or ship targeting behind wasting a skill point on it, more weapons that actually function differently rather than just stat changes... it could be there. this just ain't it chief. grab it for under 20 bucks and mess around, don't pay full price for it
