    Game runs like **** and the gameplay mid, generic looter shooter. exploration, ship and the planets are visual or cosmetic instead off fleshed out content. next gen marketing and pricing applied but last gen content deliverd.

    I can ignore some typical for Bethesda engine bugs at start because it possibly to fix in future patches.

    They are directly copy and paste story, special skills, most of game mechanics, game engine old poor mechanics from past games like fallout and skyrim BUT they did it badder.

    Its Skyrim without dragons, magic and mystic creatures. (you possible to get cry's like in skyrim)
    Its Fallout 76 with pathetic npc.

    - Endless loading screen - I wonder what will happen first - Bethesda will go bankrupt or change the game engine and hire talented writers and character mimicry designers. - Look up how things should be done in GTA or CyberPunk2077.

    - The cheesy story of the main plot. - Look up how it should be done in Baldur's gate 3.

    - Flat and unmemorable companions. - Sneak peeks at how things should be done in Baldur's gate 3.

    - Cheesy npcs facial expressions. - Look up how to do in Baldur's gate 3.

    - 5 auto-save slots and 1 quick save slot. you can't put 100 and 100 slots. If you didn't do a manual save - you lost the ability to come back. 5 autosaves is 15 minutes of game play. You are living in a single player open world rpg with a goldfish memory like in some roguelike. - Look up how to do it in baldurs gate 3.

    - Why make trash pickable if it's worthless and useless? It just wastes my time to see that it's garbage.

    - Why put the player in front of a choice - to become superhuman and step into the unknown or to remain an ordinary man and not go anywhere. It's a disgusting choice. Just allow in and out. why do it. ugly.

    The text highlights a dilemma faced by players in a game's final stage. They have the option to become a super being and enter the unknown or stay an ordinary person and continue living in the game's universe. However, the text criticizes the game for not clearly indicating that choosing to become a super being means losing all progress, including ships and completed tasks. Additionally, after only 15 minutes of playing in a new game+, the autosave system deletes all previous saves, eliminating the option to remain a normal person. The text argues that the game's development is lackluster, with outdated game engine, limited save options, and the developers disregarding player comfort and convenience.    … Expand

    Díky Todde! Další masterpiece od Bethesdy, ve kterém si užiji vyšší stovky hodin. Nicméně AI mohlo být trošku lepší... Budu se těšit na DLC, která snad hru ještě více obohatí o nekonečný obsah, do kterého se budu rád roky vracet. It just works!

    The game is good and interesting, but very outdated. A greedy producer should allocate some money to improve the technology, because it would be a shame to play a powerful idea in such an old shell. Frequent loadings in a game of this type are unacceptable.

    At the end of the tunnel the truth was revealed, Starfield was only media and paid reviews. The game is incredibly mediocre, from the AI to the scenario design, to the combat mode and the terrible game optimization, this game is not worth half of what it costs, maybe in a year because of the mods and the I developed this polish, but right now I feel like I'm looking at a game from two decades ago    … Expand

Depuis des années, les fans de jeux de science-fiction attendaient avec impatience le prochain grand titre de Bethesda, mais ce qu'ils ont obtenu est une déception monumentale.

    Tout d'abord, les graphismes de Starfield sont à des années-lumière derrière les normes actuelles. Les environnements manquent cruellement de détails, les textures sont floues et la modélisation des personnages est tout simplement dépassée. On dirait que le jeu aurait pu sortir il y a une décennie, ce qui est inexcusable dans un marché du jeu vidéo aussi compétitif.

    En ce qui concerne l'histoire, Starfield offre une trame narrative insipide et clichée. Vous incarnez un explorateur de l'espace sans personnalité, lancé dans un voyage sans but apparent. Les quêtes se résument généralement à "aller là-bas, tuer ça" ou "ramener ça". Aucune profondeur, aucun enjeu émotionnel, rien pour vous attacher à ce monde insignifiant.

    Le gameplay est une autre déception majeure. Les combats sont lourds, mal équilibrés et manquent de dynamisme. Les mécanismes de tir sont archaïques, donnant l'impression de jouer à un jeu des années 90 plutôt qu'à un titre de nouvelle génération. Les bugs et les problèmes de performance sont également fréquents, ce qui nuit encore plus à l'expérience.

    Enfin, parlons de l'exploration spatiale, qui devrait être le point fort du jeu. Malheureusement, elle est gâchée par une galaxie vide et sans âme. Les planètes se ressemblent toutes, et il n'y a pratiquement aucune activité intéressante à découvrir. L'univers de Starfield est d'une banalité consternante.    … Expand

    Bethesda managed with Starfield what I can only describe as a masterpiece of open world game design. An extremely well done main quest combined with engaging faction questlines and hundreds of fun side quests spread across a vast, massive galaxy and combined with a solid update in graphics since their last title makes this one of the greatest games I have played in years.

    After finishing the game, I have to give Starfield 1 extra point, others may not like the ending, I liked it very much. If they work on optimization and NPCs, I will even put the rating even higher. I didn't add in my earlier review about ship building, which is another great thing. Overall, I recommend everyone to pass, but rather on better computers, at least for now.    … Expand

    I am still playing it in the hopes that something clicks, but the immersion I expected will probably never be there. I'll move over to Star Citizen or NMS for my space exploration needs. This ain't it.

    Loading screen... Loading screen... You cannot fast travel while overloaded

    Starfield? Seems like it is about space, well - you get only unbalanced space combat. So the only thing you need your spacecraft is.... to store and craft items. And maybe you want just to customize it and make it look nice, but try to figure out how the build mode actually functions because the controls are crazy.

    Fast travel.... Loading screen.... Loading screen... Loading screen

    Exploring planets? You do not get any normal exploration, you get 3 points where you can land on the planet, and even if you select this point it will just generate another location on the planet for you.

    Loading screen.... Loading screen... Somebody shooting me in the space???? Loading screen...

    Shooting looks and feels really bad, I also dislike that crosshair that is located in the middle of the whole screen - ugly, white, big and uncomfortable.

    Loading screen.... Loading screen... Loading screen

    But you do not understand, this is the next-gen game that has poor animations and effects but still require 4090 to stably play at least 60 FPS. Do you think it will not be enough? Well, with 4060 on high settings and 2k resolution the card is not even 50% loaded, so probably Bethesda needs to fix the optimization.. oh wait, players will create modes and will fix everything, forget about Bethesda, they did what they did and will not even try to fix anything. IT JUST WORKS.

Less romancable companion than fallout 4, the ship combat is terrible, there a lot of loading screens everywhere, traveling is just fast travel on a map, they force you to walk places when you should have just landed next to your mission, you need to physically meet characters to talk to them even if it's just to turn something in. Outerworlds at least doesn't feel this silly you can talk to people through your comms all the time. There's no ambience or mystery like FO or Skyrim. It just takes itself really seriously. Then it becomes a joke with game elements that aren't realistic. You can build your ship, but you can start attaching things just for the system to tell you you need an engine out of you flying rank. Does that make sense? I'm not allowed to go buy a V8 Truck in the real world? I don't feel like talking to anyone, no one has anything interesting to say. The factions seem too similar and are all basically just the same thing. Most enemies will be mercs. Remember ME2's only bad guy. It's basically that. You are not voiced, and that can be a very good thing in a game like this, but in this case it's not. You don't get any extra talking points, you barely get the basics like lying and persuade. The days of making you character super intelligent and having extra dialogue or super dumb and extra dialogue is over at bethesda. I can't believe a small dev like obsidian beat you at your own game.

    Bethesda choose space and the future for this project, but we are still forced to travel and communicate like were in a wasteland. Shows you how shallow their games are without all the in-between.

During my 100 hours of playtime, I only found 4 minor bugs. The typical Bethesda jank is still present, such as NPCs walking in your face during a dialogue scene. The gunplay is by far Bethesda's best. Although the loading screens are common, they only take 1-2 seconds, so they are not a big issue. Furthermore, not being able to fly down to the surface of a planet is not a significant drawback because you would get nothing from it - I say this as someone who has put over 150 hours in No Man's Sky and about 30 hours in Star Citizen.

    The exploration in Starfield is quite unique compared to other Bethesda games. It's hard to explain, but the game's exploration is more vertical than horizontal. You will either love it or hate it. Unlike other Bethesda games, where you might see something in the distance and go to it, in Starfield, it's different. I enjoyed the main story more than any past Bethesda game, and I've played everything from Morrowind to Fallout 4. Starfield is more of an RPG than Fallout 4, but less of an RPG than Morrowind or Baulders Gate 3.

    TLDR: It's a good game if you like Bethesda RPGs and space, have a good PC, and are willing to pay $70 for a game. But it's not GOTY or as good of an RPG as Baulders Gate 3.    … Expand

    TLDR; Starfield is definitely a big step up since the last games Bethesda have put out. It's not technological marvel or anything revolutionary, but it is very good space RPG experience (not a simulator). Though, I must point out that since release of Baldur's Gate 3, the bar for great RPG experience or even game experience have been upped significantly. Starfield is not perfect and ITLDR; Starfield is definitely a big step up since the last games Bethesda have put out. It's not technological marvel or anything revolutionary, but it is very good space RPG experience (not a simulator). Though, I must point out that since release of Baldur's Gate 3, the bar for great RPG experience or even game experience have been upped significantly. Starfield is not perfect and I can't justify more than 8 as at the end, it's same old BGS experience, for better or worse.

    Narrative wise, it is far superior to it's recent predecessors and gameplay wise, slightly on par with Fallout 4, better with gunplay but relatively worse than Skyrim in exploration. Quests narratives I find very subjective. Some might like Starfield quests more than Skyrim's or Fallout 4's. I find myself enjoying some quests more, some less, but overall, they're pretty enjoyable, but definitely not S tier type of writing or plots. Bethesda did put lot more work in companions which is very noticeable compared to almost one dimensional followers in Skyrim or Fallout 4 with only exception of Serana from Skyrim's Dawnguard DLC. It's might be fair to say, they did learn their lesson with Serana and improved it. Though, they still struggle with face animations with all NPCs which is very noticeable when you spend most of the time talking. Compared to other recent releases, Bethesda is still stuck in old gen. Graphically, It's pretties game they made (which shouldn't be a surprise) and generally a good looking game graphically and artistically. BGS never disappoints with their hand crafted locations, which then brings us to now procedural stuff. In short - it's underwhelming. There is almost no reason to justify to stray of course of any quest to land on random, procedurally generated planet tile when there's almost nothing to do. Most planets are empty which shouldn't be a surprise as space is well... empty. But content wise, there is almost nothing to do besides running to one point of interest to another which are all randomly placed. They often repeat and provide only resources which is fine but gets boring very fast. Also what villain in Bethesda decided to cut vehicles from game? The only times I found myself landing on planets is to gather lacking resources or to build outpost, other than that, it's boring and sometimes tedious experience. Another flaw can be seen with spaceships - there's not much stuff do with them except having random encounters, few dog fights and fast travel. It's really underwhelming when you can't do much with Spaceships when game offers such a great spaceship building system which easily can become addictive and huge time sink. I found myself enjoying Starfield when playing as I've played any other BGS game - doing quests and just doing whatever I want in general. You're not pressured to do spaceship stuff if you don't want to, you're not obliged to explore all 1000 planets and you're not forced to finish main quest or any quest if you don't like them or want to switch to other. Hell, I'd say Starfield offers much more freedom in this regard then any previous titles. Overall game is solid experience and should be played at least once if you're RPG fan or BGS games fan, though I'd warn against picking this game up if you expect space sim, which will leave you terribly disappointed. It's Narrative explorative RPG through and through with it's short comings but with very big strengths.    … Expand

    This game has the worst AI of all bethesda games, even morrowind npcs have better AI.

    Played this game for nearly 30 hours, hand crafted parts of the game are great, but all the random generated planet "exploration" and the forced quick travelling destroyed it for me

    Hit a bug 8 hours in in the mission Into the Unknown that blocked my story progression entirely. Using commands to skip the mission meant I was permanently unable to equip powers and I refuse to start the game over again because the first 8 hours were already so mind numbingly dull. One of the worst video game experiences I've had in my life, do not buy this game.

    When I played Fallout 3 in 2008, I didn't want to stop. This is what happened to me recently with RDR2. God, that game was good! Starfield is pretty low. If only they had made Elder Scrolls 6 or Fallout 5. 8 years for such trash. Sad.

    This is a bloody **** The game is super buggy. The game is poorly optimized.
    It has so many bugs. This is definitely not worth your money (for now). Maybe in 6 months+

    Ortalama üstü bi oyun starfield yıllar boyunca oynanabilicek kadar büyük bence oyun 9 puanlık fakat yapılan oy saldırısı yüzünden oyunun puanı kötü etkilenmesin diye 10 veriyorum oyun bence tam olarak 9luk

    To a gameplay loop not so distant, Bethesda set sail,
    Promised by Todd Howard, a tale too grand to fail.
    At first, character creation caught everyone's eye. But further into the star field, the skies seemed awry. Performance, such a riddle, CPU hot GPU cold, Graphics left me puzzled, not the story we were sold. Loading screens odd, with times way too grand, On my speedy SSD??

    But further into the star field, the skies seemed awry.

    Performance, such a riddle, CPU hot GPU cold,
    Graphics left me puzzled, not the story we were sold.
    Loading screens odd, with times way too grand,
    On my speedy SSD?? Only Todd may understand.

    In space, the icons jittered, like a dance out of time,
    Menus were a jigsaw, navigation almost a crime.
    Radiant conversations, companions wouldn’t stall,
    Speaking over quests, could barely comprehend it all.

    Hostile environments, vast and immense,
    Yet, we tread on foot, which makes no sense.
    A flashlight’s meek glimmer, in the cosmos so vast,
    Why land so far away? Oh boy! CO2 is such a blast!
    The dialogue, repetitive, persuasion quite absurd,
    When exiting conversations, just the same old words.

    Power allocations, mostly, seemed like a jest,
    And the combat AI? Really not the best.
    Unresponsive interface, it made quite the mess,
    Targeting wrong ships, causing players distress.

    Yet amidst these flaws, some grace there still stood,
    The item models, and the art, were genuinely good.
    But we'll keep on dreaming, of a space game that's tight,
    Where quests are accepted, not dumped on you outright.

    Oh, Todd, dear Todd, you promised us the moon,
    But what you've delivered, is just a little cartoon.
    For now, I will stick to the stars in the sky,
    And hope for better luck with your next try.    … Expand

    There's a lot of flaws in space in Starfield. But that does not prevent me from exploring our galaxy again and again.

    I fell in love with Starfield. It's my cup of sci-fi and I can't wait to spend the next thirty, fifty, maybe seventy hours here. I enjoy the exploration, the shootouts, the art style, the ship building, and the diverse worlds. I gratefully acknowledge the good optimization and the absence of major bugs. But I can't overlook the flaws. There are bad animations, ugly faces and repetitive moments.[Issue#329]

    In a year dominated by sequels to franchise favorites, there was a hope that Starfield would carve its own path to success. While the team at Bethesda should be commended for taking such a big swing, there’s no denying that the game doesn’t feel like a cohesive work. Maybe continued support and future sequels will make something more meaningful out of a work that is clearly deeply enamored with both science fiction and space exploration. Unforunately, this first launch has had far more mixed results than desired.
