    O jogo é muito bom! No começo é um pouco confuso até vc pegar o jeito, o que é comum em qualquer jogo, principalmente com uma nova franquia. Muitas missões bacanas, exploração e upgrades, então embarque nessa jornada com pensamento de explorador, mundos vastos e cheios de coisas a se fazer, belos planetas e ambientação espacial fantástica. Estou me divertindo muito.

    "Exploration is in our nature. We began as wanderers, and we are wanderers still. We have lingered long enough on the shores of the cosmic ocean. We are ready at last to set sail for the stars." - Carl Sagan

    While Starfield may not be precisely what Carl Sagan had in mind when he spoke of setting sail for the stars, I believe Bethesda Game Studios has captured the essence of that dream
    "Exploration is in our nature. We began as wanderers, and we are wanderers still. We have lingered long enough on the shores of the cosmic ocean. We are ready at last to set sail for the stars." - Carl Sagan

    While Starfield may not be precisely what Carl Sagan had in mind when he spoke of setting sail for the stars, I believe Bethesda Game Studios has captured the essence of that dream remarkably well.

    Let me start by saying I am having an incredible amount of fun, and Bethesda has truly hit the mark with this game. Starfield is a heartfelt homage to classic BGS/Obsidian-style first-person ARPGs that will resonate with fans of these genres. You literally will not predict where this adventure takes you. Any preconceived notions you have from watching trailers or gameplay cannot fully prepare you for what is actually out there to find and explore. If that appeals to you, then this game was made for you, fellow explorer.

    Starfield might not appeal to everyone, but I can emphatically state that it resonates with me, and I'm thoroughly enjoying my time with it. I absolutely love this game. As a devoted sci-fi enthusiast, it checks many of my boxes. Furthermore, it represents a notable and substantial improvement over previous Bethesda games. Make no mistake; it retains the unmistakable Bethesda charm. In my opinion, this is the best Bethesda game to date because it represents the culmination of decades of lessons learned from developing Fallout and Elder Scrolls titles. It fills me with anticipation for future Bethesda releases. The game is also surprisingly polished, which has been a pleasant surprise. I have encountered no significant bugs during my playtime. As a side note, I believe the level of criticism directed at Bethesda and this game is unwarranted. Frankly, I cannot comprehend the basis for most of these criticisms. Nearly all the criticisms I've encountered are unjustified.

    There is so much to do in Starfield that it might almost be overwhelming, but surprisingly, that doesn't bother me in the least. I plan to spend thousands of hours exploring Bethesda's new universe, just as I have with their previous creations. I can't wait to see what lies beyond. I've already dedicated a considerable amount of time to exploration and side quests, yet I feel like I've only scratched the surface. This lack of pressure to rush through content is a breath of fresh air. Nothing quite compares to the single-player experience that Bethesda delivers.

    My System Specs: Core i9-9900KF/RTX 3070/16GB DDR4/SSD

    I've experienced a reasonably smooth 50-60 FPS average while running the game at a high/ultra mix of settings on my 1080p ultrawide monitor in outdoor environments. Indoors, I consistently enjoy a very smooth 80-100 FPS.

    Overall Score: 9/10 - I wholeheartedly recommend Starfield, particularly if you're a fan of science fiction and Bethesda's style of ARPGs. If you have a sufficiently powerful gaming system to handle this massive game, it's a must-play. While I don't have any significant complaints at this point, I refrain from awarding an arbitrary 10/10 mostly because Bethesda made me wait so long for this fantastic game!!! ...which is ironically probably fantastic because we had to wait! BAH! Fine... 10/10.

    For me this is definitely GOTY. Starfield is exactly what you can expect from a Bethesda game. Haven't had this much fun with a single-player game in years.
    It feels quite a lot like Fallout 4 but set in space instead. The looting, the exploration, the story, the sidequests, the companions are really good.
    If you like a good exploration RPG with a huge world, this is the game for you.

    I've always dreamed of someone making a game about space that captured the feel of some of my favorite sci-fi shows like Firefly and Cowboy Bebop etc. and this game accomplishes that and much much more.
    Starfield absolutely takes my breath away at every turn, from the stunning visuals to the space exploration and the seemingly endless amounts of well thought out content in this game, I feel like I could play Starfield for many years to come and never get tired of it. Each city feels like its own game, I find myself getting sidetracked from the main story very often by random side quests that usually lead to something extremely interesting.
    I haven't felt this way about games for a long time now; I feel like a kid again staying up all night not wanting to stop playing it.
    I'm already 80 hours in and I'm just scratching the surface of what this game has to offer. It's a phenomenal game in just about every way.
    Alright that's enough writing, it's time to jump back into the Starfield!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 100 hours in and I have beaten the game several times: Major spoilers.

    This is not a game for everybody. I will say that right now, its an epic space game that makes the most of the tech it has.

    Starfield is not a normal RPG, at its core a pure sandbox, and Space Opera Sim. The planets are simulated, along with an impressive physics and temperature/biome simulation. Each planet that can support life has between 2-12 Hand crafted, original creatures and plants. Each planet capable of hosting life also has several types of biomes, with separate life in each one. Some planets are seriously aggressive and terrifying, with hostile plant life and gasses emanating from it. The desolation and isolation of frontier is broken up by numerous hand crafted quests events and POI's. Countless named and un named crew can be hired for your starship and Outposts you create. Allowed you to play through just about any space fantasy you can have. Minor followers can have very deep back stories, with personal requests and quests.

    The dialogue is emotional, and the game actually reacts to the player in the background, adjusting the story based on relationships you build in the background.
    And once you finish the main quest, that's when Starfield shines brightest. New Game Plus is integrated into the story and even the philosophy of the game. MAJOR SPOILERS: Starfield gives the player a dilemma, they can live in the universe they know, or they can "move on" to a parallel universe. They gain more powerful ships and armor each run, and also there are chances for some "interesting" modifiers each runs. NPCs live different lives, Faction leaders can be different, and you can even get Special rare universes that are hardcore. Saving is disabled and you can only used unarmed. They are beatable. One I seen was filled with different reality versions of my character. in one of them they attacked me because a previous version of me was evil. Starfield is a masterpiece.

    If you like Bethesda games, you'll love this one. I'm about 30 hours in and have only completed a few main story missions. The faction quests and side quests are so deep and detailed I might never get to the main story!

    Starfield é simplesmente um maravilhoso RPG, e o melhor jogo da Bethesda que já joguei até o momento, uma história cativante que só faz você querer se aprofundar cada vez mais, super recomendo para quem ainda não jogou.

    Play it on a SSD with a good CPU and you’ll be treated to the best first person RPG in years. Bethesda has gone back to their roots and crafted a special experience that gives you more when you play it by its terms and give more to it. Give it a chance.

    Currently 30 hours into the game. This is the most premium, well made Bethesda game of all time. It is now my favourite bgs game ever made. I lose track of hours. When I'm not playing, I'm thinking about what to do next in game, or talking to friends about it, or watching streams of it.

    I love this game.

    PROS
    Illumination and design for all terrains and planets
    Simullation of planets and moons gives the environment a good look for wallpapers and immersion Gunplay is good enough to give you the best experience Spaceship and outpost building Main Quest + Side Quest gives you a loooot of gameplay hours CONS NPC AI is floppy, needs more work, npcs sometimes dont react to events around

    CONS
    NPC AI is floppy, needs more work, npcs sometimes dont react to events around them, also combat... well, combat is enough but can be better
    Loading Screens are here and there, not a big issue and you need to stay in line that this is not a Simulator but only a game setted on space
    NPC faces and some animations are kind of outdate

    The game is enough good to be a Must Play, lacks of some features and the engine can be outdate but the rest of aspects gives you a good experience, If you loved skyrim and fallout series you will love Starfield... and wait!! Mods are comming to give us years and years of gameplay.

    Yes, the game is not perfect. It does have its flaws, like loading screens and the occasional wonky NPC that shambles by. But having said that, it's still the most fun I've had with a game all year. This is easily my Game of the Year as it even beats out Zelda: TOTK, in my opinion.

    Yes, the game is not perfect. It does have its flaws, like loading screens and the occasional wonky NPC that shambles by. But having said that, it's still the most fun I've had with a game all year. This is easily my Game of the Year as it even beats out Zelda: TOTK, in my opinion.

    If you go into this looking for No Man's Sky you'll be disappointed. If you go into it looking for a Bethesda RPG, there's a lot to love. It's a Bethesda RPG through and through. Lots of quests, side quests, random encounters, emergent storytelling, etc. You can even be a space pirate and attack and board ships and then steal their ship and make it your own. If you're into base-building and ship-building there's a lot to love here too, but I haven't dabbled too much into that.

    It's also worth noting that this is the most bug-free game Bethesda has ever had at launch, which is fantastic. I haven't noticed many bugs and have had zero crashes. Some people don't want to mention this because they're sadists and want to punish Bethesda for past offenses from decades ago. I ask you, if you're a teacher and a student who consistently gets D's starts to work hard and then gets an A, do you continue to punish the child for their failures of the past or do you congratulate them for a job well done? A decent, sane person would congratulate them. Only a psychopath would continue to punish them.

    It's also worth noting that this is the most beautiful game Bethesda has done. Yes, some character models are weird, but the environment art, from the natural landscapes to the cluttered base interiors, is sublime. Their Global Illumination techniques are gorgeous and work very well. Sure, the game isn't as pretty as Cyberpunk or Horizon Forbidden West, but so what? This game is doing so much more than them.

    Instead of focusing on the few things the game doesn't do, focus on all the things this game is actually doing. And it isn't any one thing. You need to see the forest for the trees and see the totality of the experience. Sure, you can't directly fly from planet to planet like NMS, but who cares? NMS doesn't have the some degree of role-playing quests and storytelling. And most of NMS's planets have one biome, whereas some of Starfield's planets have up to 4 distinct biomes on one planet.

    I love this game more with each passing day. It's a genuinely special experience and if you like CRPGs it is very much worth your time. It gives as much as you put in.

    Note: I've been playing on both XBox and PC.

    Starfield is a masterpiece. I traded in my PlayStation 5 because I was tired of walking simulators, don't get me wrong I love a good walking sim and am not ashamed of it. Starfield just does what other games on my old platform don't, it gives you pure freedom of exploration.

    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.
