    The game is top, don't listen to anyone. Super classic bethesda game, if you like the bethesda, you will like it, if not, then no. Most of all, the game design looks like oblivion, but a lot of mechanics from fallout four. Well, this is their biggest game, even if we exclude randomly generated content.

    Starfield is a Bethesda game through and through and the experience is similar in a lot of ways to other BGS games. The big difference in Starfield is with scale, the scale of the game in locations is just absolutely massive!

The big difference in Starfield is with scale, the scale of the game in locations is just absolutely massive! Even with 70+ hours in the game I cannot say I have even come close to exploring everything.

    A lot of people out there are either rating the game as a 10 or as a 0-3. None of these, I think, are truly honest reviews. Starfield is a game that has strengths and weaknesses. There are parts of the game that are really good and there are parts that are flawed.

    First the strengths:
    - Exploration in this game is something that truly feels like exploring. With the massive scale of the game, differences in the environments, and alien nature of those environments Starfield really does make you feel like you’re visiting another world. - Customization is something that exists in multiple areas of the game with you being able to customize your spacesuit, ship, weapons, outposts, and houses. The customization is non-trivial here! The shipbuilder especially gives you a lot of freedom in how you do things and you can build anything from a smaller fighter craft to a massive cargo hauler. Starfield also introduces research to the game which is interesting and makes you work to unlock powerful attachments.

    - Quests, I find that the story and quests in Starfield are more varied and interesting than in previous BGS games. There’s something for everyone with quests delving into stealth, horror-combat, investigation, and spying. - Weapons in Starfield are interesting and there are some cool weapon types that are very fun to use!

    - RPG systems in the game are an improvement. Your background, factions, and accomplishments all give you new dialogue and sometimes even ways around things! - Progression in Starfield is varied and you can to build your character how you want while still needing to actually fit the play style to progress with the perks you are choosing.

    - The world built here is interesting and it shows that BGS has not lost its chops for this kind of work!

    - The New Game+ mechanic is refreshing for a BGS game allowing you to start in a new game while keeping your characters progression (though not their items!)

    And now, flaws:

    - Quests. While overall I say the quests in Starfield are well written, the first part of the main quest line is a little boring and the very first quest doesn’t make much sense. After the first maybe 1/4 of the quest line it gets a lot better but that what’s really missing is a hook to grab your interest.

    - Exploration in Starfield can sometimes be frustrating! You land on a planet to go to a location or even decide to go exploring and everything is 500m+ away! I understand that this is realistic for a sparsely populated planet but you’d think there would be some gamification of this so that it wouldn’t be as frustrating.

    - Enemy AI is dumb! Enemies do not fire enough at you and they react poorly. This can make combat too easy and you don’t get to use all of the fun guns in interesting ways.

    - Bugs! Starfield has all the same types of bugs as every other BGS game. This can be funny sometimes, even charming, but it is something that loses its charm when you see it too often. Starfield isn’t bad for BGS but you’d expect better given the work that went into this game.

    - Nothing in Starfield is explained well! Starfield introduces massive scale and multiple new systems to gamers but it doesn’t explain most of it. This includes how the planets show up on the map, to ship part power requirements, to some of the UI functionality. Now that I have almost three days of play time I understand things but it was frustrating at first.

    - The economy in Starfield is unbalanced. You get huge amounts of credits for everything so that you can pay for starships and their mods but it makes everything else laughably cheap. I currently have over 400,000 credits on my character and the most expensive guns right now may cost 20k-40k. Resources are even cheaper costing only a few ~300CR per resource meaning that outposts, research, and equipment upgrades are easy to do and very cheap.


    Overall:

    Common complaints about Starfield are trivial in my own view, such as flying planet to planet (which you CAN do, it just takes hours). If Bethesda made flying planet to planet gamified where it takes no time at all people would complain about realism but BGS made them far apart and now people are complaining about warp loading screens. A lot of the complaints about Starfield are people being very harsh on the game and these complaints should not alter the overall perception of what is a solid game.

    Despite its flaws and because of its strengths, when I sit down to play Starfield I have a very good time and I see myself playing it for hundreds of hours. I think that some fixes are in order but I am confident when I say that Starfield is an 8/10    … Expand

    I have played Starfield for approximately 40 hours since the early access release. And I can't even call it a Bethesda game. Bad:

And I can't even call it a Bethesda game. Bad:
    They gutted the exploration, added this leveling system that is constantly janky especially with the enemies (you may get clustered of level 5s with 75s), combat is marginally improved, story is no different than the usual almost A.I. type writing from Bethesda games, graphics are Fallout 4 with massive heaps of duct tape to cover the issues. Space in this is a joke and should never have even been advertised. There are definite performance issues that I can only conceive as the reviewers being paid off to say they don't exist: heaps of buggy models, animations, and visuals. For the first 10 hours I was crashing every hour. Lots of walls can simply be walked through as well as some npcs getting glitched requiring you to reload your save. A.I. is also the worst yet from a Bethesda game.
    Also, New Game+ is barely anything different than the main game.
    Good:
    Some specific side quests are good and should have been the main story instead. Ending is definitely intriguing and I almost felt pulled by the story to figure it out until they do a B.S. handwave of most of the questions I had. The non-procedural worlds are much better and invoke some of the good times from Fallout 4. Cool system that allows photos taken in-game to be placed as load screens. There are a lot of things to do, but this leads into the issue of most of those things are dreadfully boring. Middling:
    The dialogue will either captivate people or bore them because no one dares to express a solitary emotion that isn't subdued or muffled by low audio when recording their lines which leads to the music drowning them out at points. Music for me was just stock standard space tracks. I really don't understand the praise for it when most is very subtle rhythms that are too close to Fallout 4's. The 1000 planet situation... I've explored about 25 planets and after the 5th I started to encounter the same areas procedurally placed onto others again and again. This may be alright for some because there are quite a few variations but it wasn't doing it for me. Load screens are an issue but don't kill it. There are at times 4 loading screens to go through which may take between 2 to 3 minutes to complete. Much of the game is done through the menu and inventory system, more so than even Baldurs Gate 3 which boggled my mind. In the end it's meh, get it for free with gamepass if you got it already but definitely don't go out of your way to purchase especially the $70 version. I can't even recommend this for Bethesda fans because the ability to just walk in a direction to see what you can find is fundamentally not here which was paramount to my enjoyment of Fallout 4, which although I enjoyed, was very middling as well.    … Expand

    A bland mess of poor technical optimization, shallow mechanics, and uninspired writing. It's a game that feels fifteen years old, looks five years old, but runs like it came from ten years in the future even on top of the line hardware. The performance issues cannot be understated: this game relies on frame generation (FSR2/DLSS via mods) to achieve anything near a playable frame rate.A bland mess of poor technical optimization, shallow mechanics, and uninspired writing. It's a game that feels fifteen years old, looks five years old, but runs like it came from ten years in the future even on top of the line hardware. The performance issues cannot be understated: this game relies on frame generation (FSR2/DLSS via mods) to achieve anything near a playable frame rate.

    Even if you have the hardware to run Starfield at an acceptable level, there's not much here for you. Starfield time gates its limited content behind grind at every turn. Lockpicking, core to the worn out Bethesda formula of looting, is gated behind perk points and a required amount of containers/doors lockpicked. Trying to pick this perk late in the game will leave you looking for Novice tier locks for hours, as everything you find is Advanced, Expert, or Master tier.

    Most of the character progression or even core game features are similarly gated behind perks. To name a a few, these include: targeting for space combat, access to weapon mods, the jetpack, parts for your ship. All of them are perks, requiring you to both grind out the experience points as well as the perk-specific challenges to advance. While this isn't a terrible system, too much of the game is gated behind this. You want to build a network of outposts producing something for you, fully unlock shipbuilding, combat or social skills? Expect to sacrifice all other character progression for dozens of hours to do so.

    The economy is similarly time-gated, and there seems to be no way to earn credits legitimately in-game that's faster than looting drops off enemies. While you can capture other ships and sell them, you'll need to register them first. This registration fee will eat up 90% of your profits, leaving you with 1-3k credits for selling off a ship. A amount comparable to selling a single weapon or space suit dropped from an enemy. Considering that you would've also looted a couple of enemies when taking of the ship, you earn more from them than the ship itself.

    Speaking of things that don't make sense outside the context of wasting players time: planet exploration. This consists of an instanced zone with a handful of points of dubious interest and a dotting of resources for you to mine. These points of interest are several minutes of walking in a straight line apart, giving you plenty of time to take in just how empty the world feels.

    The outpost system is just as half-baked as it was in Fallout 4. At least you're not getting called up to defend them every five minutes, but that's about the only good thing to say about it. While it lets you ship resources between different outposts, you're not given any way to filter items from arriving shipments. This means you can at most receive three types of resources per outpost. While you can theoretically set up a series of outposts to automate production and make credits this way, I'd expect that you'll make more by looting enemies.

    Finally, a brief word on quests and companions. The writing assumes that the player is always willing to meet it more than halfway, that the player will always be interested in whatever exposition is being spouted at them. It feels equally lazy and arrogant, as if it expects you to happily engage with whatever nonsense is presented to you. From assuming player motivation in the presented context, to player interest in cardboard characters, all while expecting the player to disregard massive plot holes.

    To wrap this up, Starfield is an iteration on the same game Bethesda has been trying to make since Morrowind. This time it has a space skin, uninspired writing, massive grind and terrible technical performance. Save your money and time.    … Expand

Copy paste laziness, masquerading as something new when it’s nothing more than a single dense environment fractured into 100 lifeless boring (main)planets. What’s shocking after 40 hours of play is how empty everything feels. How is it possible that not a single planet in the universe has more than a central hub and 3 non centralized (pointless) locations. You run forever to discover a building with 2 people in it. The graphics are sub par for 2023 and poorly optimized. There’s no reason why a 13600k (20 threads, 5ghz turbo on 4) and a 4070ti should be struggling to maintain 60@4k and (worse yet) 120@1080p. Character models are all soulless drones with dead eyes. Color filter is unnecessary and removal is the top mod people download. The menus are terrible. You spend 1/3 of playing this game in the menu system or watching 6 second cut scenes of your ship moving. I’ve probably watched 2 hours of my ship taking off, landing, entering space, entering warp speed… so painful and no way to skip it. Besides the massive amount of time you’ll spend in the menus, they’re also poorly designed. The best description I heard was that they’re like a messy room. You know where stuff is but you can’t find it.

    The most infuriating aspect for me is a lack of inventory item count when buying resources. I constantly over-buy or forget to buy items because of the arduous process of menu hopping to check. There are parts that are fun, but they’re spaced out(pun) and locked behind 5 min of pointless dialogue followed by menu hopping and glorious cutscenes of your ship… lol. If another game I’m anticipating came out right now, I would drop this like a hot potato. I would also struggle to recommend it to anybody as the “you just need to get past the first 10 hours for it to get good” caveat, in an elevator pitch is too big a hurdle. This game is simply, “ok”. It’s good moments are often overshadowed by the frustrating aspects. You will groan a handful of times per gaming session.    … Expand

    It's a Bethesda game, with all it's glorious glitches and problems. The map is simply atrocious the gun play is at the very least entertaining. There are many, many, MANY sidequests, as always, meaning that you can level up fully and never finish the main quest at all.

Your ship only exists to allow the idea that you are able to do interstellar travel, taking off and landing on planets is a cutscene, if you are in orbit and want to check out another planet in the system then you have to open up your map so you can plot a course and enter a cutscene that sends you there, this- though technically is a space-game, is not a space-game at all. If Bethesda could've kept their scopes on one star-system which wouldn't even have to be our own, then I think this could've been a really neat game. There is Bethesda world-building in the game, but you have to traverse so many clunky menus and UI and loading-screens that it is just a hollow shell of a game with pretty skyboxes. Yes you can take over ships and customize them, but Bethesda really missed the mark when they decided on not letting you take parts from one ship and transfer them to another, that alone would've been huge! Base-building is Fallout 4 just more inconvenient and clunky. I really really wanted- and still want, to love this game but it is impossible when you know what this game could have been.… Expand

    Just, meh. Nothing innovative. Does a lot of things but none of they very well. This game was way over-hyped and not even close to the game of the year as they lead on. Would have rated it higher if it wasn't for them making the game feel like more than it was. It's just a run-of-the-mill Bethesda game and the story is unbearably boring.

    Where Starfield excels is in the immersive exploring on the planets. No it’s not seamless and you can’t manually land but personally I find that a good thing. Once you’ve done a boring arcadish landing once you are going to fast travel. It’s the side quests and exploring that makes this a great game.    … Expand

    They keep using this outdated Creation engine they've made for Morrowind (It just has a different name). The gameplay mechanics are quite dull. Shooting looks outdated, lockpicking is boring and looks outdated, and the oxygen/stamina system is a piece of garbage.
    The game is not open-world anymore. The faction system looks artificial and exists just to add a standard for the series quest lines. Randomly generated stuff is just a copypaste.
    I'd say a lot more, but I want to make it short:
    - "Early access," which is just a scam and an attempt to force people to pay an extra 30$ bucks for the air.
    - Bad visual style (colors and palette). Everything looks grey-ish
    - Absolutely worst optimization (PC/Consoles)
    - Your companions are worthless except for keeping the trash you are collecting
    - The main story is a piece of garbage
    - Tons of empty dialogues

    And turns out I had more fun playing that than my friends who played Starfield.

    When i finally tried the game i saw it's gray and dull, the story is boring and didn't grab me,
    but what is improved from other Bethesda games is the gun play, and that is why I didn't gave the game a 0, but 6, the gunplay almost makes me want to play this poor game.

    Honestly I even missed that this game has pronoun selection, I mean I hate catering to the trannies so I'm lowering the score.

    And lastly the world exploration is worse than Fallout 4.

    Bethesda needs to retire their engine
    NetImmerse -> Gamebryo -> Creation Engine -> Creation Engine 2 (this engine is still based on Engine from 1997)

    The game runs kinda poorly even on hi-end rigs, but like that's all tripeA games now.

This game could perfectly be called Fallout 5. It's as if they had copied things from Skirim, Fallout and other games, with the same sense of missions and mechanics with their procedural worlds that I don't like at all. But not everything is bad, the main missions are entertaining, the creation of the ships, which is their strong point, and the "linearity" that you can have in this game. I emphasize the worst thing is its AI, the truth is that it is the part that most disappointed me, no, being an rpg it must have some difficulty it doesn't matter if you increase the difficulty the nocs don't change their water they are just like a sponge from which they absorb a great amount of bullets haha ​​..

    OUTROS ASPECTOS:
    -Não é muito intuitivo em algumas ocasiões, mas não considero isso um contra por nao ser nada impossível de descobrir sozinho
    -Apesar do excesso de loading, todos são extremamente rápidos comparados a jogos bem mais antigos


    No geral, o jogo não é tudo aquilo que prometeu, mas é quase. Se o jogo permitisse a viagem de planeta a planeta (como no No Man's Sky), tivesse uma IA mais inteligente e expressões faciais menos bizarras, com certeza seria um 9.5 a 10 pra mim. Apesar disso, o jogo é MUITO bom, divertido e com uma infinidade de coisas pra fazer! Pra quem não gosta muito de batalhar, tem a opção de farmar, construir nave, construir bases em vários planetas, explorar, conquistar 100% de conhecimento de todos os planetas de uma galáxia por exemplo. Pra quem gosta de muita ação, o jogo tem muita dungeon, várias invasões à naves com ou sem gravidade (invadir uma nave e desligar a gravidade dela é muito divertido, sério), além de muitas espécies de animais diferenciados em cada planeta q vc visita.

Below I'll share some of my thoughts.
    1.It is inevitable for a game to have some defects. However, over-emphasizing and repeating discussion of these shortcomings can negatively impact players' gaming experience and emotion. As players, we need to take a balanced view towards the limitations of each game, and actively find the highlights and core fun.
    2.As an independent game company, Bethesda has established its own distinct style and open-world game philosophy since the 1990s, which can be traced back to the heritage of The Elder Scrolls series. We should not simply require Bethesda to create games according to the current mainstream trends, but appreciate its unique personality in game-making.
    3.Many players expect space flight and space station experiences in Starfield. However, Bethesda's expertise lies traditionally in allowing players to find fun through rich quest designs and open-world exploration. We should not require Bethesda to change its creative direction based on our own expectations, but embrace its personalized style.
    4.The RPG game genre originates from tabletop games. As one of the representative companies of this genre, Bethesda also retains the foundation of immersing players through rich character-building and story-telling. We should not over-emphasize space navigation experiences while ignoring Bethesda's consistent focuses on character and narrative.
    5.Every game has its strengths and weaknesses. Facing some shortcomings in Starfield, we should not completely reject or boycott this game emotionally, but accept the game as a whole and find the praiseworthy highlights in it.
    6.Returning to personal gaming experiences rather than over-referring to various online reviews can better help us discover the essence of a game. This is the real fun and nature of gaming.

    Chinese:

    是一位来自中国的玩家，很庆幸在2011年大学接触了b社的游戏，而在随后进入社会生活中，逐步接触了各种RPG以及ACT游戏，以及他们的混合物，到了现在，认识到RPG的根源几乎和CRPG，或者叫TRPG的桌游密不可分，我想，星空这个游戏，应该是大家值得游玩的游戏，错过着实可惜，下面就提下我的看法：
    1.游戏本身或多或少会存在一些缺陷,这在游戏开发中也是难以完全避免的。但是如果过度放大和反复强调这些短comings,很容易影响玩家的游戏体验和情绪。作为玩家,我们需要平和地看待每个游戏的不足之处,并积极找到游戏的亮点和乐趣核心所在。
    2.Bethesda作为独立游戏公司,从上个世纪90年代就已经有了自己鲜明的风格特色和自由开放的游戏理念,这可以追溯到老滚时代的传承。我们不应简单以当下主流趋势的视角要求Bethesda进行创作,而应该欣赏其独树一帜的个性化作品。
    3.很多玩家期待在星空中体验宇宙飞行和各种空间站的游戏体验,但是Bethesda的专长传统上更擅长通过丰富的任务机制和自由开放的环境探索来让玩家寻找乐趣。我们不应该以自己的预期视角要求改变Bethesda的创作方向,而是接受其个性化的风格。
    4.CRPG这一角色扮演游戏类型源自桌游,Bethesda作为这一类型的代表公司之一,也保留了这种注重通过丰富角色和剧情让玩家产生代入感的根基。我们不应过分强调宇宙空间的漫游体验,而忽视了Bethesda一贯关注的角色塑造和故事讲述方面。
    5.每个游戏都会有其长处和短处。面对星空中出现的某些短comings,我们不应情绪化地完全否定或抵制这个游戏,而要平和地接受游戏的整体,并找到其中值得欣赏的亮点。
    6.回归个人的游戏体验感受,而不是过度参考各种网络评价,更有助于我们发掘游戏的精髓所在。这才是玩游戏的乐趣和本质。    … Expand

From the soulless husks of NPCs ignoring you shooting their shop up to their empty Stares (Starefield is real) to the shallow combat and tedious quest design from the ancient times, where quests were all about fetching 10 Guffins to the McGuffin Man so he can tell you what a Good Boy you are. And of course being a complete rando who, for an inexplicable reason, everyone trusts implicitly do to their dirty work.

    I like Bethesda RPG Formula but this one is getting super stale and Garfield doesn't improve on ANYTHING. Everything feels stanky old, with no innovation, not a single fresh idea or thought. A rehash of Ancient Gaming.

    But there are positives! The game sounds amazing. The writing is, surprisingly, NOT cringe and is way, way above the **** the like of Mass Defect: Andromeda, for example. The detailed environs feel fun and the immaculate detail to many interactions are quite immersive, even if that immersion is broken 5 minutes later by a Bethesda Certified Bug.

    Solid game, in total, but a bit of a yawnfest.    … Expand

    The game is just amazing.

    Bethesda has made a breakthrough in the industry. Everything is perfect in this game, a large number of various quests, exploration of the open world, a feeling of the endless emptiness of space.

    Of the shortcomings, only the main plot, as well as the beginning of the game, can be noted. It can ruin your entire gaming experience.

    1) Hideous NPC Models, and non immersive interactions with them and the cities. NPCS are very uncanny valley and if you shoot your gun in the city they don't even flee in terror. They disappear in an elevator instead of actually riding it, even Golden Eye on 64 had working elevators.

    3) Planets are boring. Magnificent desolation Todd says, well its more of the latter. Even the ones with life have only or or two reskinned boring animals. No ecosystems, food chains, or interesting biology. Terrain generation leaves a lot to be desire, Minecraft did it better. The points of interest are of few types and will start to repeat early on. Caves are small holes with some minor loot. Minecraft cave system much better.

    4) Horrible performance, that isn't justified by the visuals. Even in doors the game performs poorly on up to date hardware.

It's strange that Hines does it, and even stranger that Spencer does it. This game was supposed to be XBOX's salvation because it had been years since they released a decent AAA title; it wasn't just money at stake, but also their reputation. After the disasters of Halo Infinite and Redfall, in which Spencer was hanging by a thread, they needed to do damage control, and a marketing battle ensued, inflating everything from press releases touting Starfield as a masterpiece to concurrent player numbers. There are already Reddit threads about the game's lies, hype, and technical issues, but I don't want to go into detail so I don't sound like a broken record. I was disappointed with Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 after having enjoyed Fallout New Vegas, which is a **** masterpiece despite its flaws. Skyrim had its high points, but it wasn't the best Bethesda could offer, especially with a sometimes stupid narrative like the Thieves Guild. Bethesda appeared to abandon their fanbase in order to "modernize," betraying us in favor of new players who only wanted action and collecting forks, where quantity was more important than quality, but with Starfield, they went to the extreme: in 2023, they presented a game with the quality of something from two decades ago. The architecture, player expression, and narrative design are all terrible. An AI appears to have written the plot, dialogue, and NPCs. There is no freedom, no choices with narrative consequences, the gunplay feels like an AA indie, and the mission structure is to be a messenger, fetch items, press buttons, or give materials, with A and B decisions identical in almost all of them and nothing changing in the gameplay ecosystem. It is not news that Bethesda has fallen behind with its graphics engine, but it is sad that with games like Planescape Torment, Gothic, Dragon Age Origins, Mass Effect, Fallout New Vegas, The Witcher 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, Disco Elysium, Octopath Traveler, and the recent Baldur's Gate 3, which as an RPG surpasses it in reviews and simultaneous players even a month after its release, they are still using the same generic clichés from decades ago. It's time to move on, Bethesda. You have so much more than just Starfield.… Expand

The load screens were still the issue, now these could be due to the Gamepass version of the game is what I tested with so your experience may very. There were still stuttering in places and the fact I also had the game crash on the Xbox Series X a couple of times and even on PC with a Ryzen 5800 X3D, Nvidia 3060 OC, and 32GBs of Ram… on an NVMe SSD there was a lot of stutter in the game. Now these can be potentially patched out but we shall see. As of now I can not rate this game higher than a 7 unlike certain X users who call people delusional and bash them who rate this game honestly. Don’t buy into the hype yet, wait a few months before buying in.

    At most this game is a 7 but it’s because at the time of writing this review and over 3 days worth of play time I can say it’s not really a complete game, it’s not worth the $70 price tag. Honestly if you get it, just go ahead and play it via gamepass or ask a friend to game share with you. It has bugs, texture fails, the trees in certain planets look like they were copy and pasted from an N64 game… also the water has no splash effects and doors seem to be floating away from the wall… Honestly I can’t stress this enough don’t waste $70 on this title only buy it via gamepass or for $30.    … Expand

    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.
