    Um dos melhores games todos os tempos, só pelo choro dos sonystas já é possível perceber que a Microsoft fez um grande serviço.

    Explore o universo de Starfield e seja recompensado com uma grande aventura, que contém tudo o que a Bethesda costuma entregar em seus games.

    This game is incredible. A game has not grabbed me this thoroughly in many many years. I find it almost impossible to log off the game and when I'm not playing it I'm thinking about getting on and playing. The world and story and environmental graphics are amazing the combat is fun. This is a game that you can get lost in for 100 plus hours easily.

It also doesn't feel all that different from a Fallout game, something I think others are really leaning into as a big negative and while I agree, it's not something that makes the game irrelevant. It does feel like this game was probably meant for 2019-2020 and the scale was just too difficult to deliver on, especially with the pandemic interrupting productivity. Regardless, I'm digging this game quite a bit. Hopefully I can one day experience it closer to a stable 60 FPS but I don't have the cash that I'm willing to blow just to sniff that kind out output on my rig.… Expand

    Anyway this game is a typical Bethesda game. There are a bit of jank and can do with more optimisation. But the gameplay is fun, and the Bethesda RPG elements are all present and it is a game that I can engage in for hours and enjoy it.

    Should there be more bug fix? Definitely. Should there be more optimisation? Yes. Will Mods make the game better and allow players to play in the game they want? O man, will they ever.

    So for now it is a solid 8/10. And once the mod is fully out and the game is further optimised and bug fixed, it should be a solid 9/10.

    And for those who think (or pretend to think) that this is a space sim instead of a space cowboy RPG (if you argue that this is RPG lite I will grant you the point), you really need to go rinse your ear and learn to read and listen.    … Expand

Some planets have little more but some resources and others have installations. Keep eyes open everywhere for Magazines that give you buff to abilities or reduce some cost. Crafting has good depth but inventory system could use tweaking. right now its gather and manage then dump at your ship/ rinse and repeat. A higher carry capacity would help. like 250lb and a base storage in ship of 750 would be a good start.
    The game NEEDS proper DLSS 3.0 and FG to be implemented. I have a 5800x3d, 32 gigs ram and a 4070ti and on ultra game just chugs. More optimizations will be coming and will make improvements. Better driver optimizations are coming and will help. DLSS and FG are needed as well.

    Overall the game isn't a massive forward leap and many mechanics will feel very familiar to Fallout fans and it is really Fallout 5-ish in Space. For Fallout fans this is what many of us expected anyways.

    I say its a buy.    … Expand

    It's not perfect. There are some technical aspects that could have been avoided. The lack of DLSS, HDR not working as expected and it's a demanding game. But all these are minor issues. Baldur's Gate 3 suffers from more pronounced framerate issues specially on Act 3 and that hasn't resulted in many negative reviews. Starfield runs better on my PC than BG3. Baldur's Gate 3 also has loading between exteriors and interiors but for some reason, in that style of game it's not a problem. Why this double standard?
    There is a real issue with social media these days. Some people think it's cool to hate the big studio and its cool to support the rising star. So Larian Studios has been in the community good grace since the Divinity Original Sin days and now Bethesda is awful. People expected Starfield to be a game filled with bugs before it even came out. The reality is that it's one of the most if not the most stable release Bethesda ever made. CD Projekt Red faced the same ups and downs. Hero one day, villain the next. People seem to be losing objectivity and just following the herd.
    So, without getting into spoilers these are the type of things you can expect from Starfield:

    Starfield much like past Bethesda games, other MMOs and survival games, it starts slow. But as you explore the universe you start to find things that really show why Bethesda is so well known for creating open world RPGs. But you won’t realize it if you just play the game for a couple of hours. If you start from a skeptical position and are not open to immerse into the Starfield universe you will dismiss the game before the game can reward you with some of the best features, quests and other content.
    - Understand what you are getting into. This is a game where you can find quests everywhere.
    With several major quest lines that cover different sci-fi flavors. From Firefly, to Cyberpunk style places, to Interstellar. You can build your own spaceships. Fully mod your armor, weapons. Have multiple bases.
    You will find places in space where you will be exploring in Zero G. Despite not being a space sim focused game, you will be surprised by some of the events that will happen to you as you fly around. Space combat is indeed challenging and fun. It is not a full space sim but it is enough to give you that feeling.
    The “dungeons” vary from caves, industrial complexes, Doom style sci-fi bases as well as starbases of all kinds and other ”places” I will not disclose to avoid spoilers. They are diverse and fun to explore. FPS combat is challenging and fun and as you unlock more skills and get better weapons it becomes more and more addicting.
    Not everything is perfect but the game is stable, mostly bug free.
    Is it a perfect game? No. But it does give you the feeling that you are exploring different worlds. Finding interesting things. The huge number of quests and interesting places to visit really immerse you as you progress.
    Personally, what I love the most is that the universe feels alive with a lot of fun activities combining elements from other games. I can explore a planet and get some of the aspects of No Man's Sky, but then I find a pirate base and have truly fun combat experience. Afterwards I go to a major city and interact with dozens of interesting characters that give me missions and goals. Other scifi games have their advantages but none combine so many elements into one package with a AAA feel.
    So this is Starfield. Skyrim in Space.
    This is the best open world space themed scifi RPG right now. If you think there is a better alternative please, share. Outer Worlds? No this one is better, bigger in every way. Star Citizen? Unfinished. No Man's Sky? It's a pure survival/exploration game. Not a AAA style RPG. Cyberpunk? Not set in space. No ships, bases and other exploration related content. Everspace 2? Space focused. No ground exploration.
    Starfield is the only AAA game that combines elements made popular in several space theme scifi games into a package. It's not perfect but it's the best right now.
    And with modding support, space has no limits.    … 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.
