    Prometieron el juego del siglo y nos entragaron un juego donde el 90% del juego esta vacio!

    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.

    This is just slightly less buggy fallout in space.... Except the worlds are more boring. There's no point to exploring or trying to get creative, and the worlds are just made up of instances. If you're going to play the game, just beeline straight to the end. If you don't, you'll probably get bored and never play again.

    Biggest disappointment in games i had in recent years. The world is not immersive at all, npc AI behaviour is really bad, space flight is an illusion. For that price, just no. It feels like an indie game that you can get for 30-40$.

    This is like Skyrim in space but with S tier plots. The main story and Crimson fleet missions are amazing. The vast majority of negative reviews are coming from people who have a PC that can't run the game well, or possible never even played it

    Hello everyone. I will give my opinion about this game. Upon entering each planet, the player's eye is attracted to its attractive and different environment and stares at the game environment for a few minutes and then continues the game. The very smooth and flexible gameplay of the game is the positive side of the game, so that the player does not get tired after playing for hours. TheHello everyone. I will give my opinion about this game. Upon entering each planet, the player's eye is attracted to its attractive and different environment and stares at the game environment for a few minutes and then continues the game. The very smooth and flexible gameplay of the game is the positive side of the game, so that the player does not get tired after playing for hours. The huge game size of the game allows the player to play this beautiful game for several weeks. The graphics of the game are also among the best games. If you have a strong graphics card, you can be sure that a great pleasure awaits you. The story of the game also gets an acceptable score in my opinion. Overall, I give this game a score of 10/10. Thank you for taking the time to read my comment.… Expand

    First off, the pronoun stuff doesn't matter. Even if you're miserable and uninformed enough to get mad about how other people live their lives, you wouldn't even know the option was there(a minor option at the start of the game that is never significantly relevant again) without demented freaks online demanding you get upset about it.

Even if you're miserable and uninformed enough to get mad about how other people live their lives, you wouldn't even know the option was there(a minor option at the start of the game that is never significantly relevant again) without demented freaks online demanding you get upset about it. Don't let right-wing grifters dupe you into getting mad about that. What you should care about is how bad the actual game is, and not fake culture war nonsense.

    This game is just Fallout 4 again but worse in every possible way. The performance is absolutely dreadful even on high end hardware, and their previous games weren't known for being well optimised.

    As bad as Fallout 4 might have been as an RPG, it at least had a map that was fun to explore and live in. You could look in any direction and there would be something to go do over there, and the locations were varied and worth exploring. In Starfield, however, they have apparently gone for "realism" in the sense that most planets are completely devoid of anything worth seeing or doing, and this was on purpose according to their own Pete Hines(google search "Starfield planets were purposefully designed to be ‘boring’ says Bethesda"). When you land on a planet you are given a small patch of land on that planet to explore, before hitting invisible walls, and within that patch of land there may be 2-5 points of interest. Getting to any of these locations requires a five minute walk, as there are no land vehicles and you can't just hop in your ship to get closer, as that would generate a slightly different patch of land, thus resetting the locations to be different and placed a certain distance from the ship's landing point. During your five minute walk, you will encounter nothing. I mean literally nothing, no enemies, no minor buildings or objects, maybe a couple of non hostile animals that you can kill for material scraps, but nothing to make the journey at all exciting. Once you arrive, the location will be one of three or four different types of location. A cave will just be that, a small cave with some bits of material on the wall that you can waste your time mining. A space bandit hideout will be one of two or three bandit hideout templates that you will keep seeing again and again. All of this makes exploring extremely dull, which is bad news, considering that was supposed to be a major selling point for this particular game, and in this regard(and most others) it just falls on its face in the most clownish way possible.

    As a role playing game, it once again lowers the bar through the floor, removing any sense of unique character builds in favour of generic perks that are either so important that literally everyone would take them or so bad that it doesn't matter which you choose.

    The dialogue is so bland and lifeless it could easily have been written by some of the early AI chatbots from a couple years ago, each character is even more boring and uninteresting than the last, and your choices in dialogue always include two ways of advancing the conversation the same way but with reworded text, and one or two ways of asking more about the subject, which is literally never worth doing.

    The combat is somehow a downgrade from the already awful combat in their previous games, where enemies stand in place sponging your bullets without flinching as you empty your mag directly into their head, and their AI is so poor that just playing the game like you would any other results in the enemies being confused and unable to keep up.

    The ship combat is a pointless, dull, tacked-on waste of time, there's no gameplay to it beyond lining up your crosshair with the enemy ship and holding down the mouse button until their HP bar is depleted.

    This game really is failing on all cylinders, and the positive reviews truly make me question why I continue to hope for good video games when so many gamers are content with shameful slop such as this. There may be a couple slightly redeeming moments later in the game, but it's like an NPC says at the start of the game "The juice ain't worth the squeeze".    … Expand

    Bethesda has done it again, and this time they've reached for the stars! Starfield is nothing short of a space-faring masterpiece that has left me awestruck and eager for more. This game is a true gem in the gaming universe, and here's why I'm awarding it a well-deserved 5-star review:

Starfield is nothing short of a space-faring masterpiece that has left me awestruck and eager for more. This game is a true gem in the gaming universe, and here's why I'm awarding it a well-deserved 5-star review:

    Stunning Visuals: From the vastness of space to the intricate details of alien worlds, Starfield's visuals are breathtaking. The attention to detail in the environments and the beautifully rendered spaceships are a testament to Bethesda's commitment to creating immersive worlds.

    Epic Soundtrack: The score of Starfield is nothing short of epic. It perfectly complements the vastness of space and the sense of adventure as you explore the unknown. The sound design, from the hum of your spaceship's engines to the ambient sounds of alien worlds, is top-notch.

    Engaging Storytelling: Bethesda has always excelled in storytelling, and Starfield is no exception. The game's narrative is rich and captivating, drawing players into a universe filled with intrigue, mystery, and wonder. Every character, from fellow crew members to enigmatic alien races, feels alive and integral to the story.

    Infinite Exploration: Starfield offers an entire galaxy to explore, and the freedom to chart your own course. Whether you're a daring space explorer or a resourceful trader, there's something for everyone in this vast, open universe. The sense of discovery and wonder as you explore uncharted planets is unparalleled.

    Customization Galore: Bethesda has always excelled at character customization, and in Starfield, they've taken it to a whole new level. From designing your spaceship to personalizing your character, the options are endless. You can truly make the game your own.

    Seamless Gameplay: The controls are intuitive, making it easy for both newcomers and seasoned gamers to dive into the action. The gameplay mechanics, from space combat to on-foot exploration, are seamless and immersive.

    Modding Potential: Bethesda's commitment to modding support continues in Starfield, promising a vibrant and ever-evolving community that will undoubtedly add even more depth and content to this already incredible game.

    Starfield is a triumph for Bethesda and a gift to all gamers who have ever dreamed of exploring the cosmos. It's an adventure that will keep you hooked for countless hours, with its boundless possibilities, intriguing mysteries, and captivating universe. This game truly sets a new standard for open-world RPGs in the vastness of space. Bravo, Bethesda! Five stars well-deserved.    … Expand

    Game is a slow Start but once you start to dig in and figure out the mechanics the game opens right up. The MSQ so far ( about 24 hours in) is really interesting. There are an insane amount of side quests, faction quests and just random stuff little things to do. The planet exploration is fun. Some planets have little more but some resources and others have installations. Keep eyes openGame is a slow Start but once you start to dig in and figure out the mechanics the game opens right up.

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

    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.

    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.

    This game feels stuck in the 2010s. I enjoy a lot of parts of this game but they are outweighed by frustrating things. I was hoping for Skyrim in space, because I love Skyrim. But it is more of a Fallout in space and I do not like fallout at all. The gunplay does not feel great at all to me. Freedom to explore is good though. Weird choices with the menu too.
    Thank you for reading. Enjoy Gaming.

    So, this Space Skyrim/Fallout has turn out to be the biggest disappointment of the year. The WORST optimization I've seen since Batman Arkham Knight, coming from a game that has been developed for almost 10 years, and worked with this graphic engine for 20y. Makes no sense.

    Despite the performance, the game looks good aesthetic, but not appealing enough.

    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.
