    Much improved graphics and minimal bugs, there is a ton to do in it. I'm around 80h in and still discovering new stuff.

    This game is a lie. I enjoyed my 60 hours of gameplay, until I knew I were lied. Since that moment I understood this is just a generic space adventure without any memorable sense or emotion, for me.

    One of the best games ever made. Not quite done with it but loving every minute so far. Massive improvements on the BGS formula which was already excellent. Inflated my score a bit to offset all the butthurt Sony Ponies review bombing the game.

    For a ryzen 3600 with a 2060 super and 16gb of ram run pretty smooth, looks nice feels nice 23h in 2 day just playing and im not close to anything, space its beautiful and the travel its more fun manually with ship than the easy skip that many complain, its an option you can do it the long way and enjoy space.

    This is a game were im already looking myself playing for over a decade, like f3, nx, f4, an even skyim with ive never played until last year, the formula works and the game play its refined, official modding its not here and i have already 20 mods installed lol its owning a car anf improve it bit by bit.

    in short: FUN!: :D

    I don't get what the bad reviews are. Is this fanboys or what? I've heard that people didn't like loading screens (which game doesn't have them?). Which I slightly understand, but that makes the game an 8 at worst. I'm old school so it didn't bug me. It's flawless. Perfection Todd. You did it.

    DO NOT EXPECT TREAT THIS AS A SPACE SIM!

    And get rid of the false advertisement, marketing that Bethesda sold you like "unprecedented freedom" to explore a thousand planets, that "We are putting you in the cockpit of your very own spaceship and telling you that you can do pretty much anything." (Actually just loading screens when we are traveling unless you gonna spend hours flying),
    DO NOT EXPECT TREAT THIS AS A SPACE SIM!

    And get rid of the false advertisement, marketing that Bethesda sold you like "unprecedented freedom" to explore a thousand planets, that "We are putting you in the cockpit of your very own spaceship and telling you that you can do pretty much anything." (Actually just loading screens when we are traveling unless you gonna spend hours flying), that "Space flight should be EXCITING and dangerous, and you should feel like you're in COMPLETE CONTROL EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. " (Couple of loading screens per travel between planets shows that I am FULLY in control.) and that you could visit any area of a planet and so on. The game is a good game for sure, but Bethesda is at fault for marketing and overhyping it.

    I do agree it's frustrating with the way they marketed it and they should not have worded it that way. If you are a fellow lover of No Man's Sky, Elite Dangerous, or any other space sim games, you will be disappointed. Instead, treat this as a RPG set in Space faring/exploration era with limited open world capabilities (like a bigger Fallout 4 open world map being dissected and separated into different planets with a limited space for you to explore) and the core focus on individual rpg elements, dialogues and story.

    Starfield is a fun game when you slowly get into it no doubt, but being a Bethesda game, as with most of their games, there are bugs and glitches, not as much as previous fallout games, but definitely still there. My first 5 hours or so was bug free, but I started seeing NPCs spasming and clipping through the assets like walls/floors or floating up into unreachable heights once I got into the Constellation first main mission...Maybe that's how the human body works when you stay in space too long. Trust Bethesda on this, they studied it. So as a Bethesda game, forget other non-vanilla in game contents like modders created costumes, etc, you got to use performance/ optimization mods to optimize and make you game work much more smoothly, have better fps and look better.

    All in all, the game is fun if you are someone who love RPGs and the thing is with Bethesda games, they are selling a foundation, a 70-80% polished game for modders and for players to apply mods to on top of it. It's a 7/10 for the vanilla game by Bethesda, but you will use mods to make it into a 10/10 by modders hand.

    Very enjoyable game. Not perfect. The game has a lot of things to do and explore, and systems are rich enough they're enjoyable. People are being dramaqueens about this game because they're expecting Bethesda to be Bethesda and every other game ever made.

    This game has the polish of Skyrim and just as much content, in my opinion. The setting certainly isn't as fun, I enjoy the fantasy,

    I really wanted to like this game but when I think about playing I think about all the load screens and fast traveling. I just don't want to constantly be dealing with loading screens.

Los sellos de identidad de los juegos de Bethesda están presentes y muy bien llevados, incluso algunas mecánicas, algo defectuosas en sus pasados juegos, como los tiroteos han mejorado mucho. No obstante, otras novedades jugables, como la exploración por sectores separados, sus pantallas de carga para todo (aunque muy cortas), o todo lo que tiene que ver con las naves están en un nivel muy inferior, exceptuando su construcción y modificación que si me ha gustado.

    La historia principal te atrapa y te deja queriendo saber más, pero como cualquier otro juego de Bethesda, su historia sirve para aprender las mecánicas generales y servirte de guía por los diferentes lugares principales, donde terminarás encontrando otras tramas y sub-tramas y que en algunos casos por como te llegan (a veces aleatoriamente) y te apartan de la historia principal son tremendamente divertidas y uno de las razones principales que hacen los juegos de Bethesda tengan su sello especial dentro de los RPG.

    Gráficamente está muy bien, es su mejor obra en este sentido. La IA es muy mejorable y presenta los mismos errores que todos sus juegos anteriores y que se arrastran por el uso del mismo motor, que aunque tenga un buen lavado de cara su núcleo es obsoleto y deficiente en algunos aspectos, sobre todo los que tengan que ver con los personajes. La no presencia de DLSS influye bastante en su rendimiento, una decisión cuestionable en PC pues las tarjetas Nvidia tiene la mayor parte del mercado, pero eso es uno de los cientos en el futuro que la comunidad de Mods incluye e irá incluyendo para que este juego termine siendo mejor y más grande que en su salida.

    No es un juego perfecto, es sobresaliente en lo que ya sabía hacía bien su desarrolladora, pero se siente obsoleto y deficiente en algunas novedades, es como un café para los que toman café, si te gustan las franquicias anteriores de Bethesda como Fallout o The Elder Scrolls te gustará bastante, sino te gustan esos juegos este juego no es para ti, porque tiene las mismas virtudes y defectos.

    The children who don't have a basic understanding of the English language baby raging cause mommy and daddy didn't love them as a kid is phenomenal. The game is fine. I know guys its difficult to understand what a woman's touch is like. But maybe one day you will find someone that isn't repulsed by the the axe body spray "cologne" and actually want to hug you.

    Games fine. Anyone whining

    The game is amazing!! However we need to mention the elephant in the room.... really bad optimization and Tod please don't tell me to upgrade when I already have a system better than an Xbox !! With mods however is playable, I think that what I enjoyed the most is the music and the exploration.

    Starfield look good in graphic designs, storylines and cool beginning experiences. But Starfield is a ok to me, I give it a score 7.

As for me, Fallout 76 is still my #1 best game in Bethesda games history and a masterpiece over Starfield. I played Fallout 76 for overall 4000 hours in 3 platforms together. How I play that long hours? Because Bethesda developed Fallout 76 the perfect game I ever play. Live service is even more fun to play with online players team together, game is PvE I like the most, non-stop events, scoreboards, amazing atomic shop items, affordable micro transactions than compare to ESO, CAMP are awesome, longer game life, fun-matic, never ending. The single player games such as Fallout 4, Skyrim, Starfield are good, but a little boring to me when there’s no players around and feeling lonely, after completing the storylines and that’s it, end of the game then play start all over again, that’ll be short life game. I played Fallout 4 for few hundred hours and that’s it compare to Fallout 76 for several thousand hours. I consider Fallout 76 is the best game in Bethesda games history and masterpiece. I know a lot of gamers are against Fallout 76 just because it’s a “live service” and “about money” but to me Fallout 76 is the best game I ever play. Expand

    Apart from a few bugs and crashes, this is Bethesda’s most polished game to date. Main story is fun and New Game+ has an interesting concept!

    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.
