    O jogo é muito bom! Quem curte o estilo vai gostar independente da performance. Acredito que com atualizações, a taxa de quadros melhore.
    Tenham em mente que notinha de usuário não vale nada. É só abrir o perfil de 10 aleatórios que deram nota zero e ver o histórico...de duas, uma: se não for conta nova criada só pra dar nota zero em Starfield, é conta que da 10 em todos jogos da Sony e 0

    El mejor juego de ese 2023 muy probable Goty. Bethesda se ha lucido trayéndonos un juego que atrapa de principio a fin. Con físicas realistas. Los planetas tienen rotación en sus sistemas solares. El gameplay perfecto. Personajes e historia de 10.

    Best game of 2023 futur GOTY. Starfield sets the standard for other games to follow. Extremely polished release (casi no bugs), runs flawlessly. It's everything I wanted it to be and more. I like this game !

    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.

    It makes me very sad to read these reviews from a lot of people who give such low ratings for nothing, ok you didn't like the game but it doesn't deserve a 0, a 3 or a 5. For me it's a good old fashioned game, they are no longer seen like this, now they are all the same to try to please the average user, instead Starfield manages to be faithful to itself and its predecessors.

Do you want to spend more time on the ship with more detailed characters? You have mass effect. Want to explore more space? you have No Man's Sky. Starfield is a different game, just compare things otherwise we would have a copy of a copy of a copy. Play it and have fun. Expand

    Of course, it is not a masterpiece, but quite well creates the illusion of vast space. There are many interesting mechanics, and the quests are pretty good. I lost myself in New Atlantis for hours, and what I will follow is quite exciting.
    I love Bethesda games, and I love sci-fi setting so for me, this is the must-have game that I will be playing for years.

    An sich kann man es gut spielen. Habe um ehrlich zu sein die Story bis jetzt (40Stunden) nicht wirklich gespielt sonder mich auf neben Missionen verlassen. Waffen fühlen sich sehr gut an beim schießen und an sich ist das Game auch recht schick :). Was mich stört ist das Leveln und das man für alles irgendwas erlernen muss.

Du willst einen Außenposten bauen auf einen Moon der sehr kalt ist… Level bitte Außenposten (oder wie die Fähigkeit heißt). Das ist etwas nervig weil man schon von Anfang an wissen muss in was man seine Level rein steckt. Und ich habe nicht wirklich die Lust mir von denn ganzen Fähigkeiten an zu sehen was ich mit denn auf Level 4 machen kann. Ich hoffe auch das vielleicht mehr Variation bei Waffen und Ausstattung rein kommt, da ich noch nie einen Waffe oder etwas anders in der Art kaufen musste. Alles was man kaufen kann ist schlechter als das was man selbst findet, was mich traurig macht da ich gern mehr handeln würde wie in Skyrim. Aber das Spiel steht ja noch am Anfang von seinen Leben also mal sehen wohin die Reise geht :) Expand

    What an awesome game! I'm like almost 48 hours in at this stage and WHAT A GAME!!! I had some game breaking bugs here and there but for a game of this scale I don't mind it. Sure some quality of life changes would make the game even better. But if you'll excuse me I got a galaxy I got to explore!!

For me, the only problem that can change my opinion is the artificial intelligence of the game, which is good enough. No, but it is possible that the problem will be solved in the future Expand

    Truly one of the best games I’ve ever played. It’s been out for a few days and I already have 25 hours on it. It’s the kind of game where you look at the clock and realize you’ve played 4 hours when you planned on 1. It’s so in depth, so much lore and so much to learn. Gunplay is a blast, rpg mechanics are amazing and it’s truly BGS best game ever, I genuinely believe that.

    The Best Space Roleplay game ever. Do not care about the comments of PS users who cannot play the game and the hater audience because it is not a space simulation game.

    Played my first 10 hours and even though it's not the revolution one might have hoped for, it's a pretty good game. The graphics aren't completey "never seen before", but still the game is beautiful. I love the cities, each is unique and has it's own flair. It really feels like a modern Skyrim in space, and that's not a bad thing.

    Starfield es un gran juego con infinidad de cosas a tu disposición para hacer, tiene un montón de historias, tramas y misiones con multitud de formas de abordarlas cada cual con sus debidas consecuencias, puedes construir y/o modificas bases y naves prácticamente a tu gusto.

Es un RPG enorme con unos pequeños toques de shooter que recomiendo encarecidamente pero dista mucho de ser un juego perfecto, ya que, aunque los escenarios y entornos están muy bien, Los NPCs y las animaciones no tienen la calidad de diseño de un juego del 2023. En los planetas solo hay unos cuantos sitios prediseñados y el resto son escenarios generados aleatoriamente por lo que te da igual donde aterrizar, no puedes decir aquí parece que hay una montaña voy aterrizar, porque cuando aterrizas todo lo que se genera es aleatorio por lo que la montaña no va estar, lo único que cambia es la cantidad de recursos y el tipo según aterrices en un lado o en otro, no se puede explorar el mar (recordemos que la mayor cantidad de fauna y los mayores accidentes geográficos de la tierra esta en el mar). Tiene muchos bugs pero casi todos relacionados con los NPCs y no llegan a romper el juego. La nave es puramente anecdótica ya que no hay ninguna misión en la que tengas que pilotar por algún sitio, solo sirve para guardar tus recursos, tener las mesas de trabajo a mano y como transición entre las doscientas pantallas de carga que hay que usar para explorar el universo.

    I played this game for about 51 hours since early access and I don‘t regret it. The game is totally worth it and let my dreams of space exploration come true.

    ☑️ Beautiful
    ☐ Good
    ☐ Decent
    ☐ Bad
    ☐ Don‘t look too long at it
    ☐ MS-DOS

    The game is looking really really beautiful. The planets, the fauna, everything. U will enjoy some nice views and spend hell of a time in the photo mode.

    ---{Gameplay}---
    ☑ Very good
    ☐ Good
    ☐ It‘s just gameplay
    ☐ Mehh
    ☐ Watch paint dry instead
    ☐ Just don't

    The gameplay is clean and smooth. Nice Weapons and nice ways to succeed in missions. Ship movement is also nice and the best thing for me is the ship builder and the base building. U can nearly do whatever you want.

    ☑ Eargasm
    ☐ Very good
    ☐ Good
    ☐ Not too bad

    ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer

    U obviously need a fast pc to see it in the nicest way but I can just say. If u are low on money and still wanna play, a xbox series s / x works totally fine. And for me with an Ryzen 9, RTX 2070s, 32 GB DDR4 it runs also smoothly. ---{Difficulity}---

    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.
