    Excellent game. If you enjoy Fallout and other Bathesda games you will love it. It's by far my favorite game of all time.

    The best game I've played in awhile! What I like the most if the freedom the game offers, you can play however it suits you most, crafting, exploring, building, taking your time to navigate or fast travel

    Starfield is a masterpiece. I traded in my PlayStation 5 because I was tired of walking simulators, don't get me wrong I love a good walking sim and am not ashamed of it. Starfield just does what other games on my old platform don't, it gives you pure freedom of exploration.

    Great classic Bethesda fun. Does not come without its downsides, which many people have already expressed. I did not have ridiculous expectations and if you don't either you are likely to enjoy the game.

    Very good game has occasional slowdown but its not bad enough to say it is the faces could be better looking but I guess that's the Bethesda style exploration is great the game taken me awhile to understand and it kind of reminds me of Starwars KOTOR 2 overall a very awesome game I think it can grow on everyone that trys this out

    The game is just good, nothing revolutionary. Yes, it has some new mechanics like flying into space, but the realization of space travel and space battles leaves much to be desired.

Optimization as I think could be better, graphics sometimes gives beautiful landscapes, but not so much to squeeze out of the top graphics cards all the power. From the good except that more or less pleasant shooting and some quests are not bad, well and in the end the game is monumental, I think in the game you can spend a lot of time.… Expand

    In my opinion they should have focused on aiming higher than Skyrim/Fallout 4 instead of trying to emulate those experiences exactly. The whole thing is a little too familiar and definitely a letdown when you consider the years and years of hype. If anything this game feels old fashioned in 2023.

    If you're okay playing a new version of Skyrim or Fallout then this is exactly that! Definitely big and expansive just like those games were. You can put a lot of hours into Starfield if you don't get bored and bounce off first.

    Don't buy a Series X just for this! If you already have GamePass then of course you've already downloaded it and played it for yourself.

    -História interessante e divertida (pelo que joguei até agora)
    -MUITAS side quests diferenciadas padrão bethesda
    -Possibilidade de recrutar vários NPCs pra tripulação

    CONTRAS:
    -Performance ruim no geral (meu pc n é dos melhores mas roda qlq jogo a 60fps fixo, menos esse)
    -Não poder viajar de planeta a planeta sem cutscene
    -IA padrão bethesda
    -Expressões faciais
    -Excesso de loading

    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.

Here you can spend hours building your ship, hours crafting and arranging furniture in your home, hours mining resources and exploring planets, trading, transporting contraband, fighting on ships, stealing things, hiring companions, improving guns and spacesuits, cooking, helping random passersby, play your role and receive dissatisfaction or approval from others, complete quests in different ways. You can do literally anything!
    I started the game late in the evening and it didn’t let me go until the morning, you really feel the atmosphere of space here, and the side quests are like small stories inside this world. After the first story quest, I came across some completely random additional quest and this line of quests told me the whole story of the conspiracy and took me 6-8 hours to complete it, and then it became more and more interesting to play. It was really fun, I don't understand why some people think the game is boring. It's definitely not a game for everyone, but it's a good, worthwhile game in the classic Bethesda style.
    The game had every chance to become a hit and personally my favorite for many years, if not for one thing, the optimization here is truly terrible. The picture is nice and beautiful, but I would like to have 1080p 60 fps on my RTX 4060, and not ~30-45 :D I could only start playing comfortably at 60-80 frames with a DLSS mod. It’s very sad that the optimization was taken care of by enthusiasts and not by Bethesda.    … Expand

    The stories you experiencd with the main Quest, faction quests and side quests. But the game is not perfect it had some cracks in its armor.
    It throws alot at you right away and dosent really explain much in the beginning and it can be intimidating therefore making the opening hours a little slow but you will have your "everything clicks" moment if you continue down the main Quest for a little while.
    the space map can take a little while to get used to, random NPCs look ugly the space travel might not be what some expect.
    Space travel is more mass effect then it is
    no man's sky
    But still the universe bethesda has built is an immersive one, it is bethesdas most polished game to date and honestly possibly their best game to date.

    This is the only game to give me the “Skyrim-feel” since Skyrim. Bethesda knocked it out the park with this one. If you go into it expecting a seemless space sim, then you won’t like it, because that’s not what it is.

The stories that are being told are simple amazing and the best work bethesda has done. Everytime i stop i want to play more and get back in. there is so much to do and the game is huge. For every quest you complete you get 4 more in return. also the game has a lot of hearth and it can be very cozy and immersive. And the attention to detail is insane. You can see they hired the dude from the skyrim clutter mod because every item you can pick up looks amazing. I am currently collecting monster plushies and coffee mugs. But...

    It does struggle on my pc. With a 3700x and a 2080TI i thought i could handle it. I was wrong. i can barely get 60fps on 1440p on high and ultra with fsr in outside zones. Still even at 30 fps its playable and you dont really notice it. the graphics do look good but i feel not that good for bringing my 2080ti to its knees already. The other gripe i have is the exploration and space travel. I expected more of a space sim. But it is really a bethesda rpg. think about skyrim or fallout in space. Once i accepted that the exploration became fun again. All the other critisim like facial expressions and all the other things you hear really dont bother me.

    Bethesda definitely added a lot on top of their previous product, as they do each time.    30 hours in, I'm still enjoying the stories, factions and the world Bethesda has set us in.

    Bethesda definitely added a lot on top of their previous product, as they do each time. Character models, quests and the open world interaction are a lot more in depth than each previous title made, the vastness of randomly generated worlds really puts things in perspective and I can't imagine the mods that will come.

    Things that I liked:
    - Constellation: I loved the concept of a diverse group of people secluded from society, set to explore the deepest and farthest points in the systems. Feels like the best fit for the story.
    - Ship building: I've already spent hours trying out combinations, I'm sure mods will take this to the ROOF.
    - World depth, factions: I want to say that the world of Starfield feels a lot more immersive and in-depth than the previous games made by BGS. Factions have very characteristic and are fun to delve into.

    What I took out points for is:
    - Lack of orbital cruise: there could really be some sort of cinematic loading screens while exiting or entering a planet's orbit, with ability to fly in it with our ship.
    - Lack of player control during landing and take-off: explains itself, wish we could manually land and take-off from anywhere we wanted.
    - Tedious walking: I get that distance and travel should be a thing in space to make it feel like it's space but we seriously don't need it on foot. Wish there were ground vehicles like offroad bikes or something.
    - Tedious navigation: I get that the user could not use fast travel but with the lack of a detailed flight model, the only interaction/gameplay in space is just fast traveling into a new system for a ship scan for 10 seconds before opening the map to select a place to land to. Why are the ships then? Wish we were forced to at least sit through the jumps for 10-15 seconds to give a sense of distance and travel.

    There's tons of potential for plenty of mods when the Creation Kit will be available, I'm looking forward to them. It's definitely a bigger "level-up" from Fallout 4 than what Fallout 4 was after Skyrim but unrealistic expectations led to this hate wagon on here. It's definitely well above average of a game but what I criticized above definitely doesn't put this title in the GOTY category for me.

    Although I have full faith in the modding community so, we'll see. I'll be having fun playing until then.    … Expand

I assume alot of the people who are hating are just shills of some sort, as always. The game is a beautiful piece of art from all angles and its rocks the bethesda rpg style so well, just like it's Brothers skyrim and Oblivion. People do say its like Fallout 4 or Oblivion in space and yes it is that!. It's that and some more, so if you like these style of games with deep exploration and gameplay, this should be a perfect fit for you. If you like Jrpgs or games like baldurs gate, that involve more strategy and thinking, this probably won't be that. I personally think this is one of, if not the best space action and rpg games ever made and since I'm a Sci fi geek who love spaces and adventure, along with all the extra feats of quality and detail the game has given me, I call this a hole in one.

It fails in places very important to some and insignificant to others.

    The engine which powers Bethesda games provides many technical limitations, but it is also the source of Bethesda's immense ability to create living persistent worlds. Your enjoyment of Starfield is reliant on which you prioritize.

    Unfortunately, those technical limitations, cracks in the experience, which in past titles were so easily airbrushed away, are now as wide and deep as canyons. They are glaring indictments of Bethesda's inability to move engines. Bethesda has so much time and effort invested in their jalopy of an engine it would mean a disastrous loss of productivity to switch at this point.

    That being said, the design choices that hurt the most seem informed by technical limitation. I do not understand for the life of me why in-menu fast-travel is so prominent in a game centered around space ships. I understand the need to remove the void of travel to provide a tighter narrative experience, but space sims have had warp drives since the 80s, Starfield has warp (grav) drives. That, IS your fast travel system. Menu travel makes a universe of 100s of planets feel as small as Skyrim.

    Bethesda's RPGs have historically had terrible menus so it stands to reason that the their games feel the best when you are out of them for long stretches. Unfortunately, Starfield is their most menu heavy game to date. Half the game is played in menus. I understand that releasing on consoles creates limitations, such as requiring annoying lists of equipment, but why, when playing on a keyboard, are the keys that have similar functions different depending on what I'm doing? Its an unintuitive and frustrating mess.

    Starfield excels at many things. The scope of the content is massive. Its easy to b-line it through the main storyline and treat the other quests as "side-quests", but they are anything but. These are fully voice acted narratives that take you around the galaxy and feel like Starfield launched with built in DLC. The writing is rough in areas, but never outwrite bad and the characters are complex and deep.

    Ship building is well implemented, not being too restrictive or complex, while still feeling like there is some engineering complexity to conquer. It would have been great if exotic ship part blueprints were found as loot or just more parts in general, but the feature is a highlight, regardless.

    Combat is, what you would expect from an RPG shooter. Bullet sponge slogs or insignificant short scuffles. Rarely can they find the sweet spot. The savior here is the weapon design, which are both pleasing and interesting. The AI does an admirable job while in combat, but falls back on decades old design of AI "Amnesia". Stay hidden for long enough, and they will go about their day, like you didn't just murder half of them 30 seconds ago.

    In many ways Bethesda RPGs are platforms on which to build your own experience; playing how you want, modding how you please, changing what you don't like, and adding more of that which you do. The promise of community improvements and content goes a long way with some, and means little to others.

    Its easy to fault Starfield. The Bethesda formula and trademark Bethesda jank are getting stale. The limitation of the technology are on full display. The content is deep in odd places and shallow where it often counts the most. Starfield is the best Bethesda RPG since Morrowind, but games are in a different place. Bethesda's inability to grow in the right direction, means Starfield falls short of reaching the stars.    … 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.
