It makes me sad that a game of this level is being negatively bombed by Playstation fan boys, that's not fair, just because the game didn't come out for Ps5.

    Starfield is a great game. It has such a bleakness characteristic, but let me explain. You are in space, exploring all these planets, scanning fauna and flora, but no other intelligent life form(such as humans of course), only humans. It has an Ad Astra feel to it, where humans made it into space, had an outpost on Mars, and travelled long way to discover that there are no aliens. IStarfield is a great game.

It has an Ad Astra feel to it, where humans made it into space, had an outpost on Mars, and travelled long way to discover that there are no aliens. I played 17 hours so far but I haven't even started the main mission yet because I get side tracked by side mission from factions and exploring random planets to find a suitable outpost place. Starfield is what players make of it, so get as deep as you like. Forget about the 30 FPS for a change, games for 30 FPS before and people were not bothered. I personally don't care about the frame rate as long as it is stable, and I can't wait to find out more about terramorfs and how did they first appear! Good luck to all, see you in space.… Expand

Las misiones secundarias muy buenas Lo malo los npc mejorados, pero necesita un cambio de motor. Con las horas te haces con el juego y pasan a un segundo apartado, la IA recomiendo ponerla en dificultad máxima, puedes explorar todo, pero realmente no como esperaba, sí que puedes coger la nave e ir a otro planeta, pero puedes tardar horas de ahí que esté el viaje rápido, por lo demás muy bien el juego las batallas espaciales están bien, obviando las pantallas de carga que molestan, pero no rompe la experiencia hay bugs, pero nada que ver con otros títulos de bethesda conclusión final el mejor juego que he jugado desde skyrim.… Expand

    -Best storytelling of any Bethesda game to date by a pretty big margin. The faction storylines are all fantastic from what I have played of them so far, companions are far more fleshed out than past Bethesda games, particularly the Sam relationship and romance (which involves his daughter and some drama involving his ex/mother of his daughter)

    -Improved gunplay over past Bethesda games like Fallout 4

    -Excellent space combat, very tactical with the power level management and subsystem targeting

    -Huge amount of content, at 50 hours in I have barely touched the main storyline or faction storylines because there are so many sidequests to do (several in every named settlement pretty much), my first playthrough will easily hit 150 hours, maybe even 200+

    -Gorgeous landscapes and skyboxes on many planets/moons

    -Lots of options to build out you character due to how many skills and traits and backgrounds there are, as well as an improved character creator

    -This is Bethesda's most polished game on launch, at 50 hours I have only encountered a handful of bugs

    The Not So Good
    -Leveling feels too slow, as most quests reward a paltry 100-200 XP (with levels starting at 1000 XP or so and scaling upwards with more XP required each level, 479,000 XP needed to get the achievement for reaching level 100.

    -No ability to respec your skills, which is a shame

    -Creation Engine 2.0 still has alot of the jankiness of the original version of the Engine, with things like occasional 0 fps hitches, lock-ups during saving or time advances, companion pathing issues, dead faces and stilted walking animations on random NPC's you pass on the street, lackluster facial animations during conversations, and plasticky looking characters due to a lack of subsurface scattering on skin.    … Expand

O jogo Starfield teve como inspiração os jogos antigos de RPG Espacial dos PCs de 1980, que faziam muito sucesso nos computadores da época. Todd cresceu jogando estes jogos e sonhou um dia criar o seu próprio jogo de RPG Espacial. Starfield é um RPG clássico com o melhor dos mundos, um jogo que acumulou todo o aprendizado da Bethesda com seus jogos anteriores, maximizando quase tudo que foi visto em seus jogos anteriores. Starfield é um RPG puro, com elementos dos antigos jogos de exploração espacial de 1980. O jogo só peca em duas coisas: 1° - em não ter colocado o tutorial de maneira orgânica dentro da gameplay do jogo, fazendo com que muitas pessoas se sintam perdidas no que fazer e como fazer. 2°- em não dar densidade e importância aos planetas. os planetas tem pouca coisa para fazer, se tem no máximo uma ou duas cidades grandes e toda a importância daquele planeta se concentra dentro dessas cidades, isso se o planeta tiver cidades, e quando o jogador sai das cidades e anda pelo planeta em busca de algo novo, ele não encontra muito o que fazer, fazendo com que o jogador tenha que ficar viajando constantemente de planeta em planeta para buscar o que fazer, algo que não ocorreria se o espaço útil dos planetas fossem mais bem aproveitados com outros lugares interessantes para explorar, como era em Fallout e Elder Scrolls, dando a sensação de exploração do planeta com recompensa por explorar, então o jogador passaria mais tempo dentro de um único planeta, o explorando para abrir o mapa, do que viajando. uma das coisas que fariam os planetas serem mais interessante de se explorar também seria os eventos climaticos dinamicos, como um furacão ou uma tempestade de areia que pode ser mortal, o que daria uma utilidade bem maior a criação de abrigos nesses planetas. por fim, independente dessas duas criticas, o jogo é sim 10/10 porque entrega tudo que disseram, é um clássico RPG da Bethesda, que é maravilhoso para os amantes de Si-Fi e RPG massivo.… Expand

    The result is what’s easily Bethesda’s most accomplished title. While nothing Starfield does is truly revolutionary to the genre, what it does do it does so well, and at such a jaw-dropping scale, that after we’d started playing we thought about it every morning, every night, and then it even invaded our dreams.

While nothing Starfield does is truly revolutionary to the genre, what it does do it does so well, and at such a jaw-dropping scale, that after we’d started playing we thought about it every morning, every night, and then it even invaded our dreams.

    You begin Starfield as a miner on a remote planet working for a faceless corporation. You’re tasked with unearthing a strange artifact that’s been found on the planet. After touching the item, you experience a strange sensation, like being one with the cosmos. Following this, you’re approached by Constellation, a group that’s dedicated to exploring the wider galaxy and discovering the secrets of these artifactsfocused a lot on my social skills because, much like Fallout before it, Starfield isn’t the most adept shooter. It may look like one, with a huge range of weapons to collect and the ability to play from a first-person perspective, but this is not Destiny. Aiming feels wonky, and oftentimes, shots that seem to hit an enemy point blank will fail to register. It’d be nice if Starfield had the equivalent of the VATS system from Fallout, giving it pseudo-turn-based combat, but instead, it’s just a passable shooter attached to a very ambitious RPG. That might be the reason I spent so many skill points on my persuasion abilities.

    Conversation remains a big part of the experience. You spend a lot of time talking, with an up-close view of whoever you’re conversing with. You’ll need to chat with companion characters to get closer to them (while also making sure you don’t do upsetting things, like, uh, murder people in front of them) and others to garner information or get yourself out of trouble. Considering the sheer amount of dialogue, all of which is voiced, it’s impressive just how consistently well-written and acted Starfield is. There are some awkward moments when there are more than two people in a conversation — sometimes a character might not be facing you when speaking, and the cuts between dialogue can feel unnatural — but otherwise, it’s all very convincing, which is good since you’ll be spending a lot of time doing it.

    So, while the shooting While the tone and scale of Starfield differ from past Bethesda games, the core gameplay is very similar. It’s an RPG crossed with a shooter, where you can build out a character using a variety of traits and skills. Often, this can impact how you approach missions; sometimes, you can talk your way into getting what you want, and other times, you’ll need to fight.When Starfield's visuals deliver, oh boy, they really deliver. Global illumination cleverly washes the game in evocative tones that bring alien valleys to life in a way that previous iterations made in the Creation Engine simply could not. Absurd draw distances can make a straightforward mountain climb incredibly rewarding and meditative, flanked by the majestic and hopeful    … Expand

    Starting off I thought it was just a 7-8.

    After playing more, the game opened up into something special. The worlds, strike that, the whole galaxy is full of surprises and small things that turn a good game into masterful game that can be played for a long time. The random encounters with insurance salesmen, the Breaking bad and Batman references (including a kinda fake bat cave) Halo    Starting off I thought it was just a 7-8.

    Some attractions might have been not what you expected, or lived up to, some did.

Go anywhere, do almost anything, take on all kinds of missions/stories. The main story is engaging enough and the characters are deep enough to be interesting and worth exploring their backstories (if you're into that kind of progression in these games). Perhaps the most fun things for me are the combat and the ship-building & outpost-building - I don't know why, but I dig those aspects of this game more than previous Bethesda games. Usually, the shooting mechanics are pretty janky but this game finally offers a more streamlined and somewhat smooth combat experience. It's not something as smooth/fluid as a competitive shooter like COD or Apex but it's a step up from the typical Bethesda game.

    At first, I didn't know if I was going to get into Starfield and put any time into it. Now I'm about 20+ hours in and have no plans to slow down. I think I've put more time into other missions than the main mission. It's great to run into complex engagements that have some ripple effects downstream. I know, Fallout had some of these same cornerstones but this just seems to be much stronger overall.

    My only gripes are that on the Series X you only 30 FPS. It's not a big deal and I understand that Starfield is THAT BIG and it's tough to render everything and get above 30 FPS even with a console as powerful as the SX but I still wish it could be that much smoother and locked at 60 FPS. I hope there's a way to unlock that down the line - unlikely, but it would be cool if they could. The second gripe is that you can't really travel from one planet to the next or enter a planet atmosphere without fast traveling. I was hoping that, like No Man's Sky, you'd be able to experience that entry to a planet and then use the landing automation or something. Again, not a dealbreaker just a missed opportunity. I think people would have enjoyed taking their ships into atmosphere and guiding themselves toward a landing pad.

    It's a great game - one that validates my ownership of Game Pass and allows me to actually enjoy what I pay on a 6-month cadence because I'm finally getting something that makes me want to sit down for hours and play.    … Expand

There are side quest you can do for them, but you will never really feel sympathy for them. Developing relationships doesn't feel organic. Partially due to the not so great facial animation, partially due to some choices the devs made. I had a companion suddenly wanting to get married, wow, take it easy. Stopped using that companion. So far, no noteworthy bugs except two crashes. Quite remarkable considering the scope of the game. Anyway, I can recommend this… Expand

It's not a space sim, it's an RPG, and a dang good one at that. The perks you choose matter and open up opportunities, there are multiple ways to complete quests, and an incredible amount of character customization and roleplay potential. For those of us who enjoy role-playing our games, very few studios make the sort of games that scratch that "itch." The outer worlds came close, but was too small in scope. Kingdom Come Deliverance was also amazing, but unfortunately you have a fixed character you have to play as. A lot of us prefer to make our own character, and for those of us that do, there's no better option than Bethesda. I'd love if another studio stepped up to the plate and tried to make the same kind of game, but they just don't and won't. So until that day comes, Bethesda makes the best experiences for us roleplay nerds.

    The only criticism i have against the game is with performance on PC. Fortunately I play on XBOX where the experience is well optimized, but I've heard it's not the same with PC players unfortunately. Performance aside, it's a 10/10 for me. Massive, deep, repayable, and will keep us RPG fans busy for years to come.    … Expand

    - Enemy NPC's are still lacking in terms of programming.
    - The game starts a little slow but given that it's a brand-new IP/universe, I'm fine with this.
    - There are more loading screens than there should be.

    Having said all of that, this game's setting captures you and there are plenty of possibilities gameplay-wise to keep you occupied for hours. Character creation has improved significantly, additions such as traits and backgrounds go a long way in making your character feel unique and grounded in the setting (my character had parents, a house with a mortgage, and a background as a space trucker in the UC, for example).

    The game is technically sound when compared to Bethesda's previous efforts, I only encountered three "bugs" in my forty-ish hours of gameplay. The writing has seen a notable step up in quality since Fallout 4. Dialogue options are expanded and the game's persuasion mini-game is well done, I wish other RPG's had a similar system. I also greatly appreciate Starfield's new and improved lockpicking mini-game. Gunplay in this game is also a considerable step up when compared to their previous titles, though the melee combat seems a bit drab in contrast. Starfield also features a solid weapon customization system and an even better ship customization system. You truly get to be who you want to be in this game's universe.

    The game's scope is impressive, even if the end result has more loading screens than you'd like. The random encounters both in space and on land are often quite intriguing. Some were complaining about the planetary boundaries on the worlds after you land, but even though I've scanned and surveyed dozens of planets and moons, I've never bumped into these barriers (it's a non issue, in other words). The environments are varied, the fluctuations in gravity and weather make for fun gameplay, and the game's settlement building system can turn any of these worlds into your own homebase.

    The sidequests are as eclectic and wacky as ever, the game's companions and crew members are great, and Starfield's soundtrack and world design holds up to the rest of Bethesda's back catalogue. It may not be the future of gaming, but we don't live in the future, and I personally believe that Starfield's positives far outweigh its negatives. It is a good Bethesda game, and that statement alone puts it on the same level as games like Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3, and Fallout 4. If you enjoyed any of those games and are down for a sci-fi adventure, you will have a blast in Starfield. It's every bit as good as any of their previous titles. I'd personally give it an 8.5 out of 10, but I'm rounding up instead of down since it seems there's a lot of bad-faith review bombing going on here.    … Expand

Write them emails, flood their mail inbox endlessly, go protest in front of their office, but do not come to put 0 here. You are not happy when xbox fanboy put 0 to God of War, The last of us etc So please do not act like them.

    Let’s start with the negative. The biggest flaw in the game is not a flaw of the game in itself. It’s more the fact that the game is exclusive to Microsoft. Let me explain . The xbox controller is a real filth. It is too small, the back buttons ( the equivalent of r2 and l2 on the dualsense ) are too close. My two index fingers almost touch themselves. They are also too much forward and I have to bend my hand up a little to weigh at the bottom of the buttons to have the maximum sensations. The handles on both sides of the controller where you hold the controller are much too short. I feel like I hold a mini board in my hand rather than a controller. As a result, it’s extremely uncomfortable and destroys a lot of the fun. The other big problem is the total lack of feedback. The vibrations are okay for space combat but for ground combat, it’s awful. There is so little feedback that when I shoot with a gun, I feel like I am pressing down into the vacuum. Now, the lack of adaptive triggers makes this problem much worse. I thought it was just haptic feedback and adaptive trigger that made the ps5 controller incomparably superior. Finally it’s not just that it’s the entire design. So it makes the pleasure and the satisfaction of the fight much reduced and it’s a very big problem for me. It still not as bad as a mouse keyboard.

    The other big problem is the 30 fps. Although it is more stable than other games ( when you put them in quality mode ) since it is optimized for 30, I miss the 60. Even if you had to release it six months later or invest a little more. It would have been worth it.

    Now the positive

    Graphics:

    If we compare it to other games of its time, Starfield is their most beautiful game. We know that Bethesda never makes the most beautiful graphics but this one is the most up to date compared to other AAA. In some places, like rocks textures or robots, it feel next gen graphics. In other places it is more blurry and facial expressions are a bit dated but a gigantic improvement compared to fallout 4 and 76.

    Interaction with NPCs

    As usual, Bethesda always pushes the boundaries on this side. We can start discussions with hundreds of NPCs. Ask them questions, inform ourselves, make fun of them, lie to them, threaten them, persuade them etc. They react accordingly and several NPCs will evolve their speech the more we advance in the plot. It’s nice to listen to what they in details. You can spend a whole night just talking loll Our companions will react to our decisions but also to some of our actions. Concerning the NPCs that cannot be engaged in a deep conversation, those who pass here and there the "appearing". Even they will have more to say than what we see in rpg's. Usually in games, passers-by will have 2 or 3 lines, hello how you feel etc But here I met severals who had 10 different lines.

    Rpg:

    It’s nice to be able to customize the smallest details of your character’s face even if I haven’t seen any progress on this side. Choosing them a back round with a unique advantage is also a plus. We can modify our weapons in very details and the skill tree is extremely well made with a lot of skills divided into 5 categories and each skill has many levels. More than enough to find your favorite play style and upgrading it. We are free to engage in several companies and work for them, invest our money and build our own path etc

    Exploration

    This is again ahead of it's time. You can enter all the buildings, explore hundreds of planet, pick up almost everything you find, sell, buy, build etc. No mans sky has more planets but almost 0 combat and interactions. Those 2 aspects are extremely limited in NMS.

    Bethesda pushes the boundaries again with a world of richness and depth. Although the feeling of the fights, the almost total absence of gore are not on point, it remains much better than their previous game. Blood effects are less pixelated, sounds effects and shooting mechanics have been greatly improved since their last games and bugs are less present for a launch version.

    I would have a lot more to say but I reached 5000 characters.    … Expand

    It's a big game, but starts way too slowly, and may never get interesting.

    It is true that you'll find a good number of barren wastelands with little to do other than extracting some resources and take off to more interesting places, but again it really depends on how you want to play. There's so much to do, so many systems and abilities to explore, missions to complete, spaceships to loot, and species to catalogue, that I honestly don't think there's anybody who thinks that exploring every square meter of this universe is the better way to enjoy Starfield.

    While it has weak spots and doesn’t push many boundaries, Starfield is still an excellent RPG experience. Bethesda has once again mastered the things it built its reputation on – world building, quest design, and deep customization. However, it’s found new things to excel at too, with exciting combat and a novel implementation of New Game Plus.
