    I have about 17h on the game and I loving every bit off it. Even tho I play a bit of everything I make sure this is the last game (since I won't get off till the sun's up). Everyone should give it a try, it's really is Skyrim in space.

    If you like RPG games, exploration and space environment this game is for you. The main quest is well made even if it's really a small part of the game, there are multiples side quests that are well scripted as well and that are going to keep you in front of the monitor for dozens of hours.

The main quest is well made even if it's really a small part of the game, there are multiples side quests that are well scripted as well and that are going to keep you in front of the monitor for dozens of hours. The exploration is good even if there are probably too many loading screens, but it's a compromise we can accept for such a big map. The cities are big and full of people you can interact with that will give you informations or side quests. The thousands planet have been made to make the starfield universe feel realistic and like in reality most of them are empty, you will just land on them, have a look around and take same minerals or stuff that you need. It would have been impossible to create 1000 planets all full of life, cities or stuff to do, and it would have been also unrealistic. The poor AI of the enemies is one of the main problems of the game, even tho it doesn't affect it so much. The graphic is really good looking except for the faces that are static and lack of details. In this game you can choose who you want to be: you want to be a good astronaut? you absolutely can. You want to be a pirate? you can do it as well (even if your companions will not be so happy of your choice). If you are looking for a game like NMS, a game where you jump infinite times from a planet to another one, exploring with freedom planets full of life but without a real meaning, than this game is not for you. It's not an exploration game (and nobody said it would have been), it's much more: a real Bethesda RPG, with thousands of things to do, and with the exploration being the surrounding, not the main aspect of the game.… Expand

    Bethesda Game Studios have made another excellent “open world” RPG that’s feels like a true spiritual successor to Skyrim and Fallout 4. Space travel and combat could have been expanded a bit more to feel more integral to the rest of the game however overall it is an amazing RPG that gives a true feeling of discovery and exploration in space

    Let me start by saying that I adore almost everything about this game. Once I saw a lot of the reviews, especially the 7/10 from IGN...I was truly disappointed, confused, worried. I felt like all the wait, hype, and research for this game were for nothing. I mean I bought an Xbox specifically for this game, as my laptop would've never been able to run it.

I mean I bought an Xbox specifically for this game, as my laptop would've never been able to run it. So with that being said, when I sat down to play Starfield for the first time I was hooked. Hours went by and a question started spinning in my head. "Am I playing a completely different game from the reviewers". There are a few things I wish they would have done differently, like - having a map, at least in the major cities/ buildings/ships, and so on. Fewer planets, which would have been more intricate and filled with environmental storytelling would have been better in my eyes..and some other minor things like fewer loading screens. But it doesn't seem fair to complain and to be nit-picky as if we were owed something. The game is one of the best games of all time and it's free on "Game Pass", which is mind-blowing. Bethesda will keep doing what Bethesda does, and nobody in my eyes, can do what Bethesda does. Their games are the deepest games I've played and I appreciate them for that. I can talk for hours about all the great systems in Starfield, or about how great the characters are voiced, or how the music is almost as good as in Skyrim. I can't stress enough how important it is to be able to immerse yourself in this game. Give this game a chance! Don't listen to the negative reviews, or better yet, listen to them, go in with low expectations, like I did, and prepare to be amazed.… Expand

    Starfield has finally arrived, but I confess I wasn't that excited about it. The kid who had hours to spend on a great Bethesda title no longer exists, so I figured it probably wasn't a title for today's me.

    I started to see some reviews of the game and many commented on the complexity of the game and the freedom to play the way you choose.

    I started to see some reviews of the game and many commented on the complexity of the game and the freedom to play the way you choose. These factors, which were often indicated as something negative, hit me right in the nostalgia of playing Skyrim without knowing English and discovering the game's mechanics, story and secrets.

    On September 5th, the title arrived on Game Pass. After wasting a few hours in the character editor (as I always do) I started playing and after a few simple combat tutorials and an introduction to the story, I began to understand what the Starfield universe was all about and how the gameplay worked. Everything I'd come to expect from Bethesda was there, for better or for worse, with the exception of the combat, which is now much more fluid than previous titles. The exploration factor is also present and frankly, I still can't understand the criticism on this point. The amount of loading is a little off the charts, but it didn't get in the way of my experience after about 20 hours of play and I'm really enjoying the title.

    The graphics aren't the best, the PT-BR dubbing is lacking and the AI is up to Bethesda's standard (if you know what I mean), but it's a worthwhile title!

    If you're a big fan of RPGs and the more down-to-earth space theme, looking for a big, immersive title with interesting missions (main and secondary), Starfield probably won't let you down!    … Expand

I'm a gamer who prefers fun single-player games to competitive multiplayer games and one who typically looks at bad reviews of products first, but I will urge you not to put very much stock in the bad reviews for Starfield. I'll let you know what the faults of the game are in my opinion first then the good. Keep in mind all the faults I mention are addressable with updates or mods. So pay no attention that claim the game is broken. It most certainly is not broken.
    Fault 1 by far is the lack of tutorials. There are some there, but I feel like there would be fewer bad reviews if the game had some more in-depth tutorials. There is a help menu in the start menu that helps a lot, but still you're probably going to need to youtube one or two things. And honestly do that before you play the game as I know there are many spoiler free videos that help a lot.
    Fault 2 is the unoptimized inventory system. It's just kind of clunky and too simple for such a complex game. There needs to be a few more sorting filters and maybe some kind of inventory search would make things easier.
    Fault 3 and probably the one that will be addressed as soon as possible by Bethesda since it is universally a fault literally everyone who plays Starfield are the city maps when you're in a city. Without spoiling anything there are very broad points of interest on static looking screen and that's it. It doesn't show where vendors are or things of that nature. For someone who is forgetful like me remembering where things or when I haven't been to that city in a while is quite frustrating. Again they are probably working on this.
    Now for the good.
    Pro 1 The game's combat system and mechanics are simple and fun. I thoroughly enjoy it. Anyone can pick it up and play it without a problem. A lot of the hate on this aspect is coming from competitive multiplayer gamers. This is a single-player Bethesda game not Call of Duty and people need to set their expectations accordingly.
    Pro 2 The story and quest are really fun and do a good job building that connection with the characters.
    Pro 3 The graphics and feel of the game are great and are the typical Bethesda art style. Think updated Fallout.
    Pro 4 The amount of different ways you can play the game are astonishing. I can understand some people puting this as a fault since it can be overwhelming, but if you like to play a game a certain way like as a villian/pirate or a hero you can do it all here. You can play mostly in space if you want or planet side. You can spend most of your time building a ship or outposts if that's what you like to do. You can also play like me and create multiple characters each with their own playstyle. It's literally up to you and the fact that the there are so many options is amazing.
    I hope this review helps someone decide to play the game and give it a fair shake as it deserves. It will be worth it.    … Expand

    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

    Great game, could use some patches and maybe some updates with exploration (vehicles, more interactions w Fauna, better flight mechanics)

    But overall amazing game, when the “Ultimate edition” comes out in a couple years with DLCs and patches it will easily be a 10/10.

    First and foremost, I do believe that there is a vast sandbox here to be able to roleplay and enjoy, I personally played a Cowboy Space ranger, Focusing on ship building and gun focus tree. The new skill tree mechanic works really well, allowing once again a platform to roleplay, if I base my character around jetpack and revolver like I did, my skills in use get better, its much more fleshed out skyrim/oblivion skill tree set where doing the action tied to the skill levels, that skill but on a much larger scale. The ship building is really cool, its fun to build you ship, though costly, at later game it becomes much more accessible. I just enjoyed building my ship, fast traveling to space and then looking out into space out port hole i placed into my design. however building ships can be junkie and takes a little time to get used to. Now some issues that i found in the game.

    First of all, I think the story is kind of boring until mid story, where it does start to pick up,
    Fast traveling but I have to say, this game has some of the best factions in any bethesda game period, not to mention the vast amount of quests and things to do. Recently I played through this one quest, where I was sneaking around a research facility with this monster thing chasing me and I had to use stealth, a lot of approached to different quests and a lot of ways to build out your character and roleplay. This isn't a traditional bethesda RPG in the sense of the world, The different planets you land on, host a plethora of hand made or in most cases procedurally generated chunks, which are quite large, but in some cases quite empty. Though, as someone who has been following Starfield up to release, it was made quite clear by Bethesda that, it would be the case and I feel like overall its not as big of an issue as people make it out to be in the grand scheme of things. However one mechanic i have been messing around with but just don't like is settlements. Likely they are 100% optional, the controls for building are clunky and not much ever gets explained, I been looking at guides to figure out things like Cargo links. Though, I will go back to the settlement mode as I really enjoyed it in Fallout 4.

    I ran Starfield on the Series S. I have to say I am generally satisfied with performance, I did encounter a few significant frame drops in some of the cities. But overall, Frames have been consistent. In terms of bugs, I haven't really experienced many bugs, Only one i can remember off the top of my head, was when the camera got stuck when going up a ladder. However I have noticed the game likes to crash from time to time, when loading in new areas, but these crashes are few and far in between.

    Overall in the 30+ hours I have been playing the game, I have enjoyed myself a lot. I feel that there is a lot of foundational work that was laid here for future bethesda games. I thinks its a game everyone should try out at least once, but does not constitute an immediate buy. if you have some money to pick up game pass and give it a try. It will be worth it. I will definitely go back to the game ever few years like I do with Skyrim and Metal Gear series.    … Expand

    The planets are nice to explore and can look really pretty. The factions and questlines are some of the best that Bethesda has ever created and really took that criticism from last games. The gunplay, ship combat, customization is all great and even tho it’s 30fps, it still feels smooth. The companions are well written, well voice acted and may be Bethesda’s best. They really took the RPG aspect criticism to heart and added lots of depth with skill checks, speech checks, choices, good character builds, backgrounds and traits. A huge improvement over Fallout 4 and Skyrim.

    In general, it’s a good RPG and a great game. The old Bethesda that we loved is back and clearly put effort so don’t listen to the review bombing or salty PS5 fanboys. Gave me lots of hope for ES6    … Expand

    9/10 in my opinion. I've been eagerly awaiting Starfield since it was first announced, and have been playing since it went live on Game Pass. It has been a long while since a game has sucked me in from the beginning, to the point that I lose track of time and have to set an alarm to keep from playing past the point of reason.

It has been a long while since a game has sucked me in from the beginning, to the point that I lose track of time and have to set an alarm to keep from playing past the point of reason. But Starfield is that game. An especial feature that I feel needs extra attention is that while my poor, well-loved Xbox One could never play this if it was installed, I can play on the cloud streaming service without any issues at all beyond the occasional pixelization and input lag.

    Pros:

    Immediately engrossing story and setting
    Fantastic and believable worldbuilding
    Interesting characters
    Ridiculously complex ship and outpost building mechanics
    Enjoyable ship combat
    Fun and vastly improved foot combat
    Addictive system and planetary exploration
    Truly impressive visuals even compressed and truncated for streaming and back-compatibility
    The game is almost exactly as described; virtually every feature highlighted by BGS in promotional is present and works as described, with very little over-promised or misportrayed.

    Cons:

    The map system needs refinement; local maps are not helpful
    The tutorial system needs expansion and rework; many of the most useful and immersive elements are not mentioned at all, many systems are not explained properly, nor are the tutorials particularly well-written or integrated well    … Expand

    i've been now playing since september 1st and haven't actually stoppen loving it. and it's one of the rare games that made my heart pumping like when you needed stealth to do multiple missions for the crimson fleet.

    and then the basic story i could play for a very long time, and then the combat on foot is really good, i would like to see a few adjustments in the ship flying ai like that they ram into you with 5 ships and then keep shooting wich is a bit frustrating but nothing to dock to much points from.

    odly with the romance there is a bit much left to the imagination by you when you sleep you don't get to actually lay down and sleep but also your companion wil wake up on the same side as you on a two person bed(so kinda like you just laying on top of like sarah and apperrantly have some "fun" let's put it like that).

    sadly as of now i haven't really seen any of the base building so i still need to look into that, but Oh My God the ship customisation is so amazing i hope there wil be a full out of save ship building brance so you can build ships fully custom on it's own through the main menu that can be added to saves to buy or to unlock through a mission wich you can redo over and over as a nice loop. note: you need to keep class in ming being a the lowest and c the highest wich you need the full ship flying perk unlocked to be allowed to fly all three, wich is kinda limiting.

    all in all i might not have touched on everything but the game is soooooooo big i really recomend going in and play it and not just take my word or other reviewers and especially reviewbomvers for it since about 6 million people are playing it and probably most haven't yet shared their honest opinions.

    Science fiction fans, you will be delighted!
    The few youthful flaws are quickly erased by the sum of the qualities. The game will only get better over time and, like Skyrim, I'll still be playing it ten years from now.
    Exploration of biomes, space combat, invasion of bases, construction of ships, crafting, very cool quest sequences, enemy AI are the main positive points of this title.    Science fiction fans, you will be delighted!

    Two negative points for me: the AI of the companions and the lip synchronization of the French version.

    Despite issues with optimization, a few nagging bugs and a having to navigate a rather underwhelming interface; Bethesda’s personality is on full display in yet another massive installment for one of the industry’s most decorated studios.

    Unconventional to the likes of previous titles like Skyrim and Fallout 3, there isn’t a famous “step out moment” but rather a slow crescendo into what ends up being one of the deepest narrative driven experiences I’ve had in years. There are so many moments that have you feeling like you are playing four or five games in one.

    Starfield is an epic adventure that is worth savoring and is best described as a slow cooked meal- it is the slow cooked meals that are most satisfying.

    The more i play the more i learn to appreciate it. from the story mode to exploring any planet on many solar systems! I love how the game feels old yet new, it definitely keeps the fallout/bethesda vibe there! I recommend this game to anyone on XBOX/PC & for those not on either one of those i feel bad!!

    I can understand that there are people disappointed, in generel there are a lot of things which could have been better or where you just can see the missed potential.
    BUT
    The game itself, the universe, the gameplay, the exploration (yes, even on the empty planets), your oppurtunities to engage with the world, I think it is really amazing and I can just recommend it!
    Looking forward to some patches and the mods, which hopefully are coming to the S as well.

    What a world. People want truth and they will lie to themselves and anyone else to get it, it seems. Their version at least. Anonimity, opinion, bullsh*t. Times change. But you can always trust yourself. A zero out of ten in video games is unjustified hate so I guess vice a versa , which is why maybe I don't rank this game 10, but so far it actually is.

    I was expecting Fallout/Skyrim in space and I feel like that is what I got. I love the gunplay and the space combat is fun. I feel like I got what I was expecting when it comes to a Bethesda game and I appreciate the return to form with a large single player game. Excellent side quests and characters. I will admit the game feels dated at times, especially with all the loading screens. ButI was expecting Fallout/Skyrim in space and I feel like that is what I got.

But as someone who has put 1000+ hours in Fallout I definitely see the DNA but I also notice alot of improvements in the graphics and gameplay. At the end of the day I love BGS style of open world single player games and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the elder scrolls series or fallout and want a big game to get immersed into.… Expand

    Citado os problemas, é importante dizer que sim, Starfield é um jogo de nicho. Se a temática não é do seu interesse, não insista, o jogo não vai te agradar. Agora, se você, assim como eu, gosta do tema, Starfield ganha outra dimensão. A história e a riqueza de detalhes narrativos, são o ápice do jogo. Todos os elementos de RPG, juntos, constroem uma camada complexa e rica, fazendo você não conseguir parar de jogar. É isso que, no fundo, eu espero de um jogo de vídeo game. O jogo precisa me prender, precisa me fazer sentir estar dentro daquela narrativa, precisa ser crível. E isso, Starfield faz com muita competência.

    Infelizmente o jogo vai receber muita nota baixa de pessoas que provavelmente nem são o público do jogo ou que nem jogaram. Não se deixe iludir. Se você gosta de temática espacial, precisa jogar Starfield.    … Expand

    Takes the most appealing elements of Star Citizen, No Man's Sky, Elite Dangerous and Skyrim and mixes them into the perfect sci-fi RPG blend. Loved it from the first second, first game in months that really keeps me interested!

    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.
