    Starfield is an absolutely amazing game! The game is massive and the main story is really well done. It successfully combines all of the elements that I've enjoyed from games like Fallout, Mass Effect, and Wing Commander. Starfield is definitely one of the best games I've ever played.

Hola sonnygers de tw, el juego es un 8 tiene algunos fallos técnicos y no usa toda la tecnología ni mecánicas que se tienen en 2023 pero no quita lo inmenso y grandicioso que es explorar y la variedad de cosas por hacer o elegir es un 8,5 Clavado.

    Note: I played from early access day one via the Premium Edition on Xbox Series X.

    This game is a masterpiece. I have been with Bethesda since Skyrim, gone back and played their oldies, and I have to say this is their best game ever. Let me give you the positives. - Best Bethesda main story. The story had me, I cried at one point even. It is full of mystery, intrigue, great characters,    Note: I played from early access day one via the Premium Edition on Xbox Series X.

    This game is a masterpiece. I have been with Bethesda since Skyrim, gone back and played their oldies, and I have to say this is their best game ever. Let me give you the positives.

    - Best Bethesda main story. The story had me, I cried at one point even. It is full of mystery, intrigue, great characters, and many fun twists and turns. It wears classic sci-fi inspiration on its sleeve which I love. It has elements of Bladerunner, Alien, 2001 A Space Odyssey and more. The ending is incredible and honestly heady.

    - Amazing combat. ID (Doom Eternal) and Machine games (Wolfenstein helped with the combat and you can tell it is polished and feels good. The reload animations are awesome, the weapons feel weighty and unique. Hundreds of customization options are available. You can customize and mod each part of a weapon. Also the way that enemies react to being shot is very realistic. They stumble, blood sprays, and the way they fall and slump over after dying shows off the game's impressive physics system.

    - Amazing faction quests. There are a lot of factions in this game. There are the big main factions like the Vanguard and the Crimson Fleet but you can also find smaller one's with shorter quest lines. For instance I joined a gang! The main faction quest lines are long, well written, and packed with good content.

    - Deep side quests with lot's of choice and consequence and great writing. Every side quest I have done has been a blast.

    - RPG mechanics: Bethesda returns to form here, this is the deepest their RPG systems have been since Oblivion. My character perks and background traits have come up in nearly every mission side and main. I have yet to stumble into even a side quest that didn't give me a dialogue option that let's me flex my background.

    - The persuasion and lockpicking mini games are amazing. Most quests have multiple persuasion checks for those who like to talk their way through a mission.

    - Performance is great. Stable 30FPS. Obviously I wish it were 60 but after seeing just how ambitious this game is and all the systems it has, it makes sense why that decision was made.

    - Writing: this is the best written BGS game ever. Clever, funny, emotional, and at times philosophical.

    - Characters: Great characters especially the constellation members. All memorable, they have fun personal questlines that flesh them out really well.

    - Locations: Talking specifically about the cities, I beat the game after 35 hours and I am still discovering new entire cities on different planets that I did not know existed. My favorite city is Neon. Each feels lived in and unique. They are massive and packed with content!

    - Ships: The ship combat is hard but very fun and very rewarding. Nothing beats disabling a ship's engine, boarding it, killing the grew in zero gravity then stealing the ship and selling it. The ship building is DEEP. I have spent hours just in that menu building new ships, making room for more crew that I can hire, and upping my weapon systems. The space combat is also very deep as you have to in real time divert power to various systems such as shields, engine, or weapons to maintain smart movement, defense, or offense. Really well done.

    - NG+ is brilliant. That is all I will say.

    - Procedural content. Completely optional but a ton of fun. I have yet to see the same thing twice. Each planet has so much to offer and the procedural dungeons so far have all been cool and unique. There is so much handcrafted content however, you will be 70+ hours in before you even would need to think about touching the procedural world's if they are not your thing.

    - Base building: Far better than fallout 4, I actually love it in this game (did not in fallout). It is easier and helps you with resources and storage, also gives you a place to put companions you find and recruit.

    - Impressive systems: Here is an example, each planet and each system in real time moves like real planets. If you sit on a moon for 5 hours and watch the sky you will be able to watch in real time your moon rotate around a planet and that planet rotate around the it's sun. This means that each of the 1,000 planets have their own day night cycle and own planetary time. You can see that planet's unique time/day night cycle when you go to wait or sleep on a planet. As it is contrasted against a Universal or standard time that is galaxy wide. I remember when I was blown away by Forza having a seasonal cycle, but this game literally has full unique day night cycles for each individual planet and moon. Another system that blew me away are the physics and object permanence. I have collected so many stuffed animals and laid them all over my ship. They just stay. I saw someone stored 2,000 potatoes on their ship as well.    … Expand

    Starfield is the type of game that some people will love it other will hate it.
    For me , where I dont like the open worlds very much, game is ok: NIce graphics, voice acting, story, very nice figting feeling, lore, crafting . Great filling of spece exploration. game has got meaningless bugs but comparing to GOWR on PC /ps5, TLOU on PS/ps5 , starfield is perfect game.

    I dont know if it is a game of the decade but it is for sure something new from scratch and this year only BG3 can compete, but these are so different games that they should not run in the same race.

    At the end game is very good but not for me. BG3, also I never liked BG serie. and now turn based - bleeee.
    I encourage everyone to try Starfieldt on GP, on the PC or cloud if net is good enough.

If you're into base-building and ship-building there's a lot to love here too, but I haven't dabbled too much into that.

    It's also worth noting that this is the most bug-free game Bethesda has ever had at launch, which is fantastic. I haven't noticed many bugs and have had zero crashes. Some people don't want to mention this because they're sadists and want to punish Bethesda for past offenses from decades ago. I ask you, if you're a teacher and a student who consistently gets D's starts to work hard and then gets an A, do you continue to punish the child for their failures of the past or do you congratulate them for a job well done? A decent, sane person would congratulate them. Only a psychopath would continue to punish them.

    It's also worth noting that this is the most beautiful game Bethesda has done. Yes, some character models are weird, but the environment art, from the natural landscapes to the cluttered base interiors, is sublime. Their Global Illumination techniques are gorgeous and work very well. Sure, the game isn't as pretty as Cyberpunk or Horizon Forbidden West, but so what? This game is doing so much more than them.

    Instead of focusing on the few things the game doesn't do, focus on all the things this game is actually doing. And it isn't any one thing. You need to see the forest for the trees and see the totality of the experience. Sure, you can't directly fly from planet to planet like NMS, but who cares? NMS doesn't have the some degree of role-playing quests and storytelling. And most of NMS's planets have one biome, whereas some of Starfield's planets have up to 4 distinct biomes on one planet.

    I love this game more with each passing day. It's a genuinely special experience and if you like CRPGs it is very much worth your time. It gives as much as you put in.

    Note: I've been playing on both XBox and PC.    … Expand

    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.

    Une aventure épique dans l'espace. Starfield tire le meilleur parti des précédents jeux du studio, avec le meilleur récit de science-fiction sur l’espace jamais créé. Bravo et merci à Bethesda pour ce chef d'oeuvre !

    Bethesda Games Studios is always advancing the gaming industry and with Starfield it’s no different. It features the best combat the creation engine has ever seen.

The only way you can't like this game is if you don't like the RPG genre or the space theme. There's no other way. This game will go down in history.

    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.
