    Jogo muito bom. Bem legal a interação entre os personagens e as histórias. A história é sensacional. Depois de um tempo, tem uma grande reviravolta. Estou viciado.

    Die 30Fps sind anfangs etwas ruckelig aber durch das langsame Gameplay gewöhnt man sich sehr schnell daran.
    Auch die Grafik ist hübsch und man sieht viele Details in den einzelnen Leveln.
    Die Hauptstory ist Bethesda typisch nichts tolles, aber die ganzen neben Missionen sind sehr liebevoll und spannend gestaltet. Man kann also sehr viel Zeit damit verbringen. Zu den 1000 Planeten sag ich nur so viel, man muss sie nicht erkunden. Je nach lust und Laune erkunde ich mal einen und hin und wieder passiert auch was interessantes.
    Die vielen ladezeiten sind sehr kurz und nicht so extrem wie hier öfters dargestellt wird.
    Wer eine Space sim erwartet ala No mans Sky oder Star citiesen ist hier falsch und starfield wollte und will das auch nicht sein.

    Alles in einem ein sehr gutes Spiel wo man verdammt viele Stunden verbringen kann.
    Lasst euch nicht auf den hate an und probiert es einfach im Gamepass aus    … Expand

    -Barely industry standard space combat
    -Non-existent space exploriation outside of occasional random encounter
    -Rooms upon rooms upon rooms filled with meaningless objects for your ocd friend to pick up
    -No enemy variation (90% of the enemies are human pirates)
    -Awful main story
    -Want to land? load screen. Want to enter a room? load screen. Want to go on a elevetor? load screen...
    -All the classic Bethesda title flaws(bugs,recycled content etc.)

    The only good things in the game are:

    -Ship building
    -Improved combat
    -Environment design
    -Some quests are actually worth playing

    If i boot up any of the old titles right now the game is fun and engaging from start to finish,
    they are filled to the brim with cool stories and adventures to experience, meanwhille in Starfield wherever i go there is someone that wants me to do some tedious busy work for them.
    They took their usual experience and decided to split it up in 100 planets (of the 1000) and added procedural generation to fill the gaps as a result the game is a slog if you play like you would do normally.

    Most of the critic reviews were probably bought, there is simply no way that this game manages to sit even remotely close to baldur's gate 3 score, do not trust the shills watch some gameplay and then make up your mind based on what you witness with your own eyes.

    To end my review, this game is just mid but if you really want to experience it regardless i highly suggest you only do the faction quests, it seems that's where all the effort went.    … Expand

    If it were an MMO, it would have the potential to be a good game. The structure is there, the planets, the construction of ships and bases, everything ready for the community itself to build a collaborative story. But as a single player (or even party player), it's a boring game, with uninteresting and poorly rendered NPCs, empty planets and a very vanilla UI.

    Let me start by saying that I feel like I was cheated out of my hard earned money, not because of the gameplay, but because of how much they are forcing their one sided opinions on people. Nowhere does Bethesda warn you about just how one sided / woke they made this game. I have over 90 hours in this game so I feel like I have a good perspective of what Starfield brings to the table.Let me start by saying that I feel like I was cheated out of my hard earned money, not because of the gameplay, but because of how much they are forcing their one sided opinions on people. Nowhere does Bethesda warn you about just how one sided / woke they made this game. I have over 90 hours in this game so I feel like I have a good perspective of what Starfield brings to the table. Here's a summary:

    1. Almost every important NPC from most store owners, military generals / commanders, the leader of Constellation, the supervisor leading the mining expedition at the start of the game, and even the president of the United Colonies, are all women. When it comes to a position of power or leadership, females very obviously and deliberately dominate every sector. The only time that a white male character is in a position of real leadership, is the leader of the Crimson Fleet, one of the main villains of the game. It's very obvious the developers hate white males, as they are a huge minority. 2. You can tell just how "diverse" the developers are by looking at the random civilians and guards in every city. In 90 hours of gameplay, Most of the guards / soldiers have been either black males or females ( of all races ), and females do dominate the soldiers / guards as well. The civilians consist of both genders, but almost exclusively Black or Asian. It's very rare to find white males anywhere in any cities, and the only places I usually find them is either in the ghetto of every city, or working the mines. With the way the world is going today, this maybe seems like a not too distant reality anyway. 3. If you are religious and believe in God, you will be very disappointed here. This game actively tries to find some sort of "scientific facts" to persuade people into thinking God isn't real. None of the main companions believe in God, and the only one that comes close believes in the "great serpent", in which that religion is viewed as a cult by almost every NPC. 4. When you create your character, you can choose your "body type" and "walk type" between Male or Female, and then you get the privilege to choose your pronouns. You can either be a He, a She, or a They. This one I am not as bothered by as this only revolves around your personal character. You can be a straight male if you want ( Although every romance companion is Bi ). The problem I have with the pronouns is that the Left all say "pronouns are no big deal" but when someone creates a mod to remove pronouns in the character creation for people who don't want to participate in that either due to religion or another reason, are attacked by the Left for their personal preferences. Very hypocritical and selfish of them to force everyone to share their views or get attacked, even though "It's not a big deal". If someone is going to be paying all that money for a game, they should have the freedom to play it how they want personally.

    5. There is a Transgender main character in the game ( part of one of the main side questlines ), but they try to be a little more cautious about the wording on this in the game by calling them a clone. You are pretty much forced to support this character throughout the questline even if you have different beliefs. Overall, the choice to purchase this game is entirely up to you. If you are into everything I mentioned earlier, this game is absolutely for you. But for those that share different beliefs and views, I would highly recommend avoiding the game until they either make it more diverse without the white male oppression, or a mod fixes it. They deliberately hid this aspect of the game until people purchased it and played enough to the point of no longer able to get a refund, and that was the wrong approach from Bethesda. Why can't we have a modern game where people can express themselves without being forced to a single ideology that they might not agree on? In my opinion, this game has to be one of the most racist / sexist games against White males that I have ever played. The gameplay itself is very fun ( other than the limits on exploration ) and there is a lot to do in terms of side activities, base / ship building, combat, etc. So it's not all bad. It all depends on your own personal views. Would it have been great for them to support both sides? Absolutely, but unfortunately that's not how the world is going. For me personally, this game is a 0/10 as the world building is immersion breaking.    … Expand

    Even if textures and graphics are not the most advanced, still makes huge steps since fallout 76.

    So I was worried starfield was over hyped so I got game pass and played it. At first I was not a fan but it grew on me and then bam there the good ol Bethesda. Making me mad then so comfy everything is alrite. I really like this game. Now that said the miniplanetmap is garbage just garbage. It's the 22nd century how does the character not jave one active.

    Empezaré por decir que el juego creó tan demasiada expectativa que a causa de eso hubo muchos usuarios que se animaron y experimentaron por primera vez un juego de Bethesda y al estilo Fallout.

A causa de esto se llevaron una gran decepción ya que no era el juego que esperaban, dónde todoEmpezaré por decir que el juego creó tan demasiada expectativa que a causa de eso hubo muchos usuarios que se animaron y experimentaron por primera vez un juego de Bethesda y al estilo Fallout. Que no tenían experiencia o conocimiento en como son esos juegos, en como se manejan y como funcionan. A causa de esto se llevaron una gran decepción ya que no era el juego que esperaban, dónde todo iba a ser sencillo de entender, todo iba a estar espectacular o todo iba a ser de interés (que la mayoría de las cosas si lo son). Ahora habiendo dicho esto, el juego no tiene el comienzo mas icónico o memorable, y si le sumas que a más de alguno le resultaría difícil de comprender las mecánicas o menús al comienzo pues resulta en una mala experiencia para el jugador casual o no acostumbrado a ese tipo de juegos.

    Por otro lado, el juego tiene tantas virtudes más allá de la limitada exploración espacial o los viajes por menús o planetas carentes de estructuras que llamen la atención. El juego tiene una gran variedad de historias, acontecimientos, personajes, lores y actividades en cada punto que visites y dónde vayas. El juego es de rol, ¡tienes que rolear! vivir el juego como realmente lo merece y esto es jugar con calma, leer, acostumbrarte a los controles, aprender a moverte por su sistema de menús y viajes. Comprender el crafteo y la investigación de cosas en general. Hay muchas armas, muchas habilidades, muchos poderes y muchas maneras de jugar o de abordar cualquier misión, solamente debes tomarte el tiempo. Si eres un jugador experimentado en juegos de Fallout o Elder Scrolls sabrás de lo que hablo.

    Lo que peor está del juego yo diría que es la inteligencia artificial de los enemigos en el combate, se quedan atascados o voltean a otro lado o solamente absorben balas como esponjas cuando tienen más barras de vida. Tus compañeros tienen el clásico síndrome de estorbar o meterse en medio de todo, es algo muy común en sus juegos pero no debería ya de existir eso en pleno 2023.
    También la optimización debería ser mejor en algunos casos, porque en ciertos lugares si llega a dar tirones, no es molesto pero si llama la atención.

    Hay muchos temas de cuales podría hablar del juego pero es que es mejor que todo lo vayas descubriendo por ti mismo. Solo debo decirte que vas a disfrutar mucho las actividades que esconden cada planeta con cada estructura, asentamiento o lugar. Además en el espacio al saltar de sistema en sistema o de planeta en planeta puedes encontrarte naves o estaciones en órbita con grandes momentos.

    Lo recomiendo probar y si te gusta te recomiendo explorar primero todas las actividades para que te vayas familiarizando de la mejor manera con el juego.    … Expand

    No início o game é lento porque tem que apresentar os personagens e o universo no geral para você. Mas quando a história vai pra frente em alguns minutos de play slk a história te prende demais! Tiroteio, contrabando, polícia espacial. Quem sentia falta de um mass effect esse jogo é um prato cheio!

In any case, there is a lot of attention to detail to the game and side missions are fun and have purpose, often heavy story driven. Companions are, just as in all Bethesda games useful as mules. 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

    This Game looks so nice and for a person who always loved Astronomy is it more genius. The way you skill your character and improve it or find some new random planets from over 1000 of it. It's just great. Ok if you cannot search completely every stone from every over 1000 planets. Who cares? And who wants it? Enjoy this Game and be happy

    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.
