    It's a strange thing to play this game. List the features of the game: open universe, space battles, terrestrial combat, diverse factions interacting, loads of different weapons, deep character customisation; it should be a great game.

List the features of the game: open universe, space battles, terrestrial combat, diverse factions interacting, loads of different weapons, deep character customisation; it should be a great game.

    But. At no point in the game am I actually having fun in the moment. For the first dozen hours, I am instead merely anticipating enjoyment, but it never comes. This is because the developers were so focussed on the big things I listed above that they forgot to make any of the constituent elements of those things interesting or fun.

    The space fights devolve into trivial encounters in which one holds a button while following another ship, or they consist of a series of jousts. The ground combat is seriously like something out of the 90s, the AI is basic AF and the layout of the missions means that an interesting stealth approach is generally unfeasible.

    The missions are structured in a way that leaves one simply fast travelling and waiting in loading screens, or even worse, following a cookie cutter npc as they walk incredibly slowly towards another npc. When the NPCs speak, it is with half arsed vocal performances delivering lines so boring that one learns mash the skip button within 5 minutes of playing.

    Anyone who's played Star Citizen knows that one of the best things about that game is how seamless the transition between atmosphere and space is, the knowledge that you could actually fly 2km down to the surface and land your ship enriches the (broken) experience so much. The fact that Bethesda did not allow us to fly in atmosphere and land our ships and all that is baffling to me. They go to all this effort to make different planets and outer space, but don't actually link them in an interesting way. Because of this, each planet, and space itself, feels siloed when it should all feel connected and open.

    Genuinely, honestly, the highlight of this game is the lockpicking. Finally someone has found a nice middle ground in difficulty for this age-old game mechanic.

    Between the interest in this, Star Citizen and No Man's Sky, we know the market for a great space opera game is out there. No one seems quite able to pull it off.    … Expand

    One of the best games of all time. BGS took their already excellent formula and improved upon multiple aspects of it, and had a very smooth launch to boot. Inflated my score a bit to counteract all the butthurt Sony Ponies review bombing. Haven’t finished the game yet but I’d say this game is at least a 9-9.5 out of 10. Maybe higher but at least a 9.

    What else could someone expect from the vast size of the cosmos... its a whole lot of boring nothing. i dont even want to spend much time explaining why this game is boring, so in short summary:
    The open world is filled with ugly looking ressources and wildlife, which can be hunted/gathered and scanned, anyone could build a better world with a map builder on any game, i even remember    What else could someone expect from the vast size of the cosmos... its a whole lot of boring nothing. i dont even want to spend much time explaining why this game is boring, so in short summary:
    The open world is filled with ugly looking ressources and wildlife, which can be hunted/gathered and scanned, anyone could build a better world with a map builder on any game, i even remember doing a better job at farcry2 or 3 (dont remember anymore), where the maps actually looked pretty.
    So in all that boring nothingness, you get a few outposts/settlements/buildings, where you can loot and explore, guess what, opening the door will require to wait a few seconds for you to enter, its probably just a small loading screen. after entering it, you will get a whole lot of items you can loot, there comes the other thing which made me hate the gameplay, 135kg where i can store stuff, and its already full after like 5mins of exploring a building. so you either have to overload your companion or run back to your ship and store it there and come back later. but dont worry, thats not the only quality of life feature which is missing, the game also doesnt have a map (i mean a technology advanced enough for space travel but not maps), it also doesnt have a minimap.
    the fasttravel system is complicated, you have to look at the location with your scanner and use fasttravel.

    - no normal fasttravel
    - no map
    - no minimap
    - super bland coloring / watching the game is enough to bore the sht out of you
    - boring introduction
    - boring and ugly world
    - the moment you start enjoying the exploration , your bag gets full

    i for my part didnt enjoy it, i bought the preorder pack for over 100bucks, got a refund, played it on the gamepass and still didnt enjoy it and quit early on.
    never gonna trust any of the gameplay reviews again

    Pretty boring so far (4 hours.) I'll change my review if that changes. This game needs a big dose of medicine from Dr. Nomansky.

    This is MOST DEFINITELY a Gamepass Game. At least you'll be able to play Civ 6 & Monster Train & GREAT RPGs like Pillars of Eternity 2 & Dragon Age & New Vegas & Oblivion if you don't like this.

There's so much in the game, so many possibilities, so much hidden history, so much going on. The factions are very well built.

    I don't think it's a 10 game, but I gave it a 10 to contrast with the bias of bad ratings. I would give it an 8. I had a lot of fun, I think the stealth mechanics could have been a little better developed, as well as facial features in intense dialogues, small problems.
    Exploration would be more fun if it weren't so randomized every time you land in some corner of a planet. They wanted to give the feeling of infinite possibilities but created an immense lack of interest in random exploration. That's the only point that made me take 2 points out of the game.    … Expand

    This game was ruined for me by the AI. It is terrible, some of the worst AI I have ever seen. There was not much immersion in the game for me due to the main story and lame space travel, and the AI killed the remaining bit. You can shoot a 1000 bullets at the security guards as long as you don’t hit them and they don’t care. Just like I don’t care about this game.

    First, the visuals really are XboxOne era, and level desing on the various habitats is painfully bland and uninspiring. And the planets are very barren and monotonous affairs indeed.
    Combat, enemy AI and various other elements feel like a step backwards from Fallout 4.
    But for me, the worst part are the stories.
    Now in previous Bethesda games, the unique and original stories were what made me love them. Such fascinating stuff. But in Starfield, the stories feel very bland in comparison, and in many places, feel like they were ripped from Mass Effect and other scifi sources. So, not very original or unique.
    Any good stuff? Well, character creator is very good, and there are plenty of interesting skills to choose from. Unfortunately not all of those skills have that much use in the game proper! So, this means that you are given a promise of a deep RPG with all those skills, but then you will actually be playing a very shallow looter-shooter.
    Bugs? Sure. Lots of them. But what game does not have them at launch. But I can already see, even when patched up, the game will not be nearly as good as other Bethesda games. 6/10, and that because I like Bethesda.    … Expand

    I did not get spoiled by anything, did not read any hype review, I just wanted to play a good new Bethesda game - since they are so proud of the fact it's the first truly new IP in 25 years, I hoped they'd really deliver on it... since I started playing their games with Morrowind, I had some hopes they'd make it. Sadly they did not.

Sadly they did not.

    TL;DR:
    They did a Fallout 76 on their "Space Skyrim" - OR: The Space Skyrim that never was. If you are a fan of Sci-Fi and "Open World" - which works in the strongest sense of the word in this game since the vastness the game simulates is humongous... however it feels almost like an empty shell when you get to explore. Much like No Man's Sky, it only gives the impression of being big and exciting, with great variations. The systems are a chore - even worse than Oblivions "use a Skill 100 times to advance in level" system, this game makes you work for even being able to Sneak, Lockpick and steer bigger space ships. It would all be acceptable if the grind wasn't that downright dull, if the Characters you meet in your first stretch of the journey weren't that kind of empty and one-dimensional-feeling and the Ship / Space mechanics weren't that "Elite Dangerous" kind of level.

    This way, you get the worst out of 3 genres and all mashed into one humongous - albeit good-looking on Xbox X, game - on PC better prepare to have a huge graphics card budet that'd buy you two Xbox Series X likely and a year of Game Pass. Maybe that's what Microsoft/Beth wanted? Sell those Xboxes... it might work initially but boy, when the people get to playing this they just might be regretting that decision.

    Bethesda seem to really love their "random number generator" engine - it drove many of their Elder Scrolls and the new Fallouts to new heights - but back then these games had a Soul infused in form of a major storyline, exciting characters to meet all across the Wastes or the vast action-filled mysterious world of Tamriel.

    If they have the "whole of eternity" to work with, it seems the previous ingenuity of Bethesda seems to get dulled and stretched too far. This game has an inkling of the brilliance that was the first 5 hours of most any Elder Scrolls Game or Fallouts 3, New Vegas and 4 - but once the vacuum of Space sucks at your brain when you realize the first 5 hours of this Megahyped Game do not reach the old heights but are a downright borefest it's a bit sad.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Deixou coisas simples e significativas de lado, ignorando totalmente o consumidor e se importando apenas com a opinião da mídia crítica. Um jogo de tiro, com comandos duros, iria destruir todo o projeto simplesmente adicionar suporte pra mouse e teclado e permitir o jogador desfrutar do produto como achar melhor ??? Iria falir a microsoft fazer esse pequeno investimento presente até mesmo em jogos indie? Outro ponto é a localização de áudio, há raras ocasiões onde eu realmente acho que uma localização de áudio estragaria a recepção cinematográfica, e starfield não é uma delas. Não há um único grande ator renomado ou extremamente talentoso fazendo as vozes dos npcs pra justificar a falta de uma localização (vide Elden Ring) , na verdade eu tenho a plena certeza de que os dubladores brasileiros teriam feito 1000x melhor e com mais emoção cada situação apresentada, mas quanto a isso eu entendo que seria sim uma diferença significativa no orçamento. Também não gostei do desempenho do jogo no xbox series S , com o jogo crashando e tendo apenas uma opção gráfica que deixa o jogo travando e tentando ser bonito sem conseguir, me senti novamente na época do "PC fraco" com a diferença que no PC fraco mesmo travando e com gráficos low eu jogava a 60 fps na maior parte do tempo. Tentei dar uma chance ao jogo joguei umas boas horas mas eu , como milhares de outros, e como é de nosso direito como consumidor, não consigo me adaptar a um jogo de tiro no controle, e a xbox criou um padrão nos últimos anos onde todos seus exclusivos vinham com suporte para mouse e teclado, o que me fez investir nos periféricos e agora não posso usar pois empresas bilionárias como activision blizzard e bethesda sabem que isso só é bom pro consumidor, já que a mídia crítica vai jogar no PC mesmo... Como podem sonhar com goty, the game awards? Não perceberam que até os jogos controversos que conquistaram o prêmio, eram de qualidade notável acima da média? Com opções inovadoras e acessibilidade respeitável, sempre pensando como tornar o jogo mais agradável possível para o consumidor, enquanto esse faz propositalmente decisões que tornam o jogo desagradável, ou que removem opções para os jogadores. Porquê no PC tem suporte a controle, e inclusive, NINGUÉM usa pois jogo de tiro no mouse é muito melhor, e no xbox somos obrigados a usar o que ninguém escolhe quando tem a opção? E porquê isso só passou a ser comum e ignorável após a vinda da bethesda? Pra mim quem gostou do jogo tem todo o direito de gostar, inclusive tenho certeza que com suporte a mouse e teclado eu conseguiria encarar o começo pífio do jogo e chegar aos momentos que todos exaltam, mas minha experiência foi péssima ao passar meia hora tentando ajustar sensibilidade pra conseguir jogar jogo de tiro no controle, e ainda assim ficar 60 segundos tomando tiro até conseguir colocar a mira em cima do inimigo pra acertar UM. Também entendo quem está criticando o jogo COM MOTIVOS e não apenas fanatismo, pois estamos vindo de longos anos sem um first-party de expressão e a promessa em cima de starfield era pra no mínimo TENTAR agradar o maior número de jogadores possível, o que é óbvio não aconteceria, mas o jogador mais exigente adoraria ver a empresa tentando fazer um jogo com capricho, e não ignorando coisas que não dariam tanto trabalho ao mesmo tempo que trariam melhorias significativas. Pra mim o erro do jogo foi dar liberdade demais pra bethesda, ao invés de exigir pelo menos a qualidade que já vinha sendo apresentada nos jogos first-party (qualidade geral, e não de enredo ou qualquer outra coisa, pois eu jamais questionaria a qualidade dos escritores da bethesda). Em suma, pra mim o pecado de starfield é exatamente o mesmo de Diablo IV, investir valores absurdos mas só se preocupar com a recepção crítica e não do consumidor, cortando qualidade de vida em prol de momentos específicos que chamam atenção pro marketing do jogo.… Expand

    Not bad as people say. Far from being good as Todd Howard said. The game doesn't make a good use of space theme and the story could be in a single planet (and it would be better without so many fast travels between planets). The story is also a litle cliche.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Al día de hoy existe un enorme problema en las comunidades de jugadores, todo el mundo "valora" este titulo basándose en quien es el desarrollador, en este caso Bethesda. pero lamentablemente no valoran el juego como tal, sin embargo daré mi opinión sincera y sin cortarme ni un pelo.

    este se supone que era un titulo mastodóntico ESPACIAL con miles de sitios para explorar pero la realidad dista mucho de eso, la impresionante cantidad de Menús y pantallas de carga quita la inmersión en ese aspecto, cada ítem, cada viaje rápido, cada misión aturde de manera que no quieres seguir en el titulo, los despegues/aterrizajes se vuelven aburridos y repetitivos, no brindan las experiencia de explorar el espacio, mas que dar vueltas a los planetas, en un espacio donde según la humanidad esta mas avanzada, los planetas deberían brindar mayor información, mejores instalaciones, mayores puntos de interés, no se les ocurrió pensar que las formas de avance de la humanidad también se vería reflejado en el futuro y los viajes espaciales, es deprimente que no permite viajar y controlar la nave, las contadas 10 opciones para maniobras de vuelo reflejan la desidia por parte de un explorador espacial, donde debería ser importarte cientos de opciones para una buena maniobra en la nave se queda en algo anecdótico.

    los npc son completamente poco trabajados, las reacciones no son ni medianamente acordes con las situaciones en el momento, les disparas en la cara y solo observan, disparas al cielo y corren en círculos, cientos de fallas en los mismos, poco desafío al enfrentarlos, poca reacción de los ciudadanos, poco daño en las armas, ES IMPRESIONANTE la cantidad de bugs y errores de los npc, 3 o 4 en una esquina bug, personajes que pierden las texturas, la poca calidad de trabajo en los mismo deprime, los npc principales deberían tener un poco mas de inteligencia, sin embargo el 99% son cascaras vacías con respuestas repetitivas aleatorias que no dan espacio a el reto real.

    es un titulo que ha querido abarcar tanto en tantos aspectos y géneros que no llega a destacar en ninguno, se siente increíblemente mediocre y triste, a veces MENOS ES MAS, pero en este caso MAS ES MENOS.

    La calidad técnica refleja un titulo que no fue pensado ni desarrollado para las nuevas Xbox, se siente un título de 360 con algo mas de calidad un "aparente" 4k o 1440 que solo engaña al espectador, pero que al detalle, también esta AHI POR ESTAR, NO PARA SU DISFRUTE, parece que salió muy pronto, texturas, errores, y deficiencias que no deberían estar presentes en un titulo que fue retrasado tanto Y QUE SE CONSIDERA DE NUEVA GENERACION, SE SIENTE COMO UN ENGAÑO MAS.

    Algo que no me explico es como un titulo de esta categoría logro que la Xbox series X parezca un horno microondas, pensé que el disipador estaba taponeado por lo que tenia que limpiarlo NUEVAMENTE, pero es evidente que la series x no esta preparada de forma correcta en la disipación, mucho musculo poca fuerza, aparte que el titulo esta tan mal optimizado que parece un juego indie desarrollado por dos o tres personas, con todo el respeto que se merecen los juegos indies y sus desarrolladores.

    si esta es la calidad futura que se piensa conseguir gracias a servicios como el Game Pass, NO RECOMIENDO EL SERVICIO, cometí un error al adquirirlo de forma anticipada y me arrepiento de no poder regresarlo,

    The models of the in-game characters look like they came from a game made in the 2010s.

    The worst part still remains the frame-rate issues especially during space battles where you would need to manoeuvre around obstacles and target enemy spaceships. Spinning the camera with these frame-rates simply disconnects you from the entire experience.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have spent 19 hours playing this game on my Series S. I have not engaged with the shipbuilding or base building mechanic. I spent most of my time completing the main quest and think I have reached the final mission.

    I will try to judge the game based on what it is, rather than what I wanted it to be.

    **Spoilers ahead** Here are my thoughts:

    Story/main quest:
    The game starts off as poorly as everyone says. You touch a spooky piece of metal and, immediately, someone shows up and gives you a ship. The robot on board is supposed to keep you from stealing the ship or heading off course. You fight a bunch of 'space pirates' and then you blast off. This introduction didn't bother me too much because it gets you into the game very quickly. It still isn't very good, though.

    You join a group called Constellation which is seeking out these strange metal objects and associated 'xenostructures'. Most of the main missions follow one of two formulas after this:

    1: Talk to guy on space station (which means watching the docking sequence and walking through the station) -> Fast travel to planet -> Look around until your scanner starts flickering -> Walk towards the 'interference (many times I did not need to use the scanner because the temple was clearly visible from my ship) -> Find a temple and enter it (they all look the same/similar) -> Float around the interior, floating into clusters of light until you power up the structure in the middle of the room -> absorb power- > Go back to your ship.

    This essentially grants you the shouts from Skyrim and each temple follows this formula. That's it. No challenge or puzzle. Literally just walking from your ship to a temple (following your scanner if you can't see it already) and floating into clusters of light. It's repetitive and not engaging.

    2: Go to a base somewhere, fight pirates, robots, or another human faction and find the 'Artefact'. There are variations of this, with later versions having a light puzzle element, but all are fundamentally the same. This quest design makes up a majority of the main quest and is, quite frankly, insipid.

    The story itself did become more interesting abut halfway through when the 'Starborn' reveal themselves. The spooky pieces of metal that you have been collecting turn out to be a way to access 'Unity', something that grants people incredible power and the ability to hop between dimensions. The more times a 'Starborn' completes this journey, by collecting the artefacts, the more powerful they become.

    Overall, the main quest and search for powers has been uninteresting and very repetitive. People say the side quests are better. But shouldn't the main quest be one of the most compelling parts of the game? It doesn't make me want to continue with the game.

    General gameplay:
    The gameplay is very repetitive. I spent most of my time either running between objectives, talking to npcs, fast traveling, or shooting.

    The shooting is ok. most enemies are bullet sponges and don't have any unique powers. The harder enemies usually just have more shields or health, higher numbers. Most of the time, I would unload a clip into an enemy and just run up to them and punch them to finish them off. It was actually quicker to do that most of the time.

    That brings me onto the enemy AI. It is terrible, absolutely awful. One mission made me kill a bunch of space pirates, each with their own marker, and one of them ran in the opposite direction. They weren't fleeing; the AI is just broken. Similarly, the enemies never tried to flank me or do any interesting manoeuvres.

    Ship combat is equally as bad and seems to just rely on your numbers being higher than the enemy's, which is not inherently bad. But there is no skill involved. A boss in Elden Ring can be defeated if you are at a low level if you have skill. Levelling makes the fight easier. This is not how it works in Starfield.

    Bugs and performance:
    A few times characters would not appear during dialogue or would be facing the wrong way. The game crashed once when the menu failed to load, and I had to reload when my character got stuck talking to the floor and couldn't move (dialogue was triggered with a character below me). Sometimes my weapons became unresponsive. Switching to a different one fixed that. Also, sometimes the reticle flashes red like there is an enemy when there is nothing.

    Overall, the game is perfectly mediocre. There are no high highs or low lows that make the game feel uneven and boring at times. The game is relatively consistent, probably because the loop for every main mission is almost exactly the same. I wouldn't say anything in this is ambitious or even new. It's full of mechanics and systems that we have seen before and seen done better.

    I would also like to say that people should not be relying on mods to make this game better. It's literally a company benefitting from unpaid labour to make their own product better.    … Expand

Que la exploración no es de el agrado de todos lo entiendo, i tiene cosas por mejorar pero eso no lo convierte para nada en un mal juego. Yo en 30h no e tenido ninguna necesidad de perderme por los planetas, todo lo que he hecho an sido misiones, ( misiones secundarias en su gran mayoría ) está lleno en contenido de misiones como para que no tengas la necesidad de perder horas explorando planetas, si quieres o necesitas algún recurso especifico lo haces i sino quieres pues no lo haces y punto. Otro punto flaco son las animaciones y expresiones faciales de los personajes que se sienten anticuadas fruto de usar el mismo motor que en Skyrim y fallout. Pero es algo que tampoco rompe la experiencia con el juego. Las quejas con los Menus tampoco las entiendo, a mi parecer son menús sencillos e intuitivos, odio los menús plagados de información ( en muchos casos información inútil ) y con mucha letra pequeña. Yo no me quejo tanto de la i.a de los enemigos pero si de la de tu compañero que en ocasiones se pone delante tuyo en medio de un tiroteo. Todavía no e tenido tiempo de sumergirme en la creación de naves y asentamientos, pero sé que cuando lo aga tendré otras tantas horas más de juego. En definitiva, toda esa gente que le a puesto 5 al juego es porque se pensaban que esto iba a ser un no man's Sky echo por bethesda, pero el no man's Sky es un juego de solo exploración y más exploración, carente de personajes con trasfondo y personalidad y historias con carisma, que es lo que es Starfield.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game isn’t bad, it sure starts off slow, like boringly slow to the point where i was considering closing the game. But then it picked up and writhing like a mission it went from being too boring and bleak to be actually really fun. I have to admit, starfield fails to keep me at the edge of my seat but at the times where i am, it’s actually amazing. The first mission for the UC (space police) literally threw me into a horror film that I genuinely loved. Having that said the game play is good. It’s not amazing but it’s something i like playing. On the other hand. Starfield does have a few faults. For example the lack of vehicles to move is atrocious. I could literally be walking for a full 5 minutes to reach an area just to decide i want to go back. I don't understand why this wasn't added in, it defiantly should be in a later patch or dlc. As for the guns and ammo drops it’s kind of annoying but still ok. Overall this a good game and i definitely recommend it for players with game pass. While others that don’t have game pass, i recommend waiting. Because the game at times make me feel it’s worth it, and times i feel like it’s not. That’s why in my opinion id give it a 7-8 because although it’s good it doesn’t compete with other first party games from other studios or companies. Because at the end of the day you have to weigh the different options out it’s not the same but it is good. I’m still not done with the game. Once I’m done with the game ill be sure to add another post game review.… Expand

There are some truly odd choices. In all honesty this game could be a 9 out of 10 in around 6 months to a year. Once the modding community has fixed it. It's a really good game. It's just going to take time to get there. For instance, the game is optimised to run smoothly on a RTX4080 and that's from the horse's mouth. That card accounts for like 0.53% of users on steam. So, for the vast majority of players the game looks and feels terrible to play.

    There is this huge gap between those that have the hardware to run the game and those that don't and as a game development company. Bethesda should be aware of this. The completely out of touch comment of, this is a next gen title when for most people the game looks and feels like a PS3 title. Is sadly going to mean lower scores on meta critic.

    If reviewers were honest about the game, they would review the game on a 3060. Which is the top ish part of the bell curve for gpu performance on steam. If your game does not look and feel fantastic to play on a 3060. Ur going to have a bad day in the user review section of Metacritic.    … Expand

Nobody needs a "1000" planets, they could have populated far few and the experience would be better. With the way the game is designed there is alot of stopping and starting due to this. Most planets will appear the same and lack diversity, no cultural significance is gained from venturing to different solar systems, the universe is universal. What you experience is quite bland and the environments appear sterile without any significant character. The game looks great and is optimised well for the xbox series x where I've only had a couple of crashes in my 30 hour play through. The bland fallout in space, fast travel simulator isn't what I was expecting.    … Expand

I don’t think I would be so disappointed if they wouldn’t have marketed it like it wasn’t going to just be a fallout clone. Planet variation is only slightly more interesting than dungeon variations in Skyrim lol. Overall, I’d say if you are into Bethesda games, this is going to be good for you. If you are burnt out by the soulless open-world style games I’d recommend skipping this one.… Expand

    -The amount of choice and ways to approach situations and paths to take is amazing
    -The character creator is the best ive ever seen
    -Shipbuilding and Base Building is fun and allows For a different experience to be had when wanting to take a break from the action..
    - The Main Story and the Larger Side Stories are some of the best and most well written Bethesda quests in their history….

    Cons: - NPCs can feel a bit bland at times
    -Graphically this game isnt bad but they are sometimes some very washed out texture or just bad pop ins.
    -Facial animations sometimes looks bad.
    - This game is very very heavy. This can be a pro or a con, but this game can feel very overwhelming at times, and at one specific point if you dont prepare yourself U can feel as if everything you have done was wasted.

    OVERALL: The pros heavily outweigh the cons, This game is an easy 8.5/10, If you love RPGs, or BGS games, then the amount of choices, customizations, open endedness of the world makes it all worth investing time into this game…IJust take your time with it, its not a slow burn, but because of the size and scope you can easily become overwhelmed.

    the main quest line has to be the most uninspiring dull, tedious and horrendously written story i've played yet.. its mostly go here, talk to them, go there, load load load, use menu to travel, load, shoot, talk, sneak, shoot, talk, load, fetch. most of the main story line is talking to people, and then delving into copy and pasted caves and dungeons etc to get the artificats. now.. there are a few great quests thrown in the main story, but by the time it picks up, its over.. theres no expert delivery, leaving you feel impacted by its story, world, characters or events.. theres minimal impact. the dialogue gets so tediously boring, you end up skipping alot of the filler content.. and the main story for 90% of it bored the living life out of me, with how tediously boring it was, paired with the insanely uninspiring and tediously annoying "exploration" system they have.. so even if one quest immersed you into its world, you're then taken straight back out of it, when your only means to travel is through menus and load screens. it doesnt exactly sound like unparrelled freedom and exploration, and is an insane set back in many ways in comparison to their other games. WOW is over 20 years old and you can seemlessly travel its map. this has no excuse. i had hoped the story would pick up and deliver a blow that made the tedious journey worth my time, but by the time i started to feel the build up, it was over with an anti climatic ending.. and a over hyped new game plus that had plenty of promise and potential to its jaw dropping plot twists, but ultimately fell flat as it leads nowhere at all to make any significant difference to your story, other than a few dialogue changes, but plopping you back into its dull world, and terrible story.. at first you have a chance to skip the story in NG+, and at first the new lines of dialogue is fresh.. but it leads nowhere. will i be able to find my old companions in this new world? nah. its a novelty.

    the combat is nothing to shout home about, though its not the worst. its very much fallout 4 on steroids, a lil bit smoother than FO4, and a lil more fluent. the choice of weapons have an abundance of choices to choose from, to suit your gameplay style. although their melee system is horribly bad and out dated, with no improvements from their previous games at all.

    the sidequest is where this game shines, and unfortunately so, as if your side content over shadows your main.. something is wrong.. however, the side content very much out shined the main story, and engages you in quests that very much feel quality wise, 10 folds better than the 7th grade written main plots. i will keep this part short, as i dont want to spoil anything. but get arrested, that quest is one of theee best, regardless on where you choose to branch.

    summary: this game couldve been a genre defining GOTY exclusive, but has ultimately been laid flat,with the countless words being sprung out of petes mouth, that ultimately mis communicated somewhere along the way of what to expect with this game. is this game bad? no.. depends. if youre looking for an immersive flight exploration game, AVOID THIS. if you're looking for fallout in space without much ship exploration manually done.. and you can bare loading screen after loading screen, then this is for you. ive played over 50 hours to form this opinion, and it just aint what we were told it would be. too much promises, and very little delivery, its a beautiful game, and one of the smoother BGS's experiences to date, however with a uninspiring main story, and tedious exploration system that makes starfield fall flat on its face. once youve finished the game once, after 50 hours i feel very little urge to jump back on, instead im going back to star citizen and elite dangerous.. i hope with updates, mods, and the expansion, alot of these issues are resolved. but rn, id say wait for a sale.    … Expand

That doesn’t work when you have a controller in your hands for a interactive experience. The beginning of this game isn’t compelling. It’s going to take a few hours of play to get things really going. This also is not No Man’s Sky. This needs to be stressed because exploration is not what this game is about. There’s a lot of walking and no vehicles to get around when you go off the beaten path. This is a Bethesda game. So you’re getting a decent story here. The dialogue isn’t the best. Conversations are meh. That’s not saying anything bad about the voice actors. But I’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate 3, and going through Cyberpunk 2077 again. The difference I feel is that out of these three, two of these games were trying to prove something. One of them rested on their laurels because they’re Bethesda and they got it like that. It’s a story you will like. It has characters you will like. But you’ve experienced better. Graphics and visuals are nice. Not next gen nice though. Maybe it’s because I’m streaming on Xcloud on my MacBook Pro, but walking and running feels like my character is out training, and my companion is behind them adding resistance with a resistance band. Maybe it’s a streaming and bandwidth thing. Visually this game looks like it could have come out 7 to 10 years ago. Again maybe that’s because I’m streaming. If I’m being honest, if someone said this was a Fallout 4 DLC expansion, set even further in the future, I would believe it. This doesn’t look that much better than Fallout 4. Characters look stiff in the traditional Bethesda way. Which is fine, but I thought Bethesda would approach the way they presented they stories in a new way. At least some different camera angels when you’re in conversation. They’re just stiff. It kills the immersion for me 100 times more than any frame rate issues. Being a pirate is so much fun. I’ve killed so many people, pillaged the hell out of them and stolen their ships. If you want to have fun, be bad. Ship building and customizing them is also fun. This is what I have the least to say about because it’s where I’m enjoying my experience with this game the most. That does bring me to flying the ship. Maybe I’m crazy, but the ship is where it feels like they were trying to make a space sim RPG. Because the way you can adjust various power levels is unique. It just doesn’t really fit with the rest of the game for me. It’s like that’s where the innovation ran into a bottleneck. I also have to mention loading screens. The loading screens. OMG the loading screens. Walk into a building. Loading screen. Walk into a cave. Loading screen. Walk up the ramp of your ship. Loading screen. The game is not seamless. The loading screens are an annoyance. It feels like someone said, “Look, we aren’t Star Citizen that’s in open beta for 10 years. This game has to come out and this is the time limit you have.” And with that this doesn’t feel like something that has been in development for 20 years. This could have come out when Fallout 4 did, because there’s nothing that makes this better or worse than any Mass Effect or Star Wars the Old Republic. Wait. Mass Effect has ground transportation so you’re not walking endlessly. Which is why I consider this just a good basic RPG. One that is especially great for gamers who are new to the genre, or you want a good casual RPG experience. I really wish I could give this more than a 7. Even though I’m having a good enough time, I’m also soldiering through it. I also can’t call this a next gen game. I want to be a Bethesda cheerleader. I really wanted to love this game. I wanted this to be the game that makes me want to buy an Xbox, instead of being content streaming this and churning my Game Pass subscription. I do have to say this should definitely be streamed first and consider that a demo before you pay full price.… Expand

    No entiendo como un proyecto tan grande tiene defectos, detalles y aspectos de videojuegos de hace 10 años. Tiene muchos aspectos negativos o a mejorar, la IA de los enemigos en combate es bastante nula, el gunplay es mediocre, las pantallas de carga merman considerablemente la experiencia de juego, y la faceta de exploración es decepcionante. Por otro lado un tema tan importante en esteNo entiendo como un proyecto tan grande tiene defectos, detalles y aspectos de videojuegos de hace 10 años. Tiene muchos aspectos negativos o a mejorar, la IA de los enemigos en combate es bastante nula, el gunplay es mediocre, las pantallas de carga merman considerablemente la experiencia de juego, y la faceta de exploración es decepcionante. Por otro lado un tema tan importante en este juego como la interacción con los demás personajes es muy pobre, ya que el aspecto facial de los personajes y sus animaciones no están a la altura. En conversaciones el plano es idéntico siempre, desaprovechando el aspecto gráfico y visual que sí que es de sobresaliente en este juego.
    Independientemente de lo que se esperase de este juego, no me parece una experiencia sobresaliente en 2023. Hay que elogiar la parte técnica, el extensísimo guion, el doblaje, el apartado visual y las físicas. Lo recomiendo para amantes del género RPG y de la temática espacial.    … Expand

    Bethesda se ha convertido en una empresa más que solo busca vender sin invertir, lo tenemos representado en este juego, con un motor gráfico desactualizado, una pésima inteligencia artificial, material reciclado de sus juegos estrella como fallout o Skyrim, banda sonora pésima, el juego es más que evidente que no fue hecho con miras a ser un grandioso juego que se pudiese disfrutar sino enBethesda se ha convertido en una empresa más que solo busca vender sin invertir, lo tenemos representado en este juego, con un motor gráfico desactualizado, una pésima inteligencia artificial, material reciclado de sus juegos estrella como fallout o Skyrim, banda sonora pésima, el juego es más que evidente que no fue hecho con miras a ser un grandioso juego que se pudiese disfrutar sino en todo caso a vender por vender, se veía mal desde que te vendían ya la expansión del juego, que bueno que no lo compre ni pienso comprarlo lo tengo en Game pass y a 30 horas de juego ya voy a desinstalarlo, me llevo una muy mala experiencia de este juego inflado por el poderío de Microsoft y nada más, en conclusión es un mal juego de una compañía que era de mis favoritas hoy solo viviendo de lo que una vez fue.… Expand

    Starfield is definitely the best Xbox game released in a while and brings a breath of fresh air that even Xbox games can achieve greatness, just like PS and Nintendo games. Although this is the case, Starfield is basically just a reskin of No Man's Sky with not many new things to call itself truly unique, so this is why I rate it at a 1.

I'm obviously not hating on Xbox or anything, but I just can't rate Starfield higher with these flaws. From the way I see it, I would say Starfield is a dull version of No Mans Sky.
    Even though this is the case, if you like No Mans Sky, you will love Starfield, but if you don't like No Mans Sky, you will not like Starfield. Whatever it is, I either recommend this game or not.    … Expand

    Cons:
    1) Low, medium, high, ultra settings all look very similar.
    2) Excessive amount of loadings.
    3) Feel like a 10 years old game.

    Pros:
    1) It's free with Game Pass.

    I'm not here to talk thrash about the game, it has his own good moments, but with the actual standards of videogame industry, after all these years, claiming Goty etc, game came out with no settings, not even brightness control, 30 fps unstable, graphic is simply broken in some part,the city have tree without the slightest animation, npc with eye popping, global inexistent lighting.

But the thing that is the most annoying is that space travel or the joy of moving in space is nonexistent, was better on mass effect or even in freelancer, and they claim 30 fps is because the in game graphic.is awesome, ok graphic is not everything. In fact the game lack in so mant different ways that I would rate it a 7 BUT, then why sometimes it's good and sometimes is bad? There are litterally part of the game that lack love and cure from the developers, we are in the age of incredible visuals like Horizon, we have tears of the kingdom running on a switch, bg3 state of the art... and they come out after years and years with a game that looks so old,bad optimized and lacking of content.
    I mean real content
    Is that the killer app after all this year? Simply unacceptable    … Expand

    A video game with facial animations from two generations ago. It makes it not immersive at all.

    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.
