    oh boy, now i get to enjoy… basic features that should have been there at launch?

    seems this is a recurring thing nowadays. i pray to god fable 4 doesn’t suck the big one.

    Nakey Jakey recently did a super indepth video on what is wrong with Starfield. And suffice it to say, I’ve removed the game from my wishlist. There’s betterr games to spend my money on.

      It’s almost always better to wait on Bethesda titles and buy the goty/complete edition a few years later.

        Maybe it’s time to just stop giving Bethesda money all together. Or until they start releasing games when they’re finished.

        Guess that could be said about any AAA company though

      I think people would hate it again, seeing how they hated Starfield that is also procedural.

        You’d have to change Daggerfall so that you can’t run, only fast travel, between dungeons and cities to truly mirror the Starfield experience.

      Honestly I let my Gamepass lapse and was considering re-upping it to play Starfield. And now I am for sure not going to re-up it for Starfield. Maybe I’ll visit it in a few years, but it sounds like not a great time from Nakey Jakey’s review on it.

          Just the fact that the ship combat is awful AND you don’t get to fly your ship TO other planets makes this a pass for me.

    The main feature I want is better optimization. It’s really not good still and I’ve played with the settings more than I wanted to

    When will game companies learn that they could be doing so much better if they just released their games AFTER they’re finished?

        Didn’t he also say in an interview post-launch that they still hadn’t nailed down a fun core gameplay loop until a few months before it shipped?

        C’mon Todd, what are you doing?

    I should probably pick this up when it’s on sale. I bought it on release after playing CyberPunk with ray tracing and asked for a refund after playing for 20 minutes because it just looked like garbage in comparison.

    If the modding community likes Starfield it should really help with the emptiness of space at least. I can imagine the idea of just building an entire quest line in your selected planet would be nice for avoiding mod conflicts

      I’ve heard secondhand the people working on a coop mod, after making one for Skyrim, gave up on it after deciding the game is just bad and uninteresting.

        I know that happened but I’d need to see more of a consensus from modders before I call it a wash. If modders continue to add to the game, it will likely become more appealing and the actual foundation to add mods seems pretty decent.

    I got a little excited but when I read the comment… kinda don’t care given I already finished playing sf.

    I’ll pick it up again when creation kit drops and someone actually adds something to it
