Is neat.

It's got things about it that annoy me. Not the fast travel and loading that is all insta and works perfectly for this game. There's plenty of running between POI's so no issues with travel and enjoying the scenery.

Butt the AI can be fun. It's a good FPS.

My biggest gripe- no trading and no ecnomy system really sads... just npc shops like in morrowind.

My second biggest. The survival mechanics are "light" they aren't hardcore enough. No extreme survival u go to a hot planet u just get status effects. You don't really die. Food is much like potions/skyrim...I would like a calorie-fatigue-dehydration system so I need regular sleep and eat-and-drink each game day and ur tummy gets full. They have tons of bathrooms in the game so they may as well add pooping too.

The soap dispensers r gud credits. It's a bloody shame that almost no one in the Galaxy is friendly and most of the friendlies are helpless idiots without u to blow everything up.

Overall starkind approves 7/10 with some stellar 9/10 scenery and FPS moments where the enemy uses cover, retreats and throws nades like a boss.

If it picks up I can imagine there'll be a half decent mod community. I think a real fear of death would add to the game.

That's usually how the mods go for Bethesda games. First it's the big anime tiddies, then Macho Man, then the survival modes.

I actually really like my androgynous they/them avatar in this game. Though I exclusively stick to first person.

Leaning out of cover and around corners to hit enemies is nice and immersive.

The biggest flaws of this game is trying to appeal to zoomers and a broad audience as well.


Otherwise I like it. Mods will take from fun to hellya in a decade.

Was it Bethesda or nexus? Nexus has been boot heels for a long time lol.

The pronouns are for the zoomies. ~They/Them


Honestly I think they're collecting demographic data with it too so they can sell how many They/thems get made and i think anonimize some of the personal details but keep other relevant data lists attatched. It could have been general Xbox company policy dictating it as a company wide standard in all products.

I don't believe Todd is really that into the gender genre.

slave mods, and child bride mods are all cool but removing pronouns gets you banned.

Removing pronouns as in men aren't he and women aren't she anymore? Is it a woke mod for the offended zoomers?

Didn't upset me all that much lol. What I didn't understand was that I had to press enter and then confirm to get out of the name menu. And you can accidentally confirm without selecting traits.

So what would complaining about people complaining about a game you don’t play make you?

Moral Panic Captain, maybe?

“Oh noes, someone made a mod to remove a prompt for their individual gameplay that has zero effect on a trans player’s trans character in their separate game. This is basically violence. This is genocide”

Edit: would be hilarious if Bethesda releases a new Elder Scrolls game with one of the races being a space alien wearing drag, and some modder removes it due to it killing their immersion, and modding communities are like “you can’t do that! Because this space alien is GAY! It needs to stay!”

Other examples of real world immersion killing injections that COULD be put into video games:

“What religion is your character?” (Pick between Christian, Muslim, Jewish, etc) - Maybe the player doesn’t want modern religions in their fantasy game

“What astrological sign is your character?” (pieces, Gemini, etc) - Maybe the player isn’t into astrology and doesn’t want it in their game


For either of these and many more, players could mod that out and no one would give 2 shits. But mod out modern gender ideology and everyone loses their minds

Note: it’s also not worth getting as upset over as that bald British guy did either though

2nd note: Space Sci-fi fantasy sucks, IMO. I never been into it

the internet is a mirror to the unfiltered soul of all humanity

this is how people really are

everything you see in public, is a paper thin veil we all carry so that we don't have to kill each other.

The thing I personally love about starfield the most is one of the things that the zoomers hate about it.

It's just running around scanning planets and moons and flora and fauna.

It's really annoying how nms does it and how you literally have like a total of 12 variants in nms.

Starfield lets you complete the task and every planet actually feels interesting and unique so far (even tho a lot of assets are procedural).

The PoI's are all very samey butt they literally aren't the whole point of the game and are just extra interest to the landscape. They do a good job making it feel like a frontier.

In Starfield, Neon is the man-made, spacefaring equivalent of Vegas, except it’s surrounded by a sea full of psychedelic fish rather than an arid desert. Still, it’s full of bright lights and a melting pot of interesting characters.

The amish in me says kids under 36 years old should be hard at work in the fields with their own children and not playing this game !

I haven't been there yet. Personally butt i bet I will roll my eyes at the quests and some of the NPCs there so hard that it may just induce a seizure or something. (I alrady did Las Vegas IRL)
