Being critical of a game so that future releases don't repeat the same mistakes ≠ hating.Some people have an unhealthy obsession with hating this game. Playing games you like is a lot more fun to bitching about ones you don’t like.
No, I'm acting like Bethesda is a premier AAA developer and not some mid-tier studio like they were 18 years ago. We should treat them as such.
Good god. What ship is this? I must have it.
What mods are you using? Your black levels are great!
Just using neutral LUTs to remove color filters, that's it. Other than that it's just maxed out on PC w/ Auto HDR.
"ChatGPT, list out reasons why Starfield shouldn't be GOTY"
*list out reasons*
"HA HA HA LOOK GUYS, CHATGPT IS AGAINST SATRFIELD BEING GOTY"
Game turns out to be a turd huh? Is that why everyone seems to be universally praising it outside of transparent idiots who are just trying to pick apart anything they can about it? If liking the game makes me a fanboy, then what am I gonna do about the Spider-Man 2 special edition I got preordered, seeing as how I'm obviously an Xbox fanboy right? I'd wager 95% of those spouting hyperbole about the game haven't even played it and are just hopping on a bandwagon.Fanboys: *create a gazillion threads to hype up people for Starfield*
Game turns out to be a turd and gets critized.
Fanboys: "Starfield lives rent free in folks' head."
Tell us about your not good experience with the gunplay on PC with m+kb.Those who say Starfield has good gunplay dont know what that is.
True story.
He's typing like one. Also, I don't know what game he is playing to say RD2 looks better than Starfiled on console is pushing it a little and I find the combat wonderful.Gaiff is good people. He’s no fanboy.
I can vouch for him. He’s still early in the game not realizing the game is uneven graphically and will have plenty of gorgeous locations for him to explore.
I remember being there thinking why the combat is so mediocre. Then i got some new weapons and upgraded them and now I’m having a blast.
Honestly i think they just need to up their writing and characters. All the rest is passable for a rpg.it’s already not working, their latest game is their worst rated rpg.
if they continue listening to dumb fanboys and continue releasing same dated game once every decade, they’ll hit mid 70s by next elder’s scroll
Starfield has pretty good gun play though.8 years in development and supposedly a budget in excess of $200M, so why are we still seeing posts such as "Bethesda games never had good graphics." "Bethesda games never had great gunplay." or any of those archaic defenses?
If it were 2007 with Oblivion, I'd wholeheartedly agree with and back those statements but this is 2023 and Bethesda is one of the biggest 1st-party studios backed by one of the richest corporations in the world. Why are we still holding them to the same standards as we did back in 2007? RDR2 apparently spent around 8 years in development as well and came out 5 years ago on much weaker machines so why does it look better than Starfield?
Other studios have since massively caught up with Bethesda and they're no longer the undisputed masters of living and breathing open-world games (although I'd argue they're still among the best). Can we please hold them to the same standards we hold every big devs like CD Projekt Red, Rockstar, Naughty Dog, and all the rest? No passes for shitty graphics, terrible animations or subpar combat.
First, Cyber Punk really isn't even close to Starfield other than say, the gunplay. That game plays like Mafia 1. It's a mostly linear story with a branching narrative that can result in multiple endings, surrounded by graphically intense open world. And that's about it. Since launch it hasn't really been an RPG game in the slightest outside of maybe upgrading your characters hacking abilities.8 years in development and supposedly a budget in excess of $200M, so why are we still seeing posts such as "Bethesda games never had good graphics."

I laugh every time I see someone say the game has good gunplay or worse, good AI.Those who say Starfield has good gunplay dont know what that is.
True story.
Yet Skyrim and Fallout 3/4 have much better AI.Don't forget the "Bethesda AI has never been good"
Tell us what is not good in the gunplay here:I laugh every time I see someone say the game has good gunplay

And where is it not good?This is bog standard gunplay made to look good.
Fanboy of what/who?And we should treat you as a fanboy...
Exactly. I'm at 80 hours, haven't completed any of the faction quests yet nor the main story and I'm having a blast.Game is fun as hell and has managed to hold my attention for 80 hours, that's the only metric that matters in the end.
Fortunately you can just not play Bethesda games if you choose not to. But I think it's clear that they have a lot of folks that enjoy their games for a variety of reasons. Regardless if they're "good" or "great".
Starfield is great for some, good for others. It's not a bad game by any means. I really don't understand the dramatic negative reaction it received.![]()
I've been playing only 2 games for the past month. BG3 and Starfield and I don't even own a PS5 (nor a Series X for that matter). I'm 99% a PC gamer but apparently I'm a Sony troll.Gaiff is good people. He’s no fanboy.
I can vouch for him. He’s still early in the game not realizing the game is uneven graphically and will have plenty of gorgeous locations for him to explore.

My complaints center around how poor the writing, world design, quest design, characters are. These aren't things that get fixed with time. I actually still had quite a bit of Bethesda optimism before this release, but now I don't even think those working there could produce a good ES game if their lives depended on it.Bethesda's defense will be stronger every day since it is owned by Xbox, the next Elders scrolls will have the same engine and the same errors and bugs as always and will be hyped just like Starfield, if it were multi the complaints would be much more.
Oh no doubt. I have been bitching about virtually everything in the game from its downgraded planet terrain to its awful menu driven space exploration. there is A LOT to hate, but visually and the gunplay are actually vast improvements.I've been playing only 2 games for the past month. BG3 and Starfield and I don't even own a PS5 (nor a Series X for that matter). I'm 99% a PC gamer but apparently I'm a Sony troll.
I'll keep playing because the game is indeed getting better but Bethesda really fumbles the ball at times. The ships and some interiors are among the most beautiful I've seen in a game but you also get visually questionable choices. I also still think there shouldn't be that much unused VRAM on a Series X assuming the profiling is similar to what we have on PC.
It's called starfieldTell us about your not good experience with the gunplay on PC with m+kb.
Point us what is bad about the gunplay in the 2 videos posted in the thread.It's called starfield
