Starfield is like one of those cursed photos that gets worse and worse the longer you gaze at it. I played at launch and put about 250 hours into the game, but there's just so many little annoyances about the game, as well as it missing so many features, that I'll probably wait for a few years before playing again.
Exact same as you... put in a ton of hours and eventually just walked away. It was a lot of repetition. Go way over here, okay good, now go way over there.
Sorry! I'm still trying to get into the groove of things but I appreciate the feedback and will do a better job of ducking the audio in the next video. Thanks for watching still!
I could not really enjoy the game until I unlocked a certain amount of perks as well as level-locked features. My approach now, when starting a new game, is to start a manufacturing outpost that generates XP as well as cash and switch things up with kiosk missions, upgrading my ship, perk challenges as I go about gaining XP, and the smaller quests. I don't touch the more enjoyable quests. I save them for later. When I feel like I've unlocked enough perks, I then play the main quest and then start NG+. I am then free to play more like I want without being locked out of some ability and I also start playing the major quests. I think the 6/10 score is fair.
Most fun I had was found by giving myself all of the perks that either unlock a game mechanic, crafting recipes, or other editing ability right at the beginning before setting off to adventure.
Great Video, when i went to like it i was suprized you only had 66subs, i thought you would have had atleast 200k or something :D, keep up the good word hope you get more subs soon.
My biggest gripe is that every planet has 1 or 2 Points of interest. This is supposed to be the capital of the Freestar collective, yet it looks like a backwater town that has nowhere near the amount of resources needed to fight an inter-star system war with the more dominant factions. Imagine if each planet was a Skyrim sized map with all the work and effort that map had put into it. Where each planet had their main capital city and then a few settlements dotting the countryside here and there with maybe 1 or 2 smaller cities. But nah...1 city per planet. No real quality to them. You don't spend time in the cities as all your quests tell you to piss off into space and go somewhere else. Loading screen, warp, loading screen. Starfield is just all wasted potential.
Yeah, it doesn't make a ton of sense that these plants only have one point where everyone decided to live rather than having a few settlements across more habitable places. I didn't enjoy all the clicking through maps just to warp around.
That's a very common thing with main line Bethesda games. The scale of their lore far exceeds the ability of their games. Like the Freestar Collective capital being smaller than Windhelm in Skyrim, and yet they fought a galactic war? Please. One battleship could glass the entire town in a few minutes. Suspension of disbelief I suppose
@@wardengentles53 bro, this game has been legitimately unplayable on console for 8 years. I’m not saying everyone can just go out and grab a gaming pc, but at a certain point, this is on you. I don’t think it’s fair to destroy 8 YEARS worth of mod creation so Boston can finally be optimized on Xbox. I say this as a person who originally bought it on console, got the hint and then bought it on pc once i eventually bought a gaming rig.
@scroatymcboogerballs8554 What are you talking about??? I've played it just fine when it came out. Same old Bethesda jank you'd expect. But I had 0 trouble playing it since 2015. You seem to have a problem. I do not. Good luck with everything
@@wardengentles53 So you were able to get the game to work in downtown Boston on console. Funny I wasn’t. If it was just base Bethesda jank, why do you feel it was necessary to screw up millions of peoples mods to update the game then?
Dude the music! It's a good vid, but I'd have preferred to hear you talk than to hear that. 😂 It was not only repetitive, but nearly at the volume of your voice level. Never again!
I have played and loved all bethesda games since Oblivion but this game is just very bad and a torture to play in my opinion. I really tried to like it. Gave it multiple chances but gave up after ten hours. I would not get better after 10 hours, as the core gameplay with the loading screens and random maps is a dealbreaker for me. It was by far the biggest dissapointment i ever had with a game.
You surly are in the minority of people who didn't play at launch..... it was the most played singleplayer of 2023, probably now too, despite there being other "great" game releases..... people took off work to play this
Totally true, but I knew a fair bit of people were sucked into Baldur's Gate at the time (myself included), and it's difficult juggling big RPGs like that for some. People who didn't play at launch are definitely the minority, but I think there's still a good amount of people there. Thanks for watching!
I don't believe it's the "most played" single player game bro. Maybe at one time during launch. But it's damn near forgotten now. People are playing fn Fallout 4! Updating a 10 year old game got better reviews.
Thoughts on the video: 1. Background music is WAY too loud. 2. Commentary is derivative of other creators. 3. No one cares about character creation, you're literally wearing a helmet in game. Thoughts on Starfield: 1. I hate it when every enemy explodes for no reason on death.
Todd has finally come to terms with….”It Just Doesn’t Work… not at all, I mean like none… “as Todd runs off into a corner talking in tongues Flogging himself….
In my humble opinion the Creation engine should be either greatly reworked or just ditched entirely. The only thing it's good at is physics simulation of random items and moddability (if that's even a word). It sucks ass at most other things. It's terribly inefficient so many better looking games run better like Cyberpunk, RDR2, Forbidden West or Frontiers of Pandora. Data streaming is terrible so we can never get fast vehicles in densely packed areas.

Nice video. Only your background music is little to loud. New sub. :D
Thanks for watching! Audio is definitely something I need to keep working at, I appreciate the feedback there.
Agree Music is way too Loud compared to your Voice
Agreed
@@EatSplode Having it at the current volume during transitions and then fading it by like 50% whenever you start talking would be a nice touch I think

Great, real review. Refreshing to see someone without Bethesda Blinders on. Cheers to you and looking for more honest game reviews and looks.
Music is way too Loud and unnecessary
Seconded: it's a good idea to have NO background music - if your content is engaging enough it's simply not necessary. It doesn't add anything.
reupload without the music, I left the video quickly lol
Great Video, when i went to like it i was suprized you only had 66subs, i thought you would have had atleast 200k or something :D, keep up the good word hope you get more subs soon.
Thanks my man!
I watched this video with AirPods Pro and the music level seemed fine… but a notch lower wouldn’t hurt.

It's SO good that millions of players went to Fallout 4 after the update! So, pretty good, huh?
lol not on PC. Thing broke everyone’s mods. Said modders have released a de-updater in just 4 days. That’s how bad their “update” is 😂
@@scroatymcboogerballs8554 A whole bunch of us play console, and could care less about mods

Sorry man, but thanks for checking out my video. Definitely will be paying a lot more attention to audio levels on the next one.
The game is not bad, but I never expected a Bethesda game to feel so tedious.
Review ruied by background music, only got half way through!
I have subbed to your channel tho
No aliens a space game with no aliens attacking you are to fight or to meet what the fuck
Lol didnt even wait for the may update, purposely review it right before 😂
I couldn't finish it ,i tried lvl 45. Its boring, fetch quests, characters are lame, world is not believed, dont get me started on inventory
Inventory...😔😔😔 How did they mess up inventory so bad? Good lord
*I think if you've played Outer Worlds, you don't need to play Starfield At All* 🕵
I like the guns aswell, but the main story line is preety boring, I spend most of the modding the game
Waiting for E$6 hope its a better then this.

You're right, it wasn't a bad game... because it was a terrible game. This was supposed to be Todd's magnum opus
How embarrassing that bethesda and obsidian make games that are worse than and have little to no inovation from rogs that cane out decades ago
I had a giant pile of perk points at the end of this game that I wasn't interested in even spending. Starfield sucks.
That's a you problem that you didn't majority of perk I do different playstyles approach things differently
It's a widely agreed upon consensus about the game. Choices matter little to nothing in starfield. @@Truewiddy1
It's actually a Bethesda problem. They should stop making crappier versions of the same game they've been making for 20 years. @@Truewiddy1
@@Truewiddy1how many possible “approaches” did you convince yourself there is in this game lol

"I don't like Bethesda games, but I'm gonna talk about a bethesda game." yea I'll pass don't recommend this crap CZcams 😂😊
"Who looks like this?"
Fanatical SJWs.
and Bethesda developers.
Advice for Bethesda: make creation engine open source, give modders full access to your copyrights, then declare chapter 11 and disappear. 😂
In my humble opinion the Creation engine should be either greatly reworked or just ditched entirely. The only thing it's good at is physics simulation of random items and moddability (if that's even a word).
