Why doesn't Bethesda just release their tools instead of a game, and let the community build a game from scratch
Cause then they can't take credit for the community's work like they have skyrim
Savage but true
I'm not sure their engine is that good.
Bethesda had 10 years and their Skyrim money to upgrade their engine, they instead use that time and resources to half-ass Fallout 76.
Meanwhile, an army of fans created OpenMW.
Why don't playstation release their tools so that people can release an ambitious game rather than walking dad simulators
@@Animeop-1519What does Playstation have to do with this?
By far starfield's greatest achievement is the addition of ladders. No joke this is the first bethesda game with ladders that aren't just loading screens
It’s insane, I saw Bethesda fans actually hyped for ladders. They were trying to explain that’s really hard to code ladders, until I told them Minecraft did it on a browser 15 years ago
And ladders animation such slow so loadings still would be better
With the ladders taking about 7 years to traverse.. might've been better to just not.
Having to click to use them is somewhat of a joke to start out with.. and.. well -- you can use your jump pack to leap between floors on your ship. Quite a lot faster.
@@Shiggy_ It's honestly mind boggling how out of touch rabid Bethesda fans are. It's like they have NEVER picked up any other games, since 2008, that weren't Bethesda releases. I like how they excuse the loading screens, but will screech rant about how ambitious Starfield is and how all objects in the game have permanence even when you're on a different planet... Which doesn't make much sense on, why every time you go through a doorway, you have to go through a 2-5 second loading screen. You'd think if every single thing is generated, no matter where you are in the game, that there would be less to no loading screens cause everything is already loaded. 🤔
Lol the ladders, then we'll get vehicles in about fallout 6.
The funny thing is that reducing the number of loading screen is fully in their power. Skyrim is basically the same as Starfield with that aspect, and a modder removed vast majority of them. It just means they couldn't be bothered with it.
Or that they limited themselves in order to make the game playable on dated hardware. Most of the loading screens seem to be completely cosmetic on Xbox, the loading screen sometimes takes a moment to actually pop up but you can catch a glimpse of the fully loaded and rendered cell that it's supposedly loading before it claims to be loading anything.
@@GremlinSciencesNa, don't give them the benefit of the doubt. They didn't do this to help older systems. They did this because they wanted to use the same engine they've been using for decades. They're just trying to milk it for all it's worth and they need these loading screens to allow it to run properly. All those games shown work on older hardware, too. Cyberpunk is the only game that is going to really TAX a system, even modern systems.
I'm not.@@erikholum4772 The fact of the matter is that every time the plain-black loading screen comes up, the area that's supposed to be loading is _already_ loaded before the screen even comes up on Xbox.
You go look at the system requirements and the PC requirements are low enough that it should be able to run on Xbox One, but even though it's better optimized on Xbox you still need to use cloud gaming to play unless you're on a Series system.
Why is there this discrepancy? Because the PC minimum requirements are the same as what Steam shows most players are still using. They built the game to be playable on those PCs, even though the actual system requirements are much higher.
It helps to artificially lengthen the game. Every bit counts, even slower page transitions between menus and character and skiils
I love listening to gamers talk about game development
Back in Daggerfall you needed a specific day of the year, in game, to successfully summon a Daedric Prince, otherwise you needed expensive reagents and it could still go horribly wrong.
In Starfield there isn’t even a calendar.
There aren’t even proper maps for intricate navigation throughout cities for eg… HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE A PROPER MAP IN A SPACE GAME…CMON
@@Giveitaresssstt Probably because Emil Pagliarulo is the lead designer and told his people not to worry about it because modders will do all the work fixing the game.
holy shit you’re right, we have no fucking calendar
Probably because different planets with different rotation/orbital periods and time dilation as you approach the speed of light and distance, but you could also do galactic standard time and also space magic so who cares.
@@johnjohn5187true lmao
Star field is so ahead of it’s time it went back in time
truly starborn expirience 👍
Ah yes !! A true starfield experience ahah 😂
you'll just have to load to find out
Todd and his crew broke the speed of light barrier, and this is the result. From being rediculed cause he was in the chessclub to winning the nobel prize of physics because of his discovery and proof of faster than light travel by using a 50 year old game engine. What a journey, and what a man. The next elder scrolls game will probably unify quantum mechanics and relativity, or prove the existence of aliens or something.
Yea Bethesda is so talented that they have a development overflow problem
I think the most insulting thing is how poor it runs despite looking this dated 😅
fact
It doesn’t run poorly you just have an outdated system according to Todd Howard. What a fucking joke lmao
And the lack of texture quality, FOV, brightness and gamma settings and any kind of HDR on PC is also baffling.
Played alot of shitty games since 2004 but this is shittiest game i ever played in my life like its so bad uhh shouldn’t even buy this on a 90% discount offer
RDR2 on Low settings looks better than Starfield on High.... I speak from experience.
What's bad is that even in Skyrim, the guards would at least react to your shouting, and you could swim underwater. The whole town would come for you if you killed a chicken. I stopped playing SF at 56 hours and I'm not sure I'll pick it back up. I started a new BG3 playthrough till the new Cyberpunk DLC drops.
I stopped playing SF at 13 minutes and refunded it. 😂

The most savage thing that ~70% of players thinks that it's completely fine for AAA studio to release game of this quality in year of 2023. Game industry is ruined by brain dead consumers and corporations greed.
Stop saying you're a brain dead consumer. Be kind to yourself.
they really are 'consumers', they'll just consume what ever is given to them without question
I think starfield is great 🤷♂️. Bought a few copies to vote with my wallet
U might be talking with bots mate
@@radiantveggies9348 yeah, you are the part of the problem.
We all know the reason Bethesda doesn't want to give up the creation engine is because no-one would play their games past release if they couldn't mod them.
Based
meh. They did the same thing when skyrim special edition come out
No, it's because they're lazy, talentless, and greedy.
Why not instead of "updating" the current engine and just calling it Creation Engine 2, just make an actual Creation Engine 2 that's better with loading new assets so it doesn't rely on loading screens every few steps.
I mean, they probably could have done a new and more modern engine that could load all of these cells at once and with the same modding capabilities, but why bother right.
It is even crazier to think that GTA 4 was _released_ in 2008. They spent years on it.
Which means Bethesda has no excuse to perform so badly in the examples given here, because we’ve had the technology for almost two decades, and they’ve had about a decade to implement and make changes.
gta 4 still runs like ass on pc
@@dotei6369While true its an easy fix.
@@dotei6369true but they improve with gta v and rdr2 their is improvement instead backwards
Drop the vulkan wrapped and in about 3 mins, it runs at 120fps.
@dotei6369
The thing that really get me about all the loading screens in Starfield is that they're suppose to front load all the assets so nothing else needs to be loaded as long as you stay in the game cell, however, with Starfield you _need_ a SSD specifically because the game is constantly loading assets real time. Like WTF are all the loading screens for if they're not being used to actually load anything?
What even more baffling is that Bethesda already figured this out because they've been using the same game engine for almost two decades and in all of their previous games they figured out what the loading screens were for. How do you use the same game engine for 2 decades then forget how to make it work?
Yeah I noticed that most games I play off my SSD, the light on my SSD doesn't constantly flash, and I think it flashes when it's transferring data back and forth. But when I play starfield, my SSD flashes the whole time. Which means you have to constantly load every single asset in every new map after every loading screen.
The absolute delusion of Todd Howard calling Stardield a "next-gen PC game" that you "might have to upgrade your PC" for. The guy is either permanently high or he truly lives in a fantasy world.
Not even "might", you will HAVE to upgrade your PC.
Todd's high on Stardust!
He is a gaming politician. He puts more effort on his craft to lie than the game itself
He sure can’t sleep with himself knowing he says those things.. even him can’t believe it. Typical corporate deception from the higher ups .. nothing but lies. Corporate fkcus.
He also said the ARC a770 couldn't play it when it runs much better than my 3060ti because it needs 16gb and 8gb is stupid.
RDR2 is unmatched when it comes to game physics , how far they went into details in this game is insane , for example if you shoot an animal over time the body will rot and if u go to the same place in few ingame days there will be bones on the ground .
That is pretty cool
There will even be scavengers eating the cadaver during that time. Sometimes I wonder how RDR2 was even possible to make. It's arguably still the most next-gen game and it came out 5 years ago. I shudder to think what GTA 6 will be like in terms of detail.
Yep and 100 % it is compared to the rest of the open world RPGs @@amysteriousviewer3772
Well, RDR2 took a shit ton of time to make as well. And in terms of graphics I would say cp2077 is the most next-gen experience one can get right now.@@amysteriousviewer3772
RDR2 was made possible by sacrificing player hard drives to long-forgotten deities.@@amysteriousviewer3772 Everyone seems to have forgotten, but that game required a whopping 250GB of solid-state storage originally.
I'm glad there are some reasonable parts of the internet that can see how average Starfield is - I'm pissed at how many people defend it as an “amazing” game. It is 5/10 and Bethesda should do much better. Finally get a new engine.
Yeah. And let`s talk about game journalists and CZcamsrs rated Starfail a 9/10 or a 10/10....
It's an objectively bad game. Opinions don't even come into it. It's literally just bad in many, many ways.
I'm reminded that Half Life 2 is still more advanced than many AAA games.
Oh right, its incredible that half life is still hight up in the list afther so many years
7 Years in development, with Bethesda experience.
They took 7years to make thrash games like armoured core 6 goes to show lazy fromshit dogs doing nothing while starfield is a masterpiece.If u are a begger who doesn’t have modern hardware don’t open your mouth n go clean toilet n earn money
todd said 8
7 years just for another same Bethesda type of game is such a waste of time, they could've made 2 completely different games in that time frame
You’re comparing a sandbox game to an RPG, that’s just a stupid comparaison that could been made for many good games
@@Lil.Lon3LyWhat are you on ? Bethesda make RPG, why would they stop make RPG that are loved by everyone ?
For a pre-alpha its decent, cant wait for the release in 5-6 years!
Ultra-Legendary Edition in 6 years from now, Extra-Legendary-Mega Edition in 12 years from now, things planned as usual by daddy Todd Clownard... i mean Howard.
You say that, but it still has bugs from Fallout 2...
😅
but we want TES 6
@@xttsntynah bruh, THE CENTURY EDITION! THATS WHAT WE NEED!
I would trade the ability to interact with "every" object for decent AI and less loading screens in a heartbeat
I didn't because I was taking away the particularities of the game, just to make it more similar to the others, even if they have better details or better Ai, they would never be a Bethesda rpg or the opposite,I prefer that updates and mods fix this with the time, as happened in Skyrim and Fallout.
@@creatvice5303I rather buy a game that is fun without having to much about with random mods to fix it.
Based on other games it shouldn't even have to be a trade-off
This just shows that its not an issue of greed or laziness. This is what they produce after like 10 years of dev time and a monstrous budget. They simply can't design a game outside this horrible Bethesda ES loop.
That's because they don't want to take risks. If they design something even worse its money down the drain, like this at least they know people will play it. It's not about creating a good game, it's all a money making product.
@@emptybruh now they only can create worse or more worse.
@@emptybruhthey are the only one taking risks in last 60years there has been 1 proper space game star citizen which is still in beta n if making space games open world are so easy every devs would make it but even in coming 10year there won’t be any space game so yeah get some brains before talking thrash.Bethesda doesn’t take risk said by a joker in the comments
Current No Mans Sky is leagues better than Starfield. You obviously don't know how games work and are just spoon feed Bethesda fanboy and that's fine, but don't come to me and try to argue something that simply isn't true. Go enjoy your Walmart Skyrim in space and try yo justify why you wasted 70 bucks.@@ttghhgg1918
@@ttghhgg1918 Hahahaha the only risk with Bethesuckda is whether or not you’ll be able to finish the game before it breaks. Where’s the risk in spending *12 years* releasing the same game while morons seal clap to buy the same game for the sixth time on a new console because Bethesuckda suck and can’t release a single game that isn’t a broken boring mess? And even after 12 years and versions on everything from Switch to Amazon Alexa, Skyrim is still an outdated unplayable boring buggy mess, just like it was in 2011.
And Star Citizen is pay to win trash. At least Elite Dangerous wasn’t a garbage shallow experience.
"Truly the game that just works"
Technically.. I've had none to very few bugs with the game.. had one of which I remember - got stuck between a table and the ceiling on my ship. Could fix by sitting on a chair (or fast travel, I suppose).
Nothing game breaking, not a single crash, maxed graphics, 5120x1440, no framerate issues.
Game most definitely has issues - such as it being a loading screen simulator, and kind of just being dull overall, not to forget all the bits this video shows.
And not to forget that there doesn't seem to be anywhere where you're not really allowed to go. Don't even have to break into homes.. just walk in and go to wherever in there - NPCs don't mind.
But, least for me.. it just works.
here's the thing. the phrase "it just works" can be interpreted 2 ways. "it just WORKS" or "it JUST works". Todd's cadence was the former, his meaning was the latter.
It’s actually insane, because Bethesda’s own games look, feel and “just work” much better (Skyrim, Fallout 4). It’s not that they can’t make mechanically decent game, they just didn’t bother with Starfield. Yet, they call it things like “great achievement” and “next-gen game”, it’s madness...
What makes me impressed is how Asmon gets surprised by every single game that appears, because he never played any.
Thats why in my opinion, you should take his reviews and opinion with a grain of salt, but starfield is still bad.
The stuff being nocked around and the explosions in the water.... that was in Fallout 4. What the hell happened, did they lose the code for that somewhere? Wtf? I remember half deadening myself by shooting an explosive combat shotgun in the water in FO4.
water in general seems to have been neglected. You can't dive either
Maybe they really made starfield from scratch, like one of those school projects your teach tells you not to copy from past years
There are so much stuff that was in F4, but for some reason isnt in Starfield, and i think its due to 1 thing. Its a rushed and unfinished game. Apparently they had struggles with it even running properly in early 2023, and have spent most of their energy on optimizing it. it runs great on my 1080, so it worked. but the lack of details and loading screns are insane, they didnt even hide the grav drive loading screen.
@@yunfanji i suspect something didn't work with the procedual generation and they just scrapped water all together
You can knock stuff around in Starfield too. You just can’t knock chairs around because you can actually sit in them in Starfield. It’s the same reason you couldn’t knock chairs around in every other BGS RPG.
i love how starfield is just a re-skin of fallout 4 with just space added truly one of the games of the year
dont forget... they downgraded almost everything compared to fo4- even the melee combat
@@user-ef8bf5xk9byeah I noticed that too. While I’m enjoying my time with Starfield I can’t deny how much better Fallout 4 is. It had a ton more detail than this lmao. And I don’t see a lot of people talking about this, but why did they remove the ability to swim underwater? That used to be a normal thing you could in their games, dating back all the way to Oblivion! Buts it’s not here…all the little details that used to be standard in Bethesda titles are just absent. Makes the game look and feel lot more cheap. GOTY this is not. I’m honestly looking back at that 7/10 IGN review score and thinking that maybe it wasn’t as bad as people made it out to be lol. Maybe even a little generous.
Don’t even put that shitty game in the same sentence as fallout 4. This game is way more boring and puts you to sleep. Fallout is a lot more interesting and entertaining and offers a lot more immersion.
@@christianisaac9327they are both in the same category.
@christianisaac9327 and fallout 4 is a worse game than fallout 3/NV unfortunately. The gunplay is the only improvement from 3-4 but bethesda have just been stuck in their ways and taking steps backwards with every release. Its so sad to see.
If they're planning on making The Elder Scrolls VI with this engine, I think they have a massive problem on their hands.
I've been replaying Red Dead 2 recently, and that game is technically so far ahead of starfield, and it's 5 years old.
Rdr2 is the Most realistic Game ever
GTA4 was ahead of it's time with world detail and NPC AI.
I loved the videos of the rag doll engine they were using. There was an American Football game that used it as well and it was amazing to watch.
say that all the time
not at all... i remember laughing at some of the shit back then... nowadays shitleA companies are just shitting out disaster after disaster
@@user-ef8bf5xk9b GTA 4 devs went beyond everything that was available simulation wise at the time with their new engine.
GTA NPCs have been reacting to gunfire and weapons being aimed at them as far back as the third game
Folks defend this game like it's their own child or something. Closest these people will ever get I suppose
And people like you hate watch the game instead of going and playing something you enjoy, you are kinda like a cuck in a way
you didnt have to do them like that
Bro chill they'll die
Kek!
once bethesda entered their confort zone with morrowind they refused to leave that engine, and even with all the upgrades its limitations are more than obvious (creating functional vehicles and ladders is still insanely hard, and this is a thing since morrowind days)
The problem with Starfield is similar to the problems that the original (now classic) GTA series like III, Vice City and San Andreas had - their engine (Renderware) couldn't handle interiors properly, so only part of the map could be loaded at a time, and everything else was loaded as soon as the player entered a special marker, that initiated a teleportation, that took the player to an interior, that was (usually) underground. But even then, Rockstar was clever enough not to use any loading screens, everything was done instantly, and those were the days when people didn't even know about SSDs, because it was still a hard disks era.
Starfield suffers from the same condition, it's just that the interiors are too big in comparison to the buildings, making them unlikely to fit in, and so - instead - you get.... a loading screen, which causes the game to load the data once again. Often without getting rid of the data from the previous locations, so that the amount of memory required increases in relation to the data left in the previous location (which is why sometimes the game has a tragic fps drop, but as soon as it catches up with the loaded data, it starts running smoothly).
The interiors and exteriors and objects in starfied are many orders greater than these other games. The loading screen doesn't need to be there in most cases, for without it it would load like the gta 5 etc.
Starfield is really setting new standards for the industry !
new lows for sure!!
Truly one of the standards of all time!
In last 60years this is the only proper space game ofc they set standards u would see rockturd or fromshit even trying to make a space game as they know it’s impossible

@@accelerator8558 All you need to surpass HF2 animations is a bit more bones for motion capture and some more detailed textures, not even mentioning nowadays techniques like photogrammetry or PBR materials. All modern games seems to use them and if they are focused on few characters there are damn good - just look at Cyberpunk's one.
Alyx works on Source 2 engine and faces works because they are slightly stylized nad you never see them in full light, so your brain does not focus on details.
i recently played half life 2 for the first time, and that game, 2004 btw, was so much more of a fleshed out and immersive/enjoyable experience than starfield could've ever hoped to be.

It's a great game! All you have to do is spend 10,000 hours modding it into an entirely new game. Can't wait for ES6 👍
The dated technology is a minor thing at first but in a game where you could easily spend over 100 hours on one character it becomes a much larger issue. Not to mention the PC requirements and Console performance. For a game where you can’t open doors.
The weird thing is even Fallout 4 had better water animations than starfield...
Starfield feels like 5 steps forward, 5 steps back. they improved alot over FO4 but then they completely removed things that were previously present.

The number of objects on screen in Starfield would cause the console to melt into a puddle. They made different choices on what the players were after, or what audience they were after.

Let's be honest here. If any other studio had released a game like Starfield, they would have been obliterated to oblivion.
Imho, Bethesda doesn't get enough shit thrown at them and Starfield is a joke of a game.
Since starfield came out, i decided it was finally time to buy No Man's sky. Had a blast, explored more than 50 planets and nearly a dozen or more systems of which a lot of them i renamed because nobody had discovered them, and as long as i stay within a system not a single loading screen will disturb your immersion, unless you choose to fast travel with a portal, which is understandable imo. Im 150 hours in and just discovered another galaxy, you can make bases underground, underwater, in the sky, one hell of a freedom game imo. If anything the game would be perfect with the addition of rng loot weapons of different qualities n stats, dungeons and minibosses/bosses.
No Man's Sky literally has 18 quintillion planets.. you have a ways to go before you see them all...LOL
the problem isn't even the quality. the problem is, they sell a game like that for a high price. if the game is crap the price should be low. they sell at high prices just because its a Bethesda game.
Not to mention some ridiculous percentage of the game was handled by foreign game studios, aka Cheap Developers 😂❤
So like, the need to set the price at $70 at launch is even less justified
@@Macheako every game is handled by foreign game studios. Look at Elden Ring's and RDR2's credits. Half of the workers are outsourced from foreign countries.

The original video maker missed opportunities to compare starfield to older bethesda games. For example, when you jump off a cliff in MFING SKYRIM your body ragdolls unlike starfield.
Starfield is a game made for 360 but released on new Gen hardware
They're not comparing it with GTA5 because GTA4 was a little bit more realistic and focused on details. There are quite a few things they missed to include again in GTA5 that GTA4 handled better
Starfield would look just as stupid if compared to GTA v. Cyberpunk looked stupid when people compared with V and cyberpunk was way better than starfield
A great selection of comparisons:
>game made several years ago
>game running on inferior hardware
>game also known for lacking polish
>combination of the three.
GTA IV was waaaaaay ahead of its time. Like I know people say this for a lot of classic games but GTA IV physics and AI is actually better than new AAA open world games.
i mean so did bethesda but they got forced to dumb theirs down because it was to good
You know its embarrassing when, cyberpunk 2077, a game that had this similar fate, is kicking starfields butt lol 😂
Aw man, CP is good. This is bad.
@camraid9 i know its been 7 month but i want to say that out of context, your comment sound really illegal
The thing really annoys me is how lifeless the wors feels. At first glance there are lots of people walking around but actually everyone is just stuck in one place. Go back to previous generations of elder scrolls games and people acted like people. They had routines and went about their day and went home and to work and some visited other towns. I starfield they just stand in there shop in a fixed position for eternity. I had a quest with an option to steal something but the person never moves so you can sneak in at night or wait for them to be busy and break in.
Just wait until the real developers of Starfield get their hands on the dev tools. I’m sure the game will get better after 2 years and 100 mods later
It won’t, the old engine is still in the way, can’t get rid of the loading screens atleast, can’t have massive open world
@@puddingsimon2626are you sure they cant get rid of the loading screens? I was hoping there would be a ship landing/takeoff mod.
@@puddingsimon2626I'd imagine you might be able to get rid of a few loading screens - such as the random planet buildings and the world.
Though, it might just break the AI/dungeon setting/scripts and what not.
The caves with 2 trash mobs and 5 things to mine.
the engine isnt old. Starfield is ran off of Creation Engine 2 which is brand new. do your research PS nerd@@puddingsimon2626
@@carontorliak2760I'm pretty sure it's possible since modders made a mod called "open cities" for Skyrim that removed the loading screens for entering cities by opening huge city gates directly. But it severely impacted CPU performance since game had to load outside world and "inside world" (city holds) both at once. But it was made years ago and obviously older engine. So there's still hope.
If only Bethesda used an actual game engine for once, and hired people that actually knew how to use it.
people who blame the engine actually knows nothing about games...
@@Volfur2251 If you can't recognize that many of the limitations on Starfield boil down to hard limitations set with their engine, there is no saving you.
@@Volfur2251 While I do agree with you on that, it's kinda the only thing fanboys will let people talk about. They get really defensive if you mention that Bethesda is rather lazy when it comes to making games and if you dare to mention how a good majority of the stuff promised to us was revealed to be a lie they will get even madder and say things like "So what? NMS lied and that game is still worse." or my new favorite "I bet you're a CoD fanboy that's upset so go and back to CoD." which is weird and I really don't understand that one at all
@@Volfur2251Tell that to all the developers who hate using the Frostbite engine..
@@Volfur2251 Right.. That's why every single one of their games have the exact same problems and limitations.
But you seem to be an expert, so tell us why that is. I'm listening. I'm sure I'll find the answer to be riveting.
Whats disappointing is that we probably wont ever see the team tweak this stuff to be better. The modders will do it for them.
Meanwhile Todd: You may need to upgrade your PC.,
You mean my PC that can run RDR2.
In some aspects the attention to detail and interactivity is a step back from previous games, nevermind exploration which is the biggest offender of the game.
I remember playing a Harry Potter game back in the day on the ps2 and it had a loading screen like every 5 steps it was super annoying. I didn't think that would be a problem now especially since even consoles started using an ssd.
I'm pretty sure they're just an annoying cosmetic effect for most players, playing on Series X there are times where the loading screen is late to pop up, and the few frames before it does has always revealed the area to already be fully loaded and rendered, even fully populated.
I imagine they would have made the choice to preserve the pride of PC players so a budget PC didn't seem to play any worse than a console. Or they added it in anticipation of mods taking a few extra moments to load in.
Bethesda is still stuck into the same practices as if it's still early 2000's and with no signs of ever evolving. If you dissect the visual presentation, it's still the same game as morrowind was 20 years ago.
By now, they're on an even worse spot than Ubisoft when it comes to making the exact same game with a different coat of paint. At least Ubisoft release their games faster and can use time as an excuse.
I remember that the PS2 version of "Chamber Of Secrets" actually let you explore the entirety of the Hogwarts Grounds outside during the day both on foot and on your broom. The other versions turned the grounds into nothing more than individual warping hubspots where you literally couldn't free-roam anywhere else. I'd gladly take more load times on the PS2 if it means more seamless freedom.
Why make good games when you have a fanbase that will mindlessly buy anything you put out, and a modding base that will win your game awards.
Bethesda telling us to upgrade our pcs while their game engine is so fucking old
Rememeber this is a triple A game that was charging 70-100 bucks
I love how selective the community is when it comes to bug criticism. Its absolutely forgiven if its a bethesda game because its Bethesda. "Oh this generation has been ruined by Crowbcat" 😂
I’m still waiting for his video.
I don't think it's forgiven it's just expected, I mean even skyrim and fallout still has bugs :P
@@xman5393Even elden ring had game breaking bugs on release. It's the sheer lack of creativity or will to innovate that pisses me off. The game could've been released in 2012 and no one would think it's innovative. It's purely a cashgrab
Cyberpunk doesnt even have a loading screen when you go to your house, you just take the elevator and open the door to your flat
7 years of development for this, not including its conceptualization back in the 90s.
I'm actually surprised that they didn't even show Skyrim for comparison, it was so much better in some other game details too.
Can't wait for the modders to add everything those other games have that Starfield doesn't
Disappointing that there is no physics on some of the objects like chairs etc. Bethesda actually have highly interactive physics on a good number of items in the game that you can move yourself.
"It gets better after 20 hrs, trust me bro, just play the game, please bro..."
If the game doesn't hook me in the very first hour, it ain't worth a goddamn second of my time.
And the Award for most non Existent Ai in Video Games Goes Too... Starfield!.
8 years developing the game and games from 8 years ago are better in graphics and physics. And you also need a graphics card from within 8 years.
this just means we need those pc upgrades from the future that's what the head man said in the interview I'm sure we get all the next gen stuff when we have future hardware in like 5 years time
Starfield feels like a devmode game that is still being developed.
The Witcher 3 which was released almost 10 years ago, doesn't has that many loading screen than Starfield has
We'll get mods for water splashes, for NPCs to react differently when you point a gun at them etc...but I don't think we'll ever get destructible objects :(
@@user-ef8bf5xk9b Tell that to all the mods that show up every hour
There's a destructible objects mod in Skyrim, so there definitely will be here if someone tried
0:29 is EXCALTY what i said when I saw the falls for first time XD
They should used the original Resident Evil for the loading, even that had a door animation and it came out in 2002
You beat me to it with referencing resident evil and the doors
@@quinnmichaelson6793 That door is absolutely classic!
wasn't it 1997?
@@joaquinsandoval5370 It might be but I dont think ao
@@mbmanra Yeah, March 22 1996
0:47 what's even more crazy is that The Elder Scrolls games have physics on items since Oblivion in 2006, 17 years ago.
Also not having level streaming in 2023 but separated map with a loading screen is so outdated.
I could live with all of these things if I was getting something in return...some amazingly compelling gameplay or systems...perhaps the entire universe is simulated and allows for all kinds of interesting emergent encounters and behaviour, maybe the AI is so advanced that every encounter is super rich and engaging. Instead, *everything* is mediocre or dragged down by the surrounding mediocre...the story, which I personally found conceptually interesting...well, it's bogged down by the same old "fast travel here and talk to x, then fast travel here and talk to y...do it another 100 times and you've completed the main story". I get that we have differing tastes - I assume that the fans of the game really like space games and are kinda happy to set their sights a little lower as long as the space itch is scratched. I kinda feel the same way about fantasy movies - but then, they only last a few hours.
So many of the quests I tried were shockingly dull, and the characters you met during them also. Some dialogue was so unintentionally funny though, so yay?
This is what happens when you go for quantity over quality...
This game is a menu/Loading screen simulator just like Anthem
Technically they're not wrong... this game is next gen s*** :P
The best things about StarField are those side-eyes, I never feel so judged b4 by NPC
People with 4090's & 13900k's: "performace sucks"
Todd Howard: sounds like you need to upgrade your PC.
I find the funniest thing to be that in 10 years the modding community will add all other game features to starfield in a neat on click downlad and install click and play mod pack.
Explain to me how you're going to mod a cell into the world so you can just walk Into it without crashing?
@@casuallyretarded5161 Open Cities for Oblivion was a thing... and Open Cities for Skyrim was a thing...
@@casuallyretarded5161 Skyrim had a mod that removed some door loading screens and that was ages ago.
@@casuallyretarded5161have you seen skyrims open cities mod?
You can do that for cities in skyrim there are two different mods for that and it was thought impossible in the past, in time we'll have it in starfield for interiors and more.@@casuallyretarded5161
Starfield is the only Bethesda game that I haven't bought so far, and don't think I ever will. There is absolutely nothing that attracts me to it.
You can start from the Dilapidated Temple in Sekiro all the way to the very edge of both the Sunken Valley and Ashina depths without a single loading screen. And if you go down the poison river below the valley that had all the statues and monkeys, you could essentially go through both major areas completely seamlessly. Not an open world game as vast as ER or even the relatively smaller Dark Souls games. But it's certainly just as interconnected and even better-optimized.
I remember swimming in Far Cry 1 and thinking "wow this is almost exactly like swimming at the beach!"
Skyrim had better physics with objects. I remember throwing fireballs and stuff flying everywhere
skyrim physics have nothing on starfield tho...
@@Volfur2251 yeahsure
@@Volfur2251cope and seethe 😂😂😂
I thought because an SSD was a requirement for Starfield that would mean seamless loading.
Turns out I was wrong. They can't even get something working that has been working for a decade now.
God, imagine those loading times on an HDD. 30+ seconds just to enter a damn building.
@@amysteriousviewer3772nah the game lagged while just playing, aiming was choppy af on a hdd, try it yourself, its embarrasimg
I surprised they didn't compare door loading screen from resident evil 2, because even they make it better.
In MIFIA 2, npc cop can actually catch you speeding
I'm currently playing a 12 yr old MMO where you can knock around and destroy stuff in your base and the open world. This game was developed for the ps3. And somehow you cannot do this in Starfield. Crazy.
What MMO?
World of warcraft back from 2003 hardly had any loading screen except for Dungeons & Moving in between continent. World was massive for it's time.
0:42 concidering this is on "Switch", the gaming äquivalent of a potato its waaay more crazyy then it looks.
I guess my DS would be a single potato seed then.
They release a game with alot of missing features, so that modders have something to do
Star"It just works"field™
Well, the developers didn't lie, they developed the game for 7 years, and here is what a 7-year-old game looks like😂
I don't think anybody noticed that you can complete CP77 from start to finish without a single loading screen... at all lol.
can’t believe they didn’t show BotW or TotK to show the cliff falling part. Link has the best rag dolls 😂
The loading screen is perhaps the most insulting to watch, every single game nowadays nails it down with no loading times and no waiting times. I mean how hard it is to do like resident evil 4 remake did. Just load the geometry of all the areas around the area the player is, then when the area-transitioning door is opened, "unload" the areas that are no longer attached to the previous level and load the next connected areas.
