- Since Starfield released there has been a treasure trove of terrible hot takes on the game. From people asking why they can't explore gas giant, to complaints about optional pronouns. Before I post my eventual Starfield review, lets take a look at some of The WORST Starfield Hot Takes.

You're in the club and Todd Howard comes up to your girl and asks for her pronouns. What do you do?
Ditch my girl and ask him to marry me
Where's the Diablo I video lil n*gga
My pronouns are attack/helicopter
It's just/works
I’m a mechanic
I'm offended about the Starfield pronoun situation, I made my character to look like Michael Jackson, and the only pronouns avaliable were he/him and not he/hee
Now that was funny
That joke deserves and "Uuuh!"
got me good
Well played sir
Why isn't this the best liked comment? :p
The only thing I wish they added was the ability to "land" on/in these gas giants, sun's, black holes; but it's just a cutscene of your ship exploding 😂
Well you cant do that cause a gas giant is a big ball of fire and a black hole is a black hole
@@Tritonofclansakaia black man’s hole
that's exactly what i was thinking lmaoo
@Tritonofclansakai did you not get the joke? Or why I used quotation marks? 😅🤭
@@Tritonofclansakai it's a big ball of gas.
You refunded Starfield for pronouns. I refunded Starfield because its boring. We are not the same
I refunded starfield because it didn't even work out the box for me,
They refunded it for pronouns. You refunded it because it’s boring. I refunded it because it’s bad. We are not the same
I didn't even buy it, because it's modern bethesda game. We are not the same.
I didn't even buy it. We are not the same.
Me who can't refund because I bought it on a fucking Xbox
The game is absolutely mediocre at best
As a starfield player who intends to finish the game and think Sam Hyde has the best review I agree.
Mid, fun for the repeatable quests for me but fully mid, absolutely dog water drinking intern redditor level writing.
@@spacecowboy1438Sam Hyde the nazi ?
@@spacecowboy1438 I mean, their dialog has always been a meme. I think what made FO4 irritating compared to other BGS titles, and made this game intolderable at times, is the way the game has gotten more realistic looking and the voice actors are better. Like, having such realistic graphics and decent actors have lines that are coded to be played at the most inoportune moments, ruining pacing, and rarely matching facial animations that are either pretty good in some cases, or god awful in others. Theres just a level of inconsistency that makes the game feel like it's all over the place. I am almost done and decided to do UC Vanguard as the last content I have to wrap up - and am blown away that they had this awesome idea for mech war and xenoweapons - even making the god damned meh models and worlds evestated by all out war.... But it all happened before the game started............... Instead we get a god damned scavenger hunt that acts as if it wasn't obvious what the starborn are, especially after people saying "NG+ is tied to story" which completely spelled it all out the second I saw the Emissary's ship.. I'm going to stop.... I still have more to play.
I fucked up by playing Phantom Liberty first lol, but at least Isaved BG3 for when I'm done with Starfield
yes
Your entire life is mediocre at best
You gotta admit though it would be hilarious to watch your ship disintergrate as it enters a gas giant's upper atmosphere
Or flopping around in a public fountain while wearing a space suit until you explore a wild planet and you just drown in a lake looking for loot.
which is exactly why you should be able to do it
Wow that actually would have been so good haha. Another missed opportunity. it’s such a small component of the game (letting the player control the ship and other vehicles) but it takes away so much from the over all experience. smh
That actually woudlnt happen, the gravity at the surface of a gas giant is not that high
its better to write it as a point to push his dumass woke agenda then to see and say the obvious, litrly everyone says you shuld be able to enter a planet even if it kills you.
I think you should be able to approach a star, black hole, or gas giant and be realistically annihilated. It would be a lot funnier to see the tweet of a man who doesn't understand why his ship was turned into a singularity vs someone complaining that they can't approach the celestial body in the first place.
In Ultima 2 (very old game now!), you could fly your ship into the sun if you entered its coordinates. It was game over if you did!
For the gas giant I'd say a good thing to show would be the sound of a can being crushed on a black screen, the black hole would just be a black screen, and a little animation from far-off where your ship is just a tiny speck just a bug zappering itself into the sun would be funny
Lol I miss when games let your stupidity impulses straight up kill you. So fun
Hope mods do that
Just another one of so many things I'm sure they left to the modding community. I hope the modders get half the revenue of Starfield at this point.
You lost me when you called this game "polished."
Polished as for bethesda's standard, there should be a little air quote gesture :)
@@Bapa_nada I mean, he personally only had 4 glitches happen. And compared to Skyrims RAM leak issues, FO3's many issues, FO4's MANY glitches and...*barf* FO76...everything is polished. xD
@neros_soren Yeah and I'd rather be stuck playing skyrim five times over that's how boring Starfield was
@@trippymlgjunkrat5749 Okay. Dunno how this relates to anything i this thread, but okay.
"Hey, compared to the named games, Starfield is actually quite polished"
You: "Gonna play all those other games!"
It's almost like some people are incapable of actually understanding simple sentences on YT.
@@trippymlgjunkrat5749sounds like a skill issue
The biggest hot take I've heard for starfield is that its a good game
"Theres so much to do!"
"The companions are more fleshed out than the Mass Effect Series"
I know that this is the internet least favorite sentence but....
It is HIS opinion.
@@calciumnugget4114 And them saying thats a hot take is an opinion too, so youre saying his opinion matters more?
this was his initial impression, which many other did share at the time as well. In his later video he did say it was a disappointment while he did like playing it a bit.
"it wasn't as bad as fallout 76" is alot like saying "they didn't shit directly into my mouth this time"
Best comment ever.
Only on my face this time! :D
It was just a cleavland steamer, far from that bad
I like it more than Fallout 4.
Act Man is now Shill Man. Such a shame.
Good bye old friend.
Starfield: "YOU CAN'T LAND ON GAS GIANTS!!!!!"
The entire Warframe community:
"sounds like a skill issue ngl."
The ship clearly lacks an Ordis.
That´s incorrect since it would imply that we have skill. And as stated by our lord and drunk saviour BNP we can´t event connect more then two points.
@@robertovidiuspinu3314 we don’t need skill we have Mastery Ranks. :)
In Warframe we land on what's basically a mining platform for gases and ngl that would be kinda sick to see something similar in starfield
@@zacgarcia9082 it’s pretty much Cloud City from Star Wars. Would be a cool addition in Starfield as long as it’s not just another procedurally generated place with things to shoot in it.
Idk man starfield is just boring imo
He does. In hs year-in-review video (do not remember the name), he gives Starfield the "Most Disappointing Game Award", precisely because its boring
the game is trash
there, that's my "hot take"
It's not so hot anymore lol, everyone except for xbox fanboys think this game is hot trash.
@@Vert_GreenHeart its not a masterpiece but its not trash
@@Mo-hl5juno it’s definitely trash
@@colincolombo2095 the gollum game
Can't swim in a spacesuit? My brother in Christ, NASA literally trains astronauts underwater in space suits.
Pretty sure you could use power armor when swimming in Fo4, you'd just be stuck at the bottom. Apparently bethesda was capable.
It's not a full suit just one that floats abit in water so they train their muscles and muscle memory.
The coast guard brought some of these to my school during a recruitment day once they felt super weird like trying to swim with pool noodles under your arms.
@@ArrKayCeepower armor underwater was genuinely pretty neat
Yeah, and they clearly can't swim in them. They don't even really... float in them.
Cringe
the ONLY immersion breaking realism flaw that i legit hate, is getting lung damage from breathing toxic gas.... WHILE WEARING A SPACE SUIT!!!
From what I gather it depends on your suit and whether it's corrosive or not, hence why if you stand for too long your suits integrity goes off
Well an N95 mask won't protect you from everything. The same way a space suit won't protect you from everything.
@@jcarirthe primary function of a space suit is being airtight. If it allows gasses to get inside the suit then its by definition not air tight. My issue was not that it doesnt protect against everything, but fails at the primary function it suppose to have.
Well there’s gotta be some liberties taken.
I mean heck in Fallout 4 you could jump from the top of a skyscraper in power armor and you’d be fine or how FromSoft protagonist’s can carry hundreds of weapons and clothing pieces and only get encumbered when they equip them
@@____Carnage____those are all compromises where the game is less realistic to be less annoying.
This is case where the game is less realistic to be more annoying. It's not a compromise, it's a negative from every angle.
Why do rotten people like the woke stuff? Is it a requirement?
Tl;Dr they're mad because nobody attractive wants to bone with them.
The woke mindset derives it's from communism. Communism is mainly carried by rich kids with zero practical skills for work. Wokism is much of the same but it also attracts people who are ugly and mentally ill but unwilling to change or take care of themselves, so instead they blame everyone else for creating a system that they think disadvantages them.
Ain’t it crazy it’s only been 4 months, famous modders say they won’t touch it, and no one talks about it anymore. Never thought I’d miss fallout 4.
One modder said they wouldnt
@@liveslugreaction729 Not only one. Most of the modders that were expected to jump on starfield, a lot of the OG skyrim, oblivion, and morrowind modders are in agreement that the game is trash and not worth modding.
@petervenkman9838 lol, you just have to have it universally be deemed trash don't you. Lmao absolutely NO legit modders will EVER touch it. They ALL say and KNOW it's trash. 😂😂😂yeah okay buddy. Feels good to be in the majority doesn't it. It's safe there.
@@smugnick5458 if you think that games okay I genuinely feel sorry for you lol
@@vindix9137 thats like feeling bad for people who like cilantro...weird flex
Spoilers, but there is a quest where you fly into the outer atmosphere of a gas giant in Starfield. But part of the quest is assembling a special shield upgrade to not get melted by the EM emissions of the gas giant and even then you take constant damage the entire time you're in there.
ah dammit! Delgado you pulled it off!
@@PaddyLonglegsTechnically it's more that Delgado knew people who knew people who could help prep a ship for _us_ to pull it off.
If a game asks me at the beginning if I want to kill myself, and I pick yes and die, that game is immediately gaining a +1 in rating from me for the funniest shit ever
*Me making out with a Mind Flayer three minutes into the actual game
new vegas dead money
Nier Automata's OS Chip is part of the reason it's my all time favourite 100%
Borderlands 2 and 3, Handsome Jack and Tyrene both give you missions to kill yourself for loot.
It's not like gamers aren't prone to it. Look a hole. Jumps into it.
So, about that Sweet Baby Inc oppsie…😂
Aged like milk... Just like sweet baby inc. 😂😂😂
You're a clown
The "controversy" around Kingdom Come: Deliverance is the ultimate example of woke. Wanting more black people in a game about historical medieval Czech is just peak American horseshit.
((((American)))) horseshit
Or as Az correctly points out, peak modern day Californian horseshit.
Same with games like TLOU2. Set in some of the reddest of red states, but there are pride flags around every corner and every man is a manbun wearing Hispanic californian metrosexual.
Act man is absolutely seething that you cant make the main character trans, black, indigenous, handicapable, and neurodivergent. Racist game devs!
Yup I remember that during the development their tag line was "dungeons and no dragons" or something like that given their strong focus on realism. But now I'm just imagining "dungeons and no dragons but now with extra black people in mediaeval Bohemia" hmm.. for some reason not as catchy lmao
It's just like the new Mads Mikkelsen movie... exactly like this
I’m a little sad you didn’t mention the guy who legitimately mistook real life pictures of Mars for in-game screenshots and then complained they didn’t look good enough
tbh most real pics are lame
Like when that guy fooled the world by taking a pic of a pepperoni lmao
@@damntrain5145i was really impressed by a picture in an article about a Jupiter probe and it was fake.
How did they get real life pictures when space is fake?
Hmm, suspicious 🤨
legitamately hilarious 😂
Its still a trash game, btw.
They lost 95% of their gaming base in only 16 weeks, sheesh
Bethesda once again tried to leave the full work to modders to fill their empty filled game with content. Yup they ain’t falling for it this time!! Not after Fallout 76😂
Dang, that Quantum TV drama really pulled back Act’s thin veneer.
I'd probably be more sensitive if someone harassed my family over a small internet disagreement
@@MrBell762 Oh, I would, too. However, since that incident, Act Man has acted more combative and sanctimonious in his views, than the chill guy I subscribed to.
@california816 Yeah, I'll agree there. It does seem that he is getting more aggressive in his videos, but I really don't think that is a bad thing though. I honestly think it's entertaining, and he brings good points. If that's not your thing though, I won't judge.
@california816 didn't mean to paragraph dump
@@MrBell762 Nah, it's all good. I understand.
I think it would've been neat to be able to land on stars and gas giants just for your character to immediately vaporize.
You would burn up well before even coming close to landing. 😂
That’s what I’m sayin
Or like a warning 'YOU WILL DIE' haha
i think it would be great to seamlesly land and take off from planets.. like in No Mans Sky or Star Citizen
I've landed on Venus, what a few harsh wind can do copium
My takeaway from this is that it just reinforces my belief that social media was a fucking mistake.
Yes, yes it was and it'll only get worse :)
'Social' lobotomy
Then the internet was a mistake, because the first thing we started doing in the 80s was talking to eachother lol. And yet, sometimes I think the internet was a mistake, or at least the popularity of it isn't good. Back in the late 90s I remember people acting like I was a nerd for web surfing lol, but most companies didn't invest heavily in internet sites or infrastructure to run their business online, because most people weren't there, they were still in the stores. LiveJournal was the closest thing to current social media, but it was mostly just people who knew eachother irl that commented on eachothers posts in my experience, which made it better imo
We'll its great for all the grifters who can make thousands on addsense. Its the easiest money besides being loud and annoying on kick.
...and yet you partake.
Polished star field is? That take ain’t it chief
It's his opinion and how he feels. You don't have to agree.
saying something is polished isn't an opinion, that's a factual statement. For ex, if I hold up a rock it is either polished or it isnt.@@davidcook680
@@davidcook680 don’t want to be a nerd emoji, but that’s just not true. There’s a difference between fact and opinion. Starfield is OBJECTIVELY not polished.
@@davidcook680it’s objectively poor. Mainly because it’s dated.

Also, swimming/diving in their spacesuits is literally how astronauts train for EVA because it's the best way we have here on earth to simulate zero-G for meaningful periods of time
It's also great for getting their bearings.
@@caradonschuester2568 and its good cardio
@@Blaurotno way
Literally the first thing I thought of when I got to this portion of the vid 😂
Hardly like the devs would of intended that though, you're glorifying and oversight for cope😅 when did we all become so desperate for something new that we abandoned all sense of reason
Ironically enough to everyone complaining that you can’t go into gas giants, there actually is a part of the pirate questline where you do get to go into a gas giant for a short period and it practically melts through your ship for the few seconds you fly through it.
Wouldn't the gravity just crush your ship like a tin can
@@AQS521 Pressure, pressure crushes the ship like tin can in gas giant atmosphere. In this hypothetical case I assume the shields are thing holding for a bit.
@AQS521 well it depends, gravity on Jupiter for example is only really about 2.5 times that of earth. The danger comes from heat and weight of the gas above you if you go deep into the planet.
bugger, im in the middle of that questline, thanks for the spoilers mate.
Well you can go to a gas giant and land near it, but it requires a completion of a quest line that is great 👍
This video has gotta be the worst Strarfield hot takes.😂
Act man seen all the good reviews and thought that the popular opinion would be to praise the game. As people began to see how shallow the game is, he soon realized that was a mistake.
@@wyattgeorge9696 he made this video during his playthrough of the game though. He liked it then and still likes it a bit, but now says it's a disappointment from Bethesda and could have been much better. The takes he talked about here weren't about actual criticisms about the game like th terrible map screen, bad UI design, horrible AI, bad texture work, loading screens, bad enemy designs, bad bounty system etc. Instead he talked about the idiotic takes people were having like 'you should be able to land on gas giants" and the pronouns rant (which honesty made him look like an idiot).
@@Ishaan_A apparently, you haven't watched the "pronoun" video. It's a shame that people only focused on that pronoun part and not the rest of the video which includes a lot of valid criticism about the game .
Nah not really
@@benedictjajo short video...which half of it was spent just insulting the devs, is that meant to make AZ look better?
L
My Biggest gripe is that I am not allowed to fly my ship into a star and instantly die. C'mon Todd it was gonna be funny, and it could have been even funnier if I flew all of the artifacts with me to get a joke ending
My second biggest gripe is that I can’t sequence break and kill everyone in the Key
No joke, that's the kind of stuff ive always missed from bg (And im a huge fan)
Just that silliness of testing the limits and seeing that they actually thought of it.
I live for those moments in RDR2 for example. What would happen if I went off this Cliff or stoof in front of a train? Well yes I would die 😂
Even Everspace 2 does this, it has a similar location style of premade and procedural ones, but at least you can actually kill yourself by entering a planet's atmosphere at 30% the speed of light xD
BG3: I wonder if I can 😮😮☺
SF: I wonder if I can 😪🙄🥱
honestly this is hilariosu and i approve, it indeed would be funny
I think it would bel hilarious to have the option to plummet headfirst into a star or gas giant with a 100% guarantee of death too
Bethesda please add this
I think asmondgold has a point. seeing a pirate with an andrew tate tshirt that says some shit like "YOU'RE BROKE" would be funny asf
it'd detract from the ESG score however, which is the main driver for a lot of drivel in the industry
Bro you just lost credit score
Also @@rhyancudor you are SO FUCKING RIGHT.
I feel like people who live on the internet forget that nobody in the real world knows or cares about Andrew Tate.
@@FringeSpectre Does that help you sleep at night?
I still can’t get over that starfield is over 100 gigs but basically a handful of planets and no open exploration while I’m pretty sure no man’s sky’s does all that and more at 70 gigs
when i had NMS installed it was like 15 or 25 if im not mistaken
@@boogieman08 yes it was, i had it on ps4 tho
I have nms installed right now on my PS4, the file says it weighs less than 20 gb, it's realistically more but still, you can got o every planet and fully explore it to your heart's content, plus, the game is so good right now
Ya, this is the video that he no longer make review as soon as he used to.
This is what happen when poeple afraid to be wrong
Honestly they should let you fly into a gas giant just so you can hear the people on the ship panic as you fly into the planet
Barret screaming from the back "ARE YOU MAD?!?!?!"
They did something like this is Mass Effect Andromeda. Whenever you drove near a cliff edge, your crew would freak out. It got really annoying, really fast
Im fairly certain someone will make a mod for that.
Yeah I think that's why some players are a little bummed out, is because Starfield doesn't let you find out the hard way... they just 🐔-block you with barriers instead of a death wall which would be just as easy to implement but infinitely much cooler.
Kryx's Legacy sends you into a gas giant to board a lost Galbank transporter and download the credits.

Wait you’re telling me there was outrage over the “Mortally Challenged” line in Doom Eternal? Thats like one of the most memorable throwaway lines in the game 💀
Just a brief stint. It was completely forgotten when the game out. I wouldn't be surprised if it was just tiny number people that CZcamsrs decided rage about them for clicks.
Because that outrage was extremely stupid.
Comparing immigrants to hell demons from "doom" was too much of a stretch even
@@adnanasif9538 wait how is that a jab at immigrants? Its a jab at people who are “mentally challenged”
there was no actual outrage about it, just manufactured hate by “anti-woke” channels trying to push an agenda by pretending like the line was an anti left joke
Im trans and found that shit hilarious. Some people take themselves too seriously.
As someone who has spent many hours playing this game I can confirm that Starfield is in fact a Bethesda game.
Bugs included
Lies!! Grift and lies!!

Isn't that exactly how they test to see if spacesuits are working? By putting them in water?
Yes, NASA trains astronauts in giant swimming pools. Also because it sort of emulates the feeling of weightlessness. So it's also not ridiculous to assume that with future (lighter weight) spacesuits, swimming would be entirely possible...
Not to mention it would make sense to design the spacesuits with buoyancy as a feature on the off chance you did fall in water deep enough to swim in
@@timpointer6664the thing is space suits tend to have some natural bouency. Similar to a submarine. Air is less dense then water and part of a space suit design is often to fill the suit with air surrounding the person inside.
Its also why some car can "bounce" upward after crashing into water. And takes time to actually sink into the water, as the air leaves the entier of the car
Its also why early deep sea divers needed weights to keep them on the sea floor
Heck there's even an argument that the space suits in starfield actually make it harder to swim below the surface. Since they are effectively ultra light human shape balloons.
Something I wanted to add at the end but forgot is this isn't an excuse to not have under water swimming in game. Its a counter to anyone who says that it's unrealistic for a person in a space suit to float on the surface of the water.
And all things considered I would had like to be able to explore underwater especially on those planets that had those opening to what seem to be underground ocean/lakes.
But I can see why they didn't bother.
For the "mass effect gas giant thing", yes you can go to a gas giant in the game. Its the shadow broker DLC. You are on a space ship though for the entire mission. :D
Yeah, but it's all in a space station in the upper atmosphere of a gas giant, and even then the only reason the station can survive is because of the forcefield that Mass Effect fields can create.
@@alexlyster3459 I am being charatable to the people posting about the gas giant stuff. I think they just want floating stations just like in star wars.
Except Hagalaz wasn't a gas giant, just an unstable planet
Hagalaz (the planet the Shadow Broker's ship is on) isn't a gas giant. It's a rock planet whose surface is split between freezing cold and burning heat. Where the two seasons meet a constant mega-storm rages.
If you want an actual gas giant that you visit in Mass Effect (also in ME2) then look no further than the brown dwarf that contains the derelict Reaper.
Warframe has alot of missions on the gas giants
Woke man. Pronoun man.
The funniest thing about the swimming in a space suit drama is the fact that at nasa, to become a astronaut you literally have to swim in your spacesuit as part of your test.
Plus the biggest swimming pool in the world is at NASA they test their equipment under water since it simulates different pressures and gravity
@@deeznutz8320it's also where the film the spacewalks! anyone remember those accidents where ISS space walkers had their suits start filling up with water, while they were apparently in space?

I haven't even played Starfield, or Diablo 4, or Hogwarts Legacy, but the heated discourse surrounding all 3 of these games has provided me with more content and entertainment than the games themselves ever could have if I'd played them.
Lol, I enjoy this stuff also
Entertainment ? You find this entertaining ?
It's depressing is what it is. It's depressing that so many people are this petty and stupid. We all have to share this planet together and everyday it seems they just get more and more unhinged.
What was the drama with D4 again
Not gonna lie that sounds extremely sad if that's entertaining to you. But to each their own I guess.
Hogwarts is really good, the other two not so much
I gave starfield a fair chance… but goddamn I did not have fun. Played lies of P instead
If the beginning of a game is so bad and cannot pull me in then what is the point of me trying to play the rest of it? It was literally a rehashed intro of Skyrim.
"What about showing a friend" truly got me there lol
Great cameo, got a smile outta me
Such a good bff
The lotr trilogy is timeless man
Unironically, a ship-based mission where you fly through the atmosphere of a gas giant while ships stalk you through the fog would kinda go hard.
Entire 'gas giants' argument is a strawman. People complained about 10000 issues, but he found the most irrelevant and only one he can 'defend'.

@@albogypsy2842 Act Straw-Man
The game ia actually amazing if you can run it 🤷🏾♂️
@@albogypsy2842 That's why it's called WORST takes since the ones he listed are pretty bad. There are a ton of better takes on the game, which are not limited to empty planets filled with rocks, boring main story, soulless NPC's, bugs and glitches (part and parcel of Bethesda games), ect. Everyone knows No Man Sky is leagues better than this game, but to be fair, it took years for NMS to get there. If Rockfield doesn't improve within the next couple of years, then it'll remain a mediocre game.
My pronouns are Grif/Ter
Hey act ma'am someone make 8 hours video how bad starfield is
Why are you commenting this? To prove people disagree with him?
On the whole it isn't a big deal thing. Even as someone who doesn't really care about the pronoun debacle, I did find it alarming that mod sites like Nexus mods are actively taking down mods that remove pronoun selection all together, I mean Act Man was even community noted about this on Twitter.
Why would you need that though? When you pick the male or female body, it automatically picks the set of pronouns that your body type is typically assigned to.
You don’t have to touch that. It does it for you.
exactly, even if there might be bigoted modders it just shows an obvious bias and lack of spine when it comes to nexusmods,
"if they arent a big deal, then shouldnt be a big deal to mod them out amirite?"
"no dont do it youre banned you pos, ignore our lolita mods we allow on skyrim page btw thx come again"
Yea I agree both are stupid
@@fireheart8878 Yeah, I know. I actually play the game... Like I said I just found it alarming in general that mods were being taken down and people were being banned, just for actually putting those kinds of mods up in the first place. Since I'm a firm believer that no one, "no one" should be policing what mods you install and enjoy in a single player game.
@@diogo5963 Basically this, I get judging people for what mods they have installed since people are human but outright banning people and taking down mods just cause you don't agree with them is where I draw the line.
To be fair with the whole running around the circumference of the planet thing, in No Man's Sky, one of the most freeing things you can experience as a new player is to just fly a starship around a planet without ever hitting a wall and do crazy maneuvers with it. You get around really quickly while also looking for things to mine. You could do the same with ground vehicles too, and with the variance in terrain its actually pretty fun to just drive around with your truck and dig up stuff off the ground.
Starfield has an actual story, killing, space combat, joining factions and doing side missions for them. Does no man sky do that? Also, at no man's sky launch it was horrible

It does
@@alexanderm3504Starfield is also pretty bad at launch. It's more or less fine if you own an Xbox and are ok with 30 fps, but it runs horribly on a lot of PCs.

One of my biggest complaints comes via my 11 year old daughter who is a huge space nerd. Where the hell is the crater on Mimas? I asked her to pick any moon she would want to visit in our solar system and she picked Mimas so we could walk around the giant crater only to find that it wasn't there.

Oh he knows, he's just not going to talk about it.
and thats how you know its just propaganda. if on one had you can say confidently "hey its no issue just having the option in the game, its just to be inclusive" but on the other hand you are going to ban people for not wanting it, and giving themselves and option to not have it then thats just straight up hypocrisy

@@Ssxextreme I sincerely doubt he would do that, that would be very bad taste
You’re very disingenuous. You have outed yourself.
New Vegas has spoiled me. The moment I first started Starfield and realized I couldn't just create my character and f off to whatever direction I wanted and run across whatever madness that awaited me, I had to sit through finding a special mineral and meeting characters who don't find a place in my heart like Easy f#ckin Pete. Plus, it puts a patch of tar in the game's replability.
It's basically a worse Fallout 4. I think the people who praise the game are those who have never played a decent action RPG before
Tbf, every Bethesda game starts like that. Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout 4, Skyrim, etc. starts with a series off quests you have to sit through before you can do whatever. Ironically, Fallout 76 is their only recent game that allows you to do whatever relatively early. Though, just like with New Vegas, they had very little to do with creating that game. Another studio did the bulk of it.
Mainquestlines are over rated. Look. Isn't it time to go to white run. No. Only after I run to solitude to become a bard.
@@milesperhour9256 or just have different tastes. its like you dont get how an opinion works.
@@milesperhour9256 it's not a great RPG. And it doesn't even scratch the space-itch I had. I feel like if they pulled a more Star Citizen style for space travel, it'd be a bit of a better game.
It would be hilarious if the devs put in a notice when you try to land on gas giants that says "Your ship will explode, do you wish to continue?" and then just give a game over screen if they select yes.
I wish it did this tbh!
Devs are not smart enough to do that.
Im not picking a side. Im sitting on the fence BUT.. Outer Worlds did let you do this lol.

@@whitmanmalemanReal. I think it also stems from them trying to widen the market to people who aren't gamers. It used to be a niche to like video games but now it's cringe to even say "gamer" because everyone plays video games. A bad direction for the quality of the art in my opinion.

@25:56 Your argument on TLJ is similar to the argument Az's was making in his second video. He saw things as woke writing and had a rant about it. I feel people are just refusing to gave him even a little bit of the benefit of the doubt.
keep in mind, what is "woke" is not a binary, you can show the same thing to 100 people and you probably won't get a consistent answer.
**but the game do let me murder Gay people *1 gay couple invited me onto their ship without any different consequences so yah.
if it were woke, it would have made them invulnerable like kids in game. just saying.
CALIFORNIA! CURRENT DAY! NO IMMERSION! IDEOLOGY! NOTHING TO SAY! EVERYTHING! PRONOUNS!
Besides, the character creation screen and an female NPC clone that will give you her backstory when asked what Az is throwing a fit over, and that's not as substantive to the game as Admiral Holdo was to the plot of The Last Jedi. No do I remember anyone literally screaming that loudly over Admiral Holdo. Miranda was a clone of a man in Mass Effect 2, a 2010 game, that doesn't make it woke writing or current day politics. I haven't even heard a politician mention cloning in the last 10 years.

I want to believe that The Acting Male is making a “Is the Mass Effect trilogy a masterpiece?” video since he used the Galaxy Map soundtrack a couple of times
Yeah, that music is great
I'd say it mostly is a masterpiece, especially because it's three games in one for a nice price, especially if it's on sale, plus there were a lot of nice overhauls to it, and all DLC is free with it. I know the 3rd one is not as popular, but even then, it's still a mostly good remastered trilogy for a nice price.
@@cadendicky1855 Honestly with the dlcs included, I think the third one is my favourite because of how it made me feel about how the stakes were raised and the climax of the story. Also it made me care so much for the fates of all the companions which all made the trilogy feel like one great journey from start to finish.
everyone uses that track though.
I went to my local GameStop to get Starfield and immediately returned it because the game wouldn’t let me fly head on into the Sun, I’ve never felt so cheated in my life
Gamestop visits make me want to fly into the sun also. Don't give that horrible company money lol
Who the hell wants to go to the sun??? That's not even realistic in real life.

Yup 😑
My hot take is that the majority of the game is the worst part of Fallout 4. You know the parts where you're running around in between places, and you find a house with some raiders? That's what a lot of Starfield feels like.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt this way. I just couldn't get into the game, there's no hook for me like there is in previous bethesda games.
The main story arc presents no apocalyptic threat to be averted.
There are minimal stakes in play, and those that exist threaten the main character as much as any other mortal danger.
I nearly refunded this game on the first day, I pushed beyond the first 6 hours, and man was it worth it. UC Questlines really sucked me in, already have plans for a potential 2nd and 3rd playthrough.
@@ranes055270 dollars to force yourself to play the game? Fuck no. Why are gamers so gimped?
funny part about that comparison is that everyone called fallout 4 dogshit on release but somehow after 2 years look back with rose-tinted glasses oh the game is amazing why everyone complain, starfield is here and the cycle continues. 15-30 bucks in year or 2 when game is in discount bin with added dlc is probably when game is an 8 or 9.
The main complaint I have, and probably the reason most people won’t plau a second playthrough, is that the minority of quests are, fast travel here and talk to this person, and then fast travel here and talk to this person, and then fast travel here for the only fight you’ll have within an hour, and then some more fast travel to other people to talk too, not to mention with 2 or 3 points in persuasion you can beat every single quest in the game with ease
I can understand people complaining that it's a little threadbare in terms of curated content, but if what you want to do is fight, there's no shortage of opportunites.
i think that thats most bethesda games in skyrim people always just fast travel to the nearest place u can then walk which is kinda the same here u fast travel and then get out of ur ship and walk the rest of the way
You quite literally just described New Vegas, which a lot of people consider the best Fallout game.
@@colinreynolds01
What people want are meaningful interactions with interesting NPCs and combat to complement these.
Vault 34 wasnt good because you got to kill 30+ ghouls but because the location had an interesting backstory and visual look, those ghouls were its former inhabitants AND the end reward was unique and powerful for the duration of the rest of the game from that point.
Starfield doesnt have interesting locations, it doesnt have unique rewards that are useful for long periods of time, and the enemies you fight rarely are more than nameless people that happened to be at the location.
@@serathaevistille995no I didn’t, the big difference between starfield and new Vegas or any other Bethesda game is that in starfield there is nothing to run into during traveling, in the other games if an objective is close enough usually the player will walk and find stuff on the way that is fun, that’s just not an option in star field, not to mention new Vegas had fun quest design, not just bland conversations with loading screens in between
