I have 800 hours. To me the down side is Ryujin missions, becouse the end its stand alone… that dont fit in the major world.
Also if you play with the family perk, they allways is from UC, you DONT have a family in Akila or Neon. Thats a shame, when you use too Neon Rat perk.

For NG+ I miss save blueprint from my ships. And the turn comand when use 2×1 or 3×1 blocks, yeah you can still need one block in the right position to ship bridge, but why not the others blocks who follor the ”dorsal point?” Also, why not put ”chose doors and stairs positions”s in the ship build? If you put giant blocks together, is a hell.

The expension mission Shatred dimension is a ”before the end” quest, thats dont help the storytelling.

Also mods like watchtower are amazing!

To me the game is a solid 8,5 and I cut 0,5 becouse dont have brazillian dub. So he ends to me a 8,0 in my personal taste.

The outpost building in Fallout 4 was janky, but it works better than Starfield. Very bad sign for Fallout 5 if they give it the Starfield treatment. I wish Bethesda cared for the game but they just don’t.

Starfields problem is that it expected Players to keep coming back to it for hundreds of hours yet not doing enough to keep people actually invested all the way through.

On your first playthrough after all the faction quests, main story missions and some exploring in between you probably just scratched the surface of base building or have not seen all Star systems because you are 20+ levels too weak for the latter or didn’t put literally all your skill points into unlocking base building perks.
After that you are expected to go into new game plus except without the ships and bases you’ve built so far and without a lot of reasons to repeat the (fairly strong) faction quests.

And that is the point where most people just check out of the game because explorating generated voids doesn’t have the pull as exploring handcrafted worlds in fallout or elder scrolls.
Elder scrolls 4 actually had the same problem for me with the copy and paste dungeons and uninteresting overworld but at least it got the cities and towns. Starfield had too few of these hubs, too few questlines and slow progression that locks most of the players out of its more unique strengths.

Again, I’ve said this before, Starfield is a game that’s simultaneously incredibly mature and endlessly creative. And the endless online negativity is just a real disservice to gamers. But I think when it gets a wider release people will probably have to reassess this absolutely cool game. Also it always makes me laugh when people say “it was OK” because it tells me they haven’t truly either dived into the game, or they don’t realise it’s an rpg and are trying to get it to be something it is not.

I guess the biggest hang-up for me is~ why are legacy features ‘missing’ at all? Why do we still have NPC clones in 2025, even though the engine seems powerful enough to avoid such a thing? You could always play a villain in Bethesda games before, why not Starfield, this would’ve been the perfect sandbox for it? Why weren’t there more resources poured into expanding the number of POIs to keep the illusion of space going for longer?

There are just too many weird, unanswered questions about this game – that make me too uncomfortable to let Bethesda off the hook. There being no REV-8 on release (you had to walk everywhere on foot), and no Local Map? Some things just don’t make any sense with this game.

😂 After watching this video, I’m wondering how much money Bethesda is paying you or if you’re hoping they will pay you. Starfield is a $70 – $299 loading screen, procedure generation, wonkish, and two-dimensional character, come buy our mods, the video game with a sci-fi vibe. Now, before anyone wants ot start something I used to love Bethesda’s games from Daggerfall through to Fallout 4, the later I’ve played over 2k hours so far, but since 76, I wouldn’t waste another dime on them and that includes the ugly faded Oblivion remaster. All Bethesda can make is rehashes of their original without the magic that made them great! Starfield is a perfect example of what is wrong with Bethesda in a nutshell. Now, if you want a game that requires real imagination then text adventures or interactive fiction, Starfield makes the text adventure “Paranoia” seem deep and engaging. There are thousands of great games out there 1D, 2D, and 3D to spend on and if you use emulators that are tens of thousands so that $70 – $299 can be spent a whole like wiser than “Starfield”.

Characters look silly, colour filter is yuck, building feels pointless, most NPC’s are unkillable, no player choice, armour looks silly, I’ll play it once the mods make it cool

also excellent video

Nah, I just didn’t like it. Not everything to be deep. It’s ok to just not care for a piece of media. I am glad you enjoyed it though

I’m enjoying this game 10x more now with a few mods and late game.

It feels empty having no sapient alien characters

Why hello, Watchtower dev here!

The YouTube algorithm said I should watch this, and I did. Appreciate the shout out!

Great video.

That’s exactly it. The ability to roleplay in an extremely large sandbox plus the amazing ship building are why I still continue to play Starfield as my main game

Starfield is super fun, but it has a problem. Most of the modern audience has cooked attention span.
And of course Starfield requires an actual attention span.
So if you’re one of the fans of Starfield like a few of us in the comments, congratulations, somehow you were able to maintain an attention span.

I love your positive outlook on things! This is the kind of content we need

Great content, thanks!

I just subscribed to your channel I love Starfield I subscribe to all channels that cover Starfield thumbs up.

I love Starfield. It’s ability to be any kind of game you want it to be makes it really comforting to me. What do I want to do today….Interior design? Space pirating? Espionage? Explore? Save civilization? Build ships? Raid outposts? Become a mining baron? Sure, it takes some imagination on the players part, but the game gives me the opportunity to do and be anything.

Too many people have no taste and honestly it’s an iq problem.

My favorite game. Been playing since launch

it is a incomplete sandbox with a mediocre main campaign. yes the game is trash.

Ive played starfield for 100s of hours and multiple new game +’s and I genuinely dont understand why the game gets so much hate compared to skyrim, if anything i find starfield a better game for actual roleplaying

I was enthusiastic about Starfield. I actually enjoyed exploring its universe despite the repetitive landscapes, but when it came to building I wasn’t interested because items never stayed where you originally placed them. While fans of the game applauded DLC and other content, I didn’t (as much as I wanted to). The game just fell short in way too many areas and I’m not a fan of developers who happily take the money, yet mask a flawed product with “stuff” as if it has no cracks, or leave the majority of fixes to modders. A great game doesn’t need an imaginative push. When you compare Starfield to a game as well rounded as KCD2 (regardless of the differences in setting and a lesser-financed developer) those problems become even more apparent, but I don’t knock anyone for liking it.

I absolutely loved your video man! Subscribed

“it’s a void, brimming with potential” implies, for a moment, that there is something to build in that void. There is not. The building in this game is worse than 76, worse than 4, worse than ESO. Your imagination used a very crappy pre-built and a very small catalog of furnishing items and wall decor to make an austere, sad space. The exterior ship building is…better, though the way the halls connect is, um. Bad. Just bad design. And, again, building INSIDE those ships took forever to arrive and it’s even worse than building in bases when it does arrive.

With the quests “Sure, there is no actual real consequence, but if you only play once…in a game DESIGNED around looping through the same content repeatedly”… they could have done so many different things that could have been massive here, but instead it’s a rail, which looses all illusion of joy as soon as you try something different in your second life.

Every other game, the “gaps in the void” as you call it, the stuff between points of interest, are clogged with interesting things, resources, random encounters… in starfield it’s just boring and dead. Every new vista or biome brings very little excitement because you _know_ there is _nothing_ there. There is very little sense of discovery in this game because outside of marked POI’s there’s _nothing to discover_ .

In short… it’s great that you enjoy the game, but what you find to be acceptable most of us are looking at, and going “you’ve done so much better, with so, so very much less”.

Making this just before the expected update/dlc announcement/ps5 release. I see you!

Great video btw

I’m still playing Starfield. I enjoy the game loop of NG+ and farming for perfect loot. Shipbuilding is easily Starfield’s best feature. Outpost building is pointless to me since I like NG+. Why build a perfect sand castle when the NG+ tide is rolling in to wash it away?

It’s awesome to see someone enjoy a game just for the sake of enjoying it. Your approach makes me wanna keep supporting your content!

Also, it’s cool that you put the time in with ship-building. If I may, and if you’re looking for some extra Starfield content to make, would you be open to doing a ship-building tutorial? I always get discouraged halfway through and bail on my custom craft.

Anyway, keep up the awesome work!

I find myself playing much older games. I don’t have a lot of free time and when I do I want to play the “best” version of it. Some games will have pending updates for years. Glad they continue to work on them but kind of miss the old day’s. I know games are much larger and more complex now. Kinda works in my favor, usually can get them marked way down with ALL updates!

in a world where gaming discourse feels so polarising either worst game ever or best game ever, it’s nice to just have someone out there that enjoys gaming the same way i do!

I haven’t booted up the game in a while, but you got hankering 😊

love a new starfield video, we need more positive gaming channels on youtube
