Starfield

September 2, 2023 - Reading time: ~1 minute - Category: game library project

I went ahead and did it. I was able to get Starfield's premium edition for 19% on Greenmangaming, so I figured what the hell. I'm about 5 or so hours in, and it's definitely a Bethesda game, for better and worse.There's a lot of bickering online about how shallow the exploration is - it's not one big seamless open world and you can't cross a whole planet on foot with no loading screens.I don't really care about that, I actually prefer smaller zones.

Besides that, all the Bethesda staples are here. Companions, a ton of quests, some wonky NPC AI. Inventory management is a bit of a chore.

If you like Bethesda games, you'll like this one. It's essentially "Fallout 4 in space". I like the space theme. If you mostly like these games for the mod scene, probably best to wait a while. But so far I've been having a pretty bug-free pleasant experience. Keep your expectations in check and you'll have a good time.

Verdict: Keep Playing

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting. 

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.

Yet another project I'm working on is my Old School RuneScape "Completionist" Quest, where I'm attempting to max out all skills and see everything the game has to offer as a completely new player.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
• Reviews, where I post longer-form review writeups
• Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
• Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
