Starfield: The Mystery Of Meh
Рет қаралды 30,752
Күн бұрынStarfield is an incredibly ambitious game from a world renowned developer that doesn't always translate what they are known for best in this new sci fi adventure. To dive into why I went back and played Bethesda's games of the past (Skyrim & Fallout 4) and this is what I found.

I’ve watched dozens of videos on Starfield trying to make sense of why this game felt so empty. You really nailed it and helped me to understand it better than most of the other videos. It’s so strange, I think the saddest thing for me is I thought…well I can’t wait to upgrade my ship so I can visit the more distant systems. Just imagine what will be there for people to find - how many great handcrafted things are out there. Only to find that outside of the starter systems, there is literally nothing. All they really had to do was hide a number of different things throughout the 1000 planets. It would have made it like one giant Easter egg hunt - encouraging people to explore every system to be the first to find things. That one simple thing would have made this game so incredible. I’m at a loss for why they didn’t do this. Take all the cities, towns and points of interest and dispense them throughout the galaxies. I feel like their ulterior motive is to release a lot of DLC - much like games as a service model but even if they released a free DLC tomorrow, I wouldn’t be in a hurry to turn the game on again, because I didn’t like the companions or the factions so I’m not really jazzed to hop back into this world.

It's designed to waste your time, the entire game is a bore-fest of mediocrity. I give it 4/10 personally and really think it is actually an overhyped fraud of a game. When I started playing Cyberpunk 2.0 the other week ten hours into Starfield I realised how bad Starfield is.

They banked all of the long term retention on procedural generation and radiant quests, the least appealing parts of Bethesda's games, it's like they saw No Man's Sky on launch and thought that controversial chapter of the game's history was totally acceptable to emulate. I'm not even sure if they *can* make handcrafted dungeons either. Without the Creation Kit modding tools to confirm or deny this, I'm 95% sure they have a director addon for the Engine to recycle the finite number of Cells and NPC tags the game can actually have.

This is fairly easily fixable. They just need to add some variety to the Civilian Outposts, Abandoned Mines, Cryo Labs, etc. I love the game. I am right now on a non-Constellation quest where I only did the first Artifact and left. Used the Frontier to obtain an Econohaul and then left the Frontier at New Atlantis unused. I am over 100 hours into this playthrough. No artifacts, no Companion Quests, no Main Quests (except delivering the first artifact). I am doing Faction Quests. I am currently a Freestar Ranger and have a house in Akila City.i have 8 non-Constellation crew members on my ship. I am personally having a blast with about 350 total game hours just over 100 in this playthrough. It isn't (IMHO) that there are not things to do, it's that the things you find exploring are the same dungeons. 5 or 6 of each building could go a long way into fix this issue.

60 people developed Skyrim. 600 developed Starfield. And yet, Skyrim seems to be the game that is far more innovative and mechanically superior than anything in Starfield. The fact that there is no water physics or aid animations in Starfield just shows how rush the game was and undercooked. In Skyrim, the guards react to you if you are wearing opposing faction clothes. In Starfield, they are so brain dead might as well be cardboard cut outs.

Something you touched on the video, there's no way to really get locked out of quests. There's also no way to really fail about 95% of the quests in this game. This is the first Bethesda game I've encountered where you can't fail a quest. Even the quests I technically screwed up on, I just get yelled at by the quest giver and still complete the quest and get the rewards. Also every single NPC that is involved in any kind of quest is immortal and unkillable, which is completely immersion breaking and stupid.

One crazy thing to me was if you marry Sarah Morgan and then she dies later during the hunter's attack on the eye, you can't even mention to anyone at her funeral in constellation that you and her were closer than they thought or married or anything lol the only NPC that you can talk about that with is Aja Mimosa the ex leader who did your wedding. Like wouldn't the impact on your character be a lot if you lost your wife? Other characters could react to that like "OMG she never told us you guys were married, that's awful we're here for you" or some such BS. Another missed opportunity like you mentioned with the guy who wanted to betray Delgado. Not a lot to ask and it's absence is disappointing.

Every planet in Starfield feels dead. As soon as you leave the cave in Skyrim the world feels alive. The options of where you can go, things you can see or do feel endless. The feeling of exploration is amazing. That's what I wanted from Starfield. Initially I thought it had it. But the more I played it, the more I realised how empty and shallow the universe really was. It literally has no soul. It feels like is been designed by AI and I suppose it sort of has. In Skyrim You can feel the love and attention to detail in every location.

Great review! More companions and deeper relationships is what I was really hoping for. And space travel should take time and planning; load fuel and supplies, select companions for trip based on strengths, and while traveling, play a card or board minigame, sleep is also required. Perhaps build a base on a planet, and leave a companion there, and you'll need to return to resupply and bring more workers. If you don't return in time, they can die. Sigh, instead they gave us a surface-level action game with zero real choices. And the bit of fun there is is hidden behind tedious leveling of perks and dozens of mediocre fetch quests.

I played morrowind, oblivion, skyrim fallout 3 etc. and it just feels like Bethesda has lost so many little lessons that made them exceptional. I kept thinking, How did the makers of Morrowind, get this SO WRONG? Oh yeah - one more because you didn't mention it, Who's idea was that lockpicking minigame? I LOVE puzzles and I hated the lockpicking. SO TEDIOUS - It didn't feel like it tested my smarts just grinding options until the eventual tedious solution was found. I feel videos like this pack a hefty punch because developers hopefully would hear the voice of a true fan who just wants things to be better but isn't making unreasonable requests.

You nailed it! I don't want to experience the emptiness of space in a video game. I want random encounters, side missions to the side missions, and plenty of things to grab your attention on or off planet in the same way that the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series have done it for years. It's clear to me that Bethesda's focus was to create something huge, but the problem is that they didn't scale up the Bethesda magic accordingly. It's not a bad game, as you said, it's just mid. I would like to think that Bethesda will push updates to address this though and if not then I'm sure the community will mod the hell out of this!

Mass Effect 1 did everything better then Starfield 16 years ago. Which is odd considering how much Bethesda stole from the Mass Effect series in the last 3 games of theirs. Fallout 4 took the dialog option UI and voiced protag (a lot of the voice actors from ME show up too). They even ripped off the companions loyalty quests (granted New Vegas did it as well, but at least in NV and ME you could fail them). Most of these carry over to 76 too when it launched, though some of it now has been reverted in 76 as updates came out. Starfield rips off so many minor and major plot points. Their map designs on planets is almost exactly like ME1 just without the Mako. You wanna play a better version of Starfield? Play the Mass Effect trilogy.
@Centrifewgi 9 ай бұрын
Mass effect trilogy is an emotional thrill ride with consequences. Each action has choices that affect your character and outcomes of situations (paragon/renegade). It revolutionized true choice on RPGs imo, and it's a shame to see Starfield seemingly stuck in 2011 with a lot of regression. It doesn't feel like a next gen game, but a game from the early 2000’s with a new coat of paint that's less interesting. I think Bethesda is putting way too much focus on aspects no one cares about. 1000 planets is a great title for pr, but it also proved to people before launch that a lot of the game would be barren, and it is.

I feel like ever since Fallout 3 (or maybe Skyrim) Bethesda's RPG games specifically are growing more and more watered down. Choices, factions, reputation and skills are mattering less and less. Thats my gut feeling that has become ever more present after I finished playing Fallout: New Vegas for the dozenth time not too long ago. I mention New Vegas because the 4 elements I said matter in New Vegas but that was a Bethesda IP not made by Bethesda and it shows. That said at least until recently they understood the rule of having something occur on average every 40 seconds. I think I heard someone say that instead of every 40 seconds Starfield has an event every 5 MINUTES. I think it was Luke Stevens

I'm desperate for a small open world game. Could be as small as a quarter of Skyrim's map or even less. It's what happens within that small world that interests me. I heard someone say the old Gothic is sort of like that, that eventually you don't need a map because you grow familiar with all the landmarks and places running up and down the same old paths. Now I know everyone loves to hate Redfall, but for me it really nailed the world design. It's basically a town centre and outskirts divided into two maps. I'd argue even the first of the two would be more than enough had they just made the rest of the game good.

I honestly found redfall's world boring, but it does have a small layout. The new ac game may be like that. I heard it's rather small compared to the last few games.

@Centrifewgi Well, whether you liked the town of Redfall or not, I didn't feel like any of the environments, buildings or interiors were copy-pasted. As opposed to Starfield; a thousand planets and people still run into the exact same science lab multiple times on different planets. To me it's quite telling.

The ultimate small open world is Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. you can't walk 5 feet in the game without coming across something interesting. The devs said it was their goal to make it incredibly dense and small. There is really nothing like it
@MelAncholynus 9 ай бұрын
@morrisalanisette9067 Indeed, Mankind Divided is near perfect to me in that regard (although I do prefer Talos I in Prey), but at the same time it's the trademark of the im-sim genre. Would be nice to have a more traditional open world RPG set in a world like that, where it's small and dense but has a lot going for it. I guess that's just more demanding for devs, designers and writers. Too bad games like that are hard to find, because noone brags about a small game world. It's been established since long ago that bigger is better and here we are with Starfield and the 1000 uninteresting planets.

as someone who didnt expect much, I started realizing how boring the game was after a few hours of playing in earnest. I fucked up speccing for melee in a game where melee is an afterthought. I tried to pivot to the only supported weapon type (ballistics) but then I just made a new character. Game just bored the shit out of me. Like where is the hook? The inventory and encumbrance issues compounded by the lack of vendor liquidity just drove me nuts. The characters are wooden mannequins in comparison to even Fallout 4. I was not surprised when I learned that the game had bits and pieces outsourced to 27 different studios around the world and a lot of them are in hot water for borderline slave labor practices.

@@Wario_Kart I have found that all the main/side quests, with all radiant quests, easily gets me past 400 hours with one save and character. You’ve played the UC questline? The Crimson fleet questline? It also gets more interesting as you explore further, so for example, with the quest of transporting people, the game will eventually have you transport people back and forth from different science or civilian outposts on many planet’s. The many civilian and scientific outposts are actually minor settlements in the game, and not “enemy locations”. Talk to all named NPC’s wherever you go. Also, if you aren’t diving into ship building you are missing a massive part id the game. Outpost building is very niche, but the constant loop of building your own ship adds to the game a lot. I will say this though too… I had 2500 hrs of Skyrim and 4 hours of Fallout. The Fallout setting seemed really goofy to me so I never enjoyed it. Part of what has me enjoying the game is that I am a NASA/interstellar nerd, so there is a lot that draws me there. I have said it before, but I think BGS didn’t communicate well for what the game actually is and were assuming players would be very aggressive in pushing through the game. Also… the amount and variation of wildlife is very high too… if you expect Starfield to give everything in front of you quickly like Skyrim does it won’t. I would also say that this is probably the most mature/serious title BGS has ever made. Also… for full transparency I am also a PC player with a lot of experience with mods (gained from modding with Skyrim) so I have a lot to look forward to with the game too.

This was a pretty good video, well considered and decently produced. I'm hoping that the Algorithm does its thing and this blows up for you. Though I will note that you're perhaps a bit blinded by nostalgia regarding Skyrim, as the severe limitations on quest inputs and outcomes was in that game as well. One of the most infamous is the quest "The Whispering Door" in which Yarl Balgruuf's son has been acting oddly and he tasks the player with investigating. When you discover the reason, you can't actually speak to Balgruuf about it at all, as the real purpose of the quest is to give the player the Ebony Blade. Skyrim is littered with lazy quest design just like this, so it does not surprise me that Bethesda has keep this tradition alive and well in Starfield. You've nailed the reason why Skyrim works and Starfield does not quite well. Bethesda seems to have forgotten that exploration and freedom of movement were pivotal aspects of their formula and both have been stymied by the systems with Starfield.

@righteousham Agreed on the aspects about Skyrim's quest design and its limitations. Factions are also a joke in Skyrim. They were done excellently in Morrowind, and decently in Oblivion, but they took a nosedive off a sheer cliff in Skyrim. In Oblivion and Skyrim, all faction quests are on-rails with no branching quest lines and no alternative outcomes. But with Oblivion, at least you had the sense of progression and rising through the ranks and earning your position at the top. For example: You at to earn recommendations from each of the Guild Halls in order even to be admitted to the Arcane University, where the Mages Guild questline actually begins. In Skyrim, you can throw one scroll spell at a sigil on the floor, delve into a dungeon, and four or five fetch-quests later, you're proclaimed the Arch-Mage. It's just pathetic and lazy.

Some people say that Starfield is "Skyrim in space," but I don't agree. If it were, then we would be given the choice to join Constellation or the pirates, like in Skyrim, where both main storylines lead down similar paths but with different versions. I'm also curious why we can hire a crew if they can't go explore other planets or probe them for resources. The Starfield map feels bigger because there are no vehicles, but Skyrim's map is also huge, even on a horse. It takes some time to get across. Heck, Fallout 3,4 map feels fun to explore even if i may get rekt by a desthclaw out of nowhere or whatever enemy in Skyrim I was unprepared for. Imagine, trying to run across to this useless POI on a planet but a giant worm or giant creature wants to kill you. That feels engaging to me at least. NMS has threats on a planet almost always. I know some will say Starfield isn't a space sim but NMS and Starfield share one thing you land on a planet and scan plants and animals. Side note I dont like how jail basically nonexistent. Skyrim you can escape or kill yoir way out. In Starfield you get punished for going to jail aka you lose XP. I want to like Starfield but just feels boring I remember watching someone play Fallout 4 and he was in a conversation but a deathclaw was just wrecking havoc then decided to throw something at him and pull him out the conversation.

Unlock stuff such as vehicles, tech, industry... Whatever that adds "meaning" to the player's adventure. Instead, they gave us this ship crafting mechanic minigame, and you can't even fly your spaceship properly afterwards ?

So I tell it you to, since you seem cool. You have a good way of doing the like/subscribe bit, though I feel like if you mentioned subtly earlier on - that you were scrimping to save up for some big project... Then at the end just said "Big big thanks to all those who supported my project with donations or just moral support" it would suit you better. You sound a little reluctant to ask for stuff - which is fair I am just that same way! Maybe assume the close, just say thanks for supporting me instead of please support me. Works every time 75% of the time ;) You've done the difficult part already - you have amassed the talents and the setup to create really good stuff. Next level? Add "marketing and sales" to your talent list - little strategies here and there. That is the difference between a chancer like Todd Howard and a true master of the art like Carmack. They both have equally good concepts, and both find equally good programmers.... But Carmack has _actual vision_ and by the time he releases a project - we are all drooling at the corners of our mouth to get hold of it! And that's because he knows how to sell himself, like everybody knows DOOM is the ultimate game to have made, and that guy was the guy who made it. Is Doom better than Skyrim?? No way is it. But is the DOOM brand better than the Skyrim brand? You better fuckin believe it baby ;) So that's the thing you will gain in your next level up... You will create a method of getting 8/10 people to donate to you without having to ever ask "Please donate and subscribe". Yeah I reckon you will figure out your own pattern of things, that includes all that stuff - and start doing millions instead of 100k's!!

take for prime example: get stuck with sarah as a forced follower before meaning to, being unable to get away from her, COMPLETELY murder-hobo through the quest to get the artifact, have to put up with her going on about having something for you but she won't talk to you about it until you're done helping someone (her...) and THEN, as she's all happy and offers to tag along some more, she IMMEDIATELY has a full-on bipolar episode and launches straight into a tirade about killing which three clicks later she's all good with.. "for now"... I was open to the idea of followers and crew when i started playing, ten minutes in and i wanted to patch followers out for having to constantly hear them beak about how much _I_ was carrying/picking up. crew on ship and in outposts are ok for added immersion, but you couldn't pay me to willingly have a companion in starfield, not until i can HEAVILY mod the hell out of it. [MAN I can't wait for Star Citizen]..

The only companion I liked was Andreja and she got annoying. She followed me around during a major quest saying "when you have a second, I'd like to speak with you." But she never told me anything.

I can’t be anything other than a human in a game set in outer space, but I can be two humans at once. 👏 Outstanding!
