Bethesda should have really married the multiverse theory by having individual player games start out in different universes so no two players really have the exact samw start.

[@Legacyartist]

See that makes a hell of a lot more sense then NG+ alternate start mods are some of the most popular. I don't know anyone who asked for an endless grind that resets everything. I want to change up my build and playstyle not keep playing the same character with the occasional joke.

[@maskednil]

Yup, I had small thought like this when videos of NG+ started coming up. Like make 10 well crafted linear tales that converges with you meeting various selves or reality. Heck, replaying the game means you're replaying each variation of the story they had. But your take is simply brilliant. Let the game start every player randomly in one of the 10 different tale, and shuffle the NG+ order differently so that everyone gets a different journey. Imagine the impact it would have had on the games industry.

[@ZSA929]

Had this exact thought last week. So much potential with the multiverse aspect considering how different starts, combinations and NG+'s can be added with updates/cheap DLC's.

[@Deafmandalor]

It was lazy writing through and through they want us all doing NG+ for only a change in the welcome at the lodge and no differences in the missions with freestar and United colonies is a huge let down

The fact that Vasco has the processing ability to acknowledge multiverses and trust you after that fact is impressive. On top of that, he’s basically acknowledging his own mental health by staying behind. Where was this character development during the main game?

[@YouCareMoreThanMe]

That’s the point. Theres more than just one universe. Theres more than just one “MAIN STORY”. If you missed that, then you missed the point lol

[@cambennett306]

its a great concept, its just sloppy how they executed it. it becomes tedious doing the same thing again and again hoping you'll run into moments like these and the creativity behind them is wasted when it couldve made the core game better overall. @@YouCareMoreThanMe

[@youredumb]

@@YouCareMoreThanMeit’s literally the same thing repeating itself with a different intro and slightly different dialogue here and there and you actually fell for it

[@masondeross]

Vasco stays behind because there always has to be someone at the lodge, and since Noel and Vlad are dead (the two who normally keep things running), it falls to him as the last member of Constellation other than the player. So he can't travel with the player, and could only leave if the player were the one staying behind; in both cases, he can't follow the player any more. I am not sure how you took it as a way of him saying he was staying behind for his own mental health.

[@cambennett306]

@@masondeross he doesn't state himself why he has to stay, its left to interpretation. maybe he's *just* a machine driven by protocol, but given that he recognizes, speaks for and can guess what his dead companions would say and feel and he can understand something as complex as alternate universes himself, assuming that he isnt sentient enough to decide he just needs a break after all his friends have died is imprudent.

[@bodugok]

Curiously, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias, as it fell, was, "Oh no, not again!" Many people have speculated that if we knew exactly *why* the bowl of petunias had thought that we would know a lot more about the nature of the universe than we do now.

The "Multiple You" universe really makes me want it to become its own questline, where New You and the others have to find out why all of their doppelgangers keep showing up. Eventually, you have to fight a whole army of what is basically yourself, unified against you and the other versions. At the very end, you find out that it wasn't a real universe- it was a "Buffer Space" section of the Unity, where it was storing all the Starborn variations of you. When you enter the Unity to leave, it explains that you're one of the most proliferated Starborn in the universe, thanks to a sudden rise in versions of You beating the other Starborn and reaching the Unity.

I wish they went harder with the multiverse. Like the way the world looks around you. Such as buildings or entire cities can be gone or destroyed looking or even blended together with other cities. Or even let us beable to traverse back and forth between universes like that one mission.

[@DuxGalt]

I think they should have made all the quests line mutually exclusive with an opposing one, such as UC or FC, Crimson or SEC, an a different, opposing arch for Ryujin. Then within these alternate universes mix certain quest conditions based on being different characters. Such as a version of ryujin where Imod was the spy. Or a version of FC where guy is innocent. It would give you more reason to enter another universe. At least to play each faction, and then even playing the same faction might get you a different flavor of the same overall quest.

[@wesleybeaver]

Unfortunately, this is typical of recent Bethsoft games. Set up a good premise and fumble it. Look at Skyrim. It was supposed to be the end of the world; Alduin did not seem remotely that powerful or frightening. The weather didn't worsen over time, no cities were really destroyed by the dragons (what were they doing, playing spades? Getting pedicures?). Nothing -changed-, no matter where you were in the storyline. They applied that formula to Starfield, only their 'First New IP In Decades'(tm) didn't have any of the background that TES did to cover over and diffuse the oops.

[@MrTapelius]

That would mean bethesda would make a good game with deep gameplay, but they can't commit to anything.

[@ssgoko88]

It's not half assed, BGS literally needs to measure the fun of having a totally wacky new universe (that most people won't ever see) against fucking over people who just want to play through the game again. They changed constellation so that your main story beats are different, but left everything else alone so you can still play the game more-or-less normally. Not to mention Bethesda might have released Starfield after the Microsoft acquisition, but they were making the game long before the acquisition, so Starfield can hardly be considered a AAA game. Obviously it's not indie, but it's in the middle of indie-to-AAA. Youre just an easily manipulated, terminally online tool repeating angry comments because it makes you feel smart to tear down the game.

Nope won’t be touching NG until specific DLC gives better reason to. Poorly thought out story with the main story and borestellation it’s like they’ve encouraged the game to be used by streamers and those with no attention span to rush to NG+ for no reason having to restart outposts and gaining money again is a grind if you skip the fetch quests in NG+ the only advantage is your piloting skill level once you’ve remade enough money you can rebuild your custom ship. The “reward” for NG is a slap in the face too the starborn ship isn’t that great even fully upgraded at NG+6 and the starborn armor maxes out at NG+10 and is worst than a standard 3 set legendary armors with helmet,pack and armor lol not worth the effort to do it to have dragon shouts in space. I just restart with a new build like we all did with Skyrim. Shattered Space DLC better have a damn better storyline to it than the failure that was constellations otherwise can safely call it the flop of the year even with the sales at early access.

[@Freekymoho]

I hate how the game has some fairly interesting narrative elements with the starborn; these groups of superhumans chasing the artifacts without really knowing why, hoping something will eventually change, having turned callous by the infinite nature of the multiverse. You get to see a bunch of different perspectives on their situation, from those obsessed with the grind like the hunter, to those that give it up and try to build something like the sanctum. And yet at the end of the game, you just kinda...join the ratrace? leave everything behind to chase artifacts endlessly for no real reason. This immense narrative space is just taken up by offhand jokes, as you effectively become just another mindless starborn drone stuck in the maze

Callous? Settle down? Choose not to go? Its all right there laying out for you.

[@DiosdeAlcázar]

Cora's dad is dead. The others are versions of him but not him. It's not her universe. I'm guessing we start over Vectera because that's where the story originally began. And most times everyone is at the lodge because we always crash a big meeting they were having about obtaining the artifacts.

[@mlmii1933]

The jumps are guided by Unity, you start in Vect because that is where your story started and Unity knows that's where you need to be. The same is true of Walter, Cora, and the other Yous. They end up in the time and place Unity needs then to be ... probably because "You You" are actually special as the Hunter thinks you are since you entering Unity is causing ripples throughout the Multiverse.

I’m close to finishing the main story but honestly seeing the fact multiple people have tortured themselves with even bothering to try Ng+ I feel the game would’ve been better without the whole constellation faction and multiverse rubbish thrown in to try to keep players in game till elder scrolls 6 but if this the new quality of writing it’s a warning sign of what is going to be bad with Elder scrolls next instalment.

[@bronyhub]

Honestly this presents a much more interesting storyline: What if all these events happened while you were actively playing? You find the first piece in the mines and as you play things slowly get weirder. Cities change, an evil version of you starts running around, characters die and come back in the blink of an eye. Your universe is falling into chaos as dozens of others merge into it, and everyone is after the same thing: the artifacts that could be used to stop the madness... too bad your universe is the only one with a complete set and everyone else is there to grab them. Sigh... instead we got the generic loading simulator they churned out.

[@yourfriendlyneighborhoodsc1447]

judjing by the name, the DLC will most likely be related to this alternate universe / NG+ content, so it would be cool if they made it where, if you choose to stay in your original universe, you can encounter other versions of yourself / starborn who came to YOUR universe.

Well, now (discovered, not added) there’s an 11th outcome from NG + after you beat it the 33rd time; you meet yourself that beat the game the first time and confirms it is you and knows the multiverse. Not the same as the one where there’s multiple of you either.

[@donovanjoseph737]

Well, nobody found this on account of the fact you have to go through the game 33 TIMES.

[@MarakMocam]

I wonder what would happen if you used an EM weapon to stun, loot/pickpocket then just leave them alive vs killing them. You get all the artifacts but they aren't dead - especially doing that to yourself.

[@Specter017]

Maybe if Bethesda had not spent ridiculous time building up these different timelines just to make a gimmick for ng+ to look cool and focused on improving a single playthrough, this game would have been great....perfect case of past successes going to your head and thinking you dont have to improve anything

[@IrideaeSnowbloom]

So does anything happen in the Va'ruun universe if you're actually also a cultist?

[@vraeljsp]

The interesting part about being a cultist is you’re not actually a cultist. You follow the religion but you weren’t born of House Va’ruun and are therefore not of the people and not protected by the Great Serpent. Made me really wonder what the point of being a follower of the religion was. They’d probably still try to kill you after an extra dialogue step where you try to argue that you’re a follower of their religion. I haven’t done that NG+ but when you romance Andreja with the Va’ruun trait she still has all of the same dialogue about how when the Great Serpent comes you will die and how that’s hard for her to reconcile, even after she knows you have that trait. The main benefit of the trait is a few times during the main story and the extra benefits from grav jumping.

[@connormacleod7680]

It has a 15% chance for 1 of the 10 alternate universes to appear for you I got lucky and got the grown-up Cora universe and the universe with 2 versions of me within 10 Unities

[@WIZSEGAMING]

I'm on NG+7, and every universe is the same, but I'm okay with that because this looks stupid af. Just getting myself to +10 then I'm going to do all the side missions and actually play the damn game...

[@masondeross]

@@WIZSEGAMING 15% chance for any alternate at all (after which it randomly picks from the 10). But that only starts after the 2nd, so you only have 3-7 as potential alternates. So just over 1 in 7 chance, and you've only had 5 rolls of that die. They really should guarantee the 3rd one is an alternate before making it random chance, just so you can see the exist, and then have the future odds increase every time you get the vanilla universe in a row. I would just make it additive, so by the 6th vanilla in a row you have 90% chance and then the 7th is guaranteed since it would be 105%. Otherwise you are going to have many people who get 20-30 or more without ever seeing one, just because streaks are not uncommon in small sets.

[@WIZSEGAMING]

@masondeross I'm good, the alternate realities seems stupid af. Just let me get to 10 and then I can actually play the whole game.

it's interesting to see that. I did 15 rounds and it was always the same, but on the third round there was a flower pot and I couldn't save the game and had to cancel. I wonder why the Trigger is to change the Realitiy.

I don't play Starfield anymore, but this Bug is fixed.

[@kadapho]

They did way too little with this. Introducing MU in the start feels it removes a lot of consequences. It would have been fun if the worlds were different, maybe in one universe one of your companions could have been a leader and kept some of the systems as a police state etc. I think it is a bit of a shame

[@jennydeaf9O9]

thank u so much for making this

[@emo565]

I think they kind of missed an opportunity on a few of those openings. Like the one when you meet your evil self and having to chase him down while having the different factions hunting you for all the things he did, or the one when you meet your younger self making romance weird cause your parent doesn’t know who’s who or you and your younger self calling each other brothers because it’s easier, or in the one where all of constellation retired you have to try to get the band back together as it were while the hunter was trying to kill them. Just so many ways to make the game better and more replayable.

[@JayAndNightASMR]

The evil self should have been the twist in the main game. Would give the game a proper antagonist.

[@kreeperskid]

The one of multiple versions of you has me rolling lol

[@raventhorX]

so, are all the other new games +'s just resetting the main story with the exception of these unique ones that you can get randomly? Is there a way to get back to your original "world" of sorts or is it legit considered a one way trip? Outside of a few items you supposedly get when you do NG+ are there any other things that change like higher leveled planets or stronger gear?

[@alexiskitt6989]

"Outside of a few items you supposedly get when you do NG+ are there any other things that change like higher leveled planets or stronger gear?" The named weapons levelscale when crossing, and I think you get different versions of the starborn suit, that's pretty much it I think

[@jerzybaranowski]

Ok this sparked a bit of my interest into NG+ because after first run I was a bit disheartened.

[@pauls4522]

I will just keep my "real save" on retainer and pretend any NG+ I encounter never actually happened. I want bethesda to release an update to add more closure to a Only OG universe option. Or at least a way to return to your original universe.

[@robertrodney1877]

I feel that in the universe with those kids pretending to be constellation, the original members went through so much that they left and note and the artifacts to avoid the headaches of dealing with starborn… crazy

[@JYang0602]

Nightmare Sequence/Joke Gameplay of NG+ is definitely the “Multiple Versions of You in the lodge” but the Canon, to me atleast, is definitely meeting yourself and recruiting yourself

[@Zanda641]

The two choices for yourself were follow me or follow me. Who said there’s no choice

[@HouseofWhop1917]

Somebody at Bethesda should of watched Stein's Gate or something. Most of these NG+ are basic or are just killing X person to get all the artifacts in one go. Like we couldn't get a universe where the Crimson Fleet is more Robin Hood like or maybe a force for good? Maybe the colony war is still ongoing in one universe or about to start again. Maybe there's a universe where the grav drive incident never happened and the only planet with human life on it is still Earth, and the few other planets they could travel to before the grav drives. Like for a concept with limitless potential they didn't even bothering tapping into it. -Meeting yourself and making yourself a companion is interesting, but basic. -The one where you meet multiple versions of yourself would be better if you could make them companions, finally having some none good natured followers or even reference Rick and Morty and how they want to band together with multiple versions of you to rule the multiverse, giving them all a common goal. Maybe a quest to track down other starborn yous that exist in the universe and that's how you get the artifacts again. -It would be good if you could convince Cora in the universe you meet her to join forces. I understand your dad died, but just because one of me is a psychopath doesn't mean they all are and deserve death. You could do this with the other multiverses where you just end up killing people too. Have the Hunter, Emissary, or other characters be your sole companion with a different outlook then the main world line.

[@ViscaBarcaInter]

This is actually a really cool concept, that almost no-one will see because no-one will play through it enough times. As with so much Bethesda stuff, they have great ideas that are only half baked in implementation.

Okay fact there just constellation that all pf 'you' is amazing. The fact that bethesda put so much effort into new game plus events is actually amazing.

[@Rockmanbalboa]

the multiverse gimmick would have been a better story point after the first ending, trying to discover how to apply it to you spaceship so your crew can travel with you and meet themselves, have rook you meet all the others you would be a funny thing, those multiverse endings are more fun than what we see in game, sadly they are just used to play the main story again. being able to see small and big details in each multiverse would be better, and being able to decide to not go trough but other constellation character go would be a nice choice. a mod will maybe be done, but being part of the game from the get go was a missed opportunity. there should have been specific quests to universes. there could be a mod for returning to a universe of choice, so you can bring your favorite versions, and one to make adult cora a follower

[@williammoore5081]

A good way to improve starfield, would be to just add a ton more of these differences in NG+ games. Of course, it still need much more than that.

[@David9413]

I really wish that this would have been more of a core feature in the game. Even stuff like randomizing appearances of NPCs in each universe could have done a lot to further sell this dimension hopping fantasy. I also wish there were a few of these were more subtle, like if you enter a universe and the only difference is that some Constellation have different accents, or different skills. Of course, I feel like that would have sort of required a refocusing of the whole design of the game.

The New Game Plus in Starfield is getting more awesome and tragic at the same time.
