Starfield is Just Getting Started

Starfield was one of the most anticipated titles in Xbox history. It landed well for some but not very well with most and has had its share of trouble since its launch but in a recent interview with ‪@MrMattyPlays‬ Todd Howard is saying some things that have me wondering - is Starfield just getting started?
Starfield is a 2023 action role-playing game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. In the game, the player character joins a group of space explorers who must venture to various corners of the galaxy to acquire mysterious artifacts.

I hope the expansion has some character. My main complaint with the main game is that is just feels sanitized. None of the characters have any personality. It's has no grit. It's just safe and bland.

IMO they fell to the success of Skyrim instead of sticking to development they knew, they had this “we need 10 year engagement!” Because of that starfield suffered for it…leaning too much on procedural generated content, enemy placement became predictable, every corridor and loot placement was repetitive. I was so stoked for this game, hope it gets its phantom liberty moment as well

I'm looking forward to jumping back into Starfield full time if I can stop playing Fallout4 . I understand Bethesda games more now than I did when Starfield launched and the added features and new content have me excited. I'll always wish I could take off fly and land the ships but hey ho.

I jumped back in after not really liking it after my first playthrough. I have recently put 200 hours into the game and I can tell you it's absolutely incredible

The only reason im even considering the DLC is because I didnt spend on the base game, it came with my CPU Otherwise i don't know how anyone that paid money for Starfield could ever think it's a good idea to buy the dlc. If the game is just gonna eventually be good due to dlc and mods, just buy them all for $15 in a couple years

[@senaris]

​@@ReforgeGaming Not sure why you're being aggressive. Playing Fallout 4 from start to finish, including all DLCs, sidequests, settlements, and raiders, should take way longer than 100 hours if it's your first playthrough. This doesn't include mods, which are a different kind of rabbit hole. Finishing Starfield also takes almost 20-30 hours, and I'm not accounting for 100% completion nor for actually building settlements on each planet to make a multi-resource farm. So yeah, I expected this kind of response from a braindead viewer, not from a fully-fledged KZbinr who throws opinions online. Looks like your reputation is well-deserved. Enjoy your week, mister.

[@mattsharpey361]

Awesome game already, better after the May and June updates and the Creations launch. Subjective is the fundamental term when it comes to games. The thing I’ve found most telling about the reception to Starfield is how people have reacted to other people’s enjoyment of it… Closely related to an entire subject around the absurd polarisation in politics imho, and more a symptom of the damage social media has done to our entire culture than any real, tangible critique of what people “should” or “should not” enjoy. In short, people are mentally ill ubiquitously in 2024 and it is totally normalised in western society.

[@lf7877]

Perfectly said 👍

[@JuanDiegoCorreaQuintero-ss1pd]

Buddy, as a Bethesda fanboy you obviously have no standards whatsoever when it comes to games, but I will still try to explain to you why this game is so hated. It's because Starfield is not a game, it's a starting point to a game. Think of all of the features Starfield could have had, do you think Starfield lacks so many features because Bethesda thought it would make the game better? Of course not, they didn't add those features because they knew modders wouldbdo it eventually. Do you see now why you're so wrong and why I'm saying you have no standards whatsoever? A game simply CANNOT rely on mods. You're supposed to pay 70 dollars for a good game, not for a chance to make a good game. Have some standards.

[@vlkark7480]

@@JuanDiegoCorreaQuintero-ss1pdhave you ever thought that maybe the game just isn’t for you and that it’s not bad? The game is objectively fun and the “lack of content” arguement is total bs considering I’m 400 hours in and still find new quests and armor and weapons and things to do

The modding community has stepped up quite a bit. With the CK being dropped, PC users will have frontline access to mods that will, just like Skyrim and Fallout, extend the life of the game into the stratosphere. Playing Skyrim right now... with 2,737 Mods.. but still...

[@joeswarson4580]

"Its just getting started" is the worst mindset to have. Why are we just expected to want to play games that are half-baked, and sit around giving money to bethesda while they gradually make the game slightly more playable over the course of multiple years

[@johnathanday3011]

I can say for myself I’m looking forward to shattered space, and I defend the game too. I think an online starfield would be fun, in where we can choose to be UC FC or CF, and either explore or fight one another or even work together either way.

[@traumagain]

I will definitely come back for another run …. Can’t wait for land vehicles and shattered space dlc🔥🔥

[@SimmerCK]

Creations are already helping me shape the game to how I want it. My resource containers now hold 10 times their normal contents. My followers follow me with less annoying behaviors, and Rosie Tannehill officially functions as my ship's doctor, with the ability to heal me. All I need now is the land vehicle, more POI variety, Shattered Space and additional quests. Another thing I would like is a faction reputation system and NPC responses to good and bad reputations.

[@davidgarcia2093]

Its refreshing to see someone talk positively about Starfield, in my opinion, it doesnt deserve the hate despite the controversy, its a good game! Just needs some work in certain aspects, some tweaks here and there, and some QOL improvements concerning some major gampeplay mechanics. I have 3 suggestions: 1. Resource management in ouposts - It can be annoying to connect some storage units or pull resources from massive storage, so a better way to attach storage units together would be nice, and a console to pull specific resources out of storage containers would be helpful. 2. The temple grind is so tedious, that its so unrealistic to try and get to NG+ 10 with fully upgraded powers... maybe a change to the way temple quests are started would be cool, like direct communication with vlad on the watch, and of course planet traversal would improve the grind but they're already working on it, I just hope the vehicle is quick lol 3. Coordinates, for the love of god 😂 this one should have been included from the get go like the map. Starting a NG+ run trying to find the outpost location you had before is a nightmare, so that's almost a must have. Anyone agree?

[@ThatGuyYouShouldKnow]

As a Death Stranding fan, I think Starfield would have been a perfect platform for shared outposts on planets mixed into the RNG of the Premade facilities

[@EggEnjoyer]

The only issue is than an overhaul would break mods most likely no? I’d Bethesda going to go back and repair all the broken paid mods if they overhaul this game?

It all stems from a personal sense of entitlement. That you deserve something without working for it. When it comes to games the gamer community has been spoiled with amazing games that have set the bar unbelievably high. With each game studio attempting to compete with each other for the gamer's money. Consider this. How long did it take to play and beat a game 20 years ago? 15 hours tops? Now it's almost expected for a game to contain 100+ hours of content. For the same 60$ that was paid 20 years ago. The expectations continue, HD 4k graphics, 60 fps, engaging stories. The list goes on and on. No matter how good your game is. People will pick it apart and make it terrible. Selectively edited glitch montages that go viral. Review bombing. Demanding more and more game for the same 60-70$ that you paid for a game 20 years ago. That is the definition of entitlement. Demanding more for the same price.

@@boomer150 This is like saying consumers are entitled for not buying a new iPhone every year anymore. People pay for novelty. If the cost of gaming new and novel games that appeal to players is a $100 game that no one wants to buy, then the industry is cooked.

What if it was the Creative Engine 3.0? (I strongly dislike this engine) but picture a Starfield laid out like Minecraft or FO76; each player can have their own server/ planet and spacestation then travel to a common neutral space (GTA online) to interact with 30+ players at a time. Add your friends and their companions (Co-Op) as shipmates or build your own fleet with them. (Guild) as you mine, outpost, and bounty your way to elite status and prestige across the galaxy. Be the space trucker, open a Chunks franchise, challenge other fleets, build your street gangs or role play on the side of the UC/ Freestar Rangers and go after other player and NPCs. Or simply craft unique items for your pet teramorph and unlock secrets of the Starborn in the furthest corners of the galaxy while traversing treacherous terrain on hostile planets. Build your empire amongst the stars...

Even the upcoming story expansion has little interest for me. I'm worried for ES6 at this rate.

I would like to think it's just getting started. I'd like to see where they can take it. I'm just not sure if the demand will be there. We don't actually know how profitable the game has been or has the potential to be. As you stated, it's got to go to PS to reach a critical mass. I hope the 10 year promise holds true.

[@2killzore]

The more mastery the team has over the game engine and the more familiarity they have with the current hardware the better the content will be I think the game will be quite different in 3 years. And elderscrolls 6 will come near the end of the console cycle and be a hit like Skyrim and also on playstation 5.

[@asheroc4709]

I tried to play it again last night and my god it’s just not good. The writing the million loading screen. The complicated docking procedures. BORING. It’s just boring

Bethesda wants modders to finish the game for them for free and to use MTs to generate more money.

Starfield Online not being on the creation engine would be a good thing. Maybe the new engine could allow us to fully explore planets and space without having to fast travel to each section of the planet and space.

[@jeffthompson6162]

Only thing about starfield as exploration like NMS is its a bit too realistic as it will take hours if not days to enter the atmosphere of a planet lol. i'll take fast travel in this one lol.

[@Dave_Langer]

@@jeffthompson6162 no it wouldn't. No space games were you can land on a planet manually does it take hours.

[@jeffthompson6162]

@@Dave_Langer You're not going to grav jump from the moon to earth lol. it's like a 3 day trip in real life. I'm saying in Starfield it would take days to land on a planet. Starfield is not like NMS or other space games. Travel through space is more realistic on a time scale. So exploring through space without fast travel would be extremely time consuming and boring.

[@Dave_Langer]

@@jeffthompson6162 Its a video game. Just stop doing this to yourself. All that stuff I am talking about was in the game but Bethesda took it out. Nothing in Starfield is realistic. The excuses you guys make for this MID game is getting really sad. Todd even talked about they took the fuel aspect out of the game so you would not get stranded in space. That right there shows you at one time you could travel from planet to planet but bc of the S probably they took it out. The starfield we got is not the starfield that was originally planned or promised. also the whole grav drive nonsense is just silly , so Bethesda wants to tell me they can warp from solar system to solar system but they cant travel in that star system from planet to planet. The logic does not even make any sense. Its just an excuse bc they had to water the game down for series s.

You have to be a certain kind of gamer to enjoy Starfield. It's not for everyone. They should have known this is a game that was not going to appeal to the casual audience. Most gamers have lower attention spans or are ust impatient and get bored easily. If you can't hold their attention, they are gone. I played the whole game through, and the criticisms are valid. It's very bland and lifeless. I tried exploring a lot of the game, and there's just really nothing. Planets all have a copy and pasted layout. For example, dungeons and caves all look the same on every planet. They couldn't think that running around scanning planets would be fun. Same human enemies and the same buildings on every planet. Poor writing and lack of interesting characters. Way too much grinding. Skills are boring. The powers can be fun but weren't worth the hassle to max them out. I enjoyed the ship building, but other than that, there's just not much. It just needed to be a fun game with great exploration like past Bethesda titles, and it just doesn't do those things well at all. The worst thing a game can be is boring. I don't think the DLC will be meaty enough to change the game it needs a lot more gameplay depth that makes the game fun to play.

[@michaeldietz2648]

Too little too late, mostly everybody already played this game and they’re not gonna go back. Video games need to be completed at launch to give everybody the full experience. Most people only play a game once and never go back.

Ask Cyberpunk Definitely gonna give this another round

[@killdahobeetch782]

What did Todd lie about with Starfield?

[@ReforgeGaming]

i thought the interview was very candid and honest

[@lonewulfmo9128]

Good quality video. Good narrator. I think reforge should be a general video game commentator like matty plays or baldino. Like them he has attractive personality. Theres a guy called dreamcast guy. He used to make these really awesome gaming videos....and then he got into console fanboy stuff n the quality of the videos went down n they got boring exact same thing with crap gamer. Just my opinions.

[@christianlandgrave5796]

I think the problem is that Starfield DID copy No Man's Sky. Starfield is a bad rip-off. Worse story, strictly single-player, worse building mechanics, worse planetary systems/generation, you can barely use your ship, and there are tons of loading screens. Starfield has great combat mechanics, but abysmal combat AI. It's a bad rip-off. It should have either not been a rip-off or been a good one. I didn't even play NMS until after Starfield.. Starfield was just that bad that it made me try NMS lol Even Spacebourne 2 isn't half bad and that game is made by ONE GUY

[@ROADKIL80]

Starfield is "Just getting started" like the first plunger push in a clogged toilet. Its a giant pile of crap and fiddling with it so it flushes is the best youre getting. XBox is a toxic company right now, where game development is virtually impossible. Starfield will never be more than skid marks on the toilet bowl that you hope go away. Its symbolic of the anti gamer culture dominating the megacorps right now. Sony is no better, so dont think this is a fanboy thing. The video game industry is a clown show of activists & incompetents more worried about keeping people they dont like from getting jobs making video games, than actually making video games. I am a fan of Todd Howard -- he needs to get away from XBox asap. He will never put out another good game until has total artistic control again. As for fixing Starfield -- that turd has sailed.

The grace this garbage of a game is getting is on another level surpassing CD Projeck Red’s debut. The difference with Cyber Punk and Starfield in the beginning was that Cyber punk wasn’t trash, it was just a little broken, what makes Starfield a** is the way it was developed, it was trash since the beginning, sorry not sorry, I call a spade a spade.
