At the end of the day, Starfield is still a video game - a non-simulator, at that. Nonetheless, I appreciate your effort in explaining the intricacies of time in the game. One thing in this game that was immersion-breaking for me was that most planets and moons's temperature readout don't match particular vistas of a local cell upon landing. For example, in the Mantis questline, the planet the player lands on has a temperature that isn't relative to the surrounding environment.

There has been an informal use of the term "time dilation" in video games for as long as skip-time has been a feature. Being able to progress the in-game time further on Venus in the same menu click as what you'd have on Earth leads people to say that Venus has greater time-dilation with the only form of relativity in play being between the player and the game screen. Of course Venus doesn't literally have time dilation in Starfield and certainly does not meet the standards of the actual scientific definition but real world slang doesn't care about any of that. Confusion then arises because this is supposed to be a science-accurate setting and the slang has added a new and improper definition to the term. As it is, I wish Starfield actually did have more special and general relativity in it. Even the lone example of a generation ship is shockingly linear in its execution.

Great video! Keep these coming as I never even realised the watch had a clock. Do you think youll do lore videos in the future?

I have plans on a va'ruun one with my crazy theory for shattered space but it is going to be a while before I get all the footage. The goal is sometime before summer ends and it's going to run over an hour.

This is something I see a lot of people getting wrong. Local time is just the time it takes for a given body to rotate around it's axis. And what's annoying is that in order to pass time in game you need to wait local time hours, not universal time hours. So if I'm on Venus and I decide to take a one hour nap I'm forced to sleep for 243 hours. No other option lol

Hopefully they add a toggle for that so you can switch to UC time. I use Venus time a lot to reset bugged out objects because all objects reset ever 1000 hours including NPCs.

I think it’d just be weird if you wanna sleep just until daytime and you sleep 1 hr ut happens to be 15 hr local

@@alexhalverson3026 That's why I think we should have the option. For those who want immersion, sleep is UT. For those who want to sleep for 15 hours just to see the sunrise, go ahead!

you keep saying planet... it's a moon, Huygens VII-E is a moon, not a planet. You are standing on a moon, looking at a planet eclipsing a star. Difference...
