So If i don't choose ng+ and have done all the side quests and companion quest, what's left to do in the game? Base building and Ship building?
I jumped into a system that was full of crim pirates, and it was not a pretty sight as i panicked to get power from weapons into the grav jump to run away, not my proudest moment. Lol The space combat puts me in mind of Wing commander and a Privateer, which is good as the combat in both Elite and NMS is not that good, ED combat was and still is a massive pain to get to grips with, and i found the combat in NMS to be somewhat lacking in scope......so i think SF gets a good balance in the space combat overal.
Ok so now pls stop sucking each other's dick, start the freaking 'one patch a week' routine and fix/improve your goddamn masterpiece ffs, k? Thank you. Is it really so hard, with modders releasing and updating mods every 12hrs? (not that they can't afford to pay 5 peeps to play the game 8hrs a day and start squashing bugs nor that we always have to wait 6 months minimum to play games properly. This is getting tiresome, sheesh).
I'm guessing millions on consoles then because Steam barely hit a quarter million at launch https://steamdb.info/app/1716740/charts/
Concurrent is not the same as total, but yeah probably a lot went for game pass. It only makes sense. However, in Europe, Starfield is in the top 5, week 1 sales of 2023. And this does not include game pass. https://www.videogameschronicle.com...fth-fastest-selling-game-in-europe-this-year/
Another DLSS mod but this time it has proper, in game options. https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/2751?tab=description
What I find odd is that the characters can look really good, but can also look really bad... I think it's to do with the types of lighting within the game world, some types just make the character models look absolutely horrid, and there seems to be a separate lighting system for characters you are talking to in the multiple choice dialog window part. These are screenshots I took... just to note, I am not using high settings.
yes, it was on that city of mars Usually NPCs quality is decent or good (some very good) despite some "random" copy&paste in new atalantis.. BUT in that city of Mars, some random NPCs really looks crappy, and that old lady really had eyes rotating like crazy BTW, I may found a branch of quests with a bit of story.. far better than main quest. Stil doesn't change AI sucks, far lower quality than skyrim, fallout 4 and even oblivion in many aspects.
How dare people actually enjoy playing this game, did they not get the memo from the internet bubble? Lol
About the staring https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/2737 You can also just add this to your "bat" in case you have already once (since many "mods" add values there). reducing the eye follow to 5 meters i guess, but its refreshing.

Yep I posted it in here on Saturday I tested it and it worked well but I was struggling to get the settings right for a sharper image without jaggies for some reason so went back to Luke's.
Almost a month since release, still not even one substantial update. By this time Remnant 2 had like 2 or 3 performance improving patches, BG3 had like 2 or 3 patches with thousands of changes.
With such a great modding community, Bethesda can call this one done and move on to the next one. They didnt even have to bother with DLSS and such, others did it at no cost to Bethesda. GG
