Starfield is the latest game from Bethesda Game Studios, The creators of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and The makers of the Fallout games. It is a sprawling sci-fi RPG set in the 24th century, where humanity has left Earth and colonized the galaxy. Players create their own character by picking a background story with a set of skills and traits, as well as up to three modifiers. It is exclusive to the Xbox Series X and Series S consoles and Windows PCs, and is available on Xbox’s Game Pass service.

The game is full of references to sci-fi movies from Aliens to Blade Runner, and of course Interstellar. It is also reminiscent of The Expanse, Firefly, and Starship Troopers. The facial animation is on par with other big RPGs, and the voice performances are excellent.

Starfield offers a galaxy with more than a thousand planets, a fully customizable ship, and major decisions to make (and small ones too). Players create their own character by picking a background story with a set of skills and traits, as well as up to three modifiers. After a trippy 2001: A Space Odyssey-style vision, players are given the keys to their first spaceship and sent off in all kinds of different directions. The main quest is not terribly flexible in how it is resolved, but there are plenty of side quests that allow players to act out their character’s morals. There are also numerous companion characters to hang out with throughout the game.

Starfield channels everything that was loved in Skyrim and in Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. Players are constantly finding interesting bits of the history of Starfield’s setting, the Settled Systems, and learning more about their companion characters. There are also incidental moments, like finding another captain singing sea shanties across an open comm, or encountering a tourist ship asking questions about what it’s like to be a captain.

2. Creating Your Character:

The first step in Starfield is creating your own character. You can choose from a variety of backgrounds and skills, which will determine how you can play and what kinds of conversations you can have with other characters in the game. You also receive your own spaceship, which you can customize to a ridiculous degree.

3. Exploring the Galaxy:

Starfield has more than 1,000 planets to explore, but doing so rarely yields interesting results. A large majority of the planets and moons are barren rocks useful for little more than extracting resources. Stick around long enough and you may find a procedurally generated outpost with some space pirates to kill or a generic cave with some junk to plunder, but generally speaking, there’s just not much to see in most of Starfield’s playable spaces.

You embark on a galactic journey to solve a mystery once you have a character and a spacecraft. You can discover intriguing tidbits of information about the past of Starfield’s setting by exploring the Settled Systems, a galaxy with more than a thousand planets. A wide range of characters, including space pirates, alien life, and plants, can also be found.Starfield further undermines its own attempt at realism by making the player far too resistant to the very real risks associated with space flight. Going anyplace poses just a little risk of running into a nest of space scorpions or a vent for deadly gas.It’s quite safe to stroll around on planets with harsh weather, like Mercury (daytime temperatures of 800 degrees Fahrenheit) because I guess your spacesuit is just that powerful.This makes every planet essentially feel the same from a gameplay perspective.

The game’s story starts off slow, but as you progress, it explores faith, atheism, morality, and the point of existence in a universe with no easy answers. The game also offers a lot of discovery, with many incidental moments to find.

4. Narrative:

I wasn’t too impressed with Starfield’s narrative aspect throughout the first 20 hours. The quest writing never really forced me to complete things in order to find out what occurs; instead, it left me to complete things in order to earn money and experience points. In addition, most characters are quite archetypical and dull, with the exception of a few standouts like the witty early-game companion Barrett and a mystery cloaked figure known as The Hunter who frequents bars throughout the galaxy.The game’s narrative takes a while to get going, but as you play it examines concepts like faith, atheism, morality, and the purpose of life in a cosmos devoid of simple explanations. The game also offers a ton of discovery opportunities and hidden incidental moments.

5. The Conclusion:

The game Starfield is exactly what it sets out to be. The game is surprisingly not terribly buggy, and all of its systems are operational and simple enough to comprehend, so everything works. However, it is devoid of any sort of compelling element that would compel you to want more. Some video games have a central mechanic that players like doing just for enjoyment. Not one of those games is Starfield.If you want to spend dozens or hundreds of hours searching for the fun in Starfield, be my guest.

According To Critics, Starfield is a game with lofty goals that is frequently a total mess. Jim Stephanie Sterling, one of the most well-known and quirky critics in the video game industry, gave the game a 4/10, the lowest rating it has ever received and the lowest ever noted on Metacritic. The best comment made by Sterling is that the game has the feel of a “shallow ocean.” Because The Launch Was Not Good The Game Is Called “A Game of Grand Ambition and Messy Execution”.

Our Rating Is : 7.5/10
