Starfield |OT| You're Finally Awake... In Space!

Spacer Scavenger Blattoadea exploding.

Also this ship is pretty much the same as the ship that someone created where it has no center, so all shots guided by the lock on just go right through. Unless I was shooting it from the front or the back, whenever I made runs from below or above I had to deactivate the lock on and aim manually.

I remember someone on reddit posting a similar picture of a dark planet with it’s rings lit up. Another person was asking how that was possible and honestly it’s simple enough of an answer: the sun is on the other side.

Todd Howard has discussed how 2001 and that era of space films were inspirations… all of those movies have film grain and blown out colors, so I didn’t know why I was seeing “my HDR is broke” for months. I think people are so brainwashed into thinking every color and light refraction has to have this hyper-realistic (NOT actual realistic) lighting and color scheme… but just like directors that you can point to a specific color timing, games WILL be the same way - Cyberpunk is no different.

I love that all of these shots together looks like they were taken by a journalist chronicling the adventures of your hero :green_heart:

The current ship I’m using, made after scrapping the Frontier. It’s design takes a similar approach to the Frontier of only having 1 Hab, attached to the cockpit, with everything else thrown around to make an ugly but fairly small ship that’s very low to the ground. Only on ladder when I step inside for the docking port.

That sounds like a lot, 200+ devs.

See, this is the kind of stuff I didn’t expect from BGS. But this is some cool attention to detail.

I also noticed it right at the start of the game. I saw a guy sitting on his chair and on the table was a burger, I took it and he said something along the lines of “sure, take it, I wasn’t gonna eat that.”

Cool, little stuff.

On Vectera after the mining accident? Because I would be surprised if you didn’t get a bounty doing that anywhere else. Speaking from personal experience of going into a restaurant taking the food on the empty table because I wanted to see what it in my menu.

Also whenever I lift up an object marked as steal.

Yep. Right after the beginning bit in the mine.

I just finished my first playthrough of Starfield and began NG+. Clocked around 140 hours.

And this might be my favorite video game of the last 10 years. I was so immersed in this universe and story, more so than even other Bethesda games, which I’ve loved. I don’t know. Seeing the constant dragging of this game by the media and gaming community is unreal. I find this game to be special.

I love the world building and lore. Like all Bethesda games, it’s lived in and very immersive with so much to take in. The music was fantastic as always. The graphics are beautiful, easily Bethesda’s best game aesthetically. The gunplay was great. I am a huge fan of this main quest and story. And I don’t know. The Bethesda magic was here in spades. I had like ten “Holy shit!” moments just in the back half of the main questline. It was just a ton of fun all around.

I cannot wait for the Shattered Space DLC and whatever more is to come. Like mods on console maybe.

I did a kill almost like this one. Ecliptic was sitting down when I entered the room. I popped three in his dome. He just sat there in the same position and facing the left wall. Didn’t move an inch. Dead as a door knob. John Wick’d dat ass! I loved it. Haha!

Welcome!

And agreed :wink:

Nothing major, we have all likely already seen this but hey. Also comparing the 2 spacesuit really makes the Mantis suit look more alien.

Another new random encounter, a ship with a dead crew and a radiation leak. It’s similar to the gas leak, but it’s contained to certain areas of the ship, instead of it being in the entire ship.

There’s so much stuff I never encountered in this game. Awesome.

Oh, it’s seemingly endless. I’ll quote myself from the discourse thread:

Just yesterday I stumbled upon the Juno encounter, which was great and very sci-fi, and The Pale Lady, which was creepy AF, and then the Reliant Medical Organics Lab on Beta Ternion I, which was pretty intense and action packed with a vibe straight out of Aliens.

And that’s all in one session! And all just randomly discovered, not even through overheard conversations or anything.

I’m so in love with this game it’s crazy.

One thing that I found that I was glad to see was still there, was the Skyrim space program. There are certain animals that reflect melee damage and because I wasn’t paying attention to the scanner info, so after using an EM weapon to knock out a group.

I used my Va’Ruun blade with Instigating to see how much damage I could do in total, and suddenly I was flying into the sky dead.
