Huh. With all the bad reviews about #Starfield I thought aah i'll be okayBut guess what..It sucks soooooo very hard.. :amaze: The UI is crap, gameplay sucks terrible, space is just a map without ground, it's all cut scenes, and the game is just dead and empty overallIt's not that it has a lot of bugs or is un-playable, the game in general sucks just very much :sadlinux: Would have expected a lot more from #Bethesda

@stux I couldn’t disagree more. This is the most fun I’ve had playing video games in years. I’m not really sure what you were expecting.

@hammoncr A story :blobcatgiggle: It's all just a maze with a UI from the 90's :flan_laugh: I played Cyberpunk recently and this falls so very short, on graphics alone

@stux Generally my plan for all expensive games. Too many disappointments in the past, so I wait. Still waiting on a big price drop for Elden Ring. I have 2000 games on the various platforms, so I really don't need another.

@stux Bethesda games have always had crap graphics, did you not play Oblivion in ‘06? Every NPC literally looked ill lol. The UI could maybe use a little work I guess, but it totally fulfills what I expected a Bethesda game set in space to feel like, and even exceeds my expectations. The ships are so cool!

@hammoncr Haha that's true i guess :blobcatgiggle: I did not no! For the graphics reason :catblush: The ships part is quite nice but i miss a lot of freedomI can make this in Unreal Engine within a few weeks and with much more gaming features itself

@stux I learned from Cyberpunk 2077 & many other games to not believe the hype when it comes to this stuff.This game was WAY overhyped.

@stux i have to agree. 😐First thought - where's the reflections? Where's the shaders? Still using worldspace lighting?The face renders are atrocious, feels like a rollback to Oblivion.And capped at 30fps on console for what reason? You ain't chewing shit up in graphics, I can tell you that.Overhyped No Mans Sky. Pretty disappointed initially here. Maybe the gameplay will make up for it. But I doubt it.

@hammoncr Here's a short clip from my universe, planets map i made in UE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKFvDDjr5PoThis took me about 2 hours or so :bloblaugh: it's just a recording but the planets are "full size" and the space in between can be varied etc etcit's sooo easy

@stux I’m not trying to be rude but that didn’t look as good as you seem to think it does. Starfield looks better. Are there cities full of pickpocketable NPC’s in your game? Outpost building and management? Do you have a team of voice actors? Are there at least four major quest lines outside of the boring main quest line as well as hundreds of side quests? I don’t think you’re very familiar with Bethesda games in general to be honest.

@hammoncr hahaha but ofc not :flan_laugh: thats 2 hours work but it's about the idea not the details 😉 That's why i said a few weeks, the most work would be the build out of the worlds but things like voice, speech, avatars can all super easily be generatedEsp with OpenAI backend for example, it's quite simple to create a story line + characters that can speak including mouth movements etcIf this took them 25 years it's just insane

@stux Saying it took them 25 years is just marketing bs, what they mean is that this is the culmination of all the work they’ve done creating RPGs for the last 25 years. This is the company that made the most commercially successful RPG of all time (Skyrim, and imo that’s their worst game). This game is going to sell like bonkers and be rereleased probably at least three times. If you can actually do this as well as they can, you’d be stupid not to.

@stux With all due respect stux, I didn't expect you to step into that dunnigkrugerpoop that is disrespecting failed hard work. Didnt play SF, and not gonna vouch for its quality butYou should know better than to believe you could "finish" any creative engineering product at scale within a few weeks let alone completely on your own.If you could, you should be swimming in products and profit.Even if you offload assets to AI Its not like they spent those years just coding to a known target.

@stux I havent played it but, based on what I’ve seen of it I would agree. Looks empty, depressing and omg some of the NPCs and voice lines I’ve seen…its like they weren’t even trying.Cyberpunk 2077s release was better than this..

@stux that is funny you fell for the hype man. 80 in metacritic is bad? What did your zombie game get? What Bethesda games have you played? I played them all since Morrowind and this is exactly what I expected. The hype made people think it was going to be more like No Mans Sky but they were public about you not being able to fly in antmosphere and stuff.

@stux yeah it looks shameful. I def think you could make it in a few weeks considering they're reusing so much from their previous games, you could probably reuse a lot of their assets. The trailer that came out forever ago where you could see what was clearly a reskinned FO4 laser rifle told me all I needed to know

@stux I'm a big fan of Bethesda and it pains me to have to hate this beta. No mapping, no ability to set place markers, and the New Atlantis is like a badly designed mall, I had to find out by accident through an elevator in a back ally how to get to'the well' and never found the MedLab. It's like Micro$oft put a gun to Bethesdas head and said 'Release this beta or else'
