Spawn_of_Apathy Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 And now we see what the exclusive AMD partnership gets us. No new or advanced AMD exclusive features, just a marketing push for new GPUs. Newly detailed Starfield system requirements are actually just kind of an AMD ad | GamesRadar+ WWW.GAMESRADAR.COM You shouldn't actually need a brand-new AMD card to run Starfield decently Quote https://www.amd.com/en/gaming/featured-games/starfield.html#bundle?sf267832076=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure bud, you keep talking about those sales in order to justify the shit-tier gameplay. Maybe if it sells more it won't play badly! Fallout 4 sold less than half of Skyrim, and I see you ignored Fallout 76 there. Could it be there's some sort of... trend? But even if Starfield sells 200 billion copies, that's irrelevant to quality. Unless we're here to argue that McDonald's is the pinnacle of human cuisine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll wait till it gets Fallout levels of updates then it'll be a bunch of free please play me stuff and I'll give it a shot I think it could really depend on how Starfield opens the game to you. I’ve often thought Bethesda did a pretty solid job introducing you to basic mechanics, themes, and tones of their game in the opening couple hours. But if you didn’t care for the world you could lose interest very shortly after. Either before getting to the next town or faster. I too get super bored with the intro area to No Man’s Sky. It’s the resource gathering and crafting. I just don’t want it. Or at least not as much. Maybe if there was an action packed few scenes before it. Like the intro to KOTOR and I crash landed on the planet. Being introduced to resource and crafting mechanics then wouldn’t be as bad, and I’d be looking forward to getting back out into the action to continue the story. Based on past Bethesda works I suspect Starfield will start off with more of an action packed hook before opening up. By which time you could probably just follow quest markers very linearly to avoid getting bored. I just hope I like the world and there isn’t too much if any reliance on resource gathering and crafting. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I really hope they don't emphasize on resource gathering and crafting or make it mandatory to move the story along.
