nublood Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 From the IGN review: Quote When I discovered that so much of space flight is effectively a series of non-interactive cutscenes, it largely shattered the illusion of exploring a vast universe. It’s impossible not to compare Starfield to the way you freely enter and exit planets’ atmosphere in No Man’s Sky, so it’s a bit of a letdown every time you see a planet and remember it’s just a picture of a planet you’ll never be able to reach by flying toward it. It’s something that happens a lot. That literally sounds like something out of the PS1 era Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh. Between this and calling and Indy dev writer the reason AAA development is lazy and greed filled and should just try harder, beginning to think IGN are full of morons. 1 hour ago, Commissar SFLUFAN said: While that's usually the case, I'm not sure if that would be possible with the Game Pass version as those files tend to be somewhat non-standard or you simply can't access the .ini file. does this mean many mods won’t work if you’re using the Game Pass version?

I honestly don't know how well mods "play" with the PC games in the Game Pass ecosystem. In the (highly unlikely) event that I would decide to play Starfield, I'd opt for the Steam version rather than the PC Game Pass version (not that I actually subscribe to Game Pass anyway). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I can readily appreciate and admire both the concept and (a fair amount of) the execution of what Bethesda sets out to do with their games. I just wish I found them more compelling to actually play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea. I have gamepass but embarrassingly enough I don't have $35. At midnight I get paid so then I can get the free access. I won't play it until tomorrow evening.
