Starfield | Review & Discussion Thread

[Petekilla]

Of course Sony has shill reviewers. No way else to explain FF16 not having a 60 meta. Game is straight up trash.

Same applies to Starfield. With all the bought and paid for shills real score is like -30. I’m still waiting for skillup’s impressions because at least I trust that dude.

Good. Get fucked Ms

FF16 is not a Sony game.

87 is a great score. I still think this game is what MS needs, it didn't fall short. Its a AAA game that's very popular and got great reviews. Now they should think about how they achieve this once or twice a year.

Agree here in parts.
It is a good score indeed and MS needs it.

But MS needs even more a killer app like Halo used to be.
Said that it is needs too a regular release schedule.

confirmation bias much?.

as Luke once said:

-Being a fanboy makes you stupid.

That’s RedFall though my guy. Even if you’re a zealot, how can you defend that? Lol

 

[Petekilla]

Yup.. and I agree with you there. But let's not act like the PS fans don't do the same thing. Every single exclusive has been mediocre so far this generation and nothing but sequels/remasters. I'm really hoping that ND will buck that trend with their new IP.

You’re capping and you know it. Lol

 

[Petekilla]

First of all they made Skyrim which did more for its respective generation than TLOU. I’ll give you RE4 but they should be able to talk big on their game if they’ve previously released generational game changers.

I don’t know about the rest of your post but you’re talking like Bethesda has zero credibility.

“which did more for its respective generation than TLOU“ LMAO TLOU had a very successful TV show that dominated pop culture. Walk down the street and ask people what do they know more Skyrim or TLOU. GTFOH you sound stupid.

 

[Petekilla]

No.. they really weren't great. Returnal wasn't a great game by any stretch and definitely didn't get high review scores. Demon Souls is a remake. R&C is also a sequel and GT7 is also yet again --- a sequel. The games you mention offer nothing new to the table while Starfield does. We're talking about original IPs here.

You sound stupid and you’re moving the goalpost. Lol

Starfield's planet exploration is way more limited than I expected, and yes there are boundaries

Starfield's idea of exploration feels more like pointless filler.

Starfield is nothing special because of its contemporaries. Zelda, Hogwarts legacy, BG3 and others provide a more polished and fulfilling experience.

Returnal alone is better than the whole MS gaming library.
You just lost any credibility you had left.
Also, Starfield offers nothing new: it rips Mass effect, NMS, the outer worlds and fallout, while badly stitching it together, providing a very unpolished experience.

BGS and Microsoft with they had something with the cultural impact TLOU had.

So 5 secs loading screen everywhere. I guess SSD magic matters now.

To be fair Bethesda used to have TES Skyrim. The problem their formula are not novelly bombastic anymore.

Seems like my GPU may be able to reach 60fps at 1080p (resolution I play in my PC) if I cut one or two things from ultra, or enable FSR. I'll play around with settings to see if I can get over 90 since my monitor can pull 144.

I think the information we have shows the game using Series X's extra potentially pretty well. Series X has over the Series S: - 2.56x the base resolution, plus: - higher quality shadows - higher environment LOD - higher vegetation LOD - higher texture LOD bias - 4x res of cubemap reflections...

That's just a type of near future human using skin cloaking technology. People should stop criticising.

 

[ethomaz]

Man the gunplay is bad... I thought reviewers are saying it was good.

PS. How I miss Destiny.

 

[Entropi]

It’s just a creative choice.

 

[Swift_Star]

The way people are on each other throats on Era thread and Twitter tells me everything I need to know to confirm how xbots were really expecting this to be BGS TOTK moment.
Shame on them.

i highly discourage the use of FSR below 4k resolution with 1440p input (FSR quality)

it looks really bad at 1080p, and just kinda bad at 1440p.
