Stranger Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 I'm so pumped for Friday. I bought the digital premium edition last week in anticipation. I wish they would have released an elite series controller rather than the base model controller. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

9 Nines Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 I read that Starfield will be so good and popular that many NFL teams are concerned about players playing it all the time instead of practicing or some even missing gameday play to play Starfield.

Armored Core has been the first game where I have actually utilized all the paddles on my elite controller… usually I just map only one or two of the paddles to sprint and then something like interact Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OilerTitanHybrid Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) People have been exploring 100 thousands of planets in detail over the past few years in Elite Dangerous: Odyssey. I even posted videos of it in action, but yet oldstooge is still clueless, like it hasn't even happened. GTFO. Done. Next.

Lol I've put all the face buttons on the paddles. Never having to take my thumbs off the sticks makes a huge difference in the heat of the moment. I can't go back to a base controller again.

Do you understand the difference between procedurally generated content and actual detailed custom content? The answer is clearly no. Don't hurt yourself.

When they hit Sept 1st, everyone gets access. That's why we can play tonight at 7 central. oldschool 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starfield could be more of a console type game, that is ported over to the PC aspect of it. PC'ers will have to wait for awhile to see what the devs and modders come up with. Just the way it is I guess. It seems weird to me that you are criticizing some games development stage and age while not factoring in the at least 3-5 years of a head start that Elite Dangerous and NMS had. As you said, you are excited to see where it eventually ends up and I get that but it seems weird that you keep criticizing it for being a "console type game" without acknowledging that Elite Dangerous and NMS were exponentially more lacking in the substance dept at this stage in the games life cycle of not even being released to anyone. I don't even know what you mean by "console type game" in reference to features unless it's that you don't expect a decade of updates from the publisher or ability to mod the crap outta it... and yes, I do play PC games and obviously use mods to improve the experience. Just start with and have your entire point be that you don't enjoy games early on in their public lifecycle until it has been worked on for years by internal people and potentially even mods are still necessary. But yes, your point makes sense that as of 9/1/2023 when this game goes live there are multiple other space games that you prefer because they seem to be more fleshed out.

Jamalisms Posted August 31, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 I don't think they're even more fleshed out, based on what Starfield supposedly represents (only a handful of hours until we start seeing behind the curtain). They might be fleshed out differently with a few features Starfield lacks at the jump but they're far from as involved and lack far more than Starfield does. In many ways, they're not even in the same realm of a Bethesda game. It's an unfair comparison for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamalisms Posted August 31, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 Video game reviews are so weird. IGN rated Starfield a 7/10. Pretty mid, I guess. ... but IGN France gave it a 9/10. IGN Brazil gave it a 9.5 and IGN Japan gave it a 10/10. So, which IGN do we believe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
