LadyCrimson Posted June 17, 2023 Posted June 17, 2023 I so far have zero interest in Starfield. After Morrowind (and even Morrowind I wasn't into the story aspect at all), nothing else I've tried has connected at all (well, except that FO:4 doggo) and I pretty much gave up that any Bethesda developed game will ever truly be my thing. ...but if it ever goes on deep sale, and by then very patched up plus lots of mods, maybe I'll take a look one day. 1 1 “Things are as they are.

I am not 100% what it is. Looks like time loop/Bioshock but apparently it is an RPG. I am pretty sure it's going to be First Person though Edited June 17, 2023 by Wormerine
HoonDing Posted June 17, 2023 Posted June 17, 2023 I still have no idea how the proc gen works in Starfield. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

I am pretty sure it's going to be First Person though Yes it is first-person, and because it is inXile I would imagine there's no chance of a third-person option. Also, time travel as a concept really bugs me in all forms of entertainment. If it is possible to go back in time and change anything and everything, is anything real? Does anything matter?

If it is possible to go back in time and change anything and everything, is anything real? Does anything matter? Well, of course, any good time traveling story works with closed loops. In an interactive medium time traveling could allow for some neat cause and effect scenarios, assuming the player will actually have any agency. Dishonored2 and Titanfall2 had a very effective time traveling levels where you could hop between two different time periods at will. As far as story goes, I am not too concerned about it in an inXile game - I enjoyed their titles, but I didn't get particularly invested in their narratives. 1 1

It looks an awful lot like Bioshock, I'm talking dangerously close to copyright infringement. I enjoyed Bioshock and I typically enjoy InXile's games.

melkathi Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 I wonder if modders will be able to add planets. Also, are those 1000 planets procedurally generated or where they generated then populated by hand with stuff?
