Current Events » Starfield got a new update and of course Bethesda had to be Bethesda
The two biggest updates are improved modding support but only through the Bethesda Creations program, and new "Very Low" display settings that don't actually improve performance unless you're on a Steam Deck or running the game at/below 1080p.
Thanks for reading!
I completely forgot that game existed lol
didn't the big modders basically abandon that game pretty early on?

Are we really taking the anti-woke grifters word on this for granted now? Id have thought your desire for factual information would outweigh your petty need to hate on this game, just saying.

The modding scene's nonexistent but Bethesda's been promoting a Creation mod that's about as full-fledged as a standard DLC. They bumped up the max mod size to 2GB.

Both of those things are very good, and it's hilarious to try to spin them as otherwise.

Both the Nexus and Bethesdas official mod page say otherwise, TC. Wanna try again?

Starfield modding scene isn't nonexistant, but it's definitely behind where skyrim/fallout 4 were a year and a half in. Couple of higher profile modders who worked on other Beth games have said they have no interest in making mods for starfield. The base game itself is lacking in multiple areas and many would prefer to work on games that feel more complete.

Oh, snap! Didnt know the Skyrim Together mod team leader counted as multiple major modders.

Stroud sure loves to defend this game for some reason, it's okay for a game to be mediocre.

Aside from the ad hominem, Id agree with you, hence why Im not defending Avowed after it failed to wow audiences.

The modding scene is quite small compared to Beth games of the past, or other current games for that matter.

And yet people constantly feel the need to dig up its supposed rotting corpse to express how much it sucked and theyre glad it sucked. Gee, its almost as if that aint true, buddy.

Case in point, this very topic.

I actually enjoy the game for what it is, and I think it does some very specific things better than both TES and Fallout. It's just frustrating how outside of some earlier QOL updates and having extensive knowledge on what peoples' criticisms are, Bethesda gave the game the "yeah, idk man" treatment.
Thanks for reading!

it's the textbook definition of "overbloat," from menus, to inventory management, ship building, ship combat, but nothing it tries is done particularly well, it's just s tuffed to the brim with... well... stuff for the sake of saying "look at all the stuff!"

meanwhile you get to mars and have to delete someone's emails, put up posters, deliver a book. you thought there'd be aliens? exploration? adventure? nah sorry, this is a ReALiStiC sci-fi game

How many copies did Avowed sell again? For all of the popularity surrounding dunking on Bethesda, at the end of the day, Microsoft is keeping them around since they bring in money unlike Obsidian.

Considering every single topic on Bethesda inevitably devolves into Obsidian is superior to Todd Howard and his gaggle of computer nerds on the system boards, Im merely getting that portion out of the way so we dont get distracted.

I mean...let's be honest here.

This board is pretty Anti-MS/XBox. Though the game certainly did not live up to it's very high expectations, it still is a damn good game with a ton of content and you get your money's worth.

But the console warriors hated it and still hate it even though they have never played it simply because it was exclusive

I guess the most surprising part of this is that Bethesda released any kind of update for Starfield this late in the game. They are notorious for poor post-release game support, only one that seems to get any love is Fallout 76 which was a refreshing surprise since it is an online game that needs new content to stay relevant.

I don't get how you can bungle the infinite potential of space to such an extent that you can't even get people largely interested in filling more of it out.

Dude, it's pretty universally agreed that Starfield is kinda shit and Bethesda dropped the ball hard and on top of that it's getting demonstrably less modding support from the modding community than previous games from Bethesda. Why are you trying to make this a political thing? Sure there was idiots crying about pronouns but don't let that blind you to the reality of the game.

Honestly, this sounds like those people who go to bat for Last Jedi SUPER hard purely because idiot right wingers hate it for dumb reasons.

And your acting like people are bullying a small indie devloper who tried and failed to meet demands.

Bethesda is a big company they can handle people making fun of their mediocre game.

Did I say that? I dont think I did I asked why are we (you included) taking the talking points of the anti-woke grifters at face value, as theyre the ones who were celebrating the Skyrim Together guy announcing he wasnt making a Starfield Together multiplayer mod as if it was some great win against wokeness.
