Wow, just wow. THIS is what my religious family doesn't get. Us scientists need actual answers, not parables or fairy tales. I was just telling my wife's daughter about this and she agrees. Gives me faith in the next generation.
It's a rare game made to have fun, not to go viral with a bear-fucking ad campaign. What little shortcomings it had were already fixed with mods and if they keep developing for it and adding things to it, it'll easily be a second Skyrim in terms of cash-cow factor.
Most games I played recently, especially AAA games I pirated, got boring or outright annoying due to the gameplay. Starfield's only problem is performance and similar shit, something that can be fixed as opposed to core gameplay like in Bald Gays 3
>It's a rare game made to have fun, not to go viral with a bear-fucking ad campaign
Its a bethesda game. It was designed to go viral because it's a new bethesda game and "skyrim in space". Professional copers and damage control specialists like you trying to pretend this is something more than yet another Bethesda product are so hilarious to me.
>it's just like bear-fucking ads because of the company that made it
You should actually consider suicide, thinking like yours isn't healthy anymore
It IS just another Bethesda product and that's good, that's what we wanted. I dare you to point out what's wrong with that or how it even compares to some third rate AA company outrage-baiting with wokeshit
>It IS just another Bethesda product and that's good, that's what we wanted. I dare you to point out what's wrong with that
The fact that you're continously supporting a conpany that caused nothing but harm to the game industry and sending an overall message that gamers have zero standards and expectations and will not only happily worship a product but also advertise and defend it for free just because it's a BIG BRAND TITLE.
Imagine a world where instead you had actual expectations and standards towards Bethesda and actually held them accountable.

You're being disingenuous. They crafted a game mechanic that forces you to play the gender ideology, or a lack there of certified gender identification, for present day nonsense of What is a Woman! No longer can you use Male or Female but it's now xer, they them, or any vomit inducing mixture there of. If you saw Az's feed you would have seen an NPC you have to meet up with going on about how she is a clone of a he who identified as they them! Az suffered that last bit of gender dysphoria 25 hours into the game! You're not even allowed to opt out of their Commiefornia politics.

That's precisely why his argument wasn't about pronouns. It was specifically about current day political bullshit being put into a science fiction game about space exploration and how it destroys immersion. But the trolls got your ignorant ass hook line and sinker regurgitating the exact same lies to push their agenda. Bravo.

So it's an aesthetic term that applies to gameplay mechanics? Or is nasepunk supposed to mean open world space game? Because if that's what it is supposed to mean Starfield isn't such an achievement it deserves to be it's own watershed game, AND call itself out as the watershed.

damn "realistic space suit" comes up with realistic space suits that's wild i would've expected something more fictional and creative
yeah i think most people would expect a billion dollar company with 7 years to develop a game to come up with something more imaginative than the first fucking generative AI on google using the most generic prompt possible
The only thing nasapunks in the game are the ship interiors. New atlantis is not nasapunk. Cowboys are not nasa. cyberpunk city with neon lights are not nasa. Weird space cults are not nasa.

Cowboys and firearms have universal appeal you fucking gay. John Wayne was the symbol of masculinity for decades whether you were German, Slav, South American, or Indian.
>imagination
i wouldn't call that idea imaginative. mechanically it would reduce the fun of the game and lore-wise, it makes sense that humanity didn't advance as quickly after having to abandon earth after grav-drives destroyed it
Such a backasswards way to justify a lack of creativity in the universe Bes put out, but if it works for you have at it. It's always a waste of a setting when your vision of the future is just modern day with extra earth tones.
i'm not talking about beth's creativity or imagination. it's not great. magic space breathing apparatus is not creative either and would be boring mechanically. this isn't a novel, it's a video game and should prioritize gameplay mechanics imo
they ripped off pretty much everything and there is nothing unique about starfield. if they had ripped off a unique space suit it would have been a bridge too far i guess. it's basically a public domain IP.
>bethesda makes space suits futuristic rubber bubbles >wtf bethesda gay!!!!!!! i want my badass mechanical spacesuit like no mams sky and star citizen!!!!!
the west doesn't have a vision for the future, even when we look at the future we look at it from the perspective of the past. same way cyberpunk 2077 was about how the 80s would look at the future
that's because westoids literally genocided anyone willing to progress the future beyond worshiping morons or anal sex
we don't go to the stars anymore because we killed the Germans who invented it, and Wernher von Braun is now dead.
westoids are gay retards, just going to drown in their own shit until humanity perishes
The companions in this game are so garbage.
They try to make them 'meaningful' by having them get killed off in an event like this was Mass Effect, but it and the universe-hopping NG+ feature just makes them entirely meaningless.
Also you can marry one, have them die off due to plot and move onto the next... while you're at the funeral of your first partner, all with no one acknowledging it.
And the more you complete the game the more you can skip the plot and ignore them.
I wish they had ripped off more scifi shit. Just packed it full of reddit memes referencing Futurama, Hitchhiker's Guide, Star Trek DS9, Battlestar Galactica, Ringworld maybe, you know. It would have been better than this unsalted cracker we have now.
The amount of wokeness in this games confirms that the Stormcloaks will canonically lose just because they were racist chuds. Calling it now, it will be referenced several times in the next Elder Scrolls how Ulfric was a Hitler-type figure and thank god the Imperials won Skyrim. You can also expect for there to be literal Wakanda Warriors in Redguard fighting Whitey Imperials, in this case they will win their war against the White Man because it would be racist otherwise.
Okay, what's so outrageous about claiming God is also the one who created the stars and all that shit?
He didn't JUST created Earth or whatever, the story goes that he's basically the reason for the "Big Bang" even happening to begin with so it's safe to assume he basically also created the whole universe. And if there truly are other beings out there aside from us, whose to say it wasn't also God who created them as an "experiment" or something like that, either before us or after he saw what humanity has done and he wanted to try and improve them in some way by creating something different far far away from us, so we would never be able to reach them? Science in itself is nothing but theory based on logistics and observable things.
>he's basically the reason for the "Big Bang" even happening
This is the last hole the God of the Gaps can cling to. We figured out how the earth formed, so he had to be pushed back to other unknowns like how life and sentience formed. We figured that out, so he was pushed back to space alien shit. We're not finding anything on that so the god of the gaps can only nest before anything we currently know, before the big bang. And in 50+ years we'll figure that out too and the bible thumpers will keep screeching and crying until they finally die out in a few more decades.
Its dialogue for when you’re already married to her retard. Learn what simping means. Also do even a little bit of research about the game before posting.
The simping is mutual. She falls HARD and will practically blow kisses at you whenever you initiate conversation. Also she jumps into your bed and fucks you every time you so much as take a 1 hour nap. Your dick is like meth to her.
>Struck a nerve!
Literally r3ddit: the retort. >How to talk to women
If you think any of those responses were at all charming then maybe go back to your anime visual novels. gay.
I wonder who's the target audience of these romances. Because I've been cringing through the BG3 and now Starfield. It's like writers thought >What would starving desperate incel want in a romance subplot
BG3 is for sex pests, normies are sex obsessed freaks, they think everything is advanced if you're allowed to pretend to fuck it.
I had someone tell me BG3 is a game for adults and I just couldn't be bothered to talk about it anymore.
Fucking busted ass game where everything is broken after Act 1 and virtually half the equipment/stats in the game don't even work, tired of hearing about this sex pest garbage, but that is undoubtedly the sex pest's modus operandi to never shut up about their habit.
The only sex scene I've seen in my playthrough was with Minthara. Everything else was fade to black including drow twins. Fucking pathetic. And then there are Shadowsimps that had to court supposedly bad girl for 100+ of hours. BG 3 "degeneracy" is a marketing ploy targeted at conservative larpers at 4chan and they fell for it hook line and sinker as usual
>Larian marketed to 4chan in a top-secret 4D chess marketing ploy
Obsessed.
All people talk about with that game prior to it even releasing was fucking a bear, speedrunners created a Sex% category for the game. Literally everything I've ever seen about the game is just romance and fucking. Idiot.
>her voice >her femininity in an age of bitch ass feminist female characters >gorgeous >falls head over heels in love with you
Bros… she’s perfect. You DID marry her, right?
So how is the game unironically? It looks extremely barren and even more devoid of actual characters and story than fallout 4 but if it's genuinely good for exploration/doing random shit for 70 hours I might give it a go.
It's full of content when you're doing missions/side quests. If you just want to roam then there's basically nothing.
I've played about 30 hours and I'm enjoying it.
It has a ton of sidequests, most of which are good. The main storyline is questionable. The problem with it is that you are constantly fast traveling, by design. So where I might play Fallout 4 and have fun just walking from one place to another, that's simply not an option with Starfield, my ship can only fast travel from planet to planet, system to system. I can walk from place to place on a planet, but there's not going to be a whole lot to see between points of interests (of which, there will be about 6-8 in your landing zone). Sometimes POIs will have fun stuff to do, but the fact that I had to fast travel to even get there makes it feel bad.
The strange thing is that it's not what it appears. The only reason you can't fly from planet to planet freely is because they intentionally bind your ship to a planet, you're leashed to them. There is a mod to remove the leash and you can literally just fly from planet to planet, it makes no sense why they would restrict the player in that way.
Oh, and I should say that it is a very lonely game, as there are only a handful of companions and they're all bad with the exception of the robot and Sam Coe. Even Sam is questionable because he's clearly a literal cuck since he and his ex-wife are white, and their kid is half-black. Sarah and Barrett just want to tell you about their former gay lovers, and the other chick is an annoying edgelord.
Then you haven't spent enough time around her. She wanted to fuck her mentor, at a minimum, who was the former chair of Constellation. She also apparently fucked around while she was in MAST.
She admired Aja as a mother figure not a damn lover. She literally specifies that she didn’t Aja like that and only admired her as the former constellation head.
I've got about 50 hours so far.
Not even scratching the surface yet, done like 4 star systems, still haven't tried out the outpost system.
It's a lot of content, even if you just count the designed areas and locations. If you count the procgen, which I don't generally, it's basically unlimited.
I went to a random spot on a planet as well and did a few of the procgen locations to see what the deal was, got a bunch of loot and left. Not bad for procgen to be honest.

It wasn't the pronoun option---solely! Stop listening to click bait YouTube lying assholes! He played the game for 25 hours before his rant! Go watch the channel, the more you know.
i don't watch youtube videos, just saw the memes. he sounds easily triggered by stupid shit. i wouldn't dare watch content from a stupid fat weirdo. i just play video games
You watched them enough to be under the impression he was unwarranted in his response.
>I refuse to become aware of context because the correct judgement has already been firmly established...BEEP...BOOP...BEEP...010101010000111000110010001110001100111111
no man i literally just don't give a shit about these social war issues. you are now making assumptions about me while ignoring context yourself. i just play video games
If no shits were given as you claim you wouldn't have known at all about the,as you put it, pronouns issue. You saw some lying son of a whore's video and from it you based your opinion on; as you put it, Az spazzed out over a simple game mechanic of pronouns.
>constant discussion on board about triggered fat pronoun gay
>you wouldn't have known at all about the,as you put it, pronouns issue
it's impossible not to have at least a surface level understanding when you morons spam it all the time. are you retarded?
also there's no fucking "game mechanic of pronouns" it's literally a char creation submenu that i missed on my first character which has no bearing on the entire game
Pronouns other than man and woman? Male and Female? Girl and Boy? Oh!
Dude wat?
>Pronouns other than man and woman? Male and Female? Girl and Boy? Oh!
what are you trying to say? is this supposed to be a game mechanic? you are completely incoherent
>Dude wat?
what didn't you understand? all i know about this retard is from people meming about him. i wouldn't dream of watching youtube videos explaining this insignificant bullshit "in-depth". you know, you keep engaging in these bizarre recursive presumptions where you make assumptions about me based other assumptions you've made about me. you are literally doing the thing you accuse me of doing while ignoring the context of me not giving a fuck about this beyond how annoying it is to have you gays shitting up the board with it constantly
You're being disingenuous. They crafted a game mechanic that forces you to play the gender ideology, or a lack there of certified gender identification, for present day nonsense of What is a Woman! No longer can you use Male or Female but it's now xer, they them, or any vomit inducing mixture there of. If you saw Az's feed you would have seen an NPC you have to meet up with going on about how she is a clone of a he who identified as they them! Az suffered that last bit of gender dysphoria 25 hours into the game! You're not even allowed to opt out of their Commiefornia politics.
Try again!
>i le trolling
ok man
Why is it that whenever some one disagrees with current day thing they're trolling?
it's not about disagreement, it's about calling something that is not a game mechanic a game mechanic. that makes the intention clear as day
They them isn't a game mechanic? Are you high?
got a chuckle out of me at the end anyway. have a good night fucker
> it's literally a char creation submenu that i missed on my first character which has no bearing on the entire game
That's precisely why his argument wasn't about pronouns. It was specifically about current day political bullshit being put into a science fiction game about space exploration and how it destroys immersion. But the trolls got your ignorant ass hook line and sinker regurgitating the exact same lies to push their agenda. Bravo.
regurgitating what lies man? i've already said i don't care about any of that stupid shit. you're right - i don't know what his argument is and i don't care. it's you who is regurgitating to me
i have not called anyone anything other than retarded. might sound crazy, but there are still people on this board who play video games and don't engage with culture war nonsense. you're the one trying to drag me into it and are mad i'm not interested
Why do you keep replying about how much you don't care? Literally just don't react if you say you don't want to engage with it.
because this isn't fucking 4chan man you guys don't even see you're effectively dumping trash in the streets and wonder why i'm annoyed by it. i don't care about the political context of the bullshit, i care that the bullshit is in my path
This is your 4th or 5th reply where you yell about how much you don't care and about how nobody else should care. I think we all know what this is actually about by now.
show me where i've told people they shouldn't care. you're inventing context and engaging in a scenario that doesn't exist. go care about it on 4chan all you want
>I don't care so much that I keep replying again and again and again to prove how little I care
>le reddit comic
Okay newfag.
Is this "I don't care about your silly culture war, you dumb incel chud!" spiel the newest leftypol tactic or something? If you didn't care you wouldn't keep engaging with it, you lying fucking moron rat.
It's actually because the correct judgement in this case isn't worth the fucking time, because it's a correct judgement on a Youtuber's opinion on a milk toast game.
I can just as easily shitpost effectively without the proper "research" that you've done. Which is an infinitely better goal then being seen as the expert on _______'s view on Starfield, but gratz on getting there.
It's bigger than the game and the youtuber. Both of which I care nothing about.
It's no fun if neither of us is invested anon.
>milk toast
You're a mindless gay and you have no self-awareness
The pronouns don't even matter. NPCs will straight up ignore your option and use the normal pronouns. Todd did it again.
>nasapunk
this term brings up nothing but starfield related shit. stop trying to make this corposlop into a catchphrase. it means fucking nothing when it's attached to this dusty glass of water of an IP, holy shit. this isn't even how genres get coined, starfield is just "generic scifi," starfield is what you get if you prompt stable diffusion a year ago with "cool scifi ideas realistic very cool space space suit."
Next time play the game
absolutely, yeah. did u read my post btw?
>no argument
I'll accept the concession then
yeah u can't really argue that bethesda is so desperate that they invented a marketing term for their game. hope they get sued like they did with their last release lmfao, there goes the TES6 money oops!
I guess Elden Ring's credits don't fit the narrative?
elden rangs ain't exactly toddlerslop now is it
Seems like Sujeet Kumar would disagree
this begs the question: why aren't pajeets making games of any scale?
>heh, other studios have been outsourcing too
>this justifies Starfield having been outsourced to TWENTY-SEVEN (27) studios and having literally 80% indian and vietnamese names in their 40 minute long credits
I think the point is that it doesn't matter.
Blame the art leads for this. Then again Bethesda games always looked like complete shit.
>Dilipsun ANAL
>Art Lead - Character
>Laxminarayan Ghara
Here is an argument, if nasapunk is an actual genre what else falls into that genre?
If it's only Starfield then it's the same as when that anon was trying to single handedly make sickpunk? a term.
NMS
ME
Basically any game with space exploration and combat. It's a new genre which retroactively encompasses older games, like Death Stranding and strand-type games.
So it's an aesthetic term that applies to gameplay mechanics? Or is nasepunk supposed to mean open world space game? Because if that's what it is supposed to mean Starfield isn't such an achievement it deserves to be it's own watershed game, AND call itself out as the watershed.
the prefix to *punk genres denotes aesthetic and neither NMS or ME have a modern nasa-esque aesthetic
nasa has absolutely nothing to do with combat and those games have almost nothing in common, other than vague cadences. nasapunk is not a thing, we already have scifi so feel free to try and explain what is so unique about this toddlerslop that it suddenly becomes genre-defining.
I'm paid to post and get (You)s, not read your fanfic blogpost
Whatever it is it looks great
That's just Oblivion.
Oblivion looks good, but it's old with muddy textures
Your own screenshots are blown out with muddy textures.
>mfw my Skyrim looks better than this while running better
Todd please I don't wanna play Skyrim for the rest of my life, please release a decent slop.
1k+ mods skyrim with 3ba and poser is peak game. wish Todd would release Skyrim 2 already fantasy is the best setting for unhinged modding
Well said anon. Good to see a 3-digit IQ post every once in a while
damn "realistic space suit" comes up with realistic space suits that's wild i would've expected something more fictional and creative
yeah i think most people would expect a billion dollar company with 7 years to develop a game to come up with something more imaginative than the first fucking generative AI on google using the most generic prompt possible
fucking mogged
nasapunk just means "we wanted to copy the setting, guns and so on from Fallout but claim it's actually space"
The only thing nasapunks in the game are the ship interiors. New atlantis is not nasapunk. Cowboys are not nasa. cyberpunk city with neon lights are not nasa. Weird space cults are not nasa.
>nasapunk (american scifi?)
>space cowboy
>colt 45 and other burger firearm
>morons and strong womyxn lead
God this game is so insufferable and reeks of narcissistic american wankery. Thank god it's actually a shit game so people will just forget it by next month
>colt 45 and other burger firearm
It has a VSS too you butthurt vatnik.
he's anglophone not russian, you scum sucking pukerainian motherfucker -- go back to your containment shithole and post your human gore with the other demented psychopaths
Do you know him?
I have just as much reason to think he is a butthurt russian as you do to think he is an anglophone.
Fight your own battles cocksucker.
>I have just as much reason to think he is a butthurt russian
because you're a fucking lunatic
when you enlisting, you stupid chickenshit gay?
I'm American, were not allowed to kill you legally, yet.
Ukrainians seem to be doing a fine job of it by themselves.
How does it feel to to know your great military can't even conquer a country you used to fucking own bud?
>I'm a sick murderous lunatic
>that means everyone who isn't as sick as me is a Russian
I trace my family back to the first American colonists.
You were neve even enlisted once you fucking worthless little maggot, don't talk about "we" and "killing". You're never going to kill anything but your own country, and you ARE losing Ukraine. America hasn't won a war for many generations, I know as much because I served two years of my life in one and saw how sick and worthless the average American is, not only are you going to lose every single war you posture on for the remainder of your worthless life, you also deserve to die.
Get a room
Think cowboy bebop
Cowboys and firearms have universal appeal you fucking gay. John Wayne was the symbol of masculinity for decades whether you were German, Slav, South American, or Indian.
>imagination
i wouldn't call that idea imaginative. mechanically it would reduce the fun of the game and lore-wise, it makes sense that humanity didn't advance as quickly after having to abandon earth after grav-drives destroyed it
Such a backasswards way to justify a lack of creativity in the universe Bes put out, but if it works for you have at it. It's always a waste of a setting when your vision of the future is just modern day with extra earth tones.
i'm not talking about beth's creativity or imagination. it's not great. magic space breathing apparatus is not creative either and would be boring mechanically. this isn't a novel, it's a video game and should prioritize gameplay mechanics imo
they ripped off pretty much everything and there is nothing unique about starfield. if they had ripped off a unique space suit it would have been a bridge too far i guess. it's basically a public domain IP.
>newfag doesn't know what word filters are
What word filters? I typed every word correctly.
>bethesda makes space suits futuristic rubber bubbles
>wtf bethesda gay!!!!!!! i want my badass mechanical spacesuit like no mams sky and star citizen!!!!!
the west doesn't have a vision for the future, even when we look at the future we look at it from the perspective of the past. same way cyberpunk 2077 was about how the 80s would look at the future
that's because westoids literally genocided anyone willing to progress the future beyond worshiping morons or anal sex
we don't go to the stars anymore because we killed the Germans who invented it, and Wernher von Braun is now dead.
westoids are gay retards, just going to drown in their own shit until humanity perishes
Wait until you learn they don't use any cell phones or portable communicators, and the only long distance communication is between ships and stations.
Starfield is 70s-80s retrofuturism
I
Not quite. Its Cassette Futurism, a very specific type of space theme.
Starfield more like... ItsfunField
do NOT redeem
I'm pleasantly surprised how well a Bethesda game of all things is able to balance out the religious commentary so well
needless to say, I fucking clapped.
why do they open their mouth like basedboys on youtube?
it's called speaking, anon
you have to open you mouth to say words
PSA: You can grab and pull her hair
The companions in this game are so garbage.
They try to make them 'meaningful' by having them get killed off in an event like this was Mass Effect, but it and the universe-hopping NG+ feature just makes them entirely meaningless.
Also you can marry one, have them die off due to plot and move onto the next... while you're at the funeral of your first partner, all with no one acknowledging it.
And the more you complete the game the more you can skip the plot and ignore them.
I wish they had ripped off more scifi shit. Just packed it full of reddit memes referencing Futurama, Hitchhiker's Guide, Star Trek DS9, Battlestar Galactica, Ringworld maybe, you know. It would have been better than this unsalted cracker we have now.
>OH MY SCIENCE!!!
Cringe, religion isn't theory. It's fact.
>awkward namedrop plus fedora-isms
Wow, is the writing this bad the entire game?
The amount of wokeness in this games confirms that the Stormcloaks will canonically lose just because they were racist chuds. Calling it now, it will be referenced several times in the next Elder Scrolls how Ulfric was a Hitler-type figure and thank god the Imperials won Skyrim. You can also expect for there to be literal Wakanda Warriors in Redguard fighting Whitey Imperials, in this case they will win their war against the White Man because it would be racist otherwise.
This can't possibly be real, there's no way.
>I need answers..
why
Every star has its field.
>tips space fedora
Okay, what's so outrageous about claiming God is also the one who created the stars and all that shit?
He didn't JUST created Earth or whatever, the story goes that he's basically the reason for the "Big Bang" even happening to begin with so it's safe to assume he basically also created the whole universe. And if there truly are other beings out there aside from us, whose to say it wasn't also God who created them as an "experiment" or something like that, either before us or after he saw what humanity has done and he wanted to try and improve them in some way by creating something different far far away from us, so we would never be able to reach them? Science in itself is nothing but theory based on logistics and observable things.
>he's basically the reason for the "Big Bang" even happening
This is the last hole the God of the Gaps can cling to. We figured out how the earth formed, so he had to be pushed back to other unknowns like how life and sentience formed. We figured that out, so he was pushed back to space alien shit. We're not finding anything on that so the god of the gaps can only nest before anything we currently know, before the big bang. And in 50+ years we'll figure that out too and the bible thumpers will keep screeching and crying until they finally die out in a few more decades.
That's about as pedestrian of an understanding of god as I think I've ever seen and I'm not even religious.
Does she have a religious epiphany later on or something? That one shill kept saying it was full of Christian themes or something.
why do so many people in the main questline call space "the starfield", nobody else does
To all starfield haters or morons as i like to call them:
I accept your concession
>Bethesda """""writing"""""
>playing bethesda games for the writing
>playing bethesda games
Crazy how the only decent waifu in Skyrim was Sersna and you couldn't even marry her
>your only choice is to be a pathetic simp
Awesome choice and consequence! Deep dialogue totally not written for normie retards.
Its dialogue for when you’re already married to her retard. Learn what simping means. Also do even a little bit of research about the game before posting.
The simping is mutual. She falls HARD and will practically blow kisses at you whenever you initiate conversation. Also she jumps into your bed and fucks you every time you so much as take a 1 hour nap. Your dick is like meth to her.
Seems fine to me. Perhaps some human interaction outside of your room shall do the trick?
>Seems fine to me
And this is why women ignore you
>n-no you!
Kek, seems I struck a nerve. Not surprising to see a typical Gankerirgin doesn’t know how to talk to women, let alone one he’s married to.
>Struck a nerve!
Literally r3ddit: the retort.
>How to talk to women
If you think any of those responses were at all charming then maybe go back to your anime visual novels. gay.
>n-no you! (Second attempt)
Thanks for the (You)s little chuddie!
>no you!
Yes. You. You are a gay. A massive gay. A gay who's only experience with the opposite sex is slice of life visual novels. Cry about it.
>n-no you! (Third attempt)
Aw don’t be mad sweety! Loving the (You)s thoughever
>falling in love with a woman way too old to bear your children without a 100% chance of them coming out busted
I wonder who's the target audience of these romances. Because I've been cringing through the BG3 and now Starfield. It's like writers thought
>What would starving desperate incel want in a romance subplot
Romance in RPGs is fucking cancer no matter what.
Waifufags are mentally-ill no matter what fanbase they come from
BG3 is for sex pests, normies are sex obsessed freaks, they think everything is advanced if you're allowed to pretend to fuck it.
I had someone tell me BG3 is a game for adults and I just couldn't be bothered to talk about it anymore.
Fucking busted ass game where everything is broken after Act 1 and virtually half the equipment/stats in the game don't even work, tired of hearing about this sex pest garbage, but that is undoubtedly the sex pest's modus operandi to never shut up about their habit.
The only sex scene I've seen in my playthrough was with Minthara. Everything else was fade to black including drow twins. Fucking pathetic. And then there are Shadowsimps that had to court supposedly bad girl for 100+ of hours. BG 3 "degeneracy" is a marketing ploy targeted at conservative larpers at 4chan and they fell for it hook line and sinker as usual
>Larian marketed to 4chan in a top-secret 4D chess marketing ploy
Obsessed.
All people talk about with that game prior to it even releasing was fucking a bear, speedrunners created a Sex% category for the game. Literally everything I've ever seen about the game is just romance and fucking. Idiot.

Bros… she’s perfect. You DID marry her, right?
Why isn't she marriable?
Quite a few NPCs have stopped me dead to check if they have a name
I want to marry Scientist
YOU JUST TAPPED INTO THE FREAKING UNIVERSE! WITH YOUR FREAKING MIND! HAHA
I agree with all the criticisms but for some reason I enjoyed shooting. Maybe it's just me not playing FPS for years
Keep giving me (You)s wojak bastard
So how is the game unironically? It looks extremely barren and even more devoid of actual characters and story than fallout 4 but if it's genuinely good for exploration/doing random shit for 70 hours I might give it a go.
It's full of content when you're doing missions/side quests. If you just want to roam then there's basically nothing.
I've played about 30 hours and I'm enjoying it.
It has a ton of sidequests, most of which are good. The main storyline is questionable. The problem with it is that you are constantly fast traveling, by design. So where I might play Fallout 4 and have fun just walking from one place to another, that's simply not an option with Starfield, my ship can only fast travel from planet to planet, system to system. I can walk from place to place on a planet, but there's not going to be a whole lot to see between points of interests (of which, there will be about 6-8 in your landing zone). Sometimes POIs will have fun stuff to do, but the fact that I had to fast travel to even get there makes it feel bad.
The strange thing is that it's not what it appears. The only reason you can't fly from planet to planet freely is because they intentionally bind your ship to a planet, you're leashed to them. There is a mod to remove the leash and you can literally just fly from planet to planet, it makes no sense why they would restrict the player in that way.
Oh, and I should say that it is a very lonely game, as there are only a handful of companions and they're all bad with the exception of the robot and Sam Coe. Even Sam is questionable because he's clearly a literal cuck since he and his ex-wife are white, and their kid is half-black. Sarah and Barrett just want to tell you about their former gay lovers, and the other chick is an annoying edgelord.
Sarah doesn’t do any of that, what the fuck are you talking about?
Then you haven't spent enough time around her. She wanted to fuck her mentor, at a minimum, who was the former chair of Constellation. She also apparently fucked around while she was in MAST.
Sarah is has been saving herself for a savage being of pure light like me
She admired Aja as a mother figure not a damn lover. She literally specifies that she didn’t Aja like that and only admired her as the former constellation head.
>I want to spend hours and hours walking across a planet and hours and hours flying intersolar distances at sublight speeds.
Why?
I've got about 50 hours so far.
Not even scratching the surface yet, done like 4 star systems, still haven't tried out the outpost system.
It's a lot of content, even if you just count the designed areas and locations. If you count the procgen, which I don't generally, it's basically unlimited.
I went to a random spot on a planet as well and did a few of the procgen locations to see what the deal was, got a bunch of loot and left. Not bad for procgen to be honest.
What the fuck is wrong with her face
Too much botox
