    They almost got me with preorder last night, but I was like nah I'll just wait and see in the morning. I love how i've been reading for weeks that "it's good they made fast travel hard", like preparing us for a fast travel MTX. Or it's the greatest character creator of all time, but to edit after you have to spend more money - the game is basically $100 canadian. Absurd.

    Give Vintage Story a shot! Like you'll go in with a MC mindset and slowly realize you're in a whole new world. It's dark and the wolves after after you and the 3 stacks of berries you collected have all rotted. Is that a bear? What does it mean "temporal storm approaching"?

    (few weeks later you've mastered voxel by voxel claymaking, knapping, and maybe done gotten some smithing done if you've managed an avil. Winter is approaching, is your cellar stocked? Do you have warm clothes?)

    (Been playing for years and still learning things, and the devs seem to outpace mojang in terms of adding features, you get modding built in, and the chiseling...by god the chiseling...)

    I maded it to NG+11 I think, once you get Phase Time X you don't need to do go any further. Actually basically the last run I didn't buy anything other than some ammo, using whatever I found on the way and since you can have Phase Time on all the time, there's no challenge (other than the final space battle).

    I'm done for now at 136 hours played, next time I get into it, will definitely start a fresh character!

    games Games Todd Howard says Starfield was 'made to be played for a long time,' but a month after launch I'm already drifting away
    Jump
  • Quentinp Quentinp 12 months ago 77%

    I'm content with my ~120 hours played so far even if I don't play again. But I probably will, especially with mods or future content. It doesn't quite have the build flexibility of an elder scrolls game though. Hopefully they'll add more variants to the bases etc. Generally happy if a game has 40 hours of gameplay and there's easily 40 hours of content in Starfield.

    The NG+ stuff is interesting but after playing it a bunch it's both a plus and a minus, like it's neat to have the options there, but also might've been better to start actual new characters.

    Fortunately the research doesn't need to be redone. I spent a decent amount of time in the first world and now I'm rushing more or less to 10th because I vaguely remembering hearing something happens. Then I might settle down, although I'll be pretty OP (I kind of am now, some more points in to ship to ship combat for the final battle I think is all that is needed to just rush straight thru)

    [Spoilers]How NG+ affects gameplay

    I'm currently on NG+8 (at 120 hours played) I think and it's funny how i'm becoming like the other starborn just rushing all the artifacts and not caring about anything. I could probably do it in two hours per but I do get distracted. Currently level 75-ish (can't remember exactly) and I do get sucked into at least upgrading weapons, and in the Starborn Guardian the final space battle can be rough so I also end up getting the Razorleaf and working on getting it to C class stuff. But realy the upgraded weapons aren't necessary, can usually find a good-enough weapon getting the artifacts. But the artifact chase means there's no point in building anything as it'll just be gone. Sometimes I think I'll chill on this run, but then i've gotten all the artifacts and it's close enough to finishing one more time that I eventually just go for it. I've become just like the other starborn - building relationships is pointless, interacting with merchants is annoying. Phased Time VII is godlike - these stupid mortals need to get out of my way.

    Good way to get into manageable ship combat? (To level up pilot skill)

    If'd put points into piloting earlier I might have been to level 2 in ship combat, but i've just started looking into class B and higher ship parts so I need the licenses. I get totally wrecked most of the time in ship combat (using the Razorleaf with what upgrades I could manage with class A). I guess I could use my ::: spoiler spoiler Starborn Guardian II - I beat the final ship encounter by hugging an asteroid and taking out the three ships as I can, if they don't glitch themselves to death first. ::: my guns can take an average ship down in one pass, but shields are usually gone by then, especially if there's multiple enemies.

    [Spoilers] One of my favorite game endings of all time!

    Anyone else really love the ending? I'd thought it would sort of go down something like that, but I just found it was well executed. I think the best part was how it ushers you into the NG+ with your cool ship and how you can short circuit the main story - looking forward to seeing if there's any other NG+ differences! It's funny if I replay other games I just get on with it, but starting in that ship and having it acknowledged and being able to do things differently (story wise) just slotted me right into the lore of Unity - like everyone chill everything's going to be all right in the end.

    Especially if you add the Joy of Sailing mod (though wind needs some fixing), having oceans has really changed the character of the game IMO. Just something about hitting the ocean to try and find new lands (that hopefully have that one mineral you need...) And hoping you have enough food! Hopefully vanilla boats get some love, the raft is not great.
