@Blamemeta If the Steam hardware survey is anywhere near accurate, most people aren’t using hardware that would run Starfield in a very playable fashion. It isn’t surprising that most of them would run games that… well… will actually run well on their hardware.
@CopernicusQwark @Blamemeta In general, I don’t mind the layouts being identical due to bureaucracy’s love for doing things one way only. I don’t like the repeated ones that have named npcs though.
Muybridge (or whatever it is) pharmaceutical seems like it was originally part of a quest line or something, since there is even a corpse of at least one of the 2 siblings down in the caverns.
@Ashtear @AreaKode No, but while I enjoyed it, I did wonder what the point of the flashbacks was. If (with our eyes opened to the Starborn) we had hit those flashbacks and could see we were being watched by the Pilgrim or something, that would have been interesting. If our dialogue choices with Vlad had some impact on the next or maybe second next NG+, that would have been cool.
The flashbacks felt like padding to me because they were, it turns out.
