Modders made it so you could crash a vertibird into Trinity tower so at least modders will fix Bethesda's problems

imo since bethesda isn't willing to cover their employees health insurance while working on this game if they're trans, it's only fair to not pay for the game in exchange

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

I mean I know we like to clown on Bethesda but several of their games are legitimately defining games with large audiences.

Like people I know who don't really play games played and know about Skyrim. BGS games are a bit like COD and Madden in that they have much broader appeal than the enthusiast audience.

i love bethesda games for all their faults but i dont really get the appeal in spending money to play a game early or as soon as possible or whatever. most games are better after theyve been out for a bit and had few patches.

i mean, im excited to try starfield, but im also to happy to let millions of other people try it first and get some poo poo fixed, there's more than enough other stuff to play in the meantime

Someone could stand to check me on this, it’s at least a year out of date but last I knew you still can’t do script extenders on gamepass games so your mod options will eventually be limited.

My recollection is there is some kind of targeting system / mod you can get that acts like VATS, but I might be wrong.

It’s not a core system like in Fallout, though.

Being that it's all Microsoft now I couldn't tell you, but since they don't like people to mess with exes on game pass things like Skyrim's script extender (SKSE) won't be workable on game pass. You need more permissions to the files than game pass allows you. That said, SKSE was something that was developed for Skyrim to compensate for lack of modding controls, Starfield might not need that, and if it does it's going to take time for it to come out and be utilized by mods.

By the listed specs it mostly wants more powerful versions of the same gen of stuff BG3 does. 2060 for recommended BG3 vs 2080 for Starfield. Which is not a huge leap but it’s not a small one either.

Realistically? We have no idea yet.

The PC game pass folder lockdown stuff stopped a while ago and you can just access game files like any other normal program now. I'd bet the incompatibility with an SKSE-like will probably come from any changes made to the actual EXE for game pass integration that changes memory addresses
