No actually that would've been nice. I tried several old saves to see which part broke the ending doohickey. All the conveniently close to end ones were busted too. I went back way farther, like a third through main story. Using noclip saved some time running through that stuff but a lot of it takes the time it takes regardless of what you do. I avoided three things I couldn't rule out: Switching or editing my ship in any way. It's possible the shipbuilder itself could be the thing moving the bugged marker outside of the ship (but using noclip to go where map marker says it is doesn't work) Doing any quest that involves using a quest ship or anything. And the end of a quest line involving ship upgrading and other shenanigans. Saw several others with similar bug since launch w no solution yet. Only big issue I've had w the game so far but preeetty annoying one to get.

Khanstant posted:It really won't. It's funny how much mythic power modders have accrued over time both because 92% of Bethesda game players never use a mod or aren't even playing where mods are possible and the mods themselves never have the big foundational changes that would be needed to make the game notably better. Tweaking numbers, swapping adding models, UI fixes, altered start conditions, poo poo like that will be available for the tiny minority of players who mod but there's never been a set of mods to make a poo poo Bethesda game into a good one. Fallout 4 has has years for modders to do their thing and they haven't made the game much better, because they can't, the base isn't solid enough like it was for Skyrim and Morrowind. They didn't make it meaningfully better because to make fallout 4 any good at all, you need to literally tear apart the game entirely and rebuild it from nothing.

If there was ever a time to do it, it would've been for Starfield. You can preview the main map of the next TES in this game on some random forest planet. You can also preview their "expedition guild" mode where you can explore procgen islands for buried treasure or garbage for your pirate ship.

Thing is, the reason MonocleCat keeps producing huge essays full of almost- comprehensible nonsense , is because it is actually an AI coded by Croberts. Fully emergent behavior! Explains why it seems to be doing nothing else: It has no actual life or needs, so of course it is writing non-stop.

Private Speech posted:It would be really funny if someone went full hog and just added all the SC ships in. To integrate them into Starfield they would have to be made into modules that fit on a grid, because starships in Starfield are just space Lego. This is the main draw for me, I built many Lego space ships as a kid, but I won't buy it until my 3090 can push reasonable quality in 4k with it, or I upgrade my system, whichever comes first.

Starfield looks like poo poo and "if you like other Bethesda games you'll like Starfield" is unequivocally a bad review and an indictment of Bethesda for failing to innovate in 20 years while other AAA companies are doing new, cool poo poo.

Actually the janitor is a critical part of your ship. Without regular cleaning of the ships interior, the fully simulated dust particles will slowly settle first on the floors and then start to clog up various lifesupport filters etc. This will in turn make the air quality in the ship (also fully simulated) bad, and your character will get space hayfever. Also the ship will explode.

It's also not true. I liked other Bethesda games but Fallout 4 and Starfield have just been huge lovely stinkers especially for Bethesda games. Fallout 4 was where they kinda forgot what they were good at and why, 76 was even more of a whiff of fundamental understanding of the appeal of their games. Starfield is the culmination of their fundamental error of understanding where the charm in their formula nests. It's like they see their past games make the big sales and assume it's because of their worst habits and systems.

I always call fallout 4 a bad fallout game, but a good Bethesda game. But I played it in VR, with survival mode and lots of settlement mods. So for me it was about planning and executing supply runs that went ever deeper into Boston, and ultimately conquering the entire map.

Mu77ley posted:Coherent, interesting stories that don't have plot holes you could drive a bus through are something Bethesda have never managed. True. On the other hand, Bethesda actually releases their games, with incoherent/tedious stories riddled with huge plot holes, and those games are playable and sell well enough to keep their company going. It might not be much to brag about, but it's at least better than, say, having a thousand-page script (also incoherent and tedious?) for a game that's never going to be released, and spending over a decade making people pay through the nose with nothing to show for it, all so some poor benighted team can keep working on The Mess Hall Scene.

It's also objectively incorrect, so in the context of Oblivion, FO3, and Skyrim at the very least, the most fleshed out character is the map, and for a lot of people the enjoyment came from finishing the tutorial and turning left instead of right-- exploring the handcrafted map and getting distracted from what you meant to by something that looks interesting instead a dozen times in succession. Bethesda has made a lot of people I know who enjoyed those earlier games either "disillusioned with" or "just drop outright" Starfield because instead of getting distracted by something interesting on the way, the game seems to have said "well, people just fast travelled anyways, make the fast travel the required method of getting around" and put in 1,000 procgen planets full of nothing worth being distracted by.

While at the same time Starfield has sidequests that feel like they could carry a 50hour game by themselves if they weren't wrapped up so quickly by nature of the fact they are sidequests.
