Is Starfield essentially a walking simulator?

 There are many people who seem to be complaining about Starfield, calling it a walking simulator. I believe that this is an incorrect assessment of the game. 

Here is a video of why I believe that is incorrect and why people should stop complaining. People should be happy that this game came out. Bethesda spent 10 years to develop this game and I really impressed with their efforts here.

Expectations and Video Games in the current year

Image
 Starfield has gotten much criticism by people for being an outdated game that is simply stuck in the past. This hardly is the case, considering that games such as Starfield are not even that common in the video game industry. Starfield's development was a monumental process for Bethesda. It involved the labor of some 500 people who are all highly skilled in programming and other tasks in the making of video games and people have to understand this. This was not an easy task by the people who were making it. However, people continue to attack the game for not being what they wanted and are making videos about how it is a mediocre game. It is not surprising that the game is getting all this criticism. People have been complaining about video games since the beginning of the industry, but the expectations are getting way too high.  We already see this with the release of the GTA VI trailer, and expectations are already going through the roof with so many people who make video ga...

Why I am attracted to the city of Neon

Image
 I was really looking forward to the release of Cyberpunk 2077 a couple years ago and I was very disappointed how mediocre the game was. You can understand my excitement for the city of Neon in Starfield. It has very much the same vibes as Night City in Cyberpunk 2077 but in a different setting. I expect that it is going to be a great experience that will make Night City look really like it was rushed to sell copies instead of being a statement on the future of urban design in the United States. Neon just looks like it has tons of care and thought put into it. I really hope that it outshines all the rest of the other cities in the game.  Night City, when it was released to the public in December of 2020, was a character as much as a place. It is unfortunate that the developers were not truly able to create a city that was interactive and interesting. While they had the vision, it seems that the developers were more interested in getting celebrities into the game rather than fo...

The Strength of Starfield: The Details

Image
  Starfield: The Devil is in the Details One of the greatest strengths of Starfield is that the game is focused on giving the most innovative and immersive experience possible. This is why this game isn’t simply just another space game but something more. While other space games are simply content enough to just let the game let explore space, Starfield is doing something that most games do not do; it is removing all the impediments to being an explorer of Constellation in this game. This is one of the reasons that the game really resonates with me and why I continue playing it and enjoying it. It is more than a video game, but it is really an experience that transcends the medium and allows for a variety of spectrums of people to enjoy it. One of the aspects of that experience that really makes the game shine is its attention to detail. In so many games that I have played, there is distinct lack of care given to the ordinary objects in the game and people are always taking s...
