Just came here from reddit, making my first post. I played NMS last year for about 40hrs then kind of lost interest. Starfield looks a lot like NMS, but with a lot more content and action. Is anyone going to be trying it out?
I definitely plan to, though probably not on day one. I have a feeling that it will probably be really buggy at first, both because it’s Bethesda, and because it looks really ambitious feature-wise, so will probably need a while iron out the worst bugs. Also I play on Linux, so will need to use the Proton compatibility layer which might not work perfectly at first.
I love NMS though, and have over 1600 hrs. in it. NMS has a charm, and aesthetic vibe that seems quite different to what I have seen of Starfield, so I don’t think it will replace NMS for me, I plan to play both.
I’ll wait for the reviews for Starfield before I decide if I purchase the game. Bethesda has a rocky history with new game launches, I usually wait at least 6 months before buying one of their games. So at least it will be patched enough to be playable without game breaking issues…
Yes! After they work the bugs out. Works well, I still need to play Skyrim first.
I am likely going to play it as I have played most of their games but I’m going to wait a bit. Not in a rush. Let some of the bugs get fixed. I just got back into NMS after not having a computer for the past 3 years. Game looks great on my new one. So much more to do than when I last played.
They do seem awfully similar…

That being said, I’ll be getting Starfield. I expect I’ll still play NMS from time to time. It’s the game I usually come back to between other games or when there’s a major update.
