So, success or is the jury still out?
I think it will be a success, thanks to mods, though I do have to say that I dont think it will be as much of a success as peak Skyrim with mods. However in terms of its current standing, for me its a 7/10, its good but not great and ought , perhaps, given the time and budget thats been available be a 9/10. Having said that, for some people it is already, in its current form, a 9/10 but not for me, the failings that it does currently have , cumulatively, must for me be worth more than a mere 1 point deduction. Hence the 7/10 :)

Ah so a genuine Bethseda game then hah! After spending more hours than I can spare on BG3 I fancied trying this, but if its going to be better to wait for bugs and issues to be ironed out first I can wait. I just get the impression from watching a few youtube videos that the generic NPCs/Gameworld is quite sparse and bland.
 
Has anyone got to the red mile casino yet?

If you have... i just saw a video of someone robbing the casino of credit sticks without getting caught... using a basket and physics :cry:, brilliant! such a Bethesda thing to do haha.

If i wasn't working i'd try it right now.

Bah...fruit salads..meh... a green and white striped ship to remind us of Pacers, thats where its at. Pacers were severely moorish !
Green and white makes me think of that ice cream with the twisted stripes I think it had a pink or red centre?

This video breaks down just how awful the writing in Starfield is:

Why would anyone want to watch that though?
Surely people make their own minds up?

I swear youtubers are grabbing at some seriously thin straws for content these days!

Imagine it got shut down or banned or the revenue removed and they actually had to get real jobs...
 
Finally finished the Ryujin quest. Geez that was long! It is almost as long as main quests from other games :cry:

The quests have their ups and downs but overall enjoyable. I can finally get to doing some bounty hunting now and working on upgrading pilot skills. Then go play Sheriff :D

Still probably 20-30 hours away from going to grab Serah :cry:

Oh and seems only 2.7% of Steam players have completed the Ryujin quest yet.

Where are the industrial workbenches located ? I have loads of random stuff I need to craft, ideally for medipacks.

I found a weapons workbench in a random city.. any help would be great thanks

If it involves putting a basket or a bucket on someone's head so they can't see then that has been around since Skyrim or before.
 
I try my best to avoid too many sweeties/ice creams nowadays
And here I am, having like 4 a night :D

Ultra-fast metabolism means I can eat anything lol.

back on to Starfield though, I am focusing on Ranger tasks now but just reached Neon so am going to get myself setup on Neon and put some time into that and speaking to everyone to grab as many side stuff as possible. I like this area.

I am quite unsatisfied with the washed out blacks of Starfield on my panny plasma (which has amazing blacks in games that are competently made) so I tested "Natural LUT" mod that replaces the lookup tables. However, it is a mixed bag too. Some scenes look significantly better, others look worse. My search continues. Here are few comparisons. If anyone found ideal way to have great color grading while getting proper blacks in SDR, let me know.

Vanilla (terrible!):

mod (so much better!):

And then ship interior, opposite result

vanilla (great!):

mod (washed out):

New Atlantis looks a bit better with the mod, I am really not a fan of the green **** filter.
