They’re a wildly different level of detail though. The NMS physics engine is pretty simplistic, mostly effecting NPCs and a very few physics objects. Starfield is like other Bethesda games, tons of little items and junk that all have their own physics and interactions.
This has got to be SWTOR right?
That’s exactly why I didn’t buy D3 or StarCraft 2, and why I haven’t played a Blizzard game since. If it requires online for single player, it’s a hard pass for me.
That’s absolutely what I want in 2023. Anything over 30fps is completely unnecessary outside of competitive multiplayer.
After that 45 minute breakdown I’m very excited for No Man’s Skyrim. I can definitely understand the hesitation, it’s almost definitely gonna be riddled with bugs on release, but I’ve got gamepass, so I’ll happily beta test for y’all!
Check out the longer Dev video for more about it, but basically yes, most planets are lifeless and basically only useful for gathering resources.
I don’t really understand why people expect different really, there’s a thousand planet sized play areas, of course it can’t all be hand crafted. The point is to feel like you’re in space, and space is 99.99999% boring lifeless rocks.
As long as the hand crafted areas are done well, I don’t see why this would be an issue at all, it’s potentially the best of both worlds.
Gen 4 was the worst for slowness IMO, Platinum improved it a bit but DP was horrible in that regard. I can’t play any Pokemon games outside an emulator with a speed control at this point, it’s just miserable.
A big second here for Infinite Fusion! I just found out about it a couple weeks ago and I’ve been absolutely loving it. It’s certainly the classic Red/Blue storyline, but with just enough changes to the maps/story to feel fresh and interesting. The fusions are so much fun, especially the community created art. I wound up finishing my first run with an entire team of Monster Hunter themed Pokemon. Now I’m trying out the randomizer mode and it’s such a blast. Despite browsing the discord for a while and seeing dozens of Hall of Fame teams I’m still finding fresh fusions constantly, it’s really amazing.
They aren’t going to change you view on life, but most are pretty solid. I highly recommend pretty much any books in the High Republic era, particularly “Light of the Jedi”. It’s the first of the new era and it’s a great introduction to the setting. It’s all set a few hundred years before the movies, so the Authors were able to pretty much do whatever they wanted within the basic Star Wars universe.
