Various handcrafted worlds
Well-staged story by Bethesda.
Almost unlimited freedom in game design.
Excellent implementation of flight mechanics.
Many side quests, especially for companions and factions.
Atmospheric atmosphere with moments of the day and dynamic weather conditions.
Good balance between (space) battles, exploration, and crafting.
Very good composition and atmospheric music.
The sharpness of the textures as well as the (facial) movements of the characters appear dusty.
Very poor lip synchronization
Aiming with firearms is a little clumsy.
The loading times for a next-generation game are quite long.
Artificial intelligence is not always convincing in battles.
The lack of vehicles results in long journeys.

The procedural generation of planets worked against the title.

Creation Engine nails zero-G combat, seamless construction systems, and environmental effects
The single most polished game launch in Bethesda's history
Introductory hours overwhelm with reams of systems, quests, and concepts delivered too quickly
Uncanny NPCs are too ugly and stiff in 2023, with close-up shots detracting from great voice acting
UI is too minimalistic for its own good, considering the complex systems within

Overwhelming in terms of content and incredible gaming universe.
The gameplay works perfectly.
The main story and the side quests are of really good quality.
Graphically, it is very pleasant, galvanized by a truly inspired artistic department.
Surprisingly well finished, with a historically minimal number of bugs.
Superb soundtrack
Exploration, both in space and the environment, could disappoint even the most ambitious, with a strong emphasis on procedural aspects.
Interface not always very clear
Fluctuating performances on PC, especially in 4K.

Very beautiful introduction, which is also repeated many hours later.
Informal Introduction to the Main Quest
Several elements are introduced within the framework of a quest.
Some help texts accessible from the main menu.
A huge amount of carefully crafted content (good multi-level quests)
Robust action combat system with numerous types of weapons and a few possible tactics.
A relatively competent AI that can sometimes escape (but can still be deceived).
Captivating plot that we enjoy playing, with enough room for other quests.
Some surprises where something unexpected happens in the gaming world.
Companions who become characters, have their own stories, provide bonuses, and fight alongside (usually one at a time).
both the lodge, the ship(s), the outposts or the apartments as their own headquarters
The ship editor is both easy to use and sufficiently complex.
Booty, booty, booty
Enough of gaming systems "to do something different from time to time"
Several cool situations, for example: zero-gravity fights are very rare, but very well-executed.
Fractures with their own architectural style, weapons, uniforms, and spaceships.
Some magnificent views and extraordinary "top to bottom" experiences.
Good facial expression and gestures of the game characters.
Automatic backups and the ability to save almost anytime.
Fully dubbed (except for the main character) by several dozen actors, with only a few instances of double or triple dubbing (according to the English credits).
Very good English and German speakers
Appropriate combat effects and ambient sounds.
Many things are not explained correctly, or not at all, for example outposts and shipbuilding.
Gamepad overloaded control
Sometimes poor PC control (especially in terms of output, but also in general due to the focus on game controllers)
Not really an open world, just "bubbles".
The planets differ too little, even when they have "extreme conditions".
The generated contents quickly repeat themselves and are significantly inferior to those that are "designed".
The outposts seem useless/poorly designed.
Weaknesses of balance (for example, cargo space on ships compared to personal inventory, small reward being "equally serious" as a big one)
Tedious management of resources and inventory, also due to the interface.
Poor automap (the "Ground Map" is significantly inferior to the automaps of the 90s).
Is not a graphical precursor.
Translation into English:
The German translation is not always up to the real meaning, but too liberal.
German version of asynchronous lips (seems to be a bug)

Its construction of the world is precise, and it includes significant side missions and events.
It is a pleasure to get lost in the Starfield universe, and the supporting cast is truly powerful.
Its gameplay works wonders, particularly highlighting ship customization and control.
A magnificent soundtrack, among the best in the game.
Its main storyline feels a bit weak compared to some of the side missions.
He seems overwhelmed by his ambition: there is no real exploration of the universe, and many of his maps are empty.
It leaves much to be desired both in terms of graphics and technical aspects, as the creation engine 2 does not deliver any more.

The main plot is a pleasant surprise.
The members of Constellation are quite endearing.
Tons of side quests (but not all at the same level of quality)
The retro sci-fi artistic direction and the colors
Managing light makes all the difference.
A Bethesda game almost without bugs, I call that black magic (see box).
A well-optimized and stable game.
Space battles are awesome.
The construction/improvement of his spaceship.
An interesting skills system...
The new persuasion system
Construction and craftsmanship, a dizzying time sink.
The character creation could have been more in-depth (see box).
The main quest sometimes encounters rhythm issues.
A really terrible French dub
Facial animations at Bethesda.
The inventory and starmap interface is tiring.
The AI of the enemies, always a great moment of laughter.
The feel of certain weapons leaves something to be desired.
... but sometimes too repetitive.
Apart from the main quest, the lore of Starfield is not very well presented.

Very good vocal interpretation.
Sometimes, very stimulating fights.
Unmatched spectrum in terms of gaming world, dialogue, and problem-solving.
Generally boring, less original storyline with sometimes tedious quests, sometimes simple recovery quests.
Limited and not very precise spacecraft control.
Bugs means "insects" in French.

A unique universe that can host an extraordinary new saga.
All the secrets unrelated to the main plot that we discover while exploring space and all the possibilities that the game offers us.
On an artistic level, it is a work of art.
The fight should be much more satisfying.
There are mechanics such as stealth or dialogues that have become obsolete for Bethesda.
The artificial intelligence of allies and enemies is noticeably absent.

Fantastically designed cities and worlds
Very well implemented spaceship construction
Deep RPG mechanics with lots of freedom
Lots of opportunities to play roles ? spy, smuggler, trader,
Mining magnate, space pirate
Enormous variety in the setting
Intuitive base building, both for machines and exteriors and interiors
More restricted than No Man?s Sky ? we travel fast and can?t just fly to a planet
Planets are self-contained systems, not a connected mega-open world
Many planets are barren and empty ? they only make sense when we build mining facilities there
Occasional glitches, but overall very few bugs for the size of the game

Vida Extra
The skill, trait, and improvement system offers a lot of possibilities.
Its staging, exploration, and combat allow you to get lost for hundreds of hours.
The stories of Starfield are great, especially the main story and the New Game
+.
Bethesda needs to fix some bugs.
Exploration can be repetitive for some people and is limited in space.
The 30 fps on Xbox Series X is inexcusable.
