Once more, I delve into the Midfield to buy myself enough time to make a better video next week. I just realized I talk too fast, I should try slowing down a little.

Here’s links to the mods I used/mentioned in this video:

Music tracks used, in order: Starfield - Akila City, Starfield - Tenacity of Life, Starfield - Snowball, Starfield - Deep Freeze, Oblivion - Peace of Akatosh, Skyrim - Ancient Stones

The game at 2:01 is Minecraft (with Complementary Reimagined shaders and the Distant Horizons mod), at 2:39 is Grand Theft Auto 5 (I doubt anyone needed help noticing that), at 10:48 is Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy, and at 11:40 is Car & Driver (there are a few good MS-DOS games, this isn't one of them).

Timestamps:
0:00 Intro / doomed from the beginning
0:51 Starfield and the Bethesda formula
2:25 No team could have made this game good
3:20 Bethesda should have been realistic and dropped the 1000 planets
4:22 There's no excuse for Starfield's poor NPC scripting and bad UI
4:58 Lobotomized enemy AI
5:56 Long range combat is still bad / hitscan weapons
6:56 Picking up items = theft
7:43 Nothing to do in space
8:54 Starfield's economy is the same as every other Bethesda game
10:31 Survival mechanics shouldn't have been cut
11:15 The rapid pace Bethesda intended is undercut by some mechanics
11:45 I doubt we'll see land vehicles in the future
12:39 Outpost building, it's terrible
13:36 Books and bookshelves
14:05 Features missing from Daggerfall
14:37 8 wasted years
14:57 If only Bethesda hadn't chased the latest graphical trends
16:30 Outro
