Discuss all things Starfield below!
So far I'm a few hours in and I've been having a great time. My hardware is closer to the minimum requirements, so I've had some issues with my resolution throttling back to keep framerate up in the busiest areas. So far, no significant bugs experienced, assuming the aforementioned texture resolution fuzzing was intentional.
I will say I've found all the complaints about loading screens to be a little silly. Again, I'm closer to the minimum hardware level on PC but most loading screens I encounter have been around 3-5 seconds, and they're generally made up for with other conveniences like the ability, when planetside, to fast travel not just directly to your ship, but Into the pilot's seat, so I'm spending a lot less time loading than I would have just walking through doors.
All in all so far it feels like exactly what I was expecting.
specifically to the loading screens point, I guess it's about expectations. Since this is such a huge game advertised as exploration-based people might find too many loading screens immersion-breaking.
I know I'm spoiled about this since Red Dead 2
