Its a baffling decision, same with the absence of a FoV slider. Something that i honestly would've never expected from Bethesda. Also 21:9 works natively and well but for some reason Super Ultrawide doesn't work (Defaults at a 16:9 aspect ratio)
Skyrim and Fallout 4 had character appearance preset import/export so i would expect them to appear fairly soon.
Yep, i ended up playing 83 minutes when it unlocked but then i had to get some sleep for work today.
Their games used to have like a "freebie" entry into skills. You could be an Axe Barbarian but still make use of stealth meter and even some sneak bonuses, for example. With Starfield they are pretty much asking you to commit upfront to what you want to do, which I personally prefer. It makes your choice of perks more impactful, although that's the entry level perks. Down the tree it's usually numerical increases.
Yeah this is why I'm hoping it's balanced properly. Persuasion checks are rare so am I forced to attempt persuasion every time the opportunity appears in the dialogue options? What happens if I decide that I don't feel like using persuasion several times in a row? As a comparison, the challenge to upgrade the jetpack ability is to use it 10 times during combat. You can do that in a single fight at any point in time in the game. So suppose you get the jetpack but then you don't upgrade for 30 hours of gameplay... you can still get the challenge done in one fight when you finally decide you want to put more points into it. If you get persuasion at the start and you don't use it for 30 hours, will you still be getting low level skill checks at that point? That's why I said I hope the balance is done properly. It's still early to pass any judgement on how it'll turn out.
I totally see what you mean. I expect there to be enough opportunities for you to do so especially with persuasion, but it's hard to tell with the game pulling you in so many directions on which quests you'll find your avenues.
The storage situation is tough in this. I'm 15hrs in and my 3 companions are all full up. My inventory is full and my 2 ships are full up. There is so many items. I have 24 diferent weapons and like 10 spacesuits. All different so I don't want to sell and anytime I get duplicates I give it to a companion. I've done a couple big sidequests but still its crazy to be this full only 15hrs in. The other Bethesda games usually go longer before you are in this situation and they don't have anywhere near as much storage. I guess I should go to Jemison and start selling everything that isn't a resource or rare items. Also I don't know what I would do without the Adoring fan. Without him storage situation would have happened even earlier.
Go upstairs then all the way down the hallway to the bar, then all the way straight to the left of the bar, turn right, second door on your right.I don't know which room is mine at the Lodge. Noel was supposed to give me a tour, and then she started talking to Sarah.
Ah I meant to say skills (that you invest points into) instead of traits (which you select at character creation). Some of the skills are obvious (persuasion, lockpicking etc.) but others are a bit more esoteric (like gastronomy) and it's not immediately obvious what the long term benefits will be. Also, all the skills further down in the trees only have descriptions without actually telling you what they do until you reach that tier of skills by investing points in the tree. So it's a bit hard to try and plan a build outside of having a general idea of how you want to play your character.
Yeah I would like to know this as well. All I've been able to do is drop items and you can't place them on tables and stuff. Or at least I haven't figured out how to do it.
They do feel a little spongy right? I figure we'll need to invest some points into the combat skills to make it feel better.
It sometimes gives a vague description of what the skill is going to do.
We will not learn this in the game until we have spent the correct number of skill points to unlock this tier of skills. That's why it's slightly tricky to plan out builds in advance unless you're looking at external sources. That's all I meant.
I picked the Vanguard faction as well and that's one of the first quests I was planning to do when I get off planet. I'm kind of curious if the starter quest is the same for everyone or if they are picking from a pool of quests to give people.
I think you can manipulate objects if you keep whatever button you need to get them pressed long enough (like A on an Xbox controller, or whatever the keyboard equivalent is), similar to how you do in Skyrim
If you mouse over an item in the environment and hold E you will grab onto it(you don't have to keep holding it once it's floating in front of you) and flop it around. Press E again to drop it.

If you bought it on Steam you can try to get a refund. The game is technically still unreleased so you would be refunding a pre-order and the automated refund system will likely let it through.
Reminds me of Mass Effect 3 and Steve. I'm sorry, I just can't romance a guy that's going on about his dead husband all day every day.Regarding romances...
It's so disappointing that the two male romance options are a widower and a cowboy with a kid. I just want a hot guy with no baggage.
I really want to just try upgrading the Frontier and using it all game, but the ship building system is overwhelming. Every time I try to delve into it, I back out.
