It's super annoying that the camera and movement locks during dialogue without ensuring that the person you're talking to is even looking at you. The NPCs are also kinda creepy looking and definitely have that uncanny valley feel to them.

It blew my mind a couple years ago, while shopping in a Natural Grocers, to see this dreaded gothish hippie guy on the cover of some vegan lifestyle magazine, only to realize that it was Rob Zombie.

I'm over 200 hours in and still mostly enjoying Starfield. There are a lot of things that could be better and the limitations of the game engine are pretty evident. I feel like the game will continue to evolve with expansions and mods but that's not good enough for people who expected everything day 1.

The repetition of points of interest is definitely a bummer. It also doesn't make sense that no matter where you land on any planet there is always a handful of structures and people nearby. Or that another ship always seems to land near you shortly after touching down.

It's also annoying how 300 years in the future, people seem to have completely forgotten about night vision and your only option for illumination is the built in flashlight.

I think that's maybe the most frustrating thing: it's easy to see how the game could've been cooler in so many ways, but due to the engine or development constraints shortcuts were taken that result in subpar play.

Unless it's an online multiplayer game, let me pause whenever! Playing Starfield now and it's so annoying that you can't pause during dialogue or ship fight by hitting ESC.

It is a little mystifying that they continue to be so bad at maps across so many games.

The problem is that free range and grass fed methods take up more space and and produce more greenhouses gasses, even if they are more ethical.

Meanwhile, the game won't even launch for me because apparently if you don't have the most recent version of Windows, it won't recognize your graphics card. And for whatever reason absolutely refuses to update to 22H2.

Arizona is very efficient with water usage for the most part - especially in terms of residential and industrial usage. The big problem and water suck is agriculture in the region.

Now if only they can get the NIMBYs in Nevada to support yucca mountain so we have a safe place to store the waste.

I know this exists, but it seems like a more complicated solution. Just give me space bar pause!

Is there a real pause button? Seems like the game is still running in the background when you hit ESC and you have to go into turn based mode to stop things. Wish the space bar paused and unpaused the game. Wish there was a double time mode too.
