Starfield is set to release on September 6th and there’s obviously a lot of excitement around it but will it work on Valve’s Steam Deck? That’s not currently clear.
There’s a vid on the steam community, guy got it to work installed on the SteamDeck mSD. Required a bunch of workarounds but it got like 30 fps.
Right, cause you can trust Todd and Bethesda. Honestly, their steady decline has turned me from a Bethesda fan into a real cynic. The cheap, fall apart merch from Fallout 4 and 76, paid mods, the utter mess and voracious monetization of 76, the treadmill of Skyrim releases, forcing their own broken launcher onto people and then decommissioning it, and that is saying nothing of the bugs and jank people have just come to expect. I was glued to my computer when Fallout 4 was announced, but Starfield was barely a blip for me, and the little I have seen is thoroughly unimpressive. Regardless of how it does, though, I’m sure plenty of folks will be lining up in 2032 for ES6: Skyrim 2 or whatever they come up with.
I’ve seen very little about Starfield other than some supposed accomplishments with its environment systems. The very minuscule amount of gameplay reminds me of Outer Worlds, but larger.
It’s something I could be interested in, but as it stands I’m pretty much on the same page as you are - the name Bethesda just doesn’t hold the same weight it used to. I personally wasn’t too interested in FO4 and only just got around to starting it and it hasn’t grasped me. It’ll be interesting to see how Starfield performs
