is this another dark souls topicJfc what a defense lol
might as well complain that bethesda makes terrible bullethell games too
I just got to the first combat encounter in Starfield. I'm sure it gets better but that was the worst combat in a Bethesda game I've ever played. Also I had to go through 3 different menus to pick up a gun and equip it right before the encounter. Weird design choice.yep i was stuck with the laser took a while to figure out how to change
yep i was stuck with the laser took a while to figure out how to changeYou'd think they would put recently acquired weapons on the d-pad quick menu. I don't even know how to add anything to that menu yet if I even can.

is this another dark souls topicNo this topic has nothing to do with dark souls. It has to do with Bethesda having bad combat.

I mean, you don't play Skyrim for its combat system. The game is about exploring and building a character. The fun is going from struggling against any random bandit to becoming strong enough to wreck a bandit marauder in full heavy armor.But having good combat would only make this character adventure better, would it not? Saying that people dont play a game with tons of combat for the combat doesnt excuse said combat being really bad.
You can favourite it like every other Bethesda game, to then access from the d pad.Cool thanks!

I have never been able to get into Bethesda games because despite incredible worlds and exploration, the combat is just so bad. Skyrim melee combat is literally minecraft level of trading hits until one of you dies, and a lot of people consider it one of the greatest games of all time.The easy answer is its the same engine as the one from morrowind. The have made improvments but the bones are the same.
if combat wasnt super common, id understand giving some leeway, but you fight stuff in these games a lot. So why do these continually get a pass for combat that just isnt fun?
People really come out of the woodwork when a Bethesda game comes out to say they never liked them, and they are actually bad games.
This digipick mini game is confusingIf you're playing with a controller you can press the bumpers to change which pick node you're using. I don't remember the game telling me this and it took a second for me to figure that out. Wasted like 6 of those picks.
Starfield battle system is a big step up from Fallout 4big deny i loved fallout 4 battle system
bethesda has successfully outsourced making a complete game to the public.

The combat can be enjoyable despite being simple.No!!! It has to be pixel-perfect attacks and precision iframe dodging, or you may as well be reading a book! Git Gud!

(am I doing it right?)
Because no one plays Beth games for combat.If the salad or potato tasted really bad id probably remember the great steak alongside the terrible salad i had with it
Is it a big part of their games?
Sure.
Salad or baked potato that comes with a steak is a big part of a meal, too.
No one's going to say the meal was terrible if steak was great.
to the ppl defending bethesda in this topic WHY is it ok for them to release buggy unfinished games
Once they fix the AI it'll get better
the only good software to come out of a microsoft-owned brand is that which other people end up fixing into a usable product
People melee in Bethesda games?
Who's gonna remake this topic but instead about the Witcherpeople have been talking about witcher combat since forever tho?
I was definitely fading but I was trying to make a point of if I didn't already is that Elder Scrolls never had good base combat but a lot of times I didn't need some elaborate system with parries and such to make me more pissed off when I was just trying to unwind and lose myself.Same, I mostly just like to whack and bash (with the occasional fwip) in Elderscrolls , and pew pew pew (with the occasional whack and bash) in Fallout.
Sometimes I do just want to just click with minimal effort.

I get both in Starfield and some fun space exploration, so I'm enjoying the game a lot.
btw: I just finished a side mission where I was being hunted through a wrecked colony by a creature that looks like it could tear a deathclaw in half while trying to activate defensive turrets to kill it. It was legitimately tense and stressful and I loved it.
