Current Events > I am determined to complete Starfield this weekend

(+) Yeah! (+)

Already did all the faction missions, just focusing on the story mission now. It is so bad and annoying. Like, I just did one mission that consisted of fast traveling to a space station, talking to an NPC, pressing a computer and pressing on a wrench and that was the whole thing.

Just want this ride to end already. I have 100% Oblivion and Skyrim but don't think I can bring myself to do that with this game.

The faction missions are the best the main story ehh

Eh, they are all weak in their own shitty post-Oblivion Bethesda writing way. And way too fucking short.

Ryujin Industries - All the missions are the same. Fast travel somewhere, "sneak" to your objective, open a box or computer, done. It has an interesting conclusion but the missions had ZERO challenge to them.

Freestar Rangers - I had fun going around killing people and then bragging about it and making the main leader guy comment about how that's not the point of the Rangers. But it ends way too soon. You do like... half a dozen missions, mostly just tracking a few criminals down, and then there's a "shocking confrontation" and the questline is over.

UC Vanguard - Thought it was going to focus more on space combat, ended up being nearly a rip-off of Alien. That was cool but the writing sucked ass. Everyone hated me for deciding to do the safe thing and *not* release a modified bioweapon to stop the threat immediately. And like there was that cool twist with that huge war criminal being still alive but his role is so meaningless.

Crimson Fleet was the only one I enjoyed, just because you could actually make choices that affected... something. Hated the conclusion though. I killed all the UC people I could find in my quests because I hated that that guy had framed me for a crime and was extorting my services to snitch on the Crimson Fleet. Normally I play as a good character but that captain pissed me off. But then of course when you confront him at the end you don't get to kill him, you just have a stupid dialogue and he asks "Why did you join the pirates?" and you don't get to answer "Because I hate that you were blackmailing me". So even the ending of that storyline was ruined for me.

I don't even remember if there were any others. I think it was just those four. Also why the hell did they decide that each faction needed its own stupid mission board scattered around the whole galaxy? Why can't I just access all of it from a single board. Annoying.

That doesn't mean that they are not the best part. The rest could be worse.

lol yeah but the fact that they *are* the best part says a lot about the rest of the game.
