Three new titles have joined the charts this week, including NBA 2K24
Digital Foundry : Bethesda's Starfield was generally a well-regarded RPG, but the game's 30fps target on consoles was the subject of some controversy. The game's massive scope arguably justified that 30fps refresh rate, with only high-end PCs capable of hitting 60fps and higher, but now Bethesda has changed course and opened the floodgates on Xbox Series X consoles following significant optimisation work. Players can now independently select performance and visuals modes at arbitrary frame-rates. How exactly do these new combinations fare, and is 60fps really a possibility after it was explicitly ruled out before?
Starfield’s latest update is here and it’s bringing several new features with it!
Bethesda has just released the latest update for Starfield and players have discovered that the game is still incredibly broken.
It will never be running as expected, because these fixes are mostly for the compensation of the series s lol. The games legit compromised Already.
Gotta hand it to Bethesda.
One way to avoid laying off QA staff is to just not have any at all!
I really tried to get into this game as I love Bethesda games. Put 40 hours into and even bought the 100$ edition...but this game just isn't good. It's an ok title at best. Dosnt have any of the charm that elder scrolls or fallout has. It's incredible how bland this game is despite having the opportunity to create a whole new universe..literally, and they give us this mostly human universe with the same things to do over n over just on a different named planet.
They had such a huge opportunity to give us this incredible universe akin to star wars and instead made it bland af. It saddens me a bit cuz I truly tried, and i love Bethesda open worlds. Maybe shattered sky's helps? Idk. To me the core of the game is just not good. The only thing I truly liked was the ship building.
Dismantling false narratives about Xbox gamers that don´t buy games because of Gamepass.
Congratulations goes to everyone at Bethesda and Team Xbox for this amazing game which is nothing but a success made an instant classic!
Man, this game is massive, MS and Bethesda must be celebrating this big win.
The game is on the lips of everyone from journalists, gamers, developers, and even the haters.
If it didn't debut at No.1 it would've been a total failure.
There is no other new game of interest for the UK crowd.
I hope when we get the numbers, that it's actually great sales as well, and not just "it was #1 because no other games selling right now".
However, as Hogwarts Legacy still is the game up top (just behind Starfield now), and that game ain't selling more than 10-15k copies/week, we actually have no idea how good the sales of Starfield, in UK was/is.
I still doubt Starfield will be a multi million seller as all their previous games, because of GamePass.
Grats for de throning hogwarts legacy (released feb 2023) and mario kart 8 deluxe (released april 2017).
This is a massive win for MS.
In my logic, I would also BUY big RPGs on Xbox rather than pay 3 months of GP and loose access to it if I stop paying.
Modding is gonna bring this game to another lv.
This Bethesda game design is like McDonald's of gaming.
It's old and dated, but it just works.
16 times t... Ok ok.
