The reviews for Starfield were definitely over the top, but I trust MachineGames. They’ve proven they know how to craft a solid campaign.

Wait, they made this?

Nah, I was kidding! But wouldn’t that be something?

Phew, I thought I missed some major news there.

PC Gamer said this one belongs in the same league as Batman Arkham and GoldenEye. Plus, it’s getting 9/10 and 10/10 scores everywhere. Feels like they spent the right amount of time perfecting this.

The game does look great, but some outlets give 10/10s just to get their name on the box art.

@Micah
Totally agree. Remember Anthem? All those awards before it even launched.

Alright folks, let’s not get carried away. We’ve been burned by the hype train before.

To be honest, the early previews looked pretty rough. Glad they stuck with it and polished it up.

I was super skeptical, but the reviews are making me rethink it. Seems like they’ve really delivered.

Can’t decide if I should play this on Xbox or PC. Leaning Xbox because it feels like a couch game.

Plays great on my Series X. Highly recommend it.

You know you can hook a PC to your TV and play on the couch, right? Controller works too.

This game is exactly what I wanted. Doesn’t feel like a Tomb Raider clone or Uncharted wannabe. It’s more like Indy meets Hitman, and I love it.

Anyone else on PC getting horrible performance? I have a 4070 and it’s barely playable at 1080p. Seems odd.

Have you checked for the latest drivers?

Yeah, turns out a new driver just came out. Installing it now, fingers crossed.

Good luck! Let us know if it fixes the issue.

Driver update fixed it! Running smooth now at 120fps on 1080p high.

No issues here. Running on ultra settings and it’s buttery smooth.

What’s your CPU? Could be a bottleneck there. Also, is the game installed on an SSD?

MachineGames really delivered on this one. Just what I needed!
