Starfield and the beauty of space ships

 Starfield and the beauty in the Spaceships



In the Starfield timeline, space travel has become immensely easy compared to our own time. The invention of the grav drives had unintended effects on Earth but it gave humanity a great ability to spread across the Milky Way. Instead of relying on generation ships or slow solar-powered vessels, they are able to go any planet without needing to spend months or years to try to get there. In spite of this, spaceships are still very expensive and require skilled learning to use.

Spaceships in Starfield are really beauties in themselves. They represent something very interesting in the game. Unlike many other games where starships serve a functional purpose in the game. These ships are used to travel from planet to planet and provide a great amount of structure to the lore of the game. 

However, there is another aspect to spaceships in Starfield that truly make them remarkable. They have incredible amounts of information in them that showcases how realistic that Starfield is in comparison to its predecessors. I think that this is one of the reasons why I love how Starfield came about. Instead of the ships simply being story hubs without much character in themselves, they this quality about them that speak volumes about how humanity has learned to live in space. 

This is a very important aspect of the game.

When I look at real-life astronauts and their equipment, it is clear that Bethesda sought to create a believable reality in Starfield with some mysticism sprinkled on top of the lore of the game. This is why Starfield is so compelling to me. It represents a future which has technology that allows us to travel to the stars yet the human diversity in opinion and culture remain. There is no single culture that controls everthing and that makes the game much more interesting.

This is why the ships in Starfield all have unique interiors and exteriors. There is a sense of culture in all ships. On the player ship that is given to you by one of the main characters in the game, the ship already has illustrations on the wall and lots of decorations and all examples of how Barett and his trusty robot, Vasco have made the Frontier (as the ship is called in the game), home. It is important to remember that in the previous Bethesda games, textures were not as advanced and did not show as much quality as before. Today, games are becoming more sophisticated with their graphics and are able to show details that were not there before. 

This is why I love Starfield and I continue to play it. These spaceships are things of beauty and I think that people should be more willing to give this game a chance and help it grow. I think currently in this video game industry, people are too willing to criticize and not look at how Bethesda put effort into this game. We have a game where we can travel to many planets and yet people are still complaining. What I know is that Starfield is a game that I continue to support and enjoy. The space ships are just a small part of why I enjoy this space game.
