I dunno’ man but I tell you that I played Mass Effect Andromeda twice, once with all side missions and again avoiding all side mission. If you only play main missions in Mass Effect Andromeda, it’s a brilliant game, easily an 8/10 versus a disappointing 6/10 with side missions. And for what it’s worth, a lot of these glowing reviews for Starfield are from critics who had to rush through it and skipped a lot side missions. Don’t get bogged down by side missions, bad building, and loading screens if you don’t want to.

Eidolon269d ago

Right, I'll only do side missions if they interest me. Side missions can make a game feel worse if they're not done right.

EvertonFC269d ago

Apparently the game starts properly when you've finished it, I've gone with the main story with a few side quests and if the game really grabs me by the end I'll go and find all the random stuff to find and finish the side quests that interested me but I didn't do.

neutralgamer1992269d ago

A lot of side content is AI generated while curated content is very good ( according to reviews)

I will play this in mid October once refer have been few patches and hot fixes. I have the game but will wait. I also have a brand new RPG experience waiting for me in cyberpunk 2077 which I am also waiting for patch 2.0

Fishy Fingers269d ago (Edited 269d ago )

I've enjoyed the side missions more tbh. The campaign started slow but did get better for me at least.

Perk of maining the campaign is NG+ though, without spoiling anything it can make everything a bit more unique.

ZeekQuattro269d ago

I'm in no rush to beat the main quest. I've been doing the side missions & exploring. It's how I always treat these Bethesda games.

raWfodog269d ago

I heard some reviews from players suggesting that you should play the main quest up to a specific point in order to get the most out of the available play mechanics. I haven’t played the game at all yet but just telling you what I heard from quite a few review sites.

ZeekQuattro269d ago

Oh I know. I followed the leaks for weeks leading into early access. I've just been enjoying the side content.

CrimsonWing69269d ago

Can’t you decide for yourself?

GoodGuy09269d ago

This has always been kind of a problem with me for big games. I love to take my time and play however I want but...that also means I'd have to really go out of my way to avoid spoilers on the internet so I get pressured to finish the main story as soon as possible...

Starfield's recent player spike is good, but it needs its Cyberpunk 2077 moment now

Starfield's recent player spike is a good sign, but Bethesda desperately need to line up their Cyberpunk 2077 moment.

I feel like the second big update that releases late this year will do just that. Part of the story expansion is also new means of transportation on planets.

P_Bomb10d ago

A good DLC could turn some heads. The Destiny games got momentum that way too.

piher10d ago

What player spike?

I checked steamcharts through the link in the article and it went from 8,000 to 11.500, so yea 20% but when the game peaked at 330,000 It's safe to say that the actual effect of this update was negligible.

LostPotato9d ago

Doubt it'll ever get redemption. As many developers have said in various interviews it's beyond saving.

Just release the mod tools and expansion and move on.

Profchaos9d ago

Cyberpunk 2077 had some strong bones i disliked it on launch because I could see the potential I could see the strengths of what they wanted to achieve but it wasn't done yet

They didn't get the memo the game is dead and the Bethesdabots only want magic and fantasy.

Boy_the_CowRoy9d ago

Starfield fans? The game only has 9 thousand current players, worldwide! As a company you cannot waste time on creating "Major features", it is simply not profitable. Just move on.
