Report: Starfield on PS5 Seems to Be Loaded in Backend According to Mods

The official PlayStation logo has been spotted in one of Starfield's mods on Bethesda's own creations site.

[B5R]

Just announce it already.

They should try to remove the stupid overabundance of ridiculous loading screens for the PS5 version. But I assume it's not possible because of their crap engine and/or their laziness to do anything about it. But it is possible in some instances as some modders have done so a few times for PC from what I have seen.

It will be super jarring and weird for PS5 players to see so many loading screens, I worry it will destroy any potential immersion. I don't think I could handle it honestly lol. Combining that with the uninspired gameplay, I expect it would tank my motivation to play and finish the game.

Yeah I feel like it was also the creation engine it was core to why I gave up on the game the forced tutorials I was still getting 4 hours in just annoyed me it did t help I had just played through tears of the kingdom st the time which had zero tutorials and being forced to stop for a guided tutorial every 20 minutes killed me I have up at 6 hours despite being a huge fallout fan

[Armaggedon]

If one doesnt like the screens, just dint olay the game. Just like if one doesnt not like being handcuffed, dont play a fromsoft souls game. They are integral to the games design.

[BISHOP-BRASIL]

Are you seriously trying to push loading screens as a voluntary design choice rather than a technical limitation in 2025? Good luck with that...

[Armaggedon]

I dont know… is me having input delay when I try to roll in elden ring a technical limitation?

[Bathyj]

Meh.
I just started Death stranding. I don't have time for that.

[LoveSpuds]

I am trying to wrap up my Elden Ring playthrough so I can get a replay of Death Stranding in ahead of the sequel. That new video last week has be really excited, I loved the first game, one of my fave platinum trophies.

[Bathyj]

This is my first playthrough.
I didn't really get it when it released.
But after that trailer I decided to give it another look.

After 5 hours, I've built my first bridge. While ïts to early to be 100% sure I think I'm hooked. I'll see how I go. It feels like a game that hard to sell to someone but if you know you know

There's just so much Kojima in the game.

[LoveSpuds]

Just wait until later in the game when you start building a network of zip lines. Journeys that used to take 20 mins are done on a couple of minutes, it feels so satisfying 😀

Hope it continues to resonate with you dude, enjoy!

[Profchaos]

If what never a matter of if but when

[MaximusPrime_]

I have zero interest in this game but there are people who like it. People have their personal preference.

[OtterX]

Sounds like Microsoft fans are the ones getting it loaded in the backend these days. 😆

[Ninver]

Jump in? Lol

[Rockstar]

I would pay 30 bucks for this loading screen simulator. I've got time for it to get there

[derek]

Who cares? Lol. This is the ultimate none-story.

[Ninver]

Wow. If this happens be prepared for a meltdown from the hardcores.

[neutralgamer1992]

What's funny about this is MS bought zenimax because rumor had like Sony were going to get SF timed exclusive. This game didn't live up to any expectations or hype. IMO this has been the biggest failure of this generation

[MDTunkown]

Maybe it would been better on ps5 without Xbox series S holding it back tho

[PanicMechanic]

Nice. Now when is something good I.e. not Starfield, getting announced?

[gigoran8]

I'm telling you PS5 owners, it's not worth it. And I'm saying this as a primarily PS5 gamer. This game was all hype, but unlike other games that improved since launch like no mans sky, starfield just stayed its same old stagnant self.

[dveio]

I wish everyone who buys fun with it.

Personally though, there's not a single fibre in my body expressing any form of anticipation and excitment for Starfield to my brain.

The more than lackluster 1st DLC ("We gonna support it as a game of a decade!") then just killed it completely for me.

This thing was announced as a long-tracked EF5 tornado.

But roped out after 100yrds already. Barely even reaching EF1.

[Yui_Suzumiya]

Everyone knows it's inevitable. What's the holdup? Well it could be that they're going to announce for Switch 2 as well and that showcase is next month.

[Kassanova07]

I love space themed games. If executed properly we have a classic that is Mass Effect. Certainly Starfield has potential.

[Flewid638]

If only the game was actually good.
