We revisit Starfield on PS5 Pro to see how much it has improved since launch and what sort of upgrade the PS5 Pro delivers compared to PS5, Xbox, and more.
Honestly asking, does the update make it more enjoyable/immersive? Loading screens killed it for me when it first came out but I enjoyed the leveling system. Lmk, I’m curious.
I played it with mods that forced me to construct everything from scratch. Super-enjoyable that way; created a multi-system logistics network that moved all raw goods to a single planet, than created a massive manufacturing base. Got bored and just played Satisfactory, which is apparently all I wanted anyway. Also, Eve online is way cooler.
I personally don’t understand how people play RPGs on console. I don’t mean this in an arrogant or aggressive manner, back in the day (most of 2000s) consoles completely fucked the PC game market, but that’s not the case today.
These days it’s irrelevant, the market is so huge that one can play tons of unique PC only RPGs and it doesn’t matter what Obsidian or Bethesda are doing.
In context of RPGs, consoles make it difficult to have skills systems, include text, allow modding (I still play Fallout 1/2 and Arcanum every few years, more than a quarter of a century later) and do result in UI/UX inefficiency which in turn limits themes and approaches that can be used in world building.
One just has to look at VTMB 1 (computer focused) and VTMB (cross platform, but UI is console based and game design was console focused).
Before I lost interest I remember the one thing about this game that sucked more than anything else for me was the inventory system. Obviously you had limited weight in your character, but even the chests in your base had limited inventory. It just meant that I would always end up dumping all my shit into that one container near the beginning of the game that had no limit. So the entire concept of building a neat base was lost to me, Mr Loot E. Goblin.

Simple answer. Because they dont think about those things or care about them.
