Todd Howard spoke about the features of dangerous space exploration in Starfield

Starfield is an ambitious new RPG with a huge open world from Bethesda Softworks that we still don’t know as much as we would like to. The game will offer a unique and moderately dangerous space travel, where players will find many discoveries. At least that’s what the lead game designer claims. Todd Howard.

In a recent podcast, a key Starfield developer said he has no regrets from reschedule the release date Games. The team did not take this decision lightly, but it was absolutely correct. The extra time will allow the developers to fine-tune all the mechanics of the project and fine-tune the technical component so that the fans are satisfied.

According to Todd Howard, the space adventure in Starfield will be moderately dangerous for players. Every planetary system is different set the level, which reflects the degree of danger of his research. With a high level will come more difficult enemies, there will be more of them, but not everything will be related to the opponents. Some planets will simply be dangerous to explore without the proper equipment and required level. As Howard notes, in your adventures you will often come in handy suits resistant to toxic environments or high temperatures.

More interesting details about Starfield:

  • Getting stuck in space without fuel won’t work, but maybe this idea will be implemented in hardcore mode later;
  • The player’s suits can provide additional resistance to toxins, temperatures, and other effects, which will be useful on different planets;
  • In the game it will be possible to meet assistant robots and hostile robots;
  • The world of Starfield is tile-generated, just like in previous Bethesda games. The developers made realistic landscapes, connected them together, and then wrapped them around the planet;
  • The team introduced limits on the number of planets to spend more time detailing each one;
  • Between planets, you may encounter cargo ships and other spacecraft that can contact you;
  • The player will see how the spaceships leave the spaceports in real time.

Starfield will be released next year for PC and Xbox consoles.
