I have Game Pass Ultimate. But a game like this I will typically play for years. I'd rather own it outright. Plus, I want that mod support.

Mouse+kb, 60+fps, mods, "perfect" IQ, minimum input lag, lower price, etc, so....

PC. No contest. I'm not even sure why anyone would consider a console for this if you have the option.

Was that a jab at Zelda or Final Fantasy 16?

Yeah same here, especially as I can play or stream to the steam deck and further iterations down the line

Wait, no mods for the gamepass version? That would suck.
I would also wait and see what the price of the game is on GP, they have some nice discounts sometimes, but maybe not for a brand new game.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Well, the minimum is a 1070Ti, so even if it runs on a 1060 in the first place, it's probably gonna beed 720p FSR with everything on low.

If you have a capable PC to play a Bethesda Games Studios game and a console, there's absolutely NO reason why you should be playing that on console.

Yeah the mods can change a games dynamic so much. Then you have quality of life and bug fixes that can enhance the experience. Plus community made skins, models and visual overhauls.
Crazy how to this day, people are still modding for Morrowind. And Skyrim mods are actively being worked on.

Will only be basic mods. Anything that requires what will inevitably be named Starfield Script Extender (SFSE) won't work.

There will be mods, but often mods depend on script engine extensions which usually don't work on GamePass games even if they are Win32.

No DLSS, no buy. Your move, AMD/Microsoft/Bethesda.

Most are not though. There are pushing 70,000 mods available for skyrim on PC while just over 4,000 are available on Xbox.

It’s still such an amazing game. And nearly 30k people playing it right now on Steam alone, 12 years after it released, a single player game.
Respect!

You know this for certain?If you buy it on Xbox you can play on both with the same save.
I tried to google if it was a Play Anywhere title but couldn’t find any official info.

Not Skyrim, Fallout 4, Fallout 76, going by some quick gooling. And Starfield doesn’t have that listed in the info on the Microsoft Store like other Play Anywhere titles.
Maybe they’re doing something specific with the save info keeping track of all the object positions etc?

As an Xbox fan, they pay me to play on console.

Fair enough but it still seems uncertain for Starfield:Those were not first party game on release.
Does Starfield Have Cross-Save Support?
Bethesda's Starfield looks like the perfect game to take on the go - but does the space-themed RPG support cross-save?
gamingintel.com
”No, Starfield does not appear to have cross-save support at this moment in time.
Neither Bethesda, nor Microsoft has announced the feature, and the game’s store page doesn’t feature the ‘Play Anywhere’ or ‘Xbox Cloud Saves’ tags.”
“Well with how much modding happens on Bethesda Games especially PC I would be surprised if they took the time to work on cross saving as it could probably corrupt your saves,” Reddit user YahwehPaysuggests.”
I’ve seen the Xbox Cloud Save feature on Microsoft Store though so maybe the store page just isn’t properly updated.

No dis to your portable Series S idea but the game is very likely going to run beautifully and look awesome on that beast

I’m 500+ hours into NMS. I’m thinking Starfield will in short be AAA No Man’s Sky RPG. It’ll obviously be deeper in role playing and also likely have better exploration and more AAA shooting and spaceship combat. And it’ll be lighter in crafting and harvesting and base and fleet and settlement duties.
It’ll be nice. Hopefully a little less like doing chores, NMS can be quite exhausting at times.
