Had no idea I could change companion outfits. Already got Serah in a cool army tank top outfit.

Outfit, space suit, weapon... It's the same as with previous Bethesda games but it's not mentioned or explained anywhere during normal gameplay. With weapons, make sure to give them at least 1 bullet of the ammo type that's needed

It’s never too late to find out about shiny leather ‘formfitting’ pants…I know from experience.

Got an ending. This is almost certainly my last game from this studio, particularly if they aren't interested in changing up their world-building team (lead by the same guy since OBL). Like, it is shocking how little Bethesda have iterated on their approach to either game design or storytelling in the last 20 years or so. Despite some interesting ideas (and I think the second half of the story or last third or whatever should have been THEE story, not this bullshit "Welcome to Constellation" garbage), this is one of the dumbest, most navel gazing experiences I've had in a videogame.
. . .which is to say nothing about just how uninspired the world of the Settled Systems is. Honestly, once all the release hype has died down (and with the game trending down on STEAM I doubt we're far off) this is going to get savaged as easily the worst that Bethesda has done. Which is saying a lot as I've played all of their previous games (including FO76) and enjoyed the hell out of them - warts and all.

Approaching 70 hours now and level 27 ish myself and not even remotely close to "finishing" the game, if that's even possible.

Put skill point(s) into the skill, stealth is not available by default.

Formfitting clothes without bodies with forms is not that interesting imo but it’s cool that it’s possible to change their clothes, I had no idea

There are so many unique landmarks to discover on Earth. Whoever worked on these... thank you, kind sir!

Don’t bother with stealth (other than challenges) till you max the skill and have the suppressed weapons to back it up. It’s just not going to work very well otherwise, similar to Fallout 4 where you couldn’t really get good at stealth without collecting the magazines, upgrading the perks, and getting to the level to unlock the perks in the perk tree (that were level locked) as well as the suppressor attachment for the weapon’s themselves.

Honestly, going "insterstellar" was a poor choice for them. Same with trying to tell a "grounded" story with humanity. "Modern" Bethesda does well with weird; there isn't enough weird in this game to mask their narrative shortcomings. Like as dumb as the story was in FO4, being able to kill mudcrabs or going on an adventure with a robot detective made up for that. No you weren't getting complex stories (well usually), but at least you were getting enjoyable ones.
By going "hard sci-fi" here, Bethesda wades into territory they just aren't good at. You combine more human storytelling with an incredibly wide design space - and that is a recipe for disaster.
. . .that isn't to say there's nothing to like in this game (I played it for well over 100HRS and am contemplating doing NG+), it's just the beat to beat stuff is so boring.

Is there a quest that takes you there? ive been holding off on going, thinking that would be the case.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?

So the way you discover these is kind of strange... you need to find books in the world about certain landmark / site and once you read, that location will be marked on your map.

I got one of those Activity missions via a book I read which tasked me to go to London. I haven't gone there yet though.
EXCUSE ME ?
Any outfit or just fixed ones ?

This game is killing me. The amount of loading screens in hub areas is ridiculous. Surely, surely you're able to render both the dancefloor and the vip area of the Aurora Lounge in one go? It's literally five rooms with nothing going on.
The technical choices they made are utterly bizarre at times.

Xbox or PC? On my PC most loads are literally 1 second.

But yeah they could have cut some of this loading by a ton surely?

Middle of fuck nowhere, ship landing. Captain is like "I was attacked by pirates, got scared, grav jumped too far... do you have any water?".
Me: proceeds to steal his ship and fly away.

Talk to them to trade gear and trade the gear in question over to them, then go to their inventory select the piece of gear then hit Y (or whatever it says on the bottom for PC for ‘equip’) on the piece of gear for them to equip it.

I’m still rolling solo even though I’ve got a full ship (Sam and the daughter 
, Sarah , Andreja 
and my #1 fan 
)
Andreja definitely seems the least bothersome. And I’ve got that Empath perk so I’m just magnetic to these people because I simply understand all of their trials and tribulations

Tried combat after installing this mod and it's the first time I had to actually pay attention to what I was doing during a firefight, makes it so much more fun. It can only get better from here after being tweaked.

Starfield NPCs oftentimes just stand around contemplating their next move. With this mod, NPCs will be more active and will act more intelligently.

Hmmm, in those pics Sarah looks like Emily Blunt a bit. Especially the bottom one.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I think something might be wrong with my game / save? I just got to New Atlantis, and everyone there is openly hostile and just shoots and easily kills me. I can get back in my ship, but the only place I can go is some frozen planet I can't land on. Everywhere else says "fast travel not available at this time".
I know in Skyrim you can like block with a shield and the guards will take you to jail or whatever. Is there anything equivalent in this game? I tried a bunch of different button combos and nothing worked - just get killed, reloads last save where I've landed on the planet, get killed again in a seemingly endless loop.
Already put about an hour and a half into this, not super keen on starting over. Maybe it's just the game's way of telling me that this isn't for me...

While they are shooting your hit pause and see what your crime stat says.

Sounds like you got a bounty. Try clearing your bounty from a different spot that isn’t hostile like Akilla or Neon, the board to clear it will be in the bars there.

Normally that would work, but he can't take off from New Atlantis it seems.

And you can be easily confused as the game is glitched as you we see YOUR character here when equipping the clothes on to the companion.

Hmmm otherwise maybe sleep for 24 hours in their ship (or anywhere else), which usually bypasses the hostility period of a bounty...It’s like the bounty system from previous BGS games where you can wait it out and they’ll eventually go non-agressive while still holding the bounty active monetarily.

Crime stats show that I had a single lockpick done (I did the tutorial lockpick thingy).
I guess it was a bug that just needed me to restart the game (loading previous saves before didn't work). This time when I booted up the game, the security officers still came rushing towards me, but they just asked if I wanted to go to jail or fight this time. I chose jail to try to break the loop, and that seems to have worked.
I guess the game thought I had a bounty for some reason. I haven't done anything weird that I know of, just following the main quest / tutorial levels, and got assaulted when arriving at New Atlantis for the first time.

If you hit start, then hit Y in the main menu it will go to: ’status’, then if you follow the list down to the bottom of the list to ‘crime’ you can see your largest bounty vs your lifetime bounty…granted mine doesn’t make any sense when you look at the numbers so it doesn’t surprise me it might be fucked:
My ‘total lifetime bounty’ is lower than my ‘largest’…

Thankfully it just fade to black and a 1 sec loading, but seemles would be better for sure
