Starfield, the upcoming addition to Bethesda's line of open-ended RPGs set in space, is on the verge of release. Despite the game's one-year delay, the anticipation has only grown, and by all indications, the wait has been well worth it.
However, the period leading up to Starfield's launch has seen its fair share of spoilers and malware that could negatively impact players' experience. Amid this backdrop, one individual who is genuinely invested in ensuring players enjoy the game to the fullest is Pete Hines, a prominent figure at Bethesda.
During an Xbox Livestream, Hines shared what he considers to be the most valuable advice for players seeking an exceptional Starfield experience. While the tip may not be groundbreaking for longtime Bethesda fans, it holds immense value for newcomers captivated by Starfield.
Pete Hines' Insightful Tips for Starfield
"My one piece of advice for folks is: do not ignore your activities," Hines advised viewers. He emphasized that although these activities might appear trivial or secondary, they hold significant value. "It feels like throwaway stuff that the game is giving you, but there is some amazing stuff in there."
Hines elaborated that the vast expanse of the Starfield world often presents opportunities that might not initially seem like traditional quests. Despite this, he encouraged players to explore these threads, as they often lead to "amazing places" and unfold "amazing stories."
This advice echoes the essence of other Bethesda titles, where seemingly mundane tasks can transform into extraordinary adventures. Hines specifically mentioned these opportunities as "activities," encouraging players to actively seek them out.
"We encourage you to play this like any (Bethesda) game: Do what you want, go where you want, test the game. Be the kind of person you wanna be in this world and see what happens," Hines concluded.
With excitement building, players can look forward to embarking on Starfield's journey. The game launches on September 1 for those with the Premium Edition and on September 6 for the Standard Edition. Additionally, the game will be available on Xbox Game Pass starting from the Standard Edition launch date.
