Starfields is one of the biggest games of 2023 – but it’s joined other recent games like Baldurs Gate 3 in being boycotted by conservatives because of the way it interacts with gender.

    Weirdly, the worst frame drops are in the cut scenes.

    When you’re in New Atlantis, taking mass transit anywhere, the train pulls out of the station at a good 5-10 fps.

      It’s because the cut scenes are also loading screens so they actually have a lot going on. I’ve been playing on xbox series x and it runs as well as you’d expect on a console, so not really complaining there. I’m having fun at least, j7st need to keep away from all the negativity surrounding the game.

        You would think that, for a static loading screen, that’s the same every time, it would just be a video clip and not generated live, in engine.
