Starfield is supposed to offer a gigantic world full of mysteries ready to be explored by you. Not an easy task for players who can quickly become overwhelmed. For this reason, Bethesda gives you a tip on how to maximize your enjoyment of the shooter.
What does Bethesda draw attention to? Starfield is a massive game that can engage you with various options. You have the main story, side quests, can build ships to your liking, model your character, equip it with skills of your choice, and much more.
The game already offers a large amount of things to keep you busy, but it might overwhelm some players. GamesRadar conducted an interview with Bethesda’s Head of Publishing, Pete Hines, during an Xbox livestream.
Pete mentioned a point that you should not ignore on your travels in order to enjoy the game to the fullest.

“Don’t ignore your activities”
What does Bethesda advise you? In his interview, Pete mentioned one thing he urges every player to consider, which are the activities you should not ignore.
According to him, this is a new way in which you can engage in Starfield. Pete does not elaborate further but says: “It feels like throwaway stuff that the game offers you, but there are some amazing things in it that don’t even feel like a real quest, but can lead you to some amazing places and some amazing stories.”
As with every Bethesda game, the developers want to encourage you to do what you feel like doing. Pete believes that every player should explore their path and not just blindly follow a quest. “Be the person you want to be in this world and see what happens,” is what he says.
When can I play Starfield? Starfield will officially be released on Xbox Series and PC on September 6. However, players who pre-ordered the digital premium edition can log in and play as early as September 1.
By then, we will know whether Pete was right and how the activities will affect your character. Did you complete the main story in Bethesda games, or were you a wanderer who finished all side quests and explored the world? Let us know in the comments.
