Starfield Player Spends 180 Hours Surveying Every Planet

One frustrated Baldur's Gate 3 player has taken to the game's subreddit in a flurry of heartache and confusion, having spent several hours saving every last Gondian prisoner there was to save, only to be savagely turned on right as the fight ended. And of course it all switched to infighting before they managed to hit save.

One Skyrim player has made the ultimate sacrifice - and several less ultimate sacrifices - to let the world know what happens if you eat every single ounce of food available for purchase in the game's major cities. In short, you die. Explosively.

One incredibly lucky Starfield player has stumbled onto a space pirate that was three times their level and, somehow, walked away with both their life and a sweet legendary rifle. 

If there’s one thing missing from Starfield that cranked up the immersion in previous Bethesda games, it’s probably the radio stations. Walking through the post-apocalyptic landscape in Fallout 4 surrounded by Death Claws and Super Mutants while blasting Big Band music on your Pip-Boy really elevated the gameplay experience for many. Unfortunately, Starfield came without a galaxy-wide space radio, to the disappointment of numerous fans who have been asking where Starfield’s radio is in multiple forums since its release. Many players were expecting it to be a given, but one player put matters into his own hands and created an all-around Starfield space radio that anyone can play for free while soaring the Great Unknown.

Knights of the Old Republic takes us back thousands of years before the Star Wars movies, but there are a lot of similarities. You find a smuggler with a Wookie friend and the two are in trouble with a local gang, so you recruit their help to get off planet and steal a ship. That ship also happens to look suspiciously like the Millennium Falcon. Among KOTOR fans, it's just as iconic, so it's no wonder that they've brought it to life with Starfield's extensive shipbuilder.

A lucky Starfield player might have genuinely found the closest thing the game has to a perfect gun.

Every time a game comes out that includes some kind of vehicle or base-building feature, you just know that the recreations aren't too far behind. We saw shortly after launch of Starfield that someone recreated a whole bunch of spaceships from other games and movies, which included The Normandy from Mass Effect, The Millenium Falcon from Star Wars, and a Pelican from Halo. Unsurprisingly, it seems like Starfield has quite a few Halo fans in its community, as another recreation from the series has been gaining attention on social media.

Starfield has only been out a month, and someone has already been to every planet in its universe. While Todd Howard said we’d be able to visit over 1,000 planets, the Bethesda dev actually undersold the sheer scale of Starfield’s galaxy - there are actually close to 1,700 planets, and now someone’s seen them all just weeks after launch.

Ahead of the launch of Starfield, Bethesda chief Todd Howard said there were over 1,000 planets to explore in the science fiction role-playing game. "From barren but resource-heavy ice balls, to Goldilocks planets with life,” Howard said during the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase in June. “And not just this system, but over 100 systems — over 1,000 planets, all open for you to explore."

How often do you clean up your living space? And I’m not just talking about Starfield or any other game — but in real life. Are you the type of person who cleans once a year when everyone gets on that ‘Spring cleaning’ wave, or do you tidy up your house daily? If you’re like the latter, then you would absolutely hate u/foslforever, a Starfield player with an… interesting way of managing their own personal space. It is hard to put into words exactly how the ship of this user looks, so instead, we’ll just show you and you can make the conclusion yourself. Just be warned, it isn’t pretty — especially for clean-aholics!

Released last month, Starfield is the biggest game Bethesda Softworks ever made, featuring 120 star systems and almost 1,700 planets. While it was only a matter of time before someone explored them all, one ambitious Starfield player had already scanned all 1,695 worlds.

One dedicated Starfield player has put 180 hours of the RPG into simply exploring every planet to the full.
