Starfield Plays One Dirty Trick To Break Your Heart

, like many of Bethesda's past RPGs is a game full of choices and consequences. Most often, major choices in any given quest line will come through dialogue or optional objectives clearly marked in the quest log. However, there's one choice players don't even know they're passively making, which can have devastating consequences later on in the game's main campaign.
[Warning: The following article contains spoilers for Starfield.]
Throughout 's campaign, players will be introduced to a number of recruitable companions. These companions come from all walks of life and spending time with them helps dive into their backstories and flesh them out as characters while exploring The Settled Systems.

The two companions that are at the player's location will survive, but the companion they're closest to at the other location will die at the hands of The Hunter, which can be a particular gut-punch if it's one that the protagonist was intent on romancing.
For those who are already aware of the shocking twist in "," this makes the choice of which location to save even more tactical, as it comes down to figuring out who is situated where via dialogue, and selecting the location with the character or characters they favor most to save, then looking at who they were closest to out of the two companions in the other location, knowing that they will die.
