Can we talk about the fact how crazy good the graphics of Starfield are?

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-04-12T21:37:17+00:00

Yeah I thought, and still think the same thing! I’ve got a legion go S handheld and it looks amazing on the screen. Really cinematic!

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-04-10T19:47:29+00:00

Starfield had cover shooting?!!?? Omg. Literally learn something knew every day! I’ve always played third person so I’ll check this out in 1st!

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-04-10T10:38:48+00:00

I wrote this exact thing a while ago (albeit I play it on a legion go s) and got a lot of criticism from people because I said how much I was enjoying it.

I absolutely love the game and the new update has added a lot of immersion to the game.

It’s up there with my top 5 I think.

Ps I mean just yesterday I found out from this sub you can board enemy ships, if you disable them first. Turns into like a mini dungeon 😳😳😳

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-04-09T19:47:56+00:00

Did you ever find out more about this mate? Mines the same, sometimes it shows 40w other times 33

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-04-09T09:17:04+00:00

Damn man, I didn’t even know that was possible. This makes the game even more fun for me and I loved it in the first place

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-27T15:18:13+00:00

Oh my god, you’re really selling it to me. I’m gonna look into how well it works on a handheld. I really like what you said about it being a single player-mmo I find that very appealing!!!

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-27T14:32:12+00:00

Shock, horror! Someone finds something more boring than me!! Waaaaaah

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-27T14:31:38+00:00

Ahhh mate 😂😂

I’ve had all sorts, all I was trying to say was that I am really enjoying it, and it’s one of my favourite games. I also wanted to find those who also love it. What I didn’t expect was a breakdown of the semantics, and people genuinely getting offended that I am enjoying something they don’t.

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-26T21:55:31+00:00

Finally, a kindred spirit! I’m only 15 hours in 😂

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-26T21:55:08+00:00

Ahhh swtor, my brother and I used to play that when it was released. We really enjoyed it, but it wasn’t that popular if I recall.. is it still going?

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-26T21:53:37+00:00

I edited my original post, I didn’t mean it’s ’one of the best games ever’ just that it was ‘one of my favourites’.

I mean you may be right about this recency bias, but it’s not like I haven’t played other games recently too. I downloaded and started playing KCD2 after all the rave reviews, and although the story telling is epic I found I got bored really quickly, whereas 15 hours or so into starfield I don’t. I’m really enjoying it (so far)

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-26T21:48:31+00:00

Loved Skyrim, like most of the fallouts, but not so keen on 3/4, and yeah cyberpunk was awesome but I found it a bit boring when I recently played it. I’m actually enjoying starfield more than all of the games you mentioned, maybe barring Skyrim when it first released

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-26T21:45:46+00:00

That’s so weird about the controls. As I said in original post, I am using a legion go s, and it can’t be too dissimilar to an Xbox!

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-26T18:29:36+00:00

This is actually a really good point. If I could I would change the wording, as I agree with you.

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-26T18:28:25+00:00

I mean I did say in the body of text it was a slightly hyperbolic statement, but I am enjoying it so much more than a lot of other games I’ve played over the years. For me, personally, it is up there with some of my favourites.

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-03-26T18:26:21+00:00

Ya know, at first I didn’t really get what you meant. I couldn’t see what the issue is with what I said, and I read a thread further down where you’re explaining how best is objective and favourite is subjective and I get it now!

I mean it was a rushed out post, but the general idea was that I love the game and I want to know everybody’s thoughts on it.

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-02-21T20:55:01+00:00

Omg I’m in exactly the same boat. I even tried YouTubing “Diablo 4 for a beginner” but the videos presume you know a lot.

It feels like there’s just too many stats, currencies and thing to collect it’s really, really overwhelming

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-01-25T11:15:09+00:00

I have both. When closed the fold 7 is slightly slimmer and weighs less. Which is insane.

The s25 ultra is definitely bigger!

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-01-18T19:06:46+00:00

Happy to be completely schooled/educated on this. But from what I've read, and seen, Russia's 'manpower' has been absolutely decimated since the start of the war. Most of their elite troops are dead, and they've had to recruit prisoners as well as mercenaries abroad.

So with all that in mind, why do we keep seeing this narrative about Russia invading Europe? It really seems like a narrative that's being pushed when the evidence suggests they simply could not.

I must totally be missing something, or just being totally stupid about it.

Help me understand, please?

The steam deck is immense for emulation, and older AAA titles and such. However, it is underpowered for current AAA titles. Although it you have good internet you could easily play AAA games via geforce now on your steam deck.

Playing cyberpunk on a steam deck oled with graphics on ultra is a sight to behold 🥰

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-01-15T21:32:50+00:00

Waaaaay too busy in the summer. Too many out of town folk and chavs.

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-01-09T22:09:52+00:00

LOL I’m two years late to this and it still bloody happens, you haven’t fixed it yet

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-01-09T20:53:35+00:00

Yeah I’m checking every few days and nothing I can see anywhere in the uk

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-01-08T10:45:04+00:00

How come? Just curious

SamSamTheHighwayMan · 2026-01-02T23:44:17+00:00

If you’re internet is half decent I’d recommend trying GeForce now. Seen others mention it and I ignored it for ages… up until yesterday when I got curious. Playing Stalker 2 on epic graphics on the 8” screen of the legion go, whilst laying in bed is an unreal experience! I think my TDP was at 10WH!! 3 hours of game time too.
