Starfield’s art direction is painfully boring. I’ve ben watching friends play. It looks like a totally soulless, characterless distillation of every forgettable science fiction movie in the last 30 years. It sure does look NASA, and NASA doesn’t have an artistic vision, they just slap shit together in whatever way won’t explode. The menus, the costumes, the weapons, even the planets, just look painfully generic. Like congrats, Todd, you successfully executed the NASA part alright. There’s no way you could have made more intensely bland, vague, inoffensive rendition of space. There’s no “punk” anywhere to be seen, though.

: p

I can’t believe they made this shit instead of TES Six. It’s like every 2010s space show that got cancelled half way through the first season.

    The design of Prey was like an alternate reality

    That’s because it is! If you read the magazines laying around, you’ll see that the cold war never happened in the world of Prey. America and Russia reached for the stars together, and the Vietnam war never happened.
