Thank you to the tireless modders for making my first Starfield experience fantastic!

During my playthroughs of previous Bethesda games since Morrowind (back when they were called 'plugins'), I have always been impressed by the work people put in to make these games rise even higher than their original release.

This is all thanks to curious, talented individuals learning how to use the creation kits, and sitting their over many hours troubleshooting until it works. Then, now more than ever, with constant updates in modern games, having to fix their own mods when the game gets overhauled. The rush of constant updates I've seen on nexus has been something to behold.

Though people mean well when they refer to a 'modding community', I think it's fitting to pay tribute to the individuals that have done just this. I hope they are aware how much some of us enjoy and appreciate what they have made.

I just spent the last weekend playing Skyrim with a large number of mods that made the game extremely immersive and fun to play. This game by all accounts plays and feels different from previous Bethesda games, especially taking into account the scale of the mechanics.

Waypoint/destination marker for planets

Curious why nothing like this is available.

Basically, for people who want to use cruise mode and avoid using fast travel, a way to mark the destination you are trying to get to so that it shows up like a persistent mission objective.

This would come in handy so that during cruise mode and other free flight, you know approximately where it is and can target it.

My goodness, did the artists go to a lot of trouble designing the food.

I'm just amazed. This is Skyrim times 20. At least 16 times the detail.

Really impressive. Mean it.

What Sustenance/Food mod or setting do you use that still keeps the game fun? (April 2026)

I really would like to play with a setting on but what is on offer sort of perplexes me in their designs.

The base game sustence feature.... has it in but does not provide any way to tweak it. Currently it forces you to eat and drink something every 30 minutes...

This is ridiculous in my opinion and makes the game far less fun.

I mean... ideally I could imagine one where it makes you do it every 6 or 8 hours, and does not count sleeping and fast travel. Less realistic? maybe. More fun, certainly.

Any ideas or suggestions?

For now, I've just turned it all off.

No, this game is being serious... Different biomes on same planet. Wow.

Before ripping myself away from my first planet, I decided to try and call the games bluff:

I am sure there are different planets with different biological patterns.

But what about Kreet, a rocket planet, if I scanned it and decided to go to an area that apparently is full of water, on the far north, far away from where the previous mission building was.

It's already astonishing that you can land on different parts of the same planet, but then to arrive somewhere with snow.... (on the same planet).

Pretty amazing. At least I think so, as I am still in my honeymoon phase. I guess I'll get out and look around....

I can't believe I actually took this photo within 10 minutes of playing (first one ever)

While trying to figure out how the ship works... and I still dont get all of it, like how to get that circle out of the way so i can enjoy the scenery...

I realized how bloody impressive the system here actually is.

Admittedly last space sim I played was Freelancer last year... I couldn't believe I could engage in space combat, then track the wreck... move towards the wreck to salvage the cargo...

then... drive up to it, stop... And get out of the seat! To walk around the ship! And you can see the wreck and the rest of space outside of the window!!! I've never seen an engine do all of that seamlessly, it's usually one or the other, not both!

In Photomode, you can pause time and get the perfect shot, including of you in the cockpit. Awesome.

EDIT: Figured it out. Middle Mouse/view change button. Hold it a bit and the HUD will disappear, allowing you to enjoy the view.

First Game: I'm guessing this character makes sense lorewise?

family, from united colonies, raised universal.

Some interesting stuff here so far even though I have no clue what any of it is about.

Figured: religion, quirky background and country background made sense.

Best Mods for a first time playthrough? (April 2026)

As of now, installation is at 36% so I am looking into what essential mods I should have on for my first playthrough, particularly as someone who knows Bethesday cames well.. Can't wait. Really excited.

So far, based on some older posts (but also checking whether they've been updated for this version of the game or not, I have:

-StarUI + Free Landes Patch

-Real Fuel - Immersive Exploration

-Unofficial Starfield Patch - USFP (Community patch is 2 years old now, so I assume it doesn't work)

-Cost Of Spacing

-Spacefaring Economy

-Green and Gold (coz Banks should never have been removed since Daggerfall)

-Baka Achievement Enabler (SFSE)

-Show Star Names on Map

-Desolation. Maybe a light POI mod so that they don't ruin immersion by repeating?

Not sure if Royal Galaxy should be left till later...

Basically to keep me going before the 'Starfield Revisited' Collection on Nexus gets updated and I really blow this game up.
