‘Starfield’ fans have extremely mixed reactions to ‘Shattered Space’ DLC
Starfield‘s Shattered Space DLC launched earlier this week (September 30) and fans have given their verdict on the expansion.
YouTuber MRMattyPlays wrote on X/Twitter that “Starfield: Shattered Space is not good. At all,” before adding: “The exploration is still (somehow) extremely lacking, the main story is ridiculously short, it ran like crap on Series X performance mode, there isn’t any new companions, Andreja barely reacts to what happens around her despite how the base game builds her story, and this list goes on.”
Another YouTuber, Luke Stephens, also disliked the expansion. He wrote: “Finished #ShatteredSpace, accidentally, in an afternoon. I thought there’d be a lot more, but the main story is VERY short. Simply, it’s more Starfield. The writing is painfully dry, the characters act like they don’t want to be here, and the lack of optimization is painful.”
Inverse‘s Trone Dowd wrote about how the expansion continues a frustrating crutch in many of Bethesda’s worlds. He added: “The Dazra people’s questionable willingness to place all of their faith in me, a total stranger, immediately decimated all of the mystique Starfield had built around House Va’ruun.”
However, many also praised the expansion. “Love the story, the characters, and the scenery, with a splash of terror,” wrote ttvDoctorJay. “People now days are so damn negative. It annoys the piss out of me. To all the haters out there, screw you!”
“So Shattered Space is actually OK, not Far Harbor levels of awesome, but it’s OK, it looks pretty,” wrote DarRamesnis. “It’s fantastic so far,” added xCaptRedbeard.
In other news, Steven Spielberg is apparently such a big PC gamer that he refuses to use a controller and will only use a keyboard and mouse.
