Playing Starfield and wondering why the NPCs look like they’re dead inside? One developer reckons they’ve worked out why.

      I wasn’t creeped out by character faces from my Amstrad either.

      When you get to the level of realism of Starfield you have to pay attention to the details. If you can’t, just pick a different graphical style.

      I think this is it. I enjoy making fun of the NPCs in starfield but mostly when I’m playing I don’t notice them at all. I do have a few very pretty screenshots of the game. It’s not perfect by any stretch but the scope is impressive and most of it really is pretty good

      I don’t think Bethesda has ever sold based on graphics no matter how much they want to pretend it. Morrowind and oblivion both looked under par when they came out as well.
