In the massively-anticipated game Starfield, space exploration is its own reward. Good thing too, because the slow storyline isn't the star of the show.

Bethesda SoftworksWhen the game begins, you're a miner working in the Settled Systems. No one really goes on voyages of discovery anymore — that's the romantic dream of a bygone era. But when you stumble on a mysterious artifact deep inside a cave, it sets off events that will take you deep into the unknown.

I was more than down for that journey. I've spent entirely too much time tooling around on backwater planets, examining new flora and fauna, and debating between joining the Freestar Collective and United Colonies. I've brought coffee to a janitor in New Atlantis and gotten arrested for stealing on Mars. I've even set up helium outposts on the moon. Starfield offers fantastic adventure, if you have the patience for it.
