“It’s Hard To Stay Immersed” – Starfield Loading Screens Are Preventing Players From Enjoying The Space Epic In Its True Form

Starfield is finally here and we are excited to explore its vast map on our spaceships. Since the game’s announcement last year, the community has been waiting to check it out and explore the meaning of creation. However, many fans are complaining about the in-game issues that are hampering the experience.

While we believe such issues are likely to exist in a game with Starfield’s scale, the load screen issue needs to be addressed by the devs as soon as possible.

Starfield’s gameplay being hindered by this issue

An unexpected buzzkill is hindering soaking in the atmosphere, as highlighted by a player on Reddit. According to Redditor unbiased-observer45, the wait time for Starfield is quite an annoying aspect of the game. The post on the group r/Starfield has also garnered a lot of support from the community. Many believe this is exactly what to expect from a Bethesda title, regardless of how much effort went into its development.

The post claims that whatever action you do in Starfield, load screens will appear before you actually get to do it. The post takes the example of the screen appearing even as the character enters the ship or decides to fly out of a planet.

The Redditor clearly states that so many loading screens make it difficult to stay immersed and deter players from experiencing Starfield properly.

Redditor elaborates on the frustration

The community’s anticipation about Bethesda’s Magnum Opus has been sky-high for quite some time. At the Xbox Showcase 2023, more details were shared by the devs. For almost a year, we’ve held our collective breath to witness one of the grandest releases of 2023. The fact that there will be over 1,000 planets with numerous POIs across the galaxy caught many fans’ attention. Fans have also claimed that they expect a lot of such POIs in space as well as on various planets.

However, now that Starfield has finally been released, fans can’t wait to hop on their spaceships and traverse its vast map. Streamers and content creators have already jumped on the bandwagon and have been streaming Starfield for hours. While the initial Metascores aren’t all that great for the game yet, there are dedicated fans who believe such scores mean nothing if players enjoy the game for themselves.
