Rise of the Beasts Hype Lands In Starfield After Fans Spot An Optimus Prime-esque Structure

If there is anything fans love in a game, it is the ability to customize. Being able to personalize any aspect of the game comes with much appreciation from gamers. It allows them to tailor the character based on how they like it, without having to stick to one model created for every single player. However, it seems Bethesda outdid itself with its customization features for Starfield, even raking in the Transformers franchise in the process.

Developers Bethesda revealed the extensive ship customization options in Starfield during Starfield Direct, building what looks very similar to the Transformers franchise character, Optimus Prime.

Starfield is among the newest gaming sensations. Offering an immersive world with over 1000 planets, spaceships become a crucial part of the game, especially when it comes to exploration. As a result, Bethesda included a comprehensive customization system, showing it off at Starfield Direct.

The ship featured distinct colors found on Optimus Prime. The red-blue-yell0w combination resonates with Prime, especially after the immense success of the Michael Bay-directed movie franchise. The build comes amidst the release of the seventh installment of the franchise, Rise of the Beasts. However, it does not seem fans liked the depiction, dubbing the build “Optimus Crime“.

While the build may not be popular, it did highlight a key aspect of the Starfield game: customization. Specifically, it highlighted the level of customization available to players looking to make specific builds for content or just for fun. The Optimus Prime build is a great example of the external customizations available for players, allowing them to work with different colors and shapes for their ships!

Customization to be a big part of Starfield

The Optimus Prime build was a small showcase of the customization abilities present in the game. After acquiring their ships, players are able to customize them internally as well as externally. These changes determine how your ship performs in certain situations. For example, a lighter, smaller ship is much more maneuverable and performs well in combat. However, they have limited ability in terms of storage to carry cargo.

The creation of Optimus Prime in the game was a fun experience for fans to watch, bringing together two popular phenomenons among fans! Being able to demonstrate the game’s customization features was just icing on the cake for Bethesda!
