One of the most hyped-up releases of this year, Starfield, is ready for its release next month. This Xbox-exclusive title has gone gold, with pre-load beginning on August 17. This title is a new IP from Bethesda after 25 years with a new take on the sci-fi genre.

Furthermore, the title contains the best elements from all the previous Bethesda titles. Following the start of pre-load, the devs from Bethesda sat down to answer some of the questions in the heart of the fans. And most of the answers have piqued the interest of fans in the upcoming title.

Starfield devs answer some burning questions raised by fans

Multiple fans raised questions about the in-game mechanics of Starfield. And they were heartily answered by the devs at Bethesda. One of the most asked questions was regarding buying houses and property. Bethesda has confirmed players will be able to buy houses in different cities. Furthermore, some houses and properties will be available as rewards.

While players can buy houses, they are also likely to go to jail. A Bethesda dev revealed, “Yes you can elect to go to jail or pay a fine when you’re arrested (or even resist arrest and try to escape).”

Along with this, Bethesda confirmed there will be 20 companions present in Starfield. They also confirmed the companions won’t be leveling up, but will come with their own set of useful skills. Luckily the fans won’t have to pay their companions multiple times as a one-time payment will suffice.

Some offbeat questions asked by the fans

While the aforementioned questions were asked by the majority of fans, some fans also came up with unique questions of their own. A fan asked can they smuggle goods in their cargo ships. “Yes, you can hide them using special ship modules you can purchase. So, you know, don’t get caught with those harvested organs,” a Bethesda dev replied cheekily.

A fan also asked whether the parents of the character they build will be generated based on looks or will be standard parents. To this question, Bethesda confirmed they have made parents’ designs based on every player’s looks. Furthermore, multiple actors have also provided their voices and acted in the parents’ roles.

With so many new features present in-game, fans are definitely in for a treat on September 6 when Starfield launches. What are your thoughts on the answers given by Bethesda devs? Let us know in the comments section below.
