Fine, that was slightly mean of me. There’s clearly at least fifteen people still playing Starfield , and Bethesda are today rewarding their commitment with a free buggy named the Rev-8. Today! It actually looks pretty nifty.
With it, you’ll be able to hop, jump, and skip the tedious ballache that was hoofing it across the RPG ’s needlessly large planets. Here’s a looksie: Oh, it’s got a missile launcher too. You can’t be bored with that! When astronauts took their rocket buggies to the moon in real life, they certainly weren’t bored! It also looks to have a booster, and either a robot pal in the back or space for a robot pal to sit in the back.
I don’t know the deep robot lore, I’m afraid. “Starfield is indeed a spacefaring adventure of epic scale and sometimes surprising beauty. It's this scale that makes Starfield feel unfortunately small and empty,” wrote Alice Bee (RPS in peace) in her review .
“A place that still has those fun little Bethesda side quests that escalate into something huge and absurd, but that can also swallow them whole in its cold, star-scattered grandeur.” She also wrote “Space. The medium frontier,” which is very funny but didn’t fit in the quote neatly.
