With a game this large,Starfieldoffers plenty of emergent gameplay opportunities in how players can approach various situations as well as using the game’s tools and mechanics to make something truly unique. There have been no shortage of players sharing their creative spaceships, some designed to mimic designs from other franchises, while otherStarfieldplayers managed to find a way to loot a typically high level space suitmuch earlier than Bethesda intended.

Over on theStarfieldsubReddit, numerous players have started posting short clips of conversations that had some sort of strange or unintended situation pop up. For example, a clip from welshscott5 showed them speaking to Peter regarding a potential job opportunity, only to have another totally random NPC peek in from the left side of the screen before slowly backing out of view. The moment was so unexpected, that welshscott5 admitted they were uncontrollably laughing for 5 minutes straight.

Another clip was posted by TORN4DO, who appeared to be ready for a boss battle instead of a conversation. Seeing the Crimson Fleet boss Brogan ahead, the player launched a grenade before the game triggered the conversation. However, the grenade was still considered live by the game and before Brogan could finish his opening speech, the canister behind them was hit by the explosion, wiping out all three Crimson Fleet pirates.

The final clip comes fromStarfieldsubReddit user YourBoyMillard who’s speaking to Logan in a space bar. After backing out of the conversation, the player heads to the left to find themysterious NPC known as The Hunterwho says “I’ll see you around” and then slowly disappears into the wall. Many people in the comments likened it to the Homer Simpson meme, where he’s backing slowly into a large hedge.

Naturally, Bethesda games are also known for their bugs, sometimes frustrating while occasionally hilarious. In fact, one user recently shared aStarfieldbug that caused their custom built starship to eject only the cockpitwhen taking off, leaving the rest of the ship on the landing pad. While the animation appears normal, the cockpit part of the ship is then the only thing to actually lift off into space, leaving the ship largely unusable even after attempting to reload a save.

Starfieldis available now for PC and Xbox Series X/S.
