October 03, 2023 EP 21: News of the Week, FTC versus Microsoft Continues, and more.
Hey everyone and welcome to Starfield Pulse Episode 21.
This week on Starfield Pulse we are going to talk about some of the best stories of the week, the FTC still taking on Microsoft, and touch upon the upcoming slate of RPGs and open-world games coming out this month.
I’ll also share some of the answers to the question I left for everyone on Spotify last week.
Headlines of the week:
In the NO poop headline of the week, we have this one from Eurogamer: https://www.eurogamer.net/starfield-was-made-to-be-played-for-a-very-long-time
A lot of these are going to come from stuff out of the Todd Howard interview we covered last week: This one has a cool Batman picture in it: https://www.gamesradar.com/todd-howard-didnt-expect-your-starfield-ships-to-go-so-hard-if-you-give-the-people-the-tools-they-will-surprise-you-so-much/
This is another example of someone taking a Reddit post and creating an article about it. I… don’t know what we are doing here people. But I guess I’m part of the problem https://www.dexerto.com/starfield/starfield-companions-cant-stop-talking-about-their-exes-and-players-are-over-it-2318117/
This one is really cool and from a surprising source: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/octobers-rps-game-club-pick-is-starfield
Multiple people tackled this one. Todd said you don’t need all that junk, and to Todd I say. BOO!
Of course I need all that junk!
We had a giveaway. Make sure you are following me on Twitter because I do these from time to time.

Let’s talk about that MSFT case
Depending on time let’s dive into some more articles.
Do you think the companion AI is sufficient?

How would you improve the companion AI?

I would make them more useful when they are in your ship like having them man the guns
Tanya Hernandez • 5 days ago
I'd make them not run in front of me when I'm fighting enemies! 😆
Darth Daddie • 6 days ago
Do away with they them
Liam • 6 days ago
Maybe allow them to loot things like f a certain rarity that the player missed. I always think about how much gear I’ve missed from dead bodies
Would you like to see me talk about more RPGs than just Starfield?
