Bethesda recently unspooled a tantalizing web of chronology sweeping across 300 years, promising a massive and deep narrative so vast it could rival the legends of old.
The studio's latest venture, Starfield, is a canvas painted with the colors of exploration, betrayal, and cosmic mysteries, with a journey that begins in 2050 - an era where humanity's tenacious spirit eventually led to it to landing on mars. The red planet's rugged landscapes now bear the footprints of humanity, serving as the prologue to a story that spans, not just planets but galaxies. In the coming half-century, space not only becomes a destination but also a home. These were the golden years of human colonization, culminating with mankind spreading its wings and reaching the Alpha Centauri star system by 2156.
The immense sea of stars, however, wasn't without tempests. It birthed entities like the United Colonies and the Freestar Collective, reminiscent in some ways to the historical dichotomy of the Union and the Confederacy. The skirmish, known as the Narian War, unfolded between 2196 to 2216. The peace that followed, much like in our ancient histories, wasn't an easy one, shattered shortly when the Freestar Collective, in what can be likened to a tragic dance of political maneuvers, broke the Treaty of Narion, sparking the Colony War in 2307.
