God of War creator has high praise for Starfield

Jaffe's comments aren't the only praises Starfield received. Now that it's out of Early Access, many are loving Bethesda's latest title, echoing Jaffe's statement. Starfield is a stunning achievement and a passion project done right. Of course, it isn't perfect, and critics are already picking it apart. But, what Starfield lacks can always be improved in future updates and mods, such as better inventory systems and resource management, their criticisms were largely constructive. Those excited about the game also look forward to how the modding community will enhance it, considering it already feels like one of Bethesda's most polished releases.

Starfield's performance, particularly on Xbox Series X, has also been commendable, showcasing remarkable resolution and quality seemingly unattainable even on high-end gaming PCs.

Unfortunately, Jaffe's statement hasn't gone well with everyone on the internet, continuing a recent trend of the review bombings and backlash faced by key personnel for supporting the "other" team. Alanah Pearce, who currently works at Sony Santa Monica and contributed to God of War Ragnarok, also faced flak for streaming Starfield, illustrating that the console tribalism often witnessed online is far from dead. However, this kind of fanaticism doesn't reflect in the attitude among developers. Professionals in the field often applaud each other's achievements, exemplified recently by Naoki Yoshida openly endorsing The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom while doing press rounds for Final Fantasy 16 ahead of its launch.

The real animosity appears to exist mostly among a relatively small but loud subset of fans who are excessively invested in these electronic boxes and what they stand for.

Either way, David Jaffe's endorsement of Starfield isn't just a stamp of quality; it's a call to action. If you've found that it aligns with your taste, Jaffe's advice is clear: don't let console wars or preconceived notions prevent you from diving into this remarkable adventure.

Starfield, in its fledgling days, promises not just a spectacular gaming experience but also a massive step towards unity in a community too often divided by the inconsequential.
