The Starfield Direct showcase is coming, and I already know exactly what I want from it. As a big fan of RPGs and story-driven experiences, there's nothing I love more than when my choices have direct consequences on me, the world around me, and/or those who surround me. Outside of customization, there's no better way to make us feel like we're shaping an adventure of our own than by giving us options for navigating scenarios, and choosing what approaches to take. From everything we've seen and heard about Starfield so far, Bethesda's highly anticipated space-faring role-player looks set to put choice at the heart of the experience. As Todd Howard said during the initial gameplay reveal last year, "It's not our story, it's the story you create by who you are and the choices you make".
Of course, that "starts with character creation", says Howard, with Bethesda once again giving us the chance to customize and create our very own space adventurer. While we've seen some of the game's customization options so far – such as perks that come in the form of Starfield traits that we can choose for our character – we've yet to see much about how our choices will impact our journey among the stars. With the Starfield Direct scheduled for June 11, we're in-line for another fresh helping of Starfield gameplay, and as an experience that promises to let you "be who you want", I for one want more on how our choices, and their consequences, will determine the outcomes of our adventures.
