When it comes to making immersive, believable worlds, videogames have an interesting problem. It seems to be that the ones that try the hardest to create a truly absorbing setting that offers both limitless freedom and infinite realistic details are also the ones that are the most difficult to get immersed into and Bethesda's Starfield is one of those games... but why?
What makes Starfield such a flawed game, despite seeming to have the best of intentions, and what techniques can games use to make their settings more immersive and avoid this pitfall of broken suspension of disbelief? Well, as it turns out, The Architect has found two ways, one that places the player front and centre of the world, another that reduces them to a background detail. What matters is that these games actually pick one.
