Let’s fly to Pluto…..

During a weekend stream on Twitch, Pearce set course for Pluto, pointing her ship directly at Starfield’s virtual version of the dwarf planet. "I'm leaving my ship running while I sleep to see if I eventually collide with Pluto in some way, for science," Pearce said in a post on X. Pluto was chosen because of its slow orbit, making it a relatively stable point in space to aim at. Still, Pluto moved about enough that Pearce had to course correct every 30 minutes or so, setting a timer to wake up.

Seven - yes, seven - hours later, Pluto loomed over the horizon. What happened next was an anticlimax. As Pluto neared its pixelated form presented itself. “I can’t believe I’m about to touch Pluto,” Pearce said. But there is no realistic representation of Pluto to be found travelling in this way. Pluto, it seems, is nothing more than a blocky, grey picture in space, and Pearce eventually travelled straight through it. There is no forced landing animation. It’s all an illusion. “I don’t know what to do,” Pearce said, nonplussed.

Quite funny, sort of thing I would do also.
It’s a sandbox mentality after all.

Man has always wondered what’s outside our own galaxy, now we know lol

Big disappointment. No space exploration in a space game

I don't think Starfield was ever marketed as being a space simulation. If that's something you want then something like Elite or No Man's Sky is going to be much more suitable.

If you want a Bethesda style RPG where you complete missions and explore planet surfaces then you'll like Starfield.

If you primarily want a space simulation game then this isn't going to be the game for you.

It’s not the point, it was a natural challenge to go visit ‘another planet’. See how far the devs and the engine was created. Heard of Easter eggs? What would have happened if they had landed on Pluto and found a Deathclaw sunbathing.
Devs were more imaginative decades back, now they’re boring. Every Xmas games used to put lights up etc. Doom had Xmas baubles cacodemons, OFP had lights on the trees in forests. Now it’s ‘what’s xmas’ because of the political nonsense

Imagine leaving your pc on all night just to see something you can accomplish in seconds by changing the player.ship speed set to 99999

Bethesda games have plenty of Easter eggs. Go shoot your little shot somewhere else
