The hype train for Starfield is about to reach the station. As the early access date is coming closer, the gaming community cannot wait to indulge themselves in this new world Bethesda has created. However, a lot of conversation is going on in the community regarding the amount of content present in the game. And fortunately, one Starfield dev actually made an amazing comment on this that may change your entire playstyle and approach to playing Starfield when it comes out.
In all of the reveal trailers, devs have boasted about the amount of things you can do in this game. Players have taken this in a really positive way, but it is clear that they are also overwhelmed by it. So many players, naturally, have already decided to only focus on the quest that they think “matters.” This is exactly where this Starfield dev’s advice comes in as he highlighted a pretty unique feature about this game.
Amazing advice was revealed by Starfield Dev during a livestream
Many players may get overwhelmed with the amount of quests they will have to do in Starfield, but Bethesda’s Pete Hines actually gave a totally different point of view regarding this topic during an Xbox Livestream.
“My one piece of advice for folk is: do not ignore your Activities. It feels like throwaway stuff that the game is giving you, but there is some amazing stuff in there.”
He later added that these “Activities,” do not “feel like a real quest,” but they can still take players to “amazing places” and tell “amazing stories.” This comment not only gave the community a great insight into what Starfield is offering but also the attitude they should have while playing this game.

This advice provides a great insight into Starfield
From what has been revealed about Starfield in the trailers and announcements, it is easy to extrapolate the fact that every single detail in this game is worked on pretty seriously by the devs, and every single thing you will encounter in this game will lead to great revelations.
This is great as this game has a huge size, and having more content even when it’s bite-size, is always worth it. This comment also sheds light on another fact, which is that many times Bethesda fans only focus on the side quests and only look forward to that. But here you can see that even smaller “Activities” in Starfield are going to contain stories.
So, avoiding them does not seem like a good idea. Again, according to Hines, even if they are small, they will incentivizes exploration and take players to new places. This is actually very great to hear, as with 1,000 planets accessible for exploration, the players will need good reasons to put in effort and travel to each of them.
