Epic Crossover: Witness Arthur Morgan's Mind-Blowing Adventure in Starfield!

Highlights

Starfield's character creator is incredibly versatile, as demonstrated by a player who recreated Arthur Morgan from Red Dead Redemption 2.

Fans have dedicated ample time to refining their designs in Starfield's character creator, prior to embarking on their interstellar ventures. Despite its complexity and need for experimentation, the character creator in Starfield presents endless possibilities for crafting distinctive characters, with the potential for future enhancements to its user interface by modders.

A Starfield player went to great lengths to faithfully recreate Arthur Morgan from Red Dead Redemption 2 in Bethesda's latest game. Their impressive accomplishment showcases the remarkable versatility of Starfield's character creator. The highly anticipated RPG is scheduled for release on September 6th for current-generation Xbox consoles and PC. However, those who purchased a higher-tier edition of the game have had the opportunity to access Starfield since September 1st.

Many fans took advantage of the opportunity to start their space-faring adventures five days early. However, not all of them immediately embarked on their journey to the stars. Instead, some chose to spend a significant amount of time in the game's character creator. One such individual is Reddit user ShhMyLegsAreSleeping, who recently took on the task of recreating Red Dead Redemption 2's Arthur Morgan in Starfield. For their creation, the player opted for Arthur's clean-shaven look, which is only unlocked after completing a specific mission in Chapter 4 in Saint Denis. Their efforts yielded an astonishingly accurate resemblance to the beloved protagonist from Rockstar's popular game.

When discussing this achievement, the creator explained that they started with the third Starfield face preset as a foundation for their design. They then meticulously sculpted each part of the character's face until they were satisfied with the final result. This indeed proved to be a challenging task, as the Starfield character creator lacks user-friendliness. Most facial features, such as the forehead, eyes, nose, and chin, are shaped by adjusting various sliders. Surprisingly, these sliders are labeled as "shape blends" without any additional guidance or explanation.

Creating a specific face in Starfield using the current UI approach requires extensive trial and error for new players. However, the character creator itself is equally powerful compared to its more user-friendly counterpart in Fallout 4. Therefore, fans who wish to design in-game versions of themselves or others can achieve this with sufficient patience. Additionally, PC players can look forward to future mods that will offer a more intuitive character creation interface in Starfield.

This impressive portrayal of Arthur Morgan in Starfield is just one example of how fans utilize the game's character creator to design intergalactic adventurers inspired by other media franchises. Another player, during the RPG's early access period, decided to take on the role of Tony Soprano in Starfield and shared their experience online.

Starfield launches September 6 for PC and Xbox Series X/S.
