The Art of Outpost Building
Building an outpost in Starfield is a labor of love, requiring both creativity and strategic planning. While the ship builder in Starfield has received near-universal praise, the outpost system also holds its own appeal, providing players with a space to express their creativity, store contraband, and establish a home away from the Lodge. However, the process is not without its challenges, as players need to stock up on resources and invest in specific skills such as Outpost Engineering and Planetary Habitation. The lack of a placement grid makes interior decoration a bit of a chore, but for dedicated players, outpost building becomes an addictive and rewarding endeavor.
Looking to the Future: Shattered Space DLC and Beyond
As the Starfield community eagerly anticipates the upcoming Shattered Space DLC, hopes are high for the introduction of new content, particularly focused on the enigmatic House Va'ruun faction. There is speculation that the DLC may bring Va'ruun-themed habitats to the outpost system, adding a new layer of excitement and possibilities for players. It's worth noting that outposts do not carry over into a New Game Plus in Starfield, which presents a unique challenge for players who wish to commit to a long-term outpost. However, the dedication and creativity of players like Kkell93 continue to inspire the community, showcasing the enduring impact of player achievements in the world of Starfield.
