I found that flow of the game works a little bit better if you just don't fast travel at all. I played a lot of Elite and it gave me a little bit of Elite vibes when I just walk to my ship, go thru inside it and sit down. Then I take off "manually" using the button and jump to the target system by manually targeting it and press the jump button.

What Bethesda can do better is to just mask the loading with a flight animation, for example when you're taking off from a planet the loading should be replaced by an animation where you're going out of the atmosphere. And when you're jumping between star systems, the loading should be replaced by something similar to Elite when we're jumping through the witch space.

All in all, my experience with Starfield has been fine. I loved the weird stuff happening when you're just fucking around. Although the main quest has taken a step back with their sense of urgency, compare it to previous Bethesda games, where there's a big stake going on that pushes you to at least complete the main quest once. In Starfield there's no such sense of urgency.

It seems like Bethesda is leaning heavy on their sandbox side, just letting people go around and do stuff.

With optimized settings from the HUB YouTube channel, my FPS never went below 60.
