One of the strong points of Starfield, mentioned in most reviews, is the detail of the scenery. The locations - especially the largest cities - are filled with objects, making the game world in Bethesda's title more credible .

It's possible that its PC version will receive mods soon after release that will push this boundary of realism even further. The same was true, for example, in Skyrim or Fallout 4. Interestingly, a certain author of such modifications was hired by Bethesda to work on Starfield.

We're talking about Emmi "Elianora" Junkarri - her previous works can be found at NexusMods. As for Starfield, Junkarri worked on it since October 2021. Moreover, she revealed to the community on Twitter/X, that for a long time she pretended to have no idea what Starfield is.

Junkarri is one of the people responsible for lighting, interior design and construction, as well as the sets in Bethesda's latest game. Her name appears in the credits, and she admitted that her favorite part of her job has always been interacting with the developers and being able to receive feedback from them - as game developers.

As a reminder, let me add that Starfield will be released in just two days, i.e. on September 6, on PC and XSX/S. Those who have decided to preorder the Premium edition, are playing from September 1. Our review of this title can be found below.
