Todd Howard hints at new ways Starfield will use outer space

Bethesda promised improvements to space travel in Starfield late last year, but the seamless experience fans hoped for after the game's 2023 launch has not yet arrived. The possibility resurfaced after a recent conversation between Todd Howard and Kinda Funny, in which Howard said: "It's updates and things that change the game, not in an isolated way, but sort of 'meta.'" He added players would be "Using outer space and things in ways that we haven't." Some players have taken those lines as a hint toward seamless travel.

One comment on Reddit combined Howard's words with remarks from Tim Lamb and concluded: "Taking both Tim Lamb's and Todd Howard's comments into account, I'm really struggling to see what else this could mean at this stage," they say. "There will probably be plenty of updates to various gameplay systems, but I think the major feature will be this: seamless travel between planets.

No more fragmented gameplay interrupted by loading screens, we'll genuinely feel the trip from one world to another." Reactions are mixed.
