"Immersion" when every NPC stands around doing nothing in a t-pose and some of them sit half in the ground.
Not really sure where you got immersion from. The entire city is also just a prop on planets you can't really interact with (except the space port part).
I've felt more immersed in Cyberpunk.
To be fair, starfield NPCs see through walls, and stare into your soul at all times.
Lets not pretend the bar is high in either game when it comes to NPCs.
That does still sound a whole lot better than t-posing, tbh.
They also t-pose, just not often. And sometimes they vibrate, before hovering into the air? Idk the NPCs in Starfield are weird as fuck sometimes. It just felt like a hilarious thing for them to choose when the meandering NPCs aren’t really the focus of either game, but less so SC.
