From the responses it seems like it’s a divisive game. You either like it or don’t. I’ll probably wait until it’s on sale and modded tear it apart like you recommended. And it’s funny running a steam deck how pretty much every game (even ancient ones like 688i Hunter-Killer) works out of the box. Just enable Proton and play. Now if only Vortex worked as easily… So I’m not too surprised Starfield works. I watched an hour of gameplay and it looks like it has the scavenging, but I didn’t see any use for it besides the fill-spaceship-with-random-object meme.

You can craft stuff, upgrade weapons and space suits. Lots of things are just crap to sell, and here’s a thing I enjoy doing: I find a mission asking me to kill a pirate in a ship somewhere, go there, “convince” them to let me in their ship, then I “negotiate” a transfer of ownership. I land somewhere I can buy and sell ships, sell my new acquisition. ALL THE CRAP it had gets moved into my ship. I go sell dozens of note pads, singular playing cards, half eaten sandwiches and so on, all nearly worthless stuff but it adds up lol
