2. Operation Starseed

Upon arriving in the Charybdis system, Starfield players will quickly get the chance to decide the fate of troubled settlement known as The Crucible.

While the action and objectives here are all fairly standard fare, the narrative - including a brutal, quest-ending choice for the player to make - turns this into one of the strangest and most memorable subplots in the entire game.

Upon arriving, players will discover several factions made up of clones and get to meet the likes of Franklin Roosevelt and Genghis Khan in the process. As players unravel the mystery and discover the secrets of the many cloned historical figures on offer, Operation Starseed quickly grows into an immersive - if slightly ridiculous - journey.

With several diverse perspectives for players to consider when choosing who to side with, the quest proves to be thought-provoking and intellectually challenging. With more and more potential threats and plot threads, this heady quest gives much of the game's main narrative points a run for their money, keeping gamers guessing as they forge topsy-turvy alliances that could crumble into betrayal at a moment's notice.
