A new mod has been released for Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG, Starfield, that allows players to experience seamless space travel. Developed by modder 105gun and known as Slower Than Light, this mod lets players control the speed of their ship using hotkeys, enabling them to travel between planets without any load times. This eliminates the need for fast travel and makes it easier for players to explore different locations.
The mod, however, does not allow players to land on planets, similar to the mechanics in No Man’s Sky. This is a limitation that may be addressed by future mods. Starfield, in its original state, requires players to fast travel to visit planets and solar systems, resulting in loading screens that can be time-consuming and interrupt the immersion of the game.
Since its release earlier this year, Starfield has received several quality-of-life mods, including a FOV Slider, an in-game map for navigation, and an inventory UI revamp. These mods have added to the overall experience of the game and have been well-received by the gaming community.
While Starfield has faced criticism and received a mixed reception, with IGN giving it a 7 out of 10 rating, the game’s expansive roleplaying quests and engaging combat have been praised. The addition of mods like Slower Than Light enhances the gameplay experience, allowing players to delve further into the vast universe of Starfield.
Overall, the introduction of this mod gives players more freedom and flexibility in exploring the game’s universe. With seamless space travel, Starfield becomes a more immersive and enjoyable experience for PC players.
