Only thing I disagree with Lord Ryuu on is the performance. Might just be me.. but the more I play the worse certain things get. Akila city runs kind of poorly on my end. Everytime I scan with LB and get out of it, I get a decent amount of stuttering. I've had a few hard crashes and like five lock ups that made me quit manually.

I'd say it runs great at times, but maybe it's playing over 12 hour sessions...

Playing on series x as well.

Overall, buttery in some places, but not the best in others. 85-90% super smooth. Turned off film grain and motion blur as well.

Yeah, performance is definitely Starfield's weakest area imo. While it is a smooth 30 fps most of the time (with the best motion blur system I have ever seen helping it look higher than 30 fps), I do get 0 fps hitches sometimes while just walking around (this is a Creation Engine issue as the same thing happened in Fallout 4, I remember Digital Foundry talking about it years ago). At 54 hours playtime I've had I think 3 hard crashes back to the Xbox Home screen, and I think 6 lock-ups that forced me to reboot the game (these usually happen either when I am waiting in a chair to advance time in game, or during a quicksave or autosave).
