Don't forget that Bethesda forgot to give the coachman in starfield a trigger and had to patch it in later.

I fucking hate/love these developers

Things I found in Starfield that I'm sure are totally fine. 🙂👍

This skeleton fused into a wall of goo.

This hot spring FULL of alien eggs on a planet described as devoid of life.

This toilet.

A refrigerator full of plushies stacked with Chunks brand apples.

A weird pile of blood, bones, viscera, and branches. (Turns out it was a Terrormorph nest.)

And a dead body that doesn't know it's dead.

BONUS!

Nothing weird about this, just funny. Two notes found in the same room.

Parade Shield from Florence, Italy dated between 1380 - 1450 from Florence on display at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, England

This rare shield would have been used for ceremonial purposes only. It boldly declares the identity of the Villani Family, who were wool merchants in Florence. Their arms dominate the surface, and when not in use the shield would have been put on display in their home.
