Starfield alien-hunters claim to log 200+ unique creatures, about five times more than Fallout 4

A group of dedicated Starfield alien hunters claims to have located and photographed over 200 unique creatures while exploring the cosmos, a number that’s pretty breathtaking in comparison to other Bethesda games if accurate.

Given how vast the game’s world is (1000 planets, anyone) it’s not surprising that it would have a lot more wildlife packed into it than a post-apocalyptic wasteland or a single fantasy province, but the number being quoted here would put it into truly uncharted territory. Leave it to Facebook to house some potentially cutting-edge research, I guess.

The group that claims to have turned over every rock in the cosmos to see what crawls underneath goes by the name ‘Creatures of Starfield’ and serves a hub dedicated to “capturing the beauty and diversity of the creatures that inhabit the cosmos”. Recently, the group’s head honcho, Alex Kushner, who goes by the Reddit username blazer380, has taken to the Starfield subreddit to share an image collage they claim shows “all 209 Starfield creatures photographed and located”.

Skyrim gets one of Baldur's Gate 3's best spells

The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim has somehow took on a new life as a sort of melting pot for anything cool from pop culture, as well as other games. We've all seen the mods that bring FromSoftware combat to the game, such as this Sekiro mod for Skyrim.

If there's a cool move or spell or even sound cue from a popular thing, it's probably going to end up being turned into a Skyrim mod. That's exactly what happened to Eldritch Blast - one of the best spells in Baldur's Gate 3. Eldritch Blast is basically a sort-of Fus Ro Dah, so it makes sense that it would quickly find its way to Skyrim.

In Baldur's Gate 3, Eldritch Blast is a Warlock cantrip, and it's a particularly powerful one for being a starting spell. A cantrip is a skill that doesn't use up a skill slot, and can be used an unlimited number of times between long rests.
