Starfield fans are planning which character they're going to romance first, and it's getting steamy

Uh oh. Starfield fans are planning which characters they’re hoping to romance - and it’s already getting steamy in here.

It’s been a long while since I’ve sensed this amount of hype surrounding a game. Sure, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Hogwarts Legacy, and God of War Ragnarök were all huge deals, but something feels different when it comes to Starfield. People aren’t just looking forward to the release of the game. They’re excited to have a new intergalactic world that they can truly lose themselves in - which should be easy considering there’s over 1,000 planets, plus the various branching paths you can follow and factions you can join. You can decorate your own apartment - it’s really a world that’s yours to explore, which also includes choosing your romantic partner. Let me tell you, Starfield fans already have strong thoughts.

Take a look at Starfield’s story trailer below.

Reddit user QueenxDillon started the conversation with a picture of Sarah Morgan, chair of Constellation, with the caption, “First romance definitely gonna be her.” This unsurprisingly set off a chain of discussion. Many also have Sarah as their target. “Whoa, get in line pal,” wrote SeniorBaker, while BuckshotLaFunke just said, “Bonk.” Straight to the point I see.

Sarah wasn’t the only topic of discussion though. Dormideous wrote, “Speak for yourself, I’m f**king the robot as soon as I press play.” Damn … okay. ChunkeeMunkee3001 said, “I’m just hoping Noel is in the romance line-up,” with many others agreeing.

Wookie301 said, “I’m gonna f**k an alien,” and I’ve got to be honest, I really can’t see that being an option. Others mentioned that they’re excited for modders to work their magic and I’m scared to even think about what that means. Anyway, we don’t have long until you get your romancing pants on.
