Summary

  • Starfield player creates an impressive ship resembling a Head and Shoulders shampoo bottle, showcasing the game's building mechanics.
  • Starfield ship-building feature met with praise despite mixed reviews; players demonstrate creativity with unique designs.

A Starfield player online has transformed their in-game ship into a bottle of Head and Shoulders shampoo in impressive detail. This latest creation shows exactly what Starfield's ship-building mechanics can do by recreating a real-life item that most people will recognize.

Prior to Starfield's launch, Bethesda hyped up the ship-building mechanics massively, promising that players would be able to let their imaginations run wild and bring their ideas to life. While many gamers felt that Starfield didn't live up to expectations in various aspects on launch, even its most staunch detractors would admit that the ship-builder was impressive. In the time since, players have created tons of unique ships. Just recently, one Starfield fan recreated the ship from Spaceballs. It's cool to see how creative players are being with these tools - long may it continue.

Starfield Mod Makes Huge Improvement to the REV-8

A new mod for Starfield makes a massive improvement to the newly-added REV-8 vehicles, giving them more functionality in Bethesda's RPG.

Redditor this-is-my-p shared their impressive Starfield ship build with the game's community online, and players generally found it hilarious. It looks just like a bottle of Head and Shoulders shampoo, even keeping with the recognizable white and blue color scheme. Comically, the user described the ship as "head and shoulders above the rest," and it's honestly a fair assessment. It actually looks like it would be a functional ship in Starfield, making this all the more impressive.

Starfield Head and Shoulders Bottle Ship Creation

One player in the thread joked that they "didn't know the crew had dandruff," while this-is-my-p replied, "Not any more once we switched to this ship!" Although it was recently revealed that Starfield almost had a completely different ship-building system, it's creations like this that make it easy to appreciate the route Bethesda did eventually take. The user this-is-my-p paid credit to Starfield modders, as this ship build uses several mods to come to life.

Over a year after the game's original launch, Starfield's Shattered Space expansion is finally approaching. Whether the DLC touches much on the ship-building mechanics remains to be seen, but considering it's already one of the game's biggest strengths, it may not be an area of priority for Bethesda. Regardless, it will be interesting to see how Shattered Space is received by players. Starfield has faced an uphill battle for fan approval since launch, with Bethesda continuing to improve the game in various ways throughout the last year. Shattered Space is a huge opportunity to permanently change the narrative around the game, which remains mixed to this day, despite all of the positive updates.
