Warning: Minor spoilers for the opening few missions of Starfield Shattered House lie forward.

Starfield’s Shattered House DLC arrived yesterday, and there is a good probability you’ve got already began it, or binged it in a single evening when you’re nonplussed about sleep. Whereas I have not completed the latter, I did convey alongside the one base sport companion that has a connection to Home Va’ruun for the bits I’ve performed thus far. Must you convey her alongside too? Properly, kinda, and also you seemigly would possibly find yourself working right into a bug that makes it completely pointless.

Andreja’s the companion I am speaking about right here, since her complete factor is that she’s Constellation’s resident Home Va’ruuner and would certainly be a very good candidate to convey again residence to Va’ruun’kai, proper? In spite of everything, it’s her residence planet, and when you’ve ended up good mates together with her like my most important Starfield character has, she’ll most likely be part of your crew anyway.

I am going to begin with the excellent news. I can verify that when you do convey Andreja alongside – which I am hardly the one individual to have determined to do – she does have a good quantity of distinctive chatter within the early phases of you arriving in Home Va’ruun’s system and beginning to discover their capital metropolis, Dazra.

She’ll interject feedback into a few conversations, say a few issues as you discover Dazra, and have a bit chat with you not lengthy after you arrive about how she feels returning to the town and seeing its present predicament. What I am about to say will most likely be no surpise to Starfield veterans, however whereas she does present some good additional perspective about Home Va’ruun, none of this truly appears to substantively change how these occasions and quests close to the start of the DLC play out. When you flip up alone, as I additionally did, you will not see a lot of a distinction.

Whereas this can be a bit disappointing, some gamers are reporting having a a lot worse time of it after bringing Andreja alongside, taking to Reddit to voice how unusual they discover it that in her playthroughs, she hasn’t stated something distinctive in any respect. People appear to reckon this is because of a bug of some form making the bits of dialogue I discussed not set off for some cause, with one submit suggesting a long-running subject with the management perk or gadgets/consumables that increase how shortly you acquire companion afinity is in charge.

Fortunately, it appears like modder Deebz96 has already recognized the contemporary situations of this subject affecting Andreja, which appears to be attributable to a easy tweak to the companion’s actor worth test code, and submitted a repair for it to the Starfield Group Patch venture.
