Modders are already delivering improvements for Bethesda's new game. You can already get Starfield FOV and optimization mods from Nexus.

As most PC gamers will have noticed right away when launching the game, there is no Starfield FOV (Field of View) slider in the game’s settings. This is unfortunate since the default setting appears to be 75, which is lower than preferable, especially for those who experience motion sickness when playing in first-person view.

Thankfully, several mods are already starting to appear on Nexus, including some that allow players to increase the Starfield FOV value. User Hellstorm102 provided a downloadable StarfieldCustom.ini file that needs to be placed in the Documents/MyGames/Starfield folder to enable the increased Field of View. The provided file sets FOV to 100 for both first-person and third-person view, though any user can modify the .ini with different values as desired.

Likely, Bethesda will eventually add an in-game Starfield FOV slider at some point, but mods will have to do in the meantime.

    Sure, it just shows a big lack of attention to details in the development process. FoV adjustment missing has always meant the game is severely lacking in many other ways in my past experience.

    Seeing more snippets about the game and how it has cut/paste bases on planets and that sort of thing just makes it look like they’ve got a problem.
