I should have been more precise. Doors to other areas (quests, caves, etc).

With Star Citizen it makes absolutely no difference what it's installed on. HDD, SSD, NVME, QNAP at 40Gbs, RAMdrive - it performs atrociously no matter what.
Well it's not doing bad considering it doesn't fully release until the 6th.
It's the Anti-Citizen. You can actually play it before release.Well it's not doing bad considering it doesn't fully release until the 6th.
Yep. I've talked to people with $5,000 rigs and they'll ask me why the game runs like sh*t. I have to explain to them that it's very poorly optimized.
Considering that right now only the 100$/€ Premium Edition is out that is not too shabby.

All is well in Citizenland, the spice will flow.

Parallel reality which include seamless space/planets and ship interiors to play with friends.
Seamful fidelity.
What's nothing compared to Baldur's Gate 3, the early access launch of Starfield? The concurrent-players and twitch viewers for Starfield's early access are massively higher than for Baldur's Gate 3's early access.
As it is, SC & Sq404 would pray for numbers anywhere near what BG3 and SF are getting.

starfield is not doing early access. they are just milking people for an extra 30 bucks to get the game a few days earlier.
i would never support a dev that gets up to these shenanigans, right?
"get the game a few days earlier" sounds like early access to me
Just like SC super fanatics like to say "there is no time limit on alpha" there is no time limit on early access too.
$30 gets early access and the first expansion DLC for Starfield.
Meanwhile, I'm waiting for my Game Pass copy to unlock on Tuesday, excited!
Tuesday - that's not too bad. I'm waiting for the full Steam release .. on Thursday
At least it gives me a chance that I might get my first BG3 playthrough done by then
Edit: In BG3 I blew up a badass Dragon by surrounding it with fireworks and setting fire to them when it woke up today - I wish there was a space game that had so much freedom to just try mad stuff.

I'm still waiting for Star Citizen, a USB drive, a special green box, SQ404, and an actual BG3
All the drives had to be refactored (melted down and changed to USB C) and Chris made them change the green box to blue, then back to green again, then back to blue again, then bac...I'm still waiting for Star Citizen, a USB drive, a special green box, SQ404, and an actual BG3

Some games try to fake existence, others even don't try
And some games know when to try to fake existence, SC does not.
You don't understand. Once you install Star Citizen, your PC stops being a PC. It becomes a literal wormhole to the 'verse. What you see on screen, is not a bunch of rendered images, it is real-time footage from a camera sent to the other side. There is no pretending, no bits and voltages, no smoke and mirrors, loading and unloading of data to and from various memory chips.
There is only an authentic, physical 'verse.
This is why SC's performance is what it is - sending image from a parallel universe is hard.
The real pioneering work for FPS games having "seamless" transitions through doors, lifts and transport systems took place in the early 2000's with games like Half Life 2, if not earlier games like Quake 2.
That's why why FPS engines already have those now mature features including Cryengine.
Not every game is a "first person shooter" which is why more suitable engines are used for RPG and MMO mechanics that would be ludicrous to use something like Cryengine for.
