Starfield Player Racks Up 227 Hours Without Sleeping or Eating In-Game
A Starfield player online has claimed an impressive achievement: playing 227 hours in the game without eating or sleeping a single time. They have been able to reach this milestone in the absence of a realistic Survival mode for Starfield.
