Starfield's own adoring fan has assembled 86,000 words of pre-release research across 1,071 pages
An extremely dedicated Starfield fan has taken it upon themselves to create a compendium for Bethesda's upcoming space RPG, one that now sits at 1,071 pages and 86,000 words.
Reddit user u/Gokamo has shared their progress in a post over on the Starfield subreddit, with the caption: "Added over 600 new pages from the direct, leading to well over 1000 pages and 86k+ words of Starfield information and analysis."

You can view the unofficial Starfield compendium via Google Docs - be warned though it's a big file and will take some time to load if you just want to preview it. Some of the document's chapters include topics like concept art, interviews with Todd Howard and other Bethesda developers, trailer analysis, and gameplay videos - basically, if you ever need to know something about Starfield, Gokamo has you more than covered.
If it wasn't already obvious, this isn't something Gokamo has been asked to create, it's simply a passion project by one enthusiastic fan for others to read. That being said, Bethesda, if you are reading this, the creator of the document has
