Even though Starfield offers players exciting gameplay and vast scope for space exploration, this game is not without basic RPG mechanics. Skill upgrades are an integral function for all Bethesda games, but they always have some differences. By leveling up and completing small challenges, you can unlock and upgrade dozens of unique skills divided into five groups. At the same time, having increased the level of some skill, you may notice that it is not so good, and then the players have a question. Can you respec in Starfield? Here, you will find the answer.

Starfield: Can You Respec Your Skill Points?

If you’re looking for the short answer, then No, you cannot respec your skill points in Starfield. This information may be disappointing for players for whom this game is a first from Bethesda. Conversely, Fallout and The Elder Scrolls fans are used to this feature. The fact is that once you unlock and upgrade a skill in Starfield, you will not be able to alter your choice until you decide to start a new playthrough. This skill will stay with you until the end, and you will have to level up again to unlock something else.

But fortunately, Starfield offers an alternative, closer to real life. Like previous Bethesda games, Starfield does not have a level cap. More specifically, there is a level cap, but it’s way too high for players to reach it. In addition, unlocking one skill does not block access to another, as is often the case in other RPGs. Thanks to these features, your gameplay is a cumulative process during which you can unlock and improve all your skills to the maximum.

Such an implementation of an upgrade system can be frustrating for many beginners. After all, you must accumulate more EXP to reach each subsequent level. Many players are used to the sweet pill that helps you respec your skill points, but that’s not the case here. But on the other hand, fans who are ready to spend hundreds of hours in the game are not upset. After all, instead of choosing between skills, they can get everything at once.
