Highlights

  • A Starfield player created a blue version of famous actor Willem Dafoe, showcasing the game's flexible character creation system.
  • Despite initial controversy, many players are returning to Starfield ahead of the upcoming Shattered Space expansion.
  • Players have also recreated celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon in Starfield, highlighting the game's character creation potential.

A Starfield player has recently recreated the movie star Willem Dafoe in the game, but with a curious twist: he’s blue. Starfield has a pretty flexible character creation system, and the blue Dafoe is just the latest example of what skilled players can do with it.

Released last year, Starfield was a big hit, appearing on a few lists of most-sold games, despite being available on day one on Game Pass. While Starfield had a somewhat controversial critical reception, including review bombing from players, Bethesda recently shared more information about its upcoming Shattered Space expansion, and many players are returning to the game.

Now, one player called OkRing7470 accidentally made a blue Willem Dafoe in the game while playing around with Starfield’s character creation system. Willem Dafoe is a 68-year-old American actor who has been working in movies since the 80s. He has been in numerous films over the years, including starring in high-profile roles such as Norman Osborn, also known as the Green Goblin, in the 2000s Spider-Man movies. Unfortunately, OkRing7470 did not share detailed instructions on how they achieved such a similar-looking character, but the post managed to entertain the community and gained over 1,200 upvotes.

Starfield Player's Blue Willem Dafoe

Curiously, this is not the first time a Starfield player recreated Willem Dafoe in the game, though. Last year, another player did the same, turning their protagonist into the famous actor, but this time with the right skin color.

Designing specific characters in Starfield can be challenging, but due to the flexibility of the game's character creation system, many gamers have succeeded in recreating famous individuals. For instance, one gamer recreated Leonardo DiCaprio in Starfield, coming up with a model that was praised by the community due to how similar it was.

While most of these creations intentionally resemble these famous people, some gamers, like OkRing7470, achieve these results accidentally while trying to come up with the perfect character. This was the case for a gamer who created Matt Damon in Starfield last year. This gamer was going through character creation when their wife pointed out that the character they were creating had an uncanny resemblance to the Jason Bourne character, played by Matt Damon. After that, the player decided to keep the character instead of continuing to tweak it. Hopefully, other dedicated players will share their creations with the community in the future, showcasing the huge potential of Starfield’s character creation system.
