Reddit user TheGalacticCactus has shared a video online showing them playing with aStarfieldNPC’s hair. While some gamers from the comments section made jokes about the inclusion of this “feature,” there were a few theories as to why this exists. User Yarasin provided a most likely theory about the situation, as he stated that the hair was probably coded as a physics object so that it looks natural. User SpiderCenturion then chimed in that it was possible that Bethesda just forgot to block interaction with the hair. It’s worth noting that this prompt is not available for other NPCs further implying that it was mostly a coding lapse.
While the above-mentioned explanations tend to make sense, other gamers seemed to poke fun at the gesture. If Bethesda decides to code in a flag to make the interaction official, it could easily fit in with the romance subplot of the game. There are many ways toromanceStarfieldcharacters, and adding the hair play as an official option could add to the title’s realism. The fan suggestions could really help add another layer of personalization if executed correctly.
