Starfield doesn’t offer players the biggest variety of weapons. It’s similar to Fallout 4 in that respect. However, it makes up for this by offering multiple variants of these weapons—and some are pretty powerful. Take the Maelstrom, for example. This basic assault rifle appears early in the game. The standard variant of this gun leaves much to be desired. Even fully modified, it’s underpowered and lethargic. However, if you encounter a legendary variant, it’s a different matter.
