Starfield A Paid Mod Worth Your Money DEREK

- This is my review of the paid mod D.E.R.E.K. This mod is only $3 in the creations store and adds a very dialog rich character to your adventures. the dialog added with this character is lore friendly and will add to the immersion of the game. #starfield #starfieldgameplay #mods #bethesda #xbox
I find it noteworthy that a girl's doll marketed in the 1960's continues as a cultural reference.
"Chatty Cathy"
I'm old enough to remember the commercials and the girl next door getting one for Christmas.
Had to google and read bout "Chatty Cathy". In 1960, the doll played eleven phrases! That must have been super high tech!
He got annoying really quick. Kept repeating the same lines and killed a bounty I was trying to capture. I don't remember where I left him
😂
Damn, he's a professional Yapp-ologist
I’m gonna hang on to that word 😀
My wife would agree
I used to have a friend that talked incessantly. I called him the Yappamatic 5000. =)
Thanks for the overview of DEREK, agree on the character build quality.
I agree that this is a professional quality mod. The character is slightly less annoying than The Annoying Fan, but he is a good distraction and bullet sponge and can take down enemies. He is also like Dogmeat in Fallout, in that he does not take up a companion slot.
I have a few niggles, however. Even the modder (who seems impossible to contact) can't get his name right. The game identifies him as D.E.R.-3K, but he is listed in creations as DEREK. There is no mention of what his name abbreviations mean. Nut again, this does not really distract from how good or bad the mod is.
My primary gripe is that I have a three seat cockpit and instead of hiding away like a nice robot as Vasco does, he plops himself right in th4e front windows. This can get you killed quickly as once the cursor passes over him you lose the HUD and can no longer fight or maneuver. saving and loading may bounce him out of the way. If not quitting and relocating is necessary.
As with the game itself, there are a lot of possibilities with this character, but the modder is elusive and getting him to correct glitches or discuss expansions is not possible.
I'm not sorry I paid for it and still use him.
I hope you all like toast
Only at night
Derek is a huge help on extreme mode 😆 free toast
Now all we need is a couple of fully fledged romanceable companions. Preferably from a crimson fleet faction, ones that don’t judge you or criticise your every action and is not boring. Honestly this feature ruins the gaming experience. And I’d happily pay for the mod.🙃
May I suggest no angry companions and crimson X mods. I would like more companions added to game though.
If you are the kind of person that spends money on mods in games this is an excellent purchase. Of all the money I've ever spent on Bethesda games this was the best $3 I ever spent. Side note take him to the key.
This is a good series. I appreciate that you stay true to the Starfield theme.
Starfield's version of C3-PO 😂
When I begin my journey to explore every system of the galaxy, I'm getting D.E.R.E.K.
I would have to agree 👍
Thanks. I love his other mod Professor Boon for Skyrim. I love when DEReK whistles Darth Vaders theme 😂
Thanks for this- I purchased him right after mods dropped and had him tag along only for an hour or so- then promptly forgot about him; I'll bring him back into the fold tonight. He feels a bit like having Robin William's genie from aladdin- especially in combat where he'll cycle through different accents and attitudes. It really is so very well done. The fact that he didn't need to have lip synch or facial animation done really helps- a big reason why Robin Locke feels a bit lackluster
Damn I was like how does it know my name? But it’s apparently just a part of his dialogue.
Wow! Thank you so much my friend. You are now my official endorsed Starfield review content creator. (Subscribed). It was very kind of you, in the wake of the negative gravy train of Starfield mod reviews, to focus upon Derek in a positive light, I am very happy that you have. It gives me a warm sticky feeling inside like Christmas. Bless you and all you do henceforth. 😀
Thank you, I enjoyed the content. It was a perfect fit for me and only added to the immersion of the game.
@@Starfield_Eclipse take him to the key mid crimson fleet mission if you haven’t already 😉
Is everyone Dan ? because my character is a woman and I don't think she will like being called Dan .
Yes, I believe so
He says more words in one minute than I say myself all week. That’s a whole lot to listen to. I relish the loudness of silence, so no I’ll not enjoy him as a companion. Yet an interesting mod from a scientific approach.
Derek is a huge help if u play with 75% xp extreme mode snd he gives u toast... Someone in the comments said take derek to the key no way mathias is my companion forever im going to take him thru the unity lol
There's a new Creation called Kilroy - Multi-Modal Companion that seems pretty interesting. Price is zero Starfield bucks.
Very Douglas Adams-ish.
Does he come with a towel?
Free toast and a fallout new vegas robot cowboy voice
I just did the crimson fleet quest with Derek and it was awesome
I have 300 credits left im going to download this mod if I ever get bored or need a laugh
Derek sounds like obsidian ant. And the dialog sounds like it is from the people who made voice attack.
I don't know if my mod is broken but my Derec is a nightmare, it doesn't diappear in the ship like Vasco so it blocks my path, then when he's in the ship he CONSTANTLY repeat the same phrase, like every second, it drive me crazy! And his "story" dialogues stops after the "ACCESS DENIED" and no more from there... worst paid mod so far 💀
Which version are you on and what platform?
@@IAMPAUL2021 Xbox series X, all my mods works very well except this... 😵💫
@@kiliksang630 which version of Derek is installed? V1 or V2?
@@IAMPAUL2021 i don't know... the only one i can find in the store.
@@kiliksang630 have you talked to him about “memory banks”? He is trying to progress his story
out of curiosity, do you play on pc or console? I know creations applies to both but I'm just curious.
Console, formerly I played BGS games on PC. The upgrade cost to run starfield on PC didn't make sense to me.
@@Starfield_EclipsePcs need a rebranding marketing campaign. I'm worried they gonna vanish. Generation Z doesn't even know how to use them anymore.
I work in data analytics and yes I have to agree with you. The younger generation is lacking in a lot of computer skills.
Thank you for the video, I was curious about him and this just popped up in my recommended. I’ll probably get him!
I think the paid companions are actually quite good tbh👍
I want an HK-47
Me too, someone could easily use AI for the voice acting.
I swear I had that for free 🤣
I'm getting him all because of this video!!!
Cool mod but I can't get it. I'm on PC. Every time I open the creations tab, it disables mods, changes my load order and breaks a bunch of mods.
Creations may be great for console but it sucks on PC.
It does the same on console and its a daily pain in the ass just to play. Have to manually go into creations and disable close out open and reenable for the siund loss bug game boot and even saving load order don't keep order from scrambling
Strange - I play the game on a pc and I use lots of "normal" mods and creations mixed together and I have no problems at all! My game runs with over 150 mods and creations and works just pefect!
@@arnograbner4741 do you use address libraries and sfse?
I will definitely buy Derek. Thanks for the review
Starfield Compendium (also new) seems very interesting to me as an avid outpost builder. Price is 600 Starfield bucks though.
I will have to check it out, I had a $20 gift card sitting since Christmas
@@Starfield_Eclipse Cool. I was hoping to see a review for this mod. I haven't bought anything yet, but this one might sway me.
@@Starfield_Eclipse I decided to buy the expansion upgrade and used the points to buy the Compendium. Unfortunately, it's very limited (hopefully to be expanded in future). It lets you search for resources and shows you what planets they are on but doesn't let you plot a course to get to the system. UI seems to be designed with controller only in mind.
Maybe hold off on purchasing until it gets more features.
No thank you.
Then don't.
Best before you buy video.
Derek is a fun one, only small change I would like would be get out of the way of doors! Thanks for video, well done.
No. He's not worth it at all. Gives you fucking toast. Toast! I spent $3 for toast.
With creations like DarkStar Astro dynamics free these guys should pay us to hear a robot sound like a dude 😂
@@SlyMcToeTaggin I totally agree with you.
You don’t like toast?
@@IAMPAUL2021 If you are the modder, what is the best way to contact you?
Hes a huge help if u play with 75% xp extreme mode
