So you have already made the right choice and decided to play Starfield on PC. Provided your beloved WarMachine can run it, Starfield offers a whole world of console commands to play with. Activating these, in some cases, will stop you from getting achievements in the game. You can tell which save files are affected by commands by the M symbol beside the save file. The best thing to do is create a separate save if you want to play around with console commands.
The best console commands in Starfield
There are a million different console commands in Starfield, most of which are pretty much useless. However, a few of them are absolutely essential and can pick up where the game drops out. To open the command console, press the tilde key (~). A warning about achievements will follow this. Once you have cleared this, type in the following commands and press enter.
If you are looking for any item ID, weapon or mod ID, or even faction ID, you need to type help into the command console followed by the thing you’re looking for, or even just part of the word. Everything you might be looking for will be listed with its ID.
