Starfield:Factions

Starfield is full of diverse and varied factions. Some of these factions are joinable in-game, while others exist to enrich the lore and setting. Almost every NPC and creature belongs to one or more factions. These faction memberships control various things, such as the combat reaction of all NPCs and creatures, both towards you and towards one another.
