Starfield might not have any dogs because they've all gone extinct
I don't want to live on this planet anymore

You can't pet the dog in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Starfield, and that mig𝕴ht be because they've all gone extinct by the time of the game.
Twitter account and acclaimed animal-petting cataloguer Can You Pet the Dog notes that despite a cat appearing in a piece of Starfield concept art and several alien creatures inhabiting the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Starfield planets you'll visit⛦, "pets do not appear to be present in the full game."
That doesn't seem to be an oversight from Bethesda, either, as the account notes the flavor text on a piece of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Starfield food that might provide a reason as to why there aren't any dogs in space. 'Chocolate Labs' are an in-game treat that restores a handful of health, and are "shaped like an extinct canine 🌜called a 🐠Labrador Retriever."

Now, that might mean that Labradors have gone extinct while other dogs survive, but answer me this - if dogs were dying out, would humanity let its favorite breed (I checked) die out while others lived on? I doubt it, personally. The🅷 apparent absence of dogs and the disappearance of the Labrador spells doom for man's best friend, as far as I can tell.
As unfortunate as this whole situation is, it does seem to fit with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Starfield's timeline and the fact that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:its version💧 of Earth is a ruined, lifeless husk, covered pole-to-pole by desert. Perhaps as we fled our hom𓂃e planet, there was simply no room for dogs, cats,💧 rabbits, gerbils, parrots, or any other pet. Perhaps humanity was the only thing to survive the desertification of Earth, and there's simply nothing left.
Regardless of the full story, it's a pretty devastating bit of storytelling, and the reaction beneath that tweet is rightfully distraught. "What's even the point?" asks one fan. "I don't want to live in a future without dogs," says another. The popular refrain of "literally unplayable" rings out, as another fan calls on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Starfield mods community to fix this horror. We can only hope.
Our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Starfield review does not mention the lack of dogs. We are sorry.
