Of the many paths players can take which deviate from the main storyline of Starfield, the Crimson Fleet/SysDef quest chain might rank among the most enthralling. Plunging players into deep cover to dismantle a criminal network of pirates from within, the twists and turns along the way harken to the greatest cliches of modern undercover crime dramas like Fast and the Furious. Starfield has its fair share of hard choices players must face throughout its narrative, navigating their character's moral alignment and chosen allegiance, and never is that more deftly displayed than choosing whether to side with your SysDef handler and the forces of justice, or the rag-tag plunder-obsessed pirates of the Crimson Fleet.
