Sorry, I'm STILL enjoying this game; I'm now lvl 117 and STILL haven't done ANY of the Main Quest; I've simply enjoyed the experience of discovering, playing, learning... just ENJOYING the experience... Honestly, a good part of the so-called 'hate' is just Playstation fans' 'proxy battle' with Microsoft for MS having been smart enough to buy Bethesda's parent company Zenimax before Sony could buy Bethesda... Starfield has so many different experiences, and is just a plain beautiful game... If you think about it, Bethesda easily could have created a complete game just on a single planet, they are so huge... The fact that there are actually almost 1,700 planets, etc give us endless options and opportunities for expansion and discovery... I think people are so used to 'instant gratification' and 'impress me' right away, that they view as a negative experience having to at times WORK, STUDY and LEARN in order to advance an aspect of a game; a perfect example: Shipbuilding - I absolutely hated it and it's implementation, until I literally decided one day that I was going to sit down, see youtube videos and force myself to learn it... now I absolutely LOVE shipbuilding and have a collection of ships from 'endgame fighters' to an awesome Razorleaf rebuilt that looks like the Batwing, to a massive Outpost Creation/freighter that holds 30,000!! Just did the UC/Crimson Fleet storyline and am so happy that (spoilers!) the Crimson Fleet survives/can survive even if you take Delgado and The Key down (the conversation with Delgado in the brig is eye-opening)... There are so MANY twists and surprises (and emotional gut-punches) if you just explore and discover... As it was so aptly put, 'The more you put into Starfield, the more it gives you back'... Thanks for the video... CAN'T WAIT to see the Va'Ruun backstory in the future DLC (also, MORE CRIMSON FLEET PLEASE!)

Just the planning and execution of sophisticated Outposts, Inter-stellar Cargo Links, the assignment of crew and then planning out the defenses of your Outposts is a game within itself!

I love playing this huge, fun detailed, game. I think it looks gorgeous and the “empty” worlds are hugely atmospheric. I think you are right about people’s needs and expectations and it’s not so much a lack of imagination but I think these folks do not use their imagination at all but rather they engage with the game purely on face value. I hope you can be bothered reading this but I understand if you don’t, it’s super long. I believe what you’re highlighting goes hand-in-hand with a theory I have about the negativity that I really believe in. If Todd and Pete stopped 100% being old-school 80s style salesmen and always giving those awkward time-share style presentations where they gently infer that their next game is the best the world has seen and if instead? If instead they proudly 100% presented their games honestly including all the foibles like perfectly describing instancing, there would be no platform for at least 80% of the post release hate they get. Because while you and I might maintain realistic expectations, thousands of people seem to completely believe their hype every time and every time they’re shocked and every time they feel that they were misled. Bethesda need to recognise this and they need to be 100% proud of their games 100% realistically. Todd and Pete are salesman and they just can’t help prevaricating and insinuating that their product is The Greatest and their sales method needs to go. I love the game and I would have loved it no matter how it was presented but a combination of the expectations and needs and limited imaginations you’ve described combined with these customers always expecting to that the game will match the hype endlessly bamboozles thousands of consumers all the time. A lot of people don’t role play anymore, they play the game simply for the mechanism it is and do not involve their imaginations and these folks would have nothing to say if the game was promoted 100% honestly. But brother, I love the game too. It’s crazy! So huge and beautiful and insane! Like being inside a stage play with a giant budget🤓

I agree. I’ve been saying this for a while now. It isn’t the games that suck, it’s todays gamers.

Glad to find a fellow Starfield fan. The role play was super enjoyable and I also loved your rant 😂 the title of this vid cracked me up!! Ill be back for more episodes for sure 👍🏾

I am running 3 different characters. My first charachter is lvl 140 and I have over 40 days worth of play and have gone thru ng+ 6. Basically I'm hooked and love this game. I'm sad that there are so many haters. Continue on. Great job.

@hectorm.a4868 I was trying to say that you were making a false equivalence. The issue with Starfield isn't that its systems are too complex and require time and skill to learn how to play it. The issue is that the game feels like a walking simulator with inventory management and heavy amounts of fake dialogue options. Those things aren't universally considered fun.

What I wanted and expected was another huge open world BGS-style sandbox experience. And that's what I got. For sure, their games don't feel as modern in certain aspect or look as pretty, but man the insane amount of content and gameplay systems in 1 package make up for that. They are unique, almost a genre of its own. That's not to say Starfield isn't without flaws or that no one can be disappointed with it for solid reasons, but I'm satisfied.. and honestly that is the only thing that matters to me.

Subscribed.. I play at least 2 hours of Starfield per day everyday. It is my favorite game by far right now. Looking forward to a new playthrough to watch.

My imagination is fine thank you. My biggest problem with Starfield is, for a game about exploration and discovery we only do 1 ground breaking discovery in the game and that is the Unity. everything else is already discovered and already catalogued in the universe, all the star systems are on the map, there is no cosmic hazards like nebulae or black holes, no uncharted planets, hell discovering the planetary perks literally means nothing, even all the life forms on all the planets are technically already discovered before we touch down since 99% of the planets have been colonized or have/had an outpost on them. So yeah main selling plot of the game kinda sucks, because i dont consider finding the exact same research lab, with the exact same layout, with the exact same "unique" notes, emails, and audio logs on 500 different planets to be a lack of my imagination. The rest of the game is just standard post Skyrim Bethesda design you either like it or you dont. Personally i like it more than i hate it but not by a large margin.

People forget, none of the BG3 characters would ever be allowed in space because of the diseases. We only recently found out that cancer loves to multiply in zero g on the international space station. 16:22 great point about the pussy footing wannabe bug eyed pirates & space scoundrels.

There was player who bashed on Morrowind when it first came out and yes there was players who bashed Oblivion because the wanted Morrowind with new graphics and new skill styles with the spells of Morrowind with new window dressing. I also enjoy this game and I am on my third character. over 500 hours in the game. I am still enjoying it. I agree great job. 🍺

I have played all the big space sims a fair bit and I think Starfield is pretty good to be fair. It’s biggest strength compared to others I think is it’s flow your always doing something. I see a lot moan about Space travel but then if you look at Elite Dangerous who has all that you get awful lot of people moaning they get bored travelling, so I think it is good to have those differences between the space games as if got busy life and only a hour or two spare Starfield would be the one I’d suggest to you of all of them.

Let me recommend the 'Fast Travel to Unknown' mod. It allows you to do planetary exploration and surveys much faster and minimizes just running around.

A couple of months after I put skyrim down I wanted to go back. Same with fallout. I do not feel the same about Starfield, and I know I’m not the only one who feels that way. The hype they put into this game- “this is the game I’ve wanted to make since I was young”, the best description I can use for this game is “UNDERWHELMING”. It’s actually kind of ironic also, because a game w this scope has zero business being underwhelming. Another sad thing about this game is I don’t see any effort from the devs coming out to give us a long term roadmap, stating “we’ll add vehicles by x date”, or any other equality of life features that would make the game enjoyable. There are sooo many little things holding this game back, it’s not just 1 thing. It’s the 30 little things that together make up the most underwhelming Bethesda experience to date. Pretty damn frustrating as a major Bethesda fan, they have definitely lost good will with a large portion of their fan base.

I envy you are able to get some form of enjoyment from this game.

I was a level 267 before I started all over. Now on a new game I’m rediscovering why I love this game. Just needs a legendary weapon boost. The second update killed the loot. It makes ng+ harder to get set up.

Admittedly, I am using some quality of life and reshading mods while I play Starfield...because I always mod moddable games. But I really enjoy Starfield so far. Bethesda RPGs have something special, a kind of personality and a charm, that has me playing them more than games that are clearly more sophisticated in terms of graphics, gameplay, or technology. Once Bethesda finally releases official mod support, it's going to be a gamechanger. I can't wait.

But I kept wanting to come back and I realized that there was something about the game that wasn't registering for me.

Hey I completely get it, I’ve slept on great games just because of the initial reviews. Glad you’re giving it a try! I’m honored my video is one of the videos that can reignite your interest! Thank you so much for watching and leaving a thoughtful comment 🙏 Check out my Starfield Tribute playlist if you’re looking for something else that “shows off” the Starfield experience.

What I expected: Skyrim in space - What I got: Skyrim in space. F--- the haters, I'm having fun in this game, and I love it. Many hand crafted quests (the Faction quests especially well done), ship/character customization, great visuals (even on low settings). I like the arcadey ship combat and the first/third person shooter aspects.

I also enjoy this game, almost 400 hours in I beat the game and am looking at end game stuff to do. I think people hating should just move on and just not play it if they don't like it. I think at launch there was already a build up of negativity some people were creating, some warranted but not all of it. I think the game is really good. But I do wish some things were better (or just more intuitive). Somethings that are more endgame and have been better in some of their other games that I find surprising they didn't just bring into this game. I like that Starfield is its own thing, but some things like camp building, resource management and crafting which is great in Fallout and Fallout 76, are not as good in Starfield, in my opinion. We've also already had mounts so why not have a vehicle at launch. If they are able to do it all of a sudden, I think it should have been there at release. Overall, however, I like the game and I see a lot of potential in it. Both in future updates, DLC and community mods. I believe Starfield will have a long lifespan.

People were hating on the game before it released. How can a game be rated mostly negative when the vast majority of the player bass has seen only the reveal trailer? The most egregious problems with the game weren't discoverable until NG+.

My main disappointment with starfield is the base building, theres such a small amount of variety in buildings compared to fallout and its hard to let your imagination run free. That was the main thing i enjoyed about FO4 and 76. The ship building is okay, the gun modding is meh and most guns feel like nerf guns, and i half expect to see orange darts poking out of some. I thought they would have learned after giving us the war crime that is pipe weapons. Bethesda has been shooting themselves with the amount of projects theyve been having active at once, theyre clearly being overworked in some areas and i think Starfield has quite obviously been neglected because of it.

And there’s a lot more competition now with rpgs like cyberpunk and bg3 who do things a lot better than starfield. Bethesda needed a game like this to smack them in the face to realize (hopefully) that maybe we need to update our formula for our next games.

I love skyrim and fallout 4 but I would find it hard to now play them without mods. Mods change especially skyrim so much it is like a different game(PC). I believe in time the same will happen with Starfield where mod creators can literally create entire settlements, ships, quest, NPC's and so much more. It is modders that make bethesda games so amazing! If you haven't played Skyrim with 2-3k mods on a good PC you are missing out. I would recommend LoreRim and Nolvus absolutely incredible modlist and experience's.

Dude, Starfield is baller. The more I play it, the less I understand the hate. Last night, I spent a while in New Homestead on Titan, moon of Saturn. I learned about its composition, resources, how humans might gather them, and lore in the setting. Still had time to go to Mars, take out a group of evil space mercs to rescue a scientist who will help in defeating big xenowarfare monsters. 340 hours in, still not bored. I'll be mean to the haters, too. People have complained about not being able to land on a gas giant, and that there aren't radio shows across 50 lightyears of space, and that's before they go to a barren moon for no reason and run in a straight line in a lame attempt to show how boring it is. Oh - and lying to their viewers about game engine features for attention and clicks. I think the main problem is not Starfield, it's the audience's reading level.

Actually started a new playthrough to experiance with the sliders... Have 2 prior games, lvl 105 & 77ish... Playing organic, (survey every planet landed on, stop at a random location every landing...) which has led to level 25, class C Ship homemade from Ecliptic claas A taken early, low ammo, low weapons, more survivalist... Amazing made Really Amazing! Love the settings feeling crazy good. As an old guy, my imagination drives the exploration. Only missing some interactive stuff I would like to see... letting npc's fly the ship so I can hit the workbenches, see the landing out a porthole.Get a red alert & run to the cockpit as ships move in... have others sit in bridge seats... Actual chatter...

Hello,i enjoyed watching your video and your comments.I must say that i complettely agree with you about Starfield. It is probably one of the best if not the best game Bethesda ever made.Granted it is not perfect but as far as it concerns me i enjoy the game very much and i am at the 6th playthrough. (arround 1100 hours).Every time, i take my time and i do something different,and there is always something fun to do and explore. That is only my humble and personal opinion on the game.Congrats on the video.

Their are 3 types of starfield haters with some sub groups. 1:ponies. Ponies hate starfield, out of jealousy and that it's an xbox exclusive. 2: closeted ponies(pc players) closeted poines, are mostly where all the negative steam reviews come from. 3: cybertrash fanboys. The CTF's hate starfield because they are also jealous and are still mad that cybertrash is known as the biggest failure of this decade!

Bro I like it.. a pause now but it was just like Skyrim got a bit tired of the game loop after main mission but still go back and use 20-30 hours once in a while(150+ hours )

It's good to see more Starfield positivity! :) I enjoy the game too.

I tend to agree with you guy! I see a lot of hate but for me personaly I played Starfied for 3 straight months after release. I must admit it is time for new content. The one thing that has me frustrated is that I can't finish the matters of the heart quest. Something is preventing me from finding the Dumas ship so I am stuck with Sam Coe as a follower! I built a couple awesome ships and I don't want to go to new game plus for the 2nd time and lose the ships that took me a long time to build...

I didn't want to lose my ships so i kept a save at massada iii just before i grav jumped to the unity. Once i settled on a universe i liked, i could revisit that old save to view them & rebuild the ones i cared about in ng+. I'd say every single one received significant improvements!

I enjoy Starfield and I think it will just keep getting better over time with DLC. You just can't play this game like Skyrim and Fallout. It has to be played with a slower pace. Its really not about the grind like other titles. One of the biggest problems I have with the game right now are some of the members of constellation are just downright boring. Second biggest problem is the economy seems a little skewed and selling items can become time consuming instead of being seamless - we need more fun options to spend credits instead of ship building. Third and last problem is having to do all the temple mini-games all over again during NG+. It should be that if a temple power has been obtained you can just open the door to the temple and the cinematic begins. I have tons of hours in this game and really learned to appreciate it for what it is. Like I said before, it'll only get better from here with added DLC. Great video, thanks for your input!

There's nothing wrong with subjectively liking a game that is objectively a step, or many steps really, back from previous Bethesda titles. I have games on Steam with hundreds of hours of playtime that were not highly received or had poor launches and I have really enjoyed them. However, I don't pretend that because I subjectively enjoy them that they are objectively good or quality games. Nor do I feel the need to convince other people that the game I enjoy that is objectively bad is objectively good. That being said I hope you continue to enjoy your experience.

I actually really enjoy this game too, it is definitely very different from previous bgs games but I have gotten bored after 300+ hours

I still play Fallout 4 and love it! If you find your own game cocaine then stick with it and ignore other peoples negative opinions. We all have a game that we love but everyone else seems to hate on.👍

I, too, love this game. The others are bitching just to bitch. I ignore them. They aren't worth listening to. Your attitude is a breath of fresh air. Thanks.

Keep up the good work. I like this game very much. Been playing it since preorder.

The game has a great foundation for modding, but I coulda sworn they said they would be releasing the creation Kit for Starfield within a few months of release (by Jan?) and yet we're in May now and Starfield has barely any modding community left, cause they didn't release the creation kit. Once that's out, there will be a boom in interest and in modding. I'm hoping its out with the first DLC. If you're interested, check out the modded Starfield vids on my channel.

Starfield has great ideas but it would have been better if they had been implemented better. This is not hate, this is say that it deserves better to reach its true potential. I am waiting on mod support and I have 500 hours in. The UC Vanguard alone can be a game in and of itself.

Starfield is a great but brutally flawed game. With a legendary studio like Bethesda behind it and 8 years of development, it should have been a masterpiece.

You're right about there being a lack of (positive!) Starfield content. Not that it's not out there because it absolutely is! It's just buried in an avalanche of complaining. Which is fine to be fair to them, everyone is entitled to their opinion! But man, i fell in love with this game the first time i built a ship that looked cool & unique, but also like it'd really exist in this universe. Had a great interior layout, flies nicely etc. From there i started to get starfield more & more. Eventually i even figured out outpost building!!! A really good game destined for greatness once the CK2 arrives. People who don't see the potential are BLIND.

Hey, I'm the first guy who can enjoy these kinds of games, I love starfield. But even I can say compared to some stuff that's been coming out, Starfield really can't compete.

I agree man, I think it feels exactly like a Bethesda game. I enjoy it quite a bit.

"Your imagination sucks" It isn't fucking DND, mate. DND doesn't have anything if you're playing it barebones. It gets really good when you have a Dungeon master who can really set the scene and really capture your imagination. If Starfield was a Dungeon master then it'd be passed out in its own shite. But Imagine a VIDEO game is so bland that you have to use your imagination to make it interesting...

Sure, there are things I don't like about the game. They absolutely need more POIs for the different outposts. If they had 10 different Cryolabs and 10 different Helium mines, that would be awesome. I don't like the Ryujin mission. But I absolutely look forward to playing Starfield each and every day.

I am at 760 hours and on my second playthrough (to pick the traits I learned I liked on my first pt). First playthrough I did all the missions, this playthrough I am building my character through other means like exploring. This newer character is also way tougher than the first one mainly because I know what skills to train now. I've found SF to be a lot more challenging than a lot of other games, which may chase away a lot of other players. I liken the haters to someone who hates pickles so they boycott McD's. A lot of the complaints I've heard are actually things I like about SF, go figure.

Starfield was fine, solid 7/10. I'm glad people love it, but I'll never understand why. I have 2500+ hours in NMS since Day1, I actually have 800 hours in SF (built a lot of glitch ships). Is it beautiful? Sort of... How many of those beautiful screenshots have either: A) A Shining Sun, or B) A Ringed Planet... Have you modded Skyrim? I'm not being negative, I just wish, we as longtime fans held Bethesda to a higher standard. Would people feel the same way if EA or UbiSoft had made this? I wasn't disappointed, I'm a Day1 NMS, Anthem, FU'76 player. I liked all of them. I will forever remember the first time I heard; "Wake up, we're here. Why are you shaking?" I hope in time, Bethesda puts in the work to make SF worth loving. Hello Games are heroes. PS: The Moon was so boring, Michael Collins couldn't even be bothered to set foot on it.

Hey man, thank you for your comment, honest and true…I have no problem with people speaking negatively about Starfield…your completely right! I appreciate the honest feedback rather than just spouting off hate and going about your day…thank you for the comment

Anyone who loves Starfield should play No Man Sky. Starfield's not bad but it's not a Bethesda game in spirit and I can't help but find Starsector and No Man's Sky/any x4 game just trumps this...

space engineers claps its cheeks with that reasoning then.....

Good for you that you love Starfield with its many loading screens 😂 But New Vegas was not made by the same company. Just laying that fact out there. But given that mods can fix & add fun… I figure after 5-10 years from now I mite buy & give Starfield a try. But not for the full prise😁

lol True and fair! Thanks for the comment!

No HUD lifestyle FTW!

Most people would disagree with you, myself included. I put 50 hours into the game before realising I was trying too hard to have fun. But I’m happy to see at least someone having fun with it. Bethesda didn’t completely waste their efforts :P

I finally found someone that actually loves this game, I honestly love this game to death. As someone who gets hella into the role playing side of the game and voice acts for all my characters and their different personalities it’s an ass load of fun. My pirate character is up there with one of my favorite play throughs in a Bethesda game of all time and I love that for once it is actually rewarding to play “the bad guys” so to speak. If I had one gripe it would probably be that there aren’t enough in depth followers at the moment but I wouldn’t be surprised if modders came through and made a load of them. All in all, Bethesda through and through 10/10. Already around 700 hours or so between 4 saves lol

Also, like you were saying about playing the pirate. The biggest draw for me is running my character like it’s One Piece lol, my goal is to have the highest bounty possible in the settled systems and my “missions” I set for my character are things like taking on the entire UC fleet above Jemison/ New Atlantis. It’s a blast seeing how far I can take a non overpowered ship and watching that bounty rise. Currently sitting at around 4.5 million in the UC. Like you said, the “good guys” take the place of the pirates. So rather than being attacked by the crimson fleet in certain places, the UC navy jumps in and attacks me instead.

I really enjoy this game, play it daily, and have played over 1000 hours since launch. I could point to 100 areas for imrovements, but they do not take away my enjoyment for the game at all. No game is perfect, but many games are good. I consider this a good game.

Hm... they should have make it clear in their marketing campaign "Player Imagination Not Included"

Other games feed my imagination far better than Starfield does.

I love it, but I have plenty of complaints and I am very curious as to what Bethesda does to make it better. I had another play through of Cyberpunk 2077 going, but I felt the need to give Starfield another go and another approach. And then Final Fantasy Rebirth came out and I gave that a try for awhile before going back to Starfield. What I need is release date for Shattered Space. If it's later in the year, I think I will set the game aside and continue other games, but if it's this summer, I might just continue playing. I recently started a brand new character to play out my new approach to the game.

It's a loading screen simulator and the exploration sucks

i think im on my fifth or sixth unity and the things i love the most are the ship building and the story...as successful as the fallout show was i dream one day that starfield can get a show as well...just like you said there are so many vocations you can be a part of in the game just on the side...main story you are a interdimensional godlike being...i even set up an aurora drug lab on my spaceship for money in my estimation mass effect skyrim and fallout had a baby and it was starfield there is so much to like but i dont think its perfect i think there are far to many load screens that cause game to crash and many bugs but aside from all that i love it

I love Starfield.. it cures my insomnia!!!

It's good until ng+ honestly. The different universes is a nice touch but the dialogue can get a bit dull. Still a great game

I watched this entire video last night. I need to pick this game back up pronto

🥱😴💤💤

Damn. Man got ratio'd alright. If you're using the addon that shows dislikes, you'll see exactly what I mean there.

Hahaha, dude I love the title!! They do suck. Picky lil bastards, can't appreciate what someone has done to make a game. I love Bethesda titles and the freedom to roam, explore and build however you want😤

Don't compare Fallout 3-4 and this shit of a game.

Ngl I haven't played another game since the drop

Game is good

I am about 200 hours in and i have not gotten past like two missions after getting Andreja. im serious. my group of 20+ does domestic terrorist attacks on big cities and small. permadeath enabled. Roleplaying as the ceo of paradiso, literally oliver campbell. (got rid of real oliver through console) Also took over paradiso and placed unlimited storage crates in my player home areas. my group of 20+ makes money off of looting bodies (100% of loot drops) and harvesting bodies to sell organs to the trade authority. we kill for money directly as a game loop. i manage my followers depleating ammo (expensive) and equipment, keep them from being killed in battle, and pay them a salary. survival mode is enabled (eat, sleep, drink) The idea is to make the settled systems dangerous and drive wealthy people towards paradiso. have an imagination, guys. Im waiting for more traversal options too, but as an old no mans sky player im fine with not being able to fly off of planets (it gets old). for now im cool with modded animation replacements and a modded jetpack. all travel is fun with a whole gang in matching starborn spacesuits. 90% of my poi's are populated with nonrepetitive enemies that have good AI and ammo limits. Stealth is viable (even with a group) Im not rushing through the game because we have plentyyyy of time until es6. Im going to enjoy this while its brand new and offers me surprises. And permadeath for all characters is an awesome concept with the multiverse. you can kill a sidequest essential character and then come back in the unity and do that sidequest you missed. THAT is replay value and adds gravity to death.

For me this is the greatest game Bethesda has made aside from the elder scrolls. They now have a genre for my 2 favorite types sifi and fantasy. I like post apocalyptic but it's not my favorite genre. This game has pulled me away from skyrim and that's something no other game has done since skyrim released in 2011.

I love Fallout and the Elder Scrolls and I’m with you friend this game is now my new favorite genre from Bethesda, thanks for the comment! I couldn’t agree more 🎉

I share so many of your points. Thank you for this video ❤‍🩹 Starfield is the game I waited for since the 1990s. I always wanted an RPG in an open galaxy. Starfield is the first game tat comes even close to my vision. is it perfectß No. But it dethroned Skyrim as my GOAT. I hope for more content through updates, DLCs and mods. Bigger pools of POI, more variazion, better integration into the environment. Food and Drinks on the exterior of a a facility makes no sense on a moon without atmosphere, etc,, more quests, more unique locations

Good on you for enjoying the game your way. Please keep it up.

My imagination is great. I can imagine a much better game and company.

If i imagine hard enough.... oh nope still a shit game.

Not hating on the game, hating on ANY developer that releases games when they know there not ready for release. There is nothing wrong with holding them accountable for releasing the mess it was, there is something wrong with just excepting it as normal. Eight years this game was in development, it should have released almost bug free at the minimum. I like the game, but its more of the same like you pointed out, all Bethesda releases are very buggy. Many have complained they are just stuck in the past, they are not innovating. The way they ignore their community is telling, people are busy. Buying a game that is an unplayable mess, then not patching it for months until well after those people have moved on is unprofessional. Eight years... is an eternity in gaming.

Starfield isn't buggy at all, and it boggles my mind how people take the haters narrative of this game being buggy as a given fact without even having played the game. After 500h all i have encountered so far were minor and infrequent visual bugs.

Nah what's so disappointing about Starfield is how disappointing Starfield is. We waited SO long. TES6 delayed for this random side project, delivered poorly with 0 longevity/wish to start again. I've done 2000+ hours in Skyrim on 30 different characters and playthroughs. It just isn't the same. Bethesda need to get back to TES and what they do best and stop f*cking around

@@sparkcommunications2499Please don’t feel bad, you are fine. Im used to everyone hating Starfield and my thumbnail it’s triggering, I know. See I never was excited for Starfield…didn’t watch anything on it or even the Bethesda Direct. But I’m a crack head for any new Bethesda RPG, so I bought the game and fell in love. I definitely took a couple month break from it like any BGS title and I know that I will probably take another break from it again and again. Hype really let this game and it’s community down.

Starfield is an amazing experience for me. I'm on NG+3 and about 200 hours in. Still discovering new side quests and content. Haven't even done any of the unique universes yet. My favorite thing to do is just walk around and sight see. Take in the atmosphere and go wherever my interests take me. Starfield is definitely one of the top 3 games of all time for me.

I agree with you 100% I also love this game. Glad someone finally is defending starfield.

Nah sorry. Wish I could refund this trash.

You are totally entitled to your opinion, but so are other people.

You can of course just ignore that and tell all those people "no you suck". But it won't make you look good, it will make you come off like a Bethesda shill.

I play Daggerfall a hell of a lot. Too much really lol. I just really love how you can roleplay as the character you make when you start. Special disadvantages (as well as the mods for Unity) really help with the immersion, making me feel like I actually am the character I'm playing.

@@Renblade The original creator of Daggerfall is making a game called The Wayward Realms. The name of the developer is called "Once Lost". They need your support. Crowdfund money and spreading word of mouth will help. More buzz around this game the better we can get all the daggerfall fanbase to hype it up. (Julian Lefey is working on it - he was the guy that recommended to make maps massive so it feels realistic when you traverse the land) Anyway they have a youtube channel. Just type in "Once Lost" and "Wayward Realms" for the preview trailers. I am doing my part typing this out. You should pass on the info as well. More hype encourages them to work harder and faster and put more effort into it. In the meantime we have Daggerfall Unity to play while this is being developed.

It does have flaws and the critics are not wrong about them, but the hate is unwarranted. It may be that all those who got into open world RPG were ones that started at Oblivion. But prior to Oblivion and Morrowind you had Daggerfall which had the same feel of a Starfield with lots of open and empty space in the overworld. They are used to open world maps being cluttered with stuff that is mashed really close together. (like Morrowind onwards) They want "hand crafted content" and what they mean there is no procudeural generation. However for a space game procedural generation is inevitable due to the sheer vastness of space. This is one of the reason people didn't like Starfield since as a space game towns and interesting places have to be spread apart long distances making the overall "world" seem boring and empty. But in reality its the same as other bethesda games but seperated by a lot of empty space. (which is understandable because it's a space rpg) The overall reason to not like it: they are used to smaller maps with all the fun stuff packed into tiny spot. Not a game where the world has the interesting things spread so far.
