      I love Bethesda games. Fallout is one of my favourite series around. I also loved Mass Effect. I did not like Starfield at all, and I expected to love the shit out of it. Was very disappointed with Starfield.

        I look at starfield and just see a wonky game that doesn’t play to Bethesda’s strengths as exploration and environmental story telling feel completely sidelined in a game about exploring

          One of the worst and most hyped games to exist yet. All my friends lost their shit looking at the trailer watching the Xbox event. Sorely disappointed with that purchase, played for 30 hours just to feel like I got my money’s worth but felt like I was scammed even more. Their engine just isn’t up to date, there are tiny indie developers making better looking games in UE5 than Starfield. So many years in development yet it is still bad.

          I also feel like Bethesda formula of making you feel like the Chosen one was lost in this one, you are just a random person. You also had more immersion even with Skyrim wonky NPCs. Thank god Rockstar and CDProject Red are still being amazing though. Playing Cyberpunk 2.0 and replaying RDR2 really made me feel much better (RDR2 still looks and plays way better btw)

        I tried Fallout for the first time a couple of years ago, with Fallout 4 on Series X. Probably gave it 3-4 hours, just couldn’t get into it.

        Thought maybe it was the setting, or the graphics.

        Was excited to try a new Bethesda title in Starfield. Figured the setting is right up my alley (I loved Destiny and was intrigued by No Mans Sky, Outer Wilds, etc.)

        I feel like I’m forcing myself to play this game, and am enjoying it even less than Fallout. It’s just…boring.

        Maybe it’s me. Maybe these are just not my type of games. I hate it because I really want to like the game(s)/genre, especially since so many others do.
