That was my impression trying it this year
- GaggiX 3y agoWell if you think that the universe is dull then I suggest Starfield (I'm joking).
- dottjt 3y agoAlthough Starfield has more issues than one could possibly describe, it's the most fun I've had with a game this year. The gameplay loop is fun and the combat is incredible.
- ajross 3y agoThat's my sense too. Starfield is clearly the worst of the Bethesda RPGs. But it's the first Bethesda RPG in 8 years, and nothing else scratches that itch. I loved it. Hopefully DLCs clean up the Outpost-building subgame, which is a mess.
- dottjt 3y agoThe thing that was a huge let down was the fact that 95% of planets were just barren and procedural generated with the same outposts and the same layouts. It provided no incentive to explore, because there simply wasn't anything unique out there.
- protocolture 3y agoYeah I love it. My starfield experience has been great. The metagame with newgame+ doesnt interest me at all however. It seems like crafting has gone downhill in terms of UX since Fallout4, but that would be easy for them to fix.
- dottjt 3y agoThe fact that you can't scrap items like you could in Fallout 4 makes no sense to me. It just makes so many items useless.
- huytersd 3y agoStarfield is fun but it has no gravitas because they’ve taken anything with edge out of it (sex, nudity, drugs/junkies, extreme violence etc.) it feels like one of those bleh G rated Disney “horror” movies.
- GaggiX 3y agoDoes sex, nudity, drugs/junkies, extreme violence make a game better? Anyway I think there are more fundamental problems with the game.
- huytersd 3y agoI think so, especially when you’re trying to represent a sizable part of the known universe. It also severely restricts the stories you can tell.
- wkat4242 3y agoAbsolutely, it's more realistic. Unless you like playing hello kitty :)
- GaggiX 3y agoYeah no, I think I can easily play a game without.
- wkat4242 3y agoCompare the videos linked elsewhere in this thread, the CP scenes are just so much richer. The starfield ones feel really fake imo.
- GaggiX 3y agoI'm speaking more in general, not as a comparison between cyberpunk 2077 and starfield, there are plenty of games that do not have dark themes, and I don't think that any of that is required to make a good game.
