"Starfield is a good game"

No. No it isn't. It has worse space exploration than a game from 2016(NMS), worse inventory management than Minecraft, and an unnecessary amount of loading screens that haven't been seen since Borderlands 1.

I hate defering to review scores, but most reviews agree despite some issues it is a pretty good game. Everyone I know who's played it in real life is enjoying it despite the issues. I'm not saying you enjoyed it as you clearly didn't, but your experience clearly isn't universal.

I gave it about 55 minutes before I realized I wasn't having fun, and had no desire to continue hoping it would get better(Then I hopped on the real GOTY, Battlebit Remastered). I also went in blind and had no expectations other than "fallout set in space".

I also hate referring to review scores but if we're going off of that metric then my Friend Pepa Pig is truly a great work of art, right next to God of War.

If you believe you can form an informed opinion after only 55 minutes of playing, then you are flat out wrong.

You haven't even seen half the mechanics available, let alone explored the many different factions and scifi genres the game has to offer.

You opinion is about as valuable as a random cow's opinion about the British Royal Family.

I'll write a thesis and put in hundreds of hours next time I decide to try and play a bad game just to appease some random internet people, sure.

I didn't enjoy the gun fights, the space fights, the fast traveling, or any of the characters so why would I continue to play something I find unenjoyable and bland.

I'm not going to spend my limited gaming time hoping something gets better just so I can shitpost on the internet.

Why did you buy it? That's like, the entire game.

[–] AZERTY@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago

I didn't buy it, I have a couple months left on my Game pass Ult sub so it was "free". I also like those themes but didn't enjoy the implementation in this game.
