Will never understand the level of disappointment in Starfield considering we got a 50 minute video showing everything in the game and how it works and most people seem to be disappointed about things never talked about. I struggle hard to understand being disappointed about something never promised to you. I feel like I enjoyed Starfield alot because I went in knowing exactly how I was going to play based on the info given to me and had no problems because I knew what I was getting into. It seems like everyone paid VERY little attention to detailed news about the game and systems and instead heard “open world space game by Bethesda” and just jumped to “Bethesda is making big budget No Man’s Sky!” A lot of disappointment is self generated.
There are valid criticisms like empty planets and copy paste outposts/ sites on planets…but that’s not nearly as damning as people make it out to be. I have enjoyed exploring planets and finding: invisible demon spiders, mushroom dinosaurs, walking plants, random strong weapons, finding interesting terrains to build outposts on.
The side quests and stories are also great. I really enjoyed the narratives and characters behind the sub factions quest lines and the core crew mates actually have pretty interesting back stories and struggles if you take the time to open them up with dialogue and quests.
