I would hope so. They said they were planning on supporting the game for along time. I still like the game, but I won’t lie, when I found out that every point of interest of the same name is exactly the same, with no procedural changes whatsoever, I lost a lot of interest in it. Just putting a procgen element on the dungeons instead of just the planets would go along way into prolonging replay ability, and make gear farming less boring. No mans sky had like 1/4th of the budget of this, and even that games procgen system randomizes same type POIs alittle so not every manufacturing plant is the same, ect.

Realistically we aren’t getting rid of the loading screens, but starfield could still be a hell of alot better then it is if Bethesda puts in the effort. They should as well, because alot of people went from “preordering elder scrolls day one” to “will wait awhile” because starfield kinda damaged their trust, the same way cyberpunk did for CDPR, just not to the same extent.

Shame. This is supposed to be the console generation of 3-second game launching and seamless gameplay.
