Yeah I was one of those idiots. Played 20h the first week or two. Tried playing twice since and it's just too boring. Don't have any interest in every playing it again. There's just too many really good games out there to spend a lot of time playing something mediocre
I was one of those people, but not an idiot. Played 200 hours in the first 3 weeks.
Havent played for a while, but thats fine because its a video game and I can just boot it up any time I want. Im already starting to get the itch to play it again.
Each to their own. Doesn't mean its a mediocre game, just that you don't like it. Lol.
When games from over 10 years ago do what you do but they do it better, yes your game is a mediocre game. I'd argue Starfield isn't actually mediocre, it's just trash. Glad you liked it though!
Your sarcasm is just indicative that you are butthurt people don't like Starfield. Your low standards are just that -- yours.
Space combat in this game is literally "shoot with lasers, shoot with gun/missile". You can do cool maneuvers with your thrusters but there is no point because the fucking enemies aim for your center of mass so you can literally build a donut ship and cheese it (which the developers themselves have been shown doing in screenshots). It's badly designed combat and that's not even an opinion it's a fact. Any time you can trick the AI into missing you 100% of the time you have bad design.
The ship builder you praised is a cool feature but is one of the most complained about functions because the UI was made by a third grader.
When GTA 3 (released in 2001) has more responsive crowds and world building than Starfield it's pretty obvious they phoned the shit in.
None of your desperate points do anything to deflect the fact that ship building is definitely not something you can do in Skyrim or Fallout.
Like many other things in Starfield that you try and hyperbole through.
You don't like it, fine. Stop talking shit though.
I mean, who would actually make a donut ship just to cheese a single player RPG. Literally the most pointless thing I could think of doing.
If someone gets actual enjoyment from a video game by not actually playing it, then great for them.
You sound like you might be in that category, people who think the game developers are responsible for managing the player's mentality and maturity as well as game experience.
I never said there was a ship builder in Skyrim, you did. Then you got mad about it. I said old games did things better than Starfield which is a fact. Cry about it more 🤷♀️
You’re certainly entitled to your opinion but how you can think this game is “great” is honestly flabbergasting to me.
Although on another note, if you have time I’d love to see all the cool discoveries you made traveling to unexplored planets (the ones that aren’t ridden with the same human constructed POIs). Surely your explorers guild has something for tracking and showing that right?
I feel like that's what people wanted, a modern updated Skyrim in space but all we got was 2011 Skyrim in space. The creation engine is the culprit, it's aged very poorly, and what's worse is they're using that same engine for Elder Scrolls 6.
But if we compare it to game like outer worlds which does use a "modern engine" of Unreal 4, does it really feel that different?
My point is that the engine may not be the issue.
I like the game but, I think not having that connectivity between the world, your ship and space is a letdown. Too much moving around with loading screens unlike how say no man's sky handles it was kind of disappointing. Apples and oranges but that is a feature that would have been cool.
