Considering all the updates, fixes, changes and improvements that have been done to Fallout 76 (and are still coming), I would think Starfield is a top priority as a new IP at Bethesda and will remain a main focus for many years to come.
It's not been perfect, but so far, they've been listening to the community and fixing things and making improvements. FO76 humbled them as a company, and they are better off for it. They might not do things at a pace some would want or expect, but they are getting it done.
It took 18 months for them to release Wastelanders and there hasn't been a single bit of story added since the 2021 brotherhood of steel stuff. Don't hold your breath for Starfield.
They ain’t doing shit. They sent gonna give players shit either.
The only reason this has somehow leaked to the public is for public perception because of all the negative reviews and general public opinion on it.
76 didn’t humble anything. They still released a dead ass empty husk of a sci-fi that missed the mark of GOTY by miles. They’ve lost the plot bruh. They used to put out bangers and now they’re beating a dead ass horse holding onto the same market that bought Skyrim 10 different times.
Yeah. I really don't get why people want to pretend it's a bad game.
It's not as good of a game as I hoped for, and is probably the weakest of their games in this formula (elder scrolls and fallouts), but its still better than the vast majority of games that have come out this year, and I say that knowing how stacked the year has been with GotY contenders -of which I agree that Starfield is not one... though I think in a less stacked year it might have been, warts and all.
It's not bad but it's not great. For sure a 6/10 game if not a 5/10. It takes steps forward and takes step backwards as all bethesday games do as of late
I know we had a lot of 9s and 10s in the last few months, but are we really suggesting that Starfield is just barely this side of worth playing?
Cause 5 is still the middle ground, right? Anything less than 5 is worse than playing no game at all. So 6 is just barely better than that. I feel like we have a good year of stellar releases and everybody gets spoiled and forgets what a 7.5 looks like. And that's what (I think) this is. Smack between "good enough" and "as good as it gets".
Games for sure not a 7.5 when compared to previous bethesday games. Gun play is solid and was fun so it gets good points there. The zero gravity physics was fun and I do like the style and over all design of the game.
The randomly generated content isn't that great honestly, they traded crafted scope for random less meanful locations. Then the temples to gain the powers are basicly the dragon shout system again (not that it's a bad thing) but the temples are all so boring and arnt that much of a challenge.
Compared to skyrim where every one has memorial dungeons of word walls where as starfeild are all forgettable.
Then there's the factions that in my opinion are mostly boring bar the end of free star and the UAC was fun with the terramorphs.
The main story was okay I feel. I liked the concept but after running a bunch of new game pluses a lot of the new gane content which was fun, I feel like wasn't excacuted in a better way.
I dont know I just feel like new bethesday games loose depth of the previous games too stream line things in a worng direction. Then the loading screens dear god the loading screens.
I'm fine with people liking it but for me it's not as fun as some of their older games and doesn't feel as alive as them. Defos a huge hit in alien anime diversity I can think of like max three creatures.
That's ne not even comparing it to other games this year just bethesdays older games. If I was too compare it to other titles it be an argument of bethesday needs to try and make real change in how they do things.
Yeah, but its not compared to other Bethesda games, right? It's compared to all games. When you only compare it to other games that are typically 8.5+, yeah, it looks pretty bad. But you have to also compare it to the new King Kong and Walking Dead alongside those gems.
It's most common complaint is being repetitive after your first playthrough/30+ hours... but that's true of most games, isn't it?
Still top other bethesday games it's a more fun fleshed out experience id say oblivion and morrowind have significantly better world building, faction design, player choice.
If I compare starfeild too the dog shit games that the studio who did Kong, golem, and the walking dead game then there all a solid 1. Starfeild 6/10
Them if I wana go higher baldurs gate 3 10/10. The issue is that there isn't a universal standard for what's a 1 and what's a 10 it's just what most can agree on.
I would just say that I'd describe starfeild as an average game with great moments but that be it.
I mean FO76 is a live service game so there's more incentive to bring constant updates.
Besides DLC's I'm not sure if we are gonna see much change with Starfield

Constellation is in good hands.
