Cool, hopefully it gets better over time and Bethesda takes the criticism to heart on whatever project they make next.

Starfield is a fun enough game but it could have been a lot better and a lot less tedious to navigate both in menus and in space.

Unlikely. Bethesda has carved out a slot for itself as one of the most popular and profitable devs. Starfield sold extremely well, even though the reviews and hype have seemingly crashed down back to earth now. My point being they can get away with mediocrity, unfortunately

Nah it’s still good for them to fix it. For a company like Bethesda, sales for your latest game are more of a reflection of the quality your last big game than the current one.

If Starfield still just ended up being okay, it will come back to bite them later on.

If they fix up the game and it ends up being closer to the game people imagined later then yea, it’ll be great.
