Starfield is a bigger better game than Fallout New Vegas. Just because it’s not your favorite game, doesn’t mean those of us who grew up playing BGS games and loving them can’t appreciate what this game is and what it will eventually be with mods.

I think you want to argue there are better games but that’s dumb it’s just your opinion.

“What it will be”

Good games don’t have people going “God, wait until random volunteers get to work at it!”

I hate to say it, but all games these days seem to get saved by huge content patches. It’s the norm now.

One way to look at it is “the game is unfinished! Rage! No one should be allowed to play until it until I think it’s a finished product!!”

Another way is to play it in its vanilla form and then see what kinds of amazing things get implemented down the road as the devs (or in this games case the modders as well) really get into it.

Take cyberpunk for example. I heard it was rough on launch so I skipped it. Once 1.5 released I took a flyer on it (half off) and it was amazing. Guy I worked with did the same thing but at 2.0. He probably had it even better tbh.

We could both have bought it on launch and been enraged, but doing so would just be us saying we don’t want anyone else to play until it’s up to our standards.

How is that fair? People can play whenever they want. Just because you can’t wait doesn’t mean someone else should have to.

They don't, no.

Games have gameplay redesigns or bug fixes, sure, but replacing the bad content? That isn't it.

Cyberpunk on launch was an amazing world, amazing story, amazing characters, but buggy and dull gameplay.

Starfield was... well, not much.

Definitely your opinion. I disagree.
