Enemy AI is god awful still. Also improving on graphics is not much of a accomplishment. Gunplay is fine but not great
Also the story, the one redeeming element of bethesda games is terrible. Besides there's not a lot of freedom anymore, it's a sandbox without the appealing elements. Let me just load my way from one planet to the next without ever wanting to discover anything.
It is markedly superior to previous Bethesda games.
Also improving on graphics is not much of a accomplishment.
That's moving the goalposts. So Starfield has made no positive progress compared to past games, except where it did? Sounds like bullshit.
Gunplay is fine but not great
It feels great to me, best I ever saw in a RPG since Cyberpunk. Gunplay is better than Fallout 4 and that's the point.
the story, the one redeeming element of bethesda games
Man this anti-Starfield circlejerk is so annoying. Are you fucking kidding me? Bethesda games, redeemed by their story? Why are folk inventing stuff is beyond me.
The ONLY Bethesda game with a passable story was Morrowind. Arena, Daggerfall, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Skyrim, Fallout 4, each and every one of those have the most cliche-ridden stories one could think of. Starfield improved a lot on the quality of side quests writing-wise, some are superb, but mostly follows the safe playbook.
"I cried after that one quest in Skyrim", said no one ever.
Bethesda games became icons due to their unique commitment to sandbox freedom + moddability.
