It needs more content. It’s simple. It’s in space, show us aliens. Sci fi experiments and goop. Picture fallout but in space. Bring us that. Game is too tame, just fighting humans in space is boring.

I was expecting at least some element of sci-fi and/or cosmic horror and besides that 1 Vanguard mission there just... hasn't been any. Terramorphs are basically the only legitimately dangerous alien and you can very easily evade them with a jetpack lol

That was my main disappointment. I took the week off work mainly to binge Starfield. I anticipated an RPG spread across the universe with gradually more spectacular, unusual and downright scary phenomena and aliens the further out you went. That just doesn't exist, at all. Played 30 hours on 2 different characters and spent the rest of my holiday days doing something else. Haven't picked it up since.

It's like Bethesda lost their core identity at some point whilst making Starfield. I have faith in them tbh, maybe foolishly, but I think they can salvage it. I just hope they don't leave it all to community mods

The guy below replying about playing the main story instantly blocked me after commenting so I couldn't reply. What a nutter

You should really play the main quest before talking all that shit.

Why do you block people who slightly disagree with you
