I couldn’t stay interested for 12 hours. I wanted to like this game. I gave it an honest chance. Just didn’t like it.

Edit: spelling

I only made it 4. I really like Skyrim and wanted to like Starfield. I know I didn't give it much of a chance, but I also know I would have spent the majority of the game annoyed. Do you ever play a game and start making a list in your head of everything you hate about it? I found myself doing that really early on and did not want another 50 hours of that.

Yes but I also do that for games I love. I make an effort to also make a list of the things I'm enjoying too, so that I don't talk myself out of enjoying it.

That is such a great way to approach things. I plan on giving Starfield another go at some point down the line. I'll try to reframe my thought process.
