    I haven't played such a cold, empty and souless game in a while. Leaving aside the bugs (which as a bethesda game we all know their technical level is sub 0, and this game is no exception) everything feels so cheap and rushed.

    -General gameplay goes from empty interactions, amateur and dull voice acting, terrible NPC's and facial features/expressions that reminds me of oblivion.

    -Completely outdate engine. New gen you said? The game can barely run on high end hardware, and its filled with artifacts, noise and pollution.

    -Maps are empty, repetitive and pale... and obviously no vehicle so you wouldn't realize how empty they are as quick.

    -Whoever the f made the gun play never played a shooter in their life.

    -Loading screens EVERYWHERE.

    -The AI is probably the worst AI i've ever seen, no exageration.

    200+m budget game, i wanna know exactly where that money went because on hiring talented people and investing in resources and technology for sure not. Just to think this is 8 points away from BG3 is ATROCIOUS and a big disrespect to the gaming market, developers and players.    … Expand

    Boring, repetitive, and shallow RPG that prioritizes lots and lots of quantity while sacrificing all quality. Not worth your time at all, if you want a real RPG just go play baldurs gate. They literally took a 10+ year old Skyrim engine and put it in space, and acted like it was the next big thing lmao this game is a massive letdown

Underwhelming Gameplay: The gameplay in Starfield is a    Title: A Disappointing Descent: The Last Bestheda Game Review

    Starfield is a game that promised so much but ultimately falls short in almost every aspect, leaving players with a bitter taste of disappointment. From its lackluster gameplay to its uninspired story, this game feels like a mere shadow of what it could have been.

    Underwhelming Gameplay:
    The gameplay in Starfield is a mixed bag of mechanics borrowed from other, better games. Combat feels clunky and unpolished, with awkward animations and unresponsive controls. The open-world exploration, which is typically a hallmark of Bethesda games, is plagued by numerous bugs and performance issues that hinder immersion.

    Tedious Quests:
    The main story and side quests are riddled with clichés and offer little in the way of originality. Players are often tasked with mundane objectives that lack depth and fail to engage the player's interest. The dialogue options feel meaningless, as choices rarely have any impact on the narrative.

    Technical Nightmares:
    One of the most glaring issues with Starfield is its technical instability. Frequent crashes, game-breaking bugs, and long loading times make for a frustrating gaming experience. It's as if the game was rushed to release without proper optimization and quality control.

    Graphical Stagnation:
    Graphically, Starfield is a far cry from the standards set by other contemporary titles. The character models are bland and lack detail, while the environments lack the breathtaking beauty that players have come to expect from open-world games. The art direction feels uninspired, and the game world lacks the visual diversity that would make exploration worthwhile.

    Empty World:
    Despite being an open-world game, the world of Starfield feels strangely empty. There are vast stretches of land with little to no meaningful content, leaving players with little incentive to explore. The lack of interesting NPCs and settlements further exacerbates the feeling of emptiness.

    In conclusion, Starfield is a game that fails to live up to the expectations set by previous Bethesda titles. It's a perfect example of how a promising concept can be marred by poor execution. With its unimpressive gameplay, technical issues, and lack of innovation, it's difficult to recommend this game to anyone looking for a fulfilling gaming experience. Bethesda must take a hard look at its development practices and prioritize quality over profit if it hopes to win back the trust of its once-loyal fan base.    … Expand

    The game is full of bugs. I encountered at least 10 bugs or so in my first 2 hours game play. NPCs are as bad as they always were in any Bethesda game, and they literally look as bad as in Fallout. Jumping NPCs or porting through walls happening everywhere. Doors which wont open.

    Inventory system is a total MESS and not easy to use.

    loading... loading .... loading ... fast travel ... loading .... fast travel ... loading. No Mans Sky did this so much better years ago.

    This game is a loading and inventory management simulator with terrible outdated graphics, terrible performance, full of bugs, no innovation, no content and just gets super boring super fast.

    Does the game get better while you play? Totally not.

    Is there hope the game becomes better through the mod community? Maybe. But that totally is not a good thing, especially not if you pay $100 for a 2023 AAA title.

    It is basically a Fallout 4 mod in space.

    The NPCs still feel lifeless and robotic, reciting lines with the enthusiasm of a malfunctioning voice assistant. Side quests? Sure, if by "side quests" you mean a never-ending list of repetitive tasks that make you question your life choices. The AI? Still as baffling as ever. Enemies that sometimes just stand there, letting you shoot them point-blank, or allies who become obstacles in narrow hallways.

    Graphics? Well, they're typical Bethesda – sometimes breathtakingly beautiful, but often marred by janky animations and the odd graphical glitch that catapults you into the stratosphere.

    Their crafting system, while expansive, feels tacked on and unnecessarily convoluted, like they're trying to give the illusion of depth where there isn’t any. And let's not forget the lore inconsistencies that would make any long-time fan scratch their head in confusion.

    In conclusion, it's the same old Bethesda experience - vast yet shallow, ambitious yet buggy. One day, I hope they’ll surprise me, but today is not that day.    … Expand

    Starfield is possibly the most disappointing game of this generation. It doesn't know what it wants to be a space sim or an rpg, as a result what you get is a small version of superior titles. Not to mention the horrible facial animations, and empty worlds. The only redeeming factor is you can basically play it for $1 on Gamepass.

Diverting power from Grav to shield to weapon 1-2 etc. sounds great but it's not, it's not pleasant to have to faff about whilst trying to fly.
    -Vast empty spaces of nothing. Most planets are just textures of nothingness.

    In summary, unless you are a die-hard Bethesda fan with low expectations (this goes hand in hand) then I can't see how people are so hyped about this game.... There's a story (which is probably good) but it's locked behind tedious gameplay, UI and travel cutscenes in such a vast world that it's impossible to avoid all the aforementioned.
    Looking beyond the visuals and soundtrack which are admittedly fantastic, and this just feels like a sci-fi fallout in an entire (vast, empty and boring) universe.
    ALL the positive reviews are only focusing on visuals and story, voicelines, vastness etc. instead of looking at all the CORE parts of the game which frankly whilst typical of Bethesda, feel outdated and will do nothing to bring in new fans to the studio or game IMO.

    As a fan of all genres of games and sci-fi (and not a die-hard fan of any studio) I can honestly say I am 100% disappointed in the game and find it tedious and impossible to get into. I've tried twice having uninstalled twice now and will not be attempting again.

What does it mean when you're so used to shipping broken games, you think "less broken"What does it say about a studio when the parent company proudly boasts that its latest software has fewer bugs than said studio's usual output? How much more damning can faint praise get when the discussion of a game’s quality focuses on how it’s less incompetently cobbled together than previous ones? What does it mean when you're so used to shipping broken games, you think "less broken" is an actual brag? Let’s be real, it doesn’t mean much at all when your last game’s level of quality sat at the bedrock below the barrel. To call Starfield the least broken Bethesda game is akin to calling any single TERF the least embarrassing fascist. Then again, given how Zenimax and Bethesda seem to treat trans employees, that comparison may hit too close to home. Starfield’s unintentionally comedic marketing claims might very well be true. It could indeed be, as other reviews have breathlessly proclaimed, “the most polished Bethesda game to date.” That doesn’t mean it’s actually polished, does it? Being the least glitchy game is not the same as being a glitch-free game, and if there’s one thing Starfield ain’t, it’s that. I can of course only speak about my own experience, which has been of a game no more laudable than the digital wreckage that was Fallout 76. Its abundant issues range from the small - enemies getting stuck in doors, NPCs materializing out of thin air, etc. - to the thoroughly horrendous. Really do mean horrendous. I’ve been perpetually stuck on dialog screens, unable to advance a conversation while a character silently gurns at me. I’ve regularly become trapped in my ship’s cockpit, unable to move until I’ve sat back down in my seat and stood up again. Companions have disappeared. Mission-critical enemies have spawned inside walls and rendered almost impossible to kill. I’ve gotten softlocked more times than is forgivable, and I dread to think how much progress I’ve cumulatively lost as a result. By the time the game outright crashed, it felt like hitting the middle square of a bingo card.

    In decades past, Bethesda’s games have gotten away with being busted beyond reason because they were “so ambitious,” but any leeway that might have historically earned has long since dried up. Higher reaching productions from less wealthy companies haven’t been half so defective, not to mention dated. Compared to its contemporaries, the complacency on display is almost offensive. While Starfield’s galaxy is nebulously “big,” its vast array of barren planets populated by recycled assets is absolutely no justification for what this thing truly is - just another buggy Bethesda game following an ancient blueprint that hasn’t evolved creatively or mechanically since Fallout **** 3. On a fundamental level, Starfield plays exactly like any other Bethesda game, only with features borrowed - and subsequently lessened – from No Man’s Sky and The Outer Worlds. The same rudimentary combat (only without VATS to wallpaper over how sloppy it is). The same archaic approach to exploration and questing. The same stilted dialog propelled by non-sequitur exchanges. The same moronic A.I. and robotic animations. The same old narrative cliches in a world of cardboard where every stranger tells you their life story and immediately trusts you with sensitive tasks for seemingly no other reason than the fact you’re a videogame protagonist and they somehow know it. Hell, it’s even got the same worthlessly clumsy third-person mode we’ve seen for almost twenty years, just to hammer home how shockingly little Bethesda has advanced as a creative entity.

    People have referred to Starfield as No Man’s Skyrim, and while some have intended that as a slight against this game, I actually think it’s more insulting to Hello Games’ work. No Man’s Sky at least had a universe you could seamlessly explore, with planets you were able to approach and land on in real time. That was actually ambitious. Starfield’s planets can be flown to manually over the course of hours, but you can’t land on them without a menu, loading screens (get used to seeing those), and dull cutscenes. lso, let’s give the devil its due - Hello Games has worked damn hard to improve No Man’s Sky far beyond its launch version to the point it still has massive summer updates at no extra cost. Bethesda’s so averse to improvement that multiple games released years apart feature the exact same unaddressed bugs. It’s a little gauche, admittedly, to draw so many direct comparisons to other games in a review.

    If you’re the kind of person who thinks videogames peaked with Fallout 3's launch version and they’ve required neither evolution nor improvement since, this game is absolutely for you.If you believe Bethesda doesn’t need to exhibit growth as an artistic outlet and hasn’t had to change a thing about the way it’s made games since 2008, I can safely say you’ll adore Starfield.    … Expand

    10 loading screens to come to the next system from 1 city to another... and they are all meaningless steps...

    i mean u could also have a rick and morty portal gun and thats it... 1 loading screen and bye fake "space exploration" wich does not exist at all... and we would at least got not a loading screen simulation...

    i am sorry bethesda but nobody of you played ever an exploration game like no mans sky... this feels immersive... this even has a story... this even has no walls and 100 restrictions like your "open world"... in NMS i can actually explore and have a progress with my ships and weapons and upgrades and then u can quest too... and have a interesting deep story!!!

The graphics of the almost three-year-old Cyberpunk 2077 wipe the floor with the Bethesda novelty.And when it comes to cleverly staged dialogue set to music, the developers could have taken a leaf out of Baldur's Gate 3's book. If we add to this the well-known Bethesda quirks such as the crude interface design, the laborious inventory management, the omnipresent loading screens and the numerous glitches, and add new weaknesses such as the fragmented universe and the dull, procedurally generated content (so many systems and planets and so little ingenuity in fauna, flora and space anomalies), then we can understand every gamer who is disappointed by Starfield, because the strengths that do exist no longer outweigh the weaknesses mentioned.… Expand

    as for the actual game, it is a Bethesda game, it is the same stagnant gameplay loops with some bells and whistles attached.

    as someone who admittedly likes Bethesda games i have to say that this space frontier setting doesn't lend itself well to the Bethesda gameplay loop because most of the world is instanced into hubs rather than a seamless open world experience.

    for instance in Skyrim we all know that "see that mountain? you can walk over there" trope, in Starfield that same mountain is behind an invisible wall and you need to fast travel there, there are no more landmarks that dot the horizon, all the handcrafted content are in fact copy pasted POI's that you'll find on every planet, all the magic is gone because they've went and procedurally generated everything.

    i give this a 0 just because of what it represents: complacency and laziness, "there are over 1000 planets for you to explore!" wow, 1000 planets filled with literally nothing, what a fun premise for a game, please make TES6 just one open world map filled with crafted content and leave the procedurally generated stuff to NMS, please and thank you.    … Expand

    I bought „the world’s most powerfull console” only to play that game. And guess what? I was fooled by Todd Howard and Phil Spencer. They promised a lot and didnt deliver most of it. Game of the generation running in 30fps, cutscene landing everywhere, no land vehicles, the planet looks the same no matter where you land, combat is exactly like the old fallout. This game is just outdated andI bought „the world’s most powerfull console” only to play that game. And guess what? I was fooled by Todd Howard and Phil Spencer.

    I will describe my experience playing STARFIELD in the following words:
    - Boring.
    - Monotonously.
    - Not interested.
    - Empty.
    - Disappointment.

    Literally unplayable on any setup. And don’t tell me 40-60 fps is okay for FIRST PERSON SHOOTER. Poor optimization lots of bugs boring to death gameplay.

    There's a lot of flaws in space in Starfield. But that does not prevent me from exploring our galaxy again and again.

    I fell in love with Starfield. It's my cup of sci-fi and I can't wait to spend the next thirty, fifty, maybe seventy hours here. I enjoy the exploration, the shootouts, the art style, the ship building, and the diverse worlds. I gratefully acknowledge the good optimization and the absence of major bugs. But I can't overlook the flaws. There are bad animations, ugly faces and repetitive moments.[Issue#329]

    In a year dominated by sequels to franchise favorites, there was a hope that Starfield would carve its own path to success. While the team at Bethesda should be commended for taking such a big swing, there’s no denying that the game doesn’t feel like a cohesive work. Maybe continued support and future sequels will make something more meaningful out of a work that is clearly deeply enamored with both science fiction and space exploration. Unforunately, this first launch has had far more mixed results than desired.
