    Everything feels like Fallout 4, reskinned. The only thing that would have made this game really innovative was the spaceship journeys and they weren't able to provide it, instead everything is a "fast travel, click to go there" experience.

    Lore is non existent in the outer worlds, when you clean an enemy outpost in other games there's always the story of how they ended up there, here it's just clean->loot and that's it. Creatures are not interesting at all. All the super complex mechanisms to research, craft, mod etc it's an overkill and useless at the end.

    But the truth is, the only way I could sum up my experience with Starfield is: BORING. Playing it feels like a chore for me, I can't wait to stop. I found myself creating the most creative excuses to avoid playing this game.
    If I could, I would return this game 10/10.

    P.S. FORGOT TO SAY: It's unplayable without NVIDIA Filters tool. Everything looks so green and gamma is so offset that it makes you wonder what's wrong with their developers monitors. You have to tweak your own filters in order to make this game look normal. Is this normal for a 2023 AAA game?    … Expand

I can’t believe a next gen game has this many load screens when games from 2013 era do not have any!!! Don’t listen to people who say the games great I’m having a blast. They have invested in their Xbox and need this win and will say anything to make out this game is good. The only reason it has so many players is that it’s free on game pass. Really bad game do not waste money on it. No open world exploration or anything that was promised… Expand

    -AI przeciwników to jakiś ponury żart, wygląda to gorzej niż w Redfallu, można w przeciwnika wpakować cały magazynek a on nawet strzału w twoją stronę nie odda (to samo tyczy się towarzyszy).
    - ogólna grafika to poziom gier z początku poprzedniej generacji - bardzo ubogie cieniowanie, tekstury powierzchni kują w oczy, a twarze, mimika i modele postaci to chyba pamiętają czasy x360.
    - strasznie nudne dialogi, drętwe postaci i iluzoryczne wybory, w porównaniu do BG3 to... no nawet nie ma sensu porównywać.
    - większość planet to pustkowia na których nic nie ma (niby realistycznie, ale po co zaśmiecać grę takim contentem) więc główny argument fanów Bethesdy tutaj nie ma prawa bytu bo eksploracja jest mega nudna.
    - dungeony i jakieś bazy to w wiekszości kopiuj wklej, gdzie nawet powtarza się układ skrzynek z lootem.

    El rato que llevo jugando el juego es aburrido, la historia principal cuando empiezas, no genera ningún tipo de emoción, y empiezas en una cueva y el inicio sin sentido.

    The game is a copy of the studio's previous games: there is NOTHING new, no interesting mechanics can be found even with a magnifying glass in hand. Stupid AI, poor optimization with 2016 graphics levels, incompetent plot. Everyone has already seen everything, but the developers are still trying to convince us that this is a game of a new generation.

    Starfield is an overrated pile of crap. Todd Howard is ridiculous by asking gamers to upgrade our systems. If my 2080 can run Cyberpunk 2077 with 100+ fps on High, why should Starfield tank so hard at 55fps at the lowest graphics? Todd Howard says we need new tech BUT it is his dumb choice of using HIS OUTDATED Creative engine to create games...I hope starfield sales tank. Have a 0/10

    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.
