    Amazing game. Graphics are great and gameplay is even better. Haven't touched the main story and I'm 50hrs into the game.

    I honestly think this is a great game, with so much to do, sure there are things that they could have done better, like actual space exploration and land vehicles, but it's a bit of the familiar mixed with something new. Give it a try it's definitely worth it, as for the PS5 fans review bombing it, it's so unessessary PS has so many great exclusives you should be grateful for them and justI honestly think this is a great game, with so much to do, sure there are things that they could have done better, like actual space exploration and land vehicles, but it's a bit of the familiar mixed with something new.

    A solid Bethesda game, and if this is what you went in expecting (unlike some children who thought this game would be the second coming of video game
    Jesus) then you will not be disappointed.
    Excellent story, wonderful side quests and the guns feel great. Probably my favourite Bethesda game. Remember children, don’t be mad because the features YOU thought were coming aren’t there.

    It's a great game but starts slow. After 8-10 hours it turns interesting, it's basically Fallout in space!

    Nothing new Bethesda fails again. Starting with a bad price-quality ratio. What we got was a new Skyrim with a buggy, weak main plot, mediocre graphics and hideous character faces. The map, UI, AI and expansion are pennies than TES, WHICH IS SIMPLY STUPID. Ship combat and gunplay are at best done at an average level.

    Fantastic game where you can choose what you're playing. Want full RPG, do it. Space sin type, do it. Base building, got it. Spaceship creation, it's there. Playing it on a Series X and apart from a rare hiccup it's smooth and looks great, the level of detail is quite incredible. If you loved Fallout you'll love this.

    Even if textures and graphics are not the most advanced, still makes huge steps since fallout 76.
    Side stories or secondary missions are incredibly good, as Bethesda always does.

    Starfield is an amazing game from BGS from the beautiful scenery to the epic quests you can find while exploring the Starfield universe. It's a must play for anyone that loves sci-fi or exploring the unknown.

    Bethesda make the best massive world RPG's and Starfield is no different. Ignore the Sony backbenchers spreading lies and deceit because it's not on their plastic box of choice. Game of the god dam year.

    So I was worried starfield was over hyped so I got game pass and played it. At first I was not a fan but it grew on me and then bam there the good ol Bethesda. Making me mad then so comfy everything is alrite. I really like this game. Now that said the miniplanetmap is garbage just garbage. It's the 22nd century how does the character not jave one active.

    the pros
    1. very expansive game, freedom to choose my path
    2. intresting storyline,
    3. a space game that is right in my wheel house.
    4. the ability to use my gamesave on both xbox and pc

    the cons
    1. the tutorial system is lacking (no where near as harsh as eve online i have played for years)
    2. i have had a number of crashes to desktop
    3. i have had a few bugs where the characters i have to talk to are not there (fixed via reload the game).

    Very meh. Some fun to be had, but it is mediocre. More of an rpg than Fallout 4, but somehow not as good. Xbox needed this to be an amazing game, but it isn't. If avowed is a horrible game, I'm selling my series x. This is ridiculous

    This game lacks substance, the direction, the thought is great but the execution is terrible. Put this potential gem back in the oven for another 2 more years and maybe they can flesh out some proper exploration game play.
    I know Xbox gamers are hungry for a smash hit but this just isn't it, however when you have been starved for so long, anything would be considered great.

    Still haven't actually finished the game, but for the first time in many many years I can't wait to fire a game up every moment I can. The game gives me the feelings I had when I was playing in my 20s and now I'm 39. This is enough for a 10/10 for me, giving a 9/10 only due to the fact it could have been a better game looking at its technical side.

    It is true that you'll find a good number of barren wastelands with little to do other than extracting some resources and take off to more interesting places, but again it really depends on how you want to play. There's so much to do, so many systems and abilities to explore, missions to complete, spaceships to loot, and species to catalogue, that I honestly don't think there's anybody who thinks that exploring every square meter of this universe is the better way to enjoy Starfield.

    While it has weak spots and doesn’t push many boundaries, Starfield is still an excellent RPG experience. Bethesda has once again mastered the things it built its reputation on – world building, quest design, and deep customization. However, it’s found new things to excel at too, with exciting combat and a novel implementation of New Game Plus.
