    This game is a downgrade in almost every way to Fallout 4, which itself was a massive downgrade compared to Fallout 3 / NV.

    Todd as usual did a great job at manipulating gamers into hyping this up. Good thing my expectations were low as Bethesda does nothing but disappoint lately.

    Yes I am the catfish on **** and yes I'm really a guy. Does starfield live up to being bethesdas best game or best game of this generation? No... only the **** want this game as a "win" and it's trash

    When they said they were going to implement AI into the game, I didn't think they were referring to the game itself

    Starfield terrible, awful game with n64 graphics, bethesda bad, Todd and Phil lies to fans. Game is scam, no space, no story, no missions. Xbox bad and no one actually plays it

    El peor videojuego que he jugado en mi vida, la verdad estoy muy decepcionado porque llevaba esperando este juego de 2009. Es horrible en todos los aspectos y el rendimiento es fatal en mi Series S.

    Game is boring since minute 1, I could not continue playing it.
    Playstation has better IPs, Xbox sucks.

    After Skyrim, they had 10 years to develop this game. But they haven't developed anything for 10 years. Optimization sucks. The overall game design sucks. NPCs suck. They made the same mistakes in Skyrim and released the game half finished. Why? Because modders can do the work they left unfinished. This game is not 2023 game. This game is 2013 game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is a total disrespect to the real players. Normal people who aren't company fan boys. Lots of loading screens, equal and empty planets, no facial expressions, complicated maps to understand, fake exploration, the game ship is just an illusion of exploration, space is a PNG screen, 30 FPS crashes and falls on many times, horrible NPCs. Everything that has been promised about this game is a real lie and illusion. A smaller studio would make a better game than that. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. REALLY bad storytelling. Bland uninteresting characters. Nick Valentine from Fallout 4 is more interesting than every Starfield character combined.

    Here is the horrible story set-up in the introduction:
    - First day mining on the job. Your boss finds an anomaly they don't understand and tells you to investigate it by yourself (this would never happen in any job)
    - You touch a rock and pass out
    - Wake up and everyone says you're special because you randomly passed out
    - Random guy you don't know all of a sudden gives you his ship and robot

    Maior decepção, o jogo esta muito mal otimizado, cheio de bugs, muitos carregamentos, os npcs sao horríveis, I.A. burra estilo RedFall, as viages espaciais sao medíocre, os planetas sao uma imagem de fundo que vc nunca alcança, não existe viagem espacial. O jogo é pura propaganda enganosa, venderam como o maior jogo do ano, com muitas possibilidades mas está cheio de limitações

    This game is a failure from the conceptual stage. DO NOT BUY. Only try it out if you already have Gamepass.
    Bethesda developers have shown their incredible lack of talent with this title.
    It's time for Todd Howard to move on...

    Starfield is an occupied game and Microsoft once again proved its rank is lower than Sony and Bethesda studio lost its credibility among players. This game is full of bugs and these failures affect the process of game experience. All NPCs are very artificial and do not convey any emotion

    I have played on a very high-end PC and had a lot of problems with the game. I have had several bugs that have made the game experience was not satisfactory, we know that Bethesda is a studio that does not optimize games well. I was excited about the game but I felt like I was playing a Skyrim mixed with FallOut in space. Very empty planets, NPCs that left a lot to be desired.

    I really wish I could give this a better rating, I love Bethesda games, but this time it let me down. I really had high hopes for this game. But it was unexpected. Especially 30 fps on Xbox, which is very boring.

    I played past the 10h mark hoping it would get better but It did not, I just couldn't stand another minuted of this game. To me that has to be the definition of a 0/10 and I hope I can get a refund.

    It's does not have an interesting world/characters, combat gameplay is way bellow average, spaceship combat is even worse

    A **** deception is what this game is, they promised us the game of the decade and it is light years away from being a great game in good conditions, it is full of bugs, it does not keep the FPS stable at any time, it is extremely broken and with a useless AI, Microsoft is deceiving as always to your satisfied customers.

    Estamos frente a un juego con la calidad típica de los estudios de Xbox, simplemente es increíble como hacen fracasar todos los juegos de los estudios que compran, realmente el cancer del gaming actual.

    Una exploración espacial nula, gráficos de xbox 360, crasheos constantes, narrativa deplorable, y jugabilidad mediocre.
    1000 planetas de relleno donde solo 5 son mínimamente interesantes.

    The game is tedious and frustrating to play. Unacceptable to have game mechanics that ruin the player's experience in 2023. They had many years to improve all the horrible game mechanics, but they failed to learn from other video game's mistakes. It's baffling that Cyberpunk 2077 does every single RPG mechanic much better and all this game does is make me appreciate Cyberpunk even more.The game is tedious and frustrating to play.

    It's not just the excessive loading screens, it's all the little details like having proper city maps or a better UI with more information for inventory. Half our time playing should not be spent in menus organizing our inventory and fighting the game mechanics.

    I won't even mention all the bugs and terrible animations, they speak for themselves.

    The sad part is that in a few years some things will likely get patched in, but by that point it would be completely useless as I have already beaten the game and have no desire to play it again.

    AAA games with this much money behind it should be shipped completely polished and finished. And now developers/publishers can't hide behind the COVID excuse, so this game was simply shipped this way because the stubborn heads at Bethesda/Microsoft decided to release it like this.

    They completely failed to live up to all the hype and expectations that they set themselves.

    First, you need really good pc to play this game. This game is not optimized well. I already experienced few bugs like NPCs falling through the floor. Walking through the walls. Sometimes they are dumb! One of my quests are bug stuck, can’t do anything about it until there’s a patch. Space is limited and not free to explore.

    Microsoft is the worst thing that could ever happen to us gamers. Even if Bethesda was on the brink, it was now Micrososft that has completely killed it in one fell swoop.

    Played an hour on GP. Its Fallout but in space. Still using the same game engine as in 2009 as I'm still getting motion sickness. No originality. Same linear scripted borefest. For space games, I just want a ship to start and let me explore the Universe. Gunplay is horrible. Even though it was free, I uninstalled it.

    Muitas promessas não entregues pela Bethesda, exploração espacial, prometeu um jogo super polido, prometeu uma campanha com 50 horas, e eu terminei com 12 horas, enfim, me senti lesado, não recomendo.

    It's a big game, but starts way too slowly, and may never get interesting.

    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.
