    The game is a masterpiece, and BGS finest work to-date. It is a must play and will be one of the games of the generation to be played for the next decade.

    Game is great, and any score under a "7.5" is either by a Playstation user, or in rare occasions, someone who just hates this type of game, but most of those people wouldn't bother reviewing, because they wouldn't have played the game... just like all the Playstation users.

    Depending on your taste, game is anything from a 7.5 to a 10. Play it and decide for yourself.

    Am giving this game 10/10 for many reasons. Game is huge, lots of things You can do. I spent hours doing side missions. Started hunting things. My character is a narcissist berzerker. I like the story line, it takes unexpected turns. Sound and graphics are really good. Few small but funny errors, nothing major. I cant really say too much as i dont want to. spoil it. Its a great game,Am giving this game 10/10 for many reasons. Game is huge, lots of things You can do. I spent hours doing side missions. Started hunting things.

    Honestly, best game of the year, no longer best game of the decade. May end up being the best game of all time, I'll tell you once I have put in more than 100 hours! Amazing game, not flawless, but the positives more than out weigh the negatives. Its getting a 10 from me, It really is a masterpiece!

    What an Excellent game. Pulls you in From the start with amazing Gameplay and graphics.
    That's 6 First Party games for Xbox this year, Forza Motorsport next month too.
    Ignore low scores they are just Sony fanboys, they haven't had one First party game release this year so they have nothing better to do. Sony only have just yet another Spiderman game for this whole year and

    Sony only have just yet another Spiderman game for this whole year and unfortunately that will probably be review bombed too because of them doing it here.

    Wow really there are seriously butt hurt people about loading screens and exploration. This game wasn't ever suppose to be open world. Yes there are too many loading screens, yes you cant land your ship on each planet, but the pros outweigh its cons. Seriously this is massive in scope in terms side quests and main story quests, I get immersed by it voice acting and graphics are soo goodWow really there are seriously butt hurt people about loading screens and exploration.

I'm 20hrs in and I love this game. Sarah Morgan my companion is in love with me and there's a quest to get married somewhere. You get to talk to her in between quests, and get to find out what she wants, talks about her past trauma and then another quest starts. Great game!! Classic Bethesda story and quest system. BTW the gameplay the shooting mechanics are very good much better than Fallout 4. Expand

    I don't understand the hate this game is getting, don't hear the console warriors, I'm currently 25 hours into the game and it's freakin awesome, you'll be hooked (not instantly) but in the first 5 hrs that's for sure, planets are beautiful, ship building is tons of fun, combat has been improved from past Bethesda's games.

    I have played 52 hours so far. What are my thoguhts? This is the best Bethesda game since Oblivion!!!!!!!!! Simply wonderful an a huge improvement from Fallout 4 and Fallout 76.

    Bethesda is back!! Wonderful game and second best of 2023, behind BG3. Get this game now, it is simply amazing!

    The game is fantastic. Very good story and keeps me hooked. Everywhere I go there is a reason to explore. The constellation team is really cool and with very good writing. I got the dream home trait and my first hours were about getting money to pay the house. Start the Vangard quest line earlier because it gives a lot of context to the universe of Starfield. The game is fantastic.

    The game is just evocative and smart. There is always more stuff to discover around the corner. The side quests are fun. Some of the npcs are quite funny.

    It's a stunning experience. I can see why some people don't like it. But trust me when I say you need to decide for yourself. And stick with it, it's only gotten better for me. It wasn't a 10. Now it is. Bethesda has done it again. Best one since Oblivion.

    Amazing game don't listen to all the fanboys trying to review bomb the game. it starts slow but gets better and better. Best game I have played in the last 10years. Its really pathetic that there are so many people trying to destroy the game because its not on PlayStation.

    Good game. Ok graphics and it runs well on series s .if you do some of the side quest this game can last past 40 hours.

    It's a great game but not without flaws. To be honest, it worths a 8.5/10. But I'm tired of kids who put 1 or 0. If you enjoy Betheda's games and space opera...this latter is for you

    Total banger!!! The best game I've played ever since Morowind and the original FF7. It has everything a great RPG should have and a whole lot more. I may spend the next few years of my life playing this game!!!

    Es un fallout en el espacio con las mecanicas mejoradas y algunas nuevas como el combate de naves o la creacion dinamica de entornos que a mi gusto suman mas que restan.
    Le pongo un 100 por no salir en PS5. No vale llorar loosers

    My short review is based on roughly 70 hours of play and main story finished.
    Although the game could certainly use some optimization, its still an incredible space RPG absolutely packed with a variety of content, interesting characters and fun combat, something that we haven't really seen the likes of since the Mass Effect series.

    Ignore all of these PS fanboys who are salty that they can't play this game. Is it truly a 10/10...? No, but it is a solid 9 at least. It has some flaws, but overall it is one of the most complete games I've played in a long time. I loved playing FO3 as a kid and progressing through Skyrim and FO4 for hundreds of hours.

    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.
