Starfield

I am going to try and say something I haven't yet seen in this thread.

1. The ship builder gets a big like for me because I always wanted to wander around big spaceships. I really like the fact that I can walk around the interiors and build my own designs, even if I'm bad at it.
2. The POIs are identical, and that's horrible. As much emphasis was put on exploration, this is even a bigger disappointment, because once you've seen one X, you'seen every X, down to every single entity placement. This really kills the joy of the entire game for me and I feel angry thinking back to Howard's words about how the game could be played for hours, months, years - like, doing what, exactly?

Aside from that, yeah, pretty much what everybody said: dialogue is boring and censored (like, advertiser/stakeholder friendly), the game is very "take it safe" in important regards, but there's enough story and quests to have fun with the mechanics that actually work.

Overall, it's flawed, but a definite 6/10 - it's just not the game Bethesda made us think it is, again.
