Did you have the game on a hdd or an ssd? That was a big technical problem of CP77. On an ssd it worked perfectly fine.

Bland, rushed and full of bugs is an exaggeration and very subjective. Starfield is worst on that aspect.

Again, look at steam ratings if you want to see an objective rating of the game since launch. CP77 had 20% of bad review despite the flaming even on media that never talked about a video game before, and that is since the first month of release. It's a bit early for starfield but current evaluation is at 28% of bad reviews.

Starfield has a worst launch than CP77. That is a hard fact.

Again, no it wasn't perfectly fine. Of course, I had it on an M2 drive. No amount of whitewashing can cover up the fact it was broken and unfinished on launch, and that's why there was such a well deserved backlash.

They promised things that simply weren't in the game. There were clear unfinished parts of the world, the story, and the gameplay.

Starfield is Skyrim in space. If you like that formula, great, you got Skyrim in space.

It's not whitewashing when the statistics talk for themselves.
