It's fine. Solid 8/10. Once modding community gets the creation kit it'll be better. I personally feel starfield was more interesting the first 50 hours than skyrim was. Skyrim has a little bit more lore and depth but starfield is solid. It just promises so much. Skyrim is like fleshed out sears, starfield is like a strip mall with infrastructure for more, but empty.

I put 250 hours into starfield. I won't go play new game plus until creation kits comes. I had to play with some UI fixes, crafting changes, and a dozen or so mods that made starfield more my style of game, but that made it fun for me.

Out of the box. Eh. It's fine. But what the community can do is why I bought it. And people need to quit saying "the modders fix the game for the lazy developers!". That's not the case. Bethesda came out with a game that is OK as is, but it's because Bethesda always had a strong modding community that Bethesda embraced that makes the game better, and will be better when we get creation kit.
