I've watched the film and it's nothing more than okay. It's reduced to the point of being bland. The good script can't carry everything else that is mediocre at best.

Some people have made "Bethesda" their trigger word and reflexively bite everyone saying it out. Right before they claim everyone else is at fault for that.
Normal discussions are now nigh impossible.
It was so boring and uninspired. Reminiscence - The movie. Just regurgitating everything we saw in the original.
Neither is Starfield.
135 to 140 hours approximately. I didn't put a lot of effort into outposts, so it could've been more.
How does a loading screen "prolong" playtime when the alternative is going or flying everywhere in real time?
Game is short. People complain. Game is long. People complain. Game makes you stare at five hour space travel. People complain. Game gives you fast travel. People complain. Game takes you by the hand. People complain. Game forces exploration. People complain.
I'm tired.
Some side quests in Starfield are longer than the main quests of other games.
For example, it took me the same amount of time to play through SF once as it took to play through The Witcher twice, including the DLCs.
"Little to no content" is an outright lie.
Femur xylophones! From men and women for men and women. And don't forget the kids!
Also not true. Complexity alone doesn't make a good game / movie / book / piece of art. And lack thereof doesn't make anything worse.
Why is it that when many people like a thing because that thing appeals to masses, it's automatically categorised as lower quality?
Nobody seriously claimed Starfield to be the game of all games. It's good. It's fine. It's not perfect. So what?
That's not the definition of mediocrity. Trying to appeal to a bigger audience doesn't make a game mediocre in the same way not every niche game has the potential of being a masterpiece just by not being that much likeable.
Some games are popular and good.
The story feels rushed and incoherent. Characters without character and chemistry. It's a film in which every aspect of its production was solely determined by the amount of money that was put into it. If Jack Black can't save a mediocre film...
