I’ve been playing Starfield since launch, and in the beginning I LOVED the game. It seemed like there was so much to explore and do, I felt absolutely overwhelmed.

The game I had been waiting for was here and it was SICK.

Until now.

After beating the game, doing NG+s and doing general role-play; this game is just empty.

Every planet: 98% the same

Every random location: 100% the same

Loot in containers: Always garbage

Unique weapons: N O N E

Crafting systems: basic yet, EXTREMELY CONVOLUTED

Weapon Upgrade: ??? HAHAHAHAHA

Flying: Okay, this is the best part of the game

Fast Traveling: L O A D I N G S C R E E N S

Vendors: Less credits than one gun sells for

It just feels like all this game exists of is 12 different guns, 12 different random locations, 12 different geological features, 12 different biomes, 12 different forms of weather and a SMALL handful of unique and hand build locations that, to top it off: EXISTS AMONGST HUNDREDS OF PLANETS.

I want to play the game. My mouse is hovering over it right now. But I can’t bring myself to click it.

SINCE PEOPLE ARE ASKING: TIME PLAYED: 17d 22h 53m

    I loved it basically same way as all Bethesda games. I am able to spend tens or hundreds hours in the game, almost zero progress in story, and then completely lose the will to continue. I will pick it up again as I always do, but I think I will never finish the main story.

      finishing the main story is what kept me playing longer, now I just log in to see if I can build a ship I like or see about organizing a nice looking outpost but got too much stuff in life going on now to get back into it as I did a few weeks ago

      I have like 300 hours in fallout 4 and I have never finished the main story. I always get distracted and end up with too many mods to do it lol
