    BG3 is boring as fuck but it doesn’t excuse Hogwarts Legacy for being a bit too formulaic. Also Starfield is just a loading screen simulator

      I dont mind the loading screens. I just dont mind that there are a lot of them since they are like less than 5seconds each ? Of course I would prefer no loading screens at all but im also sure a seamless Starfield would be a much bigger and probably expensive game to make.

      There are things that bother me about Starfield. The loading screens arent one of them.

        I think it’s more that the transitions are jarring. If they’d made jumps and inter planetary transitions first person cutscene loads like a lot of space games like freelancer, there’d be less complaining. And occasionally they are that and they decided not to make it the only way.

        Anyway script extender is now out, so open cities and better transitions are likely a monthbor two away.

          Elite dangerous doesn’t even having loading screens for flying from surface to orbit to another star system. Like there are loading screens, but they’re all hidden so it looks seamless. Ten year old game.
