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

Let’s not even talk about the inconsistencies (and sometimes flat out bugs) while exploring. 0% oxygen and a settler appears without a suit. -18 and I get frostbite. -150 and I’m ok with the same suit. And what about sonic boom from a ship landing near me when there’s no atmosphere? (I get, a game without sound in space is just bad immersion, but still, feels strange) Speaking of landing ships, why the hell do they land near me all the time? Are they following me?

I often had to deal with ships landing kinda far away, so I'd start running to get to them, but they'd fly away within 30 seconds and before I could get to them.

What's the point of having them at all if they're going to land for like 20 seconds then fly away?

Oh, now, they’re there but the ramps are not down, so, why are they even there?

On a side note, can you enter a starborn ship? They’re always inaccessible. (I know we get into one during the main quest, but I’m asking about those that follow us around.)
