Throwback to the hard cope when this game released, the fanboy dismissal of any criticism was insane.

You should have seen the fucking starfield subreddit before release lmao. One guy on there was genuinely convinced this was “something special” and would revolutionize the gaming industry.

The basis for that claim? The way Todd fucking Howard was acting, and the marketing material for the game.

Because people can't have different opinions?

I still think the game is fine. I still think it did some very interesting things. I got over 100 hours of playtime from it. I played on gamepass too. So I definitely got my monies worth.

Does it have problems? Sure. Quite a few, but it's still enjoyable enough of you don't expect the too much. It also had tons of potential of they actually release the creation kit.

I don't think it's the worst game ever. It's not even their worst game.

It's the worst Bethesda RPG game I've ever played. What did you think was worse? I suppose the MMOs?

Brink, Rogue Warrior and Fallout 74 come to mind.

Bethesda doesn't only make RPGs

OK, fair. I was just thinking of the rpgs. Would you agree that it's their worst RPG?
