Starfield's rating drops to "mixed" on Steam as players crown it "Bethesda's most mediocre game to date" https://t.co/QolLRM1U1Y

I thought it was a boring game with no soul but it had a really interesting premise.

All it needed was a better plot, characters, and worldbuilding. The gameplay itself was fine, its just that Bethesda gave us no reason to care about anything.

Meanwhile Bungie hanging from a thread

Looks like Steam users didn't get the Xbox Tax memo.

IGN and gamespot def had an accurate score

Bro... Its a game about exploration and there's nothing to explore

As soon as any logical thinking person heard 1000 planets... We knew that sh1t is gonna be boring AF... They could made 3 or 4 planets with multiple locations for people to explore and come across new sh1t but they made the game so big that none of the sh1t they wanted to do paid off... Its just a boring a$s game that's too big for its own good (Pause)

Skyrim in space just like Fallout 4 was Skyrim in a nuclear holocaust. Bethesda never really does anything different and the games are ALWAYs riddled with the same exact bugs. That's their problem.

I said about a year and a half ago, maybe two years ago:

Ma$s Effect has already done everything Starfield could do at the highest level possible. There was no way Bethesda was going to match or exceed expectations. The bar was too fu#king high for their talent levels

sh1t is reggie

Every single company that has tried to tackle a million planets to explore has failed miserably. Every single one, no matter how much time and money they had.

Fallout 4 in space was always the premise. I thought maybe they'd take this one chance to build a new engine but within ten seconds of the first gameplay trailer I saw it was like nope, that's the same jump animation from 2008 FO3

FO4 looking better and better the more people learn to hate Starfield. Game is going to be damn near ten years old and still their magnum opus.

Stop trying Fallout and Skyrim by saying this game is them in space. This is a mediocre game with ill advised game design.

People can say what they want about a game like Redfall but I think with less expectations and maybe another year in the oven that game could have been decent and a lot of fun especially with 3 friends.

I think Starfield was doomed at the brainstorming/figuring out the gameplay loop stage. This game is just not enjoyable past a certain point and even before that it's a lot of powering through bullsh1t we're expected to do.

I hate to say that I don't even think the modding community is saving this game.

“Most Mediocre Game To Date”

The mods will fix it

Yet it's still the most talked about game amongst Sony fanboys.

Slap away because you know it's true.

No one cares

Back to Spiderman 2

Buy it all gang wins again

It’s probably the most talked about in gaming community as a whole after missing out on all the GOTY noms. Not just ponies or xbots.

It’s just a feature of having such a massive hype machine behind it and failing to deliver.

A game as high profile as Starfield which promised so much but delivered so little by comparison is always going to be the story of the year.

Same thing that happened to CP2077 after its launch. It was easily the most talked about game that year.

I agree, their entire vision was all fluff no substance.

And yeah the mod community doesn’t seem to be giving this game much attention so far…
