Not surprising considering how bad it is. I could excuse the boring/ nonsensical story (Skyrim and especially FO4) if the other parts of the game, like exploration or the environment were fun. But that’s not even there. The game is just a soulless, boring, flat pile of crap.
The game has an M rating (because of very dangerous drugs, BGS’ words, certainly not mine), yet the dialogue comes off as after school special.
Just play the crimson fleet quest line to understand what I mean if the opening Act didn’t convince you.
SF is a great premise with horrible execution, and unless BGS is willing to go back and re-record their dialogue for tone, I think “mostly negative” is a fair critique.
That’s a shame, I don’t think it’s fantastic, but it’s okay, I felt the mixed tag was pretty fair.
Fitting, the game is also “mostly negative”.
That doesn’t make it trash, but it’s mostly a regression from previous games. Shame that Bethesda seems to be have absolutely zero desire to improve anything about their formula at all.
And as expected, Obsidian’s already-subpar Outer Worlds vs now Starfield really just proved who made all the good open-world RPGs that released under Bethesda’s name.
