No. No it isn’t. It has worse space exploration than a game from 2016(NMS), worse inventory management than Minecraft, and an unnecessary amount of loading screens that haven’t been seen since Borderlands 1.
I hate defering to review scores, but most reviews agree despite some issues it is a pretty good game. Everyone I know who’s played it in real life is enjoying it despite the issues. I’m not saying you enjoyed it as you clearly didn’t, but your experience clearly isn’t universal.
I gave it about 55 minutes before I realized I wasn’t having fun, and had no desire to continue hoping it would get better(Then I hopped on the real GOTY, Battlebit Remastered). I also went in blind and had no expectations other than “fallout set in space”.
I also hate referring to review scores but if we’re going off of that metric then my Friend Pepa Pig is truly a great work of art, right next to God of War.
I’ll write a thesis and put in hundreds of hours next time I decide to try and play a bad game just to appease some random internet people, sure.
I didn’t enjoy the gun fights, the space fights, the fast traveling, or any of the characters so why would I continue to play something I find unenjoyable and bland.
I’m not going to spend my limited gaming time hoping something gets better just so I can shitpost on the internet.
I didn’t buy it, I have a couple months left on my Game pass Ult sub so it was “free”. I also like those themes but didn’t enjoy the implementation in this game.
Hard disagree. I gave NMS about 30 hours before I dropped it. Picked it up a few times after big updates, still just a hollow shell of a game to me, with basically zero story or objectives.
I didn’t say it had a good story, I said it had better space exploration. Being able to actually land on a moon or planet in the system you are in VS fast travel and loading screens is vastly different.
“Starfield is a good game”

If you believe you can form an informed opinion after only 55 minutes of playing, then you are flat out wrong.
You haven’t even seen half the mechanics available, let alone explored the many different factions and scifi genres the game has to offer.
You opinion is about as valuable as a random cow’s opinion about the British Royal Family.

Why did you buy it? That’s like, the entire game.

I have 500 hours in that game and I’m just going to go ahead and ask it. What?
Yep
I didn’t say it had a good story, I said it had better space exploration. Being able to actually land on a moon or planet in the system you are in VS fast travel and loading screens is vastly different.
I get why you want to land a ship, and I’m glad you have NMS to do that in. It’s gotta have something to keep you entertained afterall.
If you made it 30 hours in NMS and still couldn’t find the story then I can’t help you bud. Just get back on Starfield and suck on that copium.
Played NMS for many hours.
Did some fun things in it like repairing crashed ships and reselling them, exploring strange worlds, did space battles, …
The story was not one of em. It was so bland and uninteresting.
Not once did I say it had a good story, but it does have a story. It has better space exploration by a longshot which was my point.
