I didn't listen to a single bit of hype before Launch. I didn't watch a single preview of gameplay, graphics, didn't read articles on the proposed mechanics, and absolutely love skyrim and fallout games. I barely knew about starfield other than "Bethesda is making a space game".
Starfield is a good game. Consider that maybe you are just a spoiled brat, or terminally miserable.
So, maybe it isn't the game you thought it was gonna be. Idc, that's a you problem. I've got ~100 hours in it, and only just now started slowing down on playing it. And that's more if a "less time on the computer in general" move, less of "starfield doesn't sound fun right now".
Stop believing corporations when they hype shit up, be a smarter consumer. You don't get any cool points for being a fan boy of an entity that exists to take your money. Stop worshipping at the feet of that which entertains you. It honestly super pathetic, and makes you seem simple, and makes you way more likely to make up expectations that are unwarranted, or believe hype that's premature.
Edit: cope harder cry babies
No, multiple of the core skill trees are flat out broken.
You can invest skill points in outpost building, only to eventually realize that they give you no way of even building flat ground.
You can invest skill points in stealth, only to eventually realize that the stealth mechanics are either utterly bugged out and broken, or if working as intended, were designed by a sadist who hates stealth games.
You can invest skill points in unarmed combat, only to very quickly realize that there is flat out no quick way of going unarmed.
And through these and several other broken skill tree paths, you can learn that there is never any way to respec and you're stuck having wasted skill points in cool sounding stuff that is actually useless. There are aspects of this game that are fundamentally broken.
When I take that much time to write out a comment, which is clearly opinion, and I see a reply which has the first word "No", I stop reading.
"I think Starfield is a good game" is an opinion.
Is a statement of claimed fact followed by spraying in the dark character attacks against anyone criticizing the game for any reason.
How are you attempting to twist an objective qualifier like "good" into definitively stated fact? Fuck off lmao get a life. And consider.
