Starfield is the first and only Bethesda game I haven't really liked. It's got all the same gameplay elements, but it's lacking the world building and interesting stories. The lore is bland as fuck, barely scratches the surface of what you'd want to know, and none of the stories really lean into actually telling you about the world in a fun way, opting instead to give big blocks of dialogue that are nothing but history and exposition. Where is the environmental story-telling they've always had? Is the blandness of the world simply a matter of it being new and young and not having nearly as much history as Elder Scrolls and Fallout to build on? Have they simply lost their touch? Believe me, I have tried to like this game. I am a huge fan of space stuff and Bethesda games, but it just doesn't have that certain something that makes their games actually fun.
