I realize this is not necessarily the consensus, but it seems that as time has gone on since the release of Starfield, it is becoming more and more clear that the game is mediocre at best, and tediously boring at worst. So I’m wondering what it is that people see as the most egregious issues with the game, and what could bring it from mediocre to great? As the title says, I am wondering if Bethesda could do what Cyberpunk did, and bring the game from being a let down to being amazing. Thoughts?

If CDPR had just stuck to PC and 9th Gen console, the launch would have gone better since multiple problems seemed to stem from the lack of power on last gen consoles. The mid-gen refreshes performed better then the base consoles and the new consoles and PC performed better then the refreshes.
Cyberpunk at least looked good and was original. SF is dross on a dated engine and polluted with woke nonsense - Cyberpunk the exact opposite.
Be customer friendly. few free DLCs with patches, upgrade the game overtime. Remove or reduce loading screens. Add 1-2 good quality story DLCs. Balance/nurf powers . Visuals feel outdated outdoors. NPCs feel like walking mannequins.
Bethesda fucked themselves. They won’t even be able to pull their own arse out of the shit they’ve mired themselves in this time around. The investment they made on Starfield was way too committing for them to take this punch and walk away from it. That’s what happens when you believe you were infallible and modders would surely rip themselves a new one to mend the heap of shit you crapped out.
Who cares? We already got a new generation of devs on the horizon (Larian) and smack dab in the middle of it all (CD Projekt). They will whack oldtimers like Toddie back to the geriatrics home they belong in.
The game isn’t broken, it’s just a standard Bethesda game. Cyberpunk was bad because it was busted and had loads on the cutting room floor.
