Bethesda and MS were a match made in horrible PR heaven

That club they made is worth the negative reviews alone. Never seen a more lifeless looking club where nothing happens and the music sucks. Then there’s the fact that planets are pretty lifeless and you can run through one for 5mins to another checkpoint and find nothing in between. It really makes you appreciate CP2077 even if it had a not so amazing start but turned into some great later on. It doesn’t matter how many times you patch Starfield…it’s not getting any better.

Are they seriously comparing a video game to going to the ACTUAL FUCKING MOON? Is this an out of season aprip fool’s joke?

Bros comparing apples to whales

I loved this game and still play it but using amp to run faster because everything interesting is 900m away is ass

It’s the only game I’ve ever returned

Devs shouldn’t respond like this to criticism because it’s valid. The dev basically just told that guy that his opinion doesn’t matter.

Ones a video game, the other is real life.

JFC. That’s like someone sending their food back at a restaurant and the chef says, “This food isn’t rancid, you just have an unrefined palette”

They’ll never reach Skyrim levels, their next response will read:

We are sorry that you don’t like Loot Boxes, Microtransactions, Battle Passes and Seasons in Elder Scrolls 6.

But you see, loot boxes are literally the same thing as opening a chest at the end of the cave in Skyrim. Microtransactions are are just gold, but instead of crafting items and selling your loot, you work for it at your real job and bring it in the world. It’s very realistic, you see. We put in seasons because, well,the real world has seasons, nothing to explain here. Realism. And the battle passes as well, because remember how you battled in Skyrim and then when you went to Whiterun with a message and the guard didn’t let you pass and then he let you pass and then you had to battle bad guys. See? Battle Pass was always there.

Oh and we like expensive things and don’t want to live like regular people. So it’s kind of like a fantasy for us as well.

You know I was actually going to get Starfield, but this developer reply has put me off

It would be fun if you could actually land, and get the feeling that you are exploring, then take off until the blue sky turns into a pitch black full of stars like No Man’s Sky or Elite Dangerous.

Not just jumping through loading screens literally every single time. The only times you can fly in space is to orbit around planets.

Game is somewhat too realistic to be fun, was hoping something more like Mass Effect.

I’ve had some moments of genuine enjoyment exploring the empty planets. That doesn’t change the fact that those planets are really boring. It was more that I was having fun despite the game design, not because of it.

“They certainly weren’t bored”

• didn’t hang around very long though did they and have yet to see a 2nd playthrough…… 🙄

…… much like my experience with this game.
