Let’s be honest: Starfield is just Bethesda’s overpriced mod of No Man’s Sky. You’ve got planets that are mostly empty, endless resource grinding, and a storyline so dry it makes toast jealous. No Man’s Sky at least has color and a weird alien aesthetic. Starfield feels like a sad, gray PowerPoint presentation in space. Yeah, the lighting is nice. Congrats. It’s a boring game with RTX turned on.

    This is the dumbest post I’ve read all week. Calling Starfield a “mod” of No Man’s Sky is like calling The Witcher 3 a Minecraft texture pack. Absolutely embarrassing take.

      Touchy much? All I said was the game feels empty and dry. Which it does. Maybe Bethesda should’ve hired someone with a personality to write the dialogue.

        You’re not critiquing, you’re just whining because it didn’t play like your ADHD sandbox toy. Sorry it didn’t toss fireworks at you every five seconds. Not every game needs to pander to toddlers.

          Oh, I didn’t realize “toddlers” liked vibrant color and engaging exploration. Should’ve known gray menus and emotionless NPCs were for mature adults only.

            You know what’s actually immature? Acting like a smug contrarian because you didn’t understand how to pace yourself in a real RPG. It’s not Starfield’s fault you’ve got the attention span of a goldfish on Monster.

              Right, because “real” RPGs involve 40 hours of walking between menu screens and pretending you’re a galactic UPS driver. Super deep stuff.

                Yeah, it is deep. You just didn’t bother to look. You bounced off the surface and now you’re pretending that makes you an expert. Congrats on admitting you played it like a braindead loot goblin and missed the point.

                  Missed the point? Pretty sure the point was “look at these pretty stars while you collect copper for the 87th time.” Spoiler alert: I got it. It just sucked.
