Downloaded and starting playing last night. Looks incredible. It was late, and I was tired, so I didn't get very far. Definitely still getting acclimated with the ship controls, which my fingers don't seem to like very much. :-) [Reply]

Ship controls are kind of a pain, I'm not much on the flight sim stuff so I'm hoping I can skip it or put it on autopilot and enjoy the rest of the game. The best part is this is BY FAR the least buggy Bethesda game ever. I only played an hour or so but it looks pretty good. It's harder than I had anticipated so SAVE OFTEN unless you like losing progress.

"Unfinished buggy mess" is the consensus I've seen. Some people already beat the game (less than 24hrs) & reported it is "worse than Diablo 4" (oof, shots fired).
Not a surprise: gaming has turned into HUGE business. Timelines and marketing matter more than complete/fun for many developers these days.
I put games like this on my wishlist & wait for the "major patch" release + hefty Steam sale discount. Example: I am now playing Cyberpunk 2077 and loving it. It was an absolute dumpster fire of a release... so much so it tarnished CD Projekt Red's sterling reputation (after Witcher 3 it was thought they could do no wrong).
Bethesda already pulled this shit w/ several of their series, so trust is low. [Reply]

I (like most) have been following this game's development for years as the premise sounds awesome.
I just....every time i watch gameplay footage the world seems kinda dead to me. Im worried that it'll be vast, slow and mostly empty.
It seems like it could be another gorgeous, empty game. [Reply]

Don't know what people were expecting then. If it's just the status quo for Bethesda why the outrage? Just seems a bit odd to me is all.
Edit: Cyberpunk 2077 is actually a pretty great example of a game that folks were justifiably pissed about. Completely tanked the reputation of CDPR and I'm not sure they'll ever recover back to where they were. Bethesda, OTOH, is pretty much known for porting the same games they had success with a decade ago in perpetuity. [Reply]
Its fallout 76 in space with more loading screens.
The game is hollow. Space flight Compared to a NMS or elite dangerous its like a 2d version of that. Ground game is unfinished, 2013 graphics, and 2006 gameplay.
Oh and did i mention the loading screens? lol
Its as if someone told AI what a cool space game would be, and the AI painted a picture, but really didnt know what it was painting, just that it had read about it somewhere. [Reply]

No Mans Sky is incredibly boring, ya it looks pretty but it's about Survival and not much fighting other than space dogfighting. [Reply]

Oh i agree. But the space game, planet transitions, flora fauna etc are light years beyond starfield
I did because of woke bs. I was fine at first and then I the span of 30 mins two companions were sexual preference rping me and I figured at 10 hours in that was the writing on the wall the dialog designs did not have me as a target market at all. [Reply]

Yeah, I didn't care for that shit at all. But it's a small thing I can click through quickly. Barrett is especially creepy - the way he says "I have something for you" sounds like he's some deviant using candy trying to lure you into a windowless white van in a dark alley.
Because I neglected the main storyline I didn't come across the Russian chick until really late in my first playthough. She can lure me anywhere she wants to. :-) I'll be keeping her as my primary follower and relegating Barrett, Coe and his bratty kid to shipboard duties. [Reply]
