Starfield Review - Jump Dash Roll

Starfield is not only the best RPG since 2010’s Fallout New Vegas, but one of the best video games ever made.

Shillin' It's got a 5.5 user on meta.

[Sonic1881]

5.1 on the PC version. You would think that the PC version would get a higher user score

[anast]

Exactly

review bombers dont care where they land just so long as they hit a target.

[crazyCoconuts]

Dropped into the 70's on Steam and still dropping

“one of the best video games ever made.”

Thanks for saving me a click. Lol

[Eidolon]

Trust me bro. it's the best game ever made and the best game that will ever be made.

Review bombing is a thing.

[Seraphim]

says the person who's first RPG since 2010 was Starfield. There's been a lot of great RPGs released since 2010. This writer needs to game more or expand their horizons.

[Seraphim]

lol at all the downvotes - guess everyone forgot the beloved Skyrim dropped in 2011. Not to mention all the other great RPGs along the way such as, but not limited to The Witcher 3 in 2015.... or is The Witcher 3 suddenly not one of the best RPGs.

Its a solid game. This was predicted many years ago: Bethesda would not be viewed with as much adoration due to the shifting expectations of gamers. Bethesda put an equivalent amount of hard work and effort into starfield that other devs have put into their games. It just manifests itself differently. But ever since the last of us 1 dropped, the expectations of gamers has been quite clear. Graphics, presentation ( character animations etc), and story. Bethesda is still doing what they have been doing. The thing that has changed is people’s expectations.

[Cockney]

I knew it was our fault all along

[Armaggedon]

Not necessarily. I mean if you dont like the game you dont like it. Everyone own individual thoughts and impressions are technically valid towards the game. It is just my hope that people can see the value in the game, even if it does not meet individual or industry standard.

[ziggyzinfirion]

Not exactly sure how you end up blaming The Last of Us for the sudden change of gamers expectations. What about games like Elden Ring or Breath of the Wild which scored higher than the game you mentioned? I respect that you liked Starfield and your adoration to Bethesda but dude, people will always have different opinions or
expectations.

[Armaggedon]

It is simply an observation. People saying that Bethesda keeps making the same games and are not evolving kind of highlights the changing expectations of gamers. The thing isn’t people having different preferences, its the gross lack of understanding that many people have. Many cannot see the value of a thing beyond their own likes or preferences. It is a leading cause toward the disharmony we see in these very comment sections.

[PhillyDonJawn]

Definitely game of the gen contender

[InUrFoxHole]

Another good score for a great game. Ty God Howard!

[AnotherGamer]

How the heck is this game getting perfect scores?

[343_Guilty_Spark]

Cause it’s awesome flaws and all

[Yui_Suzumiya]

Because people have different tastes, lol .. this is the only impressive triple A title this entire gen so far.

[AnotherGamer]

Baldur's Gate?

[Armaggedon]

Some people are really enamored with the value the game offers. Bethesda games are a bit of an anomaly. For those who find value in its quirks, Starfield is the ultimate game. To those who do not, it is a boring game lacking in care and ambition (aka game doesn’t have cutscenes for every npc you speak with).

[gigoran8]

I have to restart the game 4 times just to get the dialogue audio to work. 10/10? at least the perfect scores are showing which websites can be trusted.

Trust me bro /s
