People think that every cubic centimeter has to be dripping with new content. Linear game with different boss fights: “ Yeah this is great.”
Ultra massive game with repeated boss fights but 50 times the number of bosses in linear games: “You guys reuse bosses too often.”
This is a sign of something that requires much deeper analysis and correction than bosses in a game: People and their lack of contentment and gratitude.
Doesnt even make sense. Its a single player game
Comparison is the method of interpretation of the blind
The way people keep turning their attention to it says otherwise. People rely too much on statistics. It doesnt matter if people stopped playing it. People stop playing games
Part 2:
Many people would tell me immediately that loading screens and empty planets prove that they failed to pull it off. If you play Starfield like a conventional game yes, it will seem disjointed and lazy; however, to those who realize what Bethesda were going for, you will see that the game is severely underestimated. The idea of God is hated and loved by many, and there is much controversy. Starfield is closer to that idea than people even notice.
A. Ive played it thrice
B. Played with others, so there are moments of watching
C. Know more than I would care to about the game
D.
Thats quite bold, seeing as there are an inumerable amount of games for it to contend with. I also know plenty of people with their own gripes with the game.
As someone that creates things, and has actively sought to gather intel and understanding, I would say Baldurs Gates very nature makes it so it would ha...
Baldurs Gate 3 was great, but I dont think it is as crazy as people make it out to be. I actually think Starfield is closer to being a crazy insane once in a lifetime game, but Im ready for the flak Im about to get.
10/10 is an arbitrary standard that we give to define a “flawless” experience. But, as I always hear, if we are flawed creatures and nothing is perfect, how would we even know what perfect is? As games continue to advance, the scale remains the same still.
10/10 isnt the end. A game can surpass this
Bioware unfortunately have buckled under the weight of mismanagement and EA mandates. Apparently, EA has backed off with their live service mandates, so hopefully they had enough time to separate the live service aspect from the game. I just need Bioware to cough up one more legendary title before their run is over. However, due to the immense amount of talent they have hemorrhaged over the years, I think Inquisition was the end of the line. But hey, maybe the new Bioware will surpass the one...
@Sonic1881
I was disappointed in Joe on the starfield review. It felt like he got so fed up with playing the game, he stopped playing and took most of the bullet points from other Starfield hate videos. Some of his points were good, but he has some ridiculous points that I saw brought up in other hate videos. A few examples:
The way the random NPC’s look: Yes, they are hideous abominations, but that is the clear result of using procedural generation to m...
Im suprised you didnt get downvoted. Must have slipped the radar
Angry Joe gave Hogwarts legacy a higher score than Baldurs Gate 3. I cant take him as seriously as I used to.
And it will be played for months and years, people just took liberties with what that means. It doesn’t really matter if people stop playing though, because its not a live service or a game that depends on player engagement . Todd and crew just wanted another game to keep people busy because we are probably not seeing TES 6 until 2050

Nobody cares about Starfield, yet it is still the talk of the town. Make it make sense mate. And yes, there objectively is biased. Had countless people in videos and comments sections talking about how Starfield lost a large number of its player base, and when I stated that people just moved on, I was accused of huffing copium. Then Palworld dropped its player base, and everyone just kind of got amnesia about calling out starfield for the same thing.
@Mr Cheese
Rant inbound. Dont blame you for not reading.
I honestly think their notoriety with the engine is here-say sprinkled with a bit of confirmation bias over the years. For example from a typical naysayer: “Bethesda games have lousy performance and their gameplay is outdated, therefore their engine must be outdated.”
There was one journalist/Youtuber that mentioned something interesting. He was breaking down the negativity behin...
@Mr_Cheese People keep saying the engine is outdated, even though other engines have built upon past iterations. I think it would be more accurate to say that the engine does not do what you expect to see from a “current gen” game. Red Dead 2 was cool, but its not packing as many systems and permutations as Starfield. People make flimsy comparisons too often: “Look what this open world game can do with its visuals and presentation. Whats Bethesdas excuse?”
Yes, look at what...
Its not BS. This games running more systems than virtually any AAA game. Why else do you think it has loading screens? Besides, the clutter has been apart of their DNA for decades at this point. There are other games out there for people that dont care about that kind of stuff.
Get downvoted for liking the game. Get downvoted for existing. 😂
Depends on what you deem as quality. Suicide squd is understandable to be in the thumbnail, but for me, Starfield was great and has quality in its own strange way. But its a sly way to get views… and it worked.
