So... is it worth it?

[KoDu]

I read a lot of discussion about "Starfield" is sooo bad! Boring, ugly, bad RPG.
And BAM! 88% good reviews in Steam. So... is this game worth to buy?

According to the Steam reviews, yes.
If you want my personal experience, no.

I would give it a 6/10 and without going into too much, it feels dated, rushed and lacks certain elements you'd have expected such as being able to manually land on any planet, anywhere.

In my opinion it is definitely not worth this price tag.

But to each their own.

If you like Bethesda's style, you will probably like Starfield.

If you don't, why are you even here?

IF you are looking for a space sim, then you'll be disappointed.

The game is actually a faster paced but also dumbed down Fallout 4 in space. You're immediately made a member of a super exclusive club. You can even see in the dialogue options when they were still utilising a voiced protagonist. You have 3 variations of 'yes' to a lot of NPCs with the occasional 'no' but there's always one reply reserved as a question.

Nope. For actual content and higher player counts for a cheaper price, get Baldur's Gate 3.

Who gives a ♥♥♥♥ about player count on a solo game? Do you choose your games based on Twitch trends? Jesus.

6/10 for me. Hopefully a big patch is on the horizon. Not reviewing it yet, I'm waiting for a patch and hopefully another nvidia driver. Then we shall see.

Honestly if your on the fence try it on Game Pass or If you don't mind spoilers watch the You-tuber "Oxhorn" who does great coverage of Bethesda games.

I love it personally, it is a great slow game to sit back and just take your time and enjoy.

My personal advice is do not rush the main quest just explore and enjoy a very large Bethesda game. If you liked fallout 4 you should like this.

As a side note, I have seen so much negativity on the forums I have avoided them for a while as I just played the game like a typical Bethsoft game and I have had a blast.

Also mods are starting to drop so the game will get better over time.

Do you like Bethesda Games? Do you like sci-fi settings? If so, yes. It's an improvement in pretty much every regard on their past games.

Both the vast majority of actual reviews by both gamers and critics agree. This is why you don't listen to trolls on a forum who make 20 rage post a day to make it seem their opinion is popular.

[Kronosyo]

yes its worth if you like bethesda games or rpgs in general

[NPC]

you can play it for two hours and return it. But for me perosnally its not what they advertised I felt like. Its not a space game or space sim. your spaceship plays a pretty minimal role and really just acts as a fast travel point if you want it to.

It wasnt for me, its like skyrim or fallout without the open world side to make it feel like an adventure

[𝙀𝙉𝙕𝙇𝙀𝙔³]

Im 65 hours into it and I still haven't accepted the first Story Mission.

To me, that says everything.

you're out of your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mind if this is a dumbed down fallout 4 lol
replay fallout 4, please, that game was far from a rpg
starfield is very barebones as a rpg, but it has a lot more going in terms of roleplaying than fallout 4

[abi-wan-kenobi]

If you enjoy RPGs in general, and especially if you enjoyed Skyrim, Oblivion, the Fallout games, etc. YES. You will love it.

In fact,i think it is great game，i think i will play for more than 500 hours because it isnt so bad and has so many surprises and contents.
Of course many negative reviews also disturbed me a few days ago,but now i find when i calm down and stop paying attention to those noisy sounds, i start to understand that starfield is NASA punk and it is not a wild imagination game that we had too hgih excessive expectations before!
Since i have been playing for more than 20 hours,I think many of its previously thought to be trough points are actually very harmonious with the worldview.

It has all factors that i like in fallout or skyrim. So i hope you love it.

[Victimize]

game runs like ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, wait for fixes then buy on sale, you're not missing out on much right now.

[Bisexual Lion's Pride.tar.bz2]

best game i've played in a while. exoprimal is a close second.
