Recent Reviews: 41% (Mixed)

[Time Traveler]

That happened faster than I had expected. All I can say is, nobody wins from this. Haters and fans still have a poor product that made suckers out of all of us. If you love the game, good for you! But the fact is we all got served a game worthy of its negative reviews and something that should have been so much better. Hopefully BGS fixes this mess.

Congratulations Todd, your 2023 "X-Box GOTY" is about as popular as you. Truly, an "innovative" masterpiece!

EDIT: I finally updated the Recent Reviews percentage. I'll do it again if needed. I think mixed is good place for this game; it's definitely not the worst game out there but it is certainly not what I would consider a "good" game either.

The smart kids knew it day 1 .. The other kids are just catching up..

We should all strive to not be the other kid

Yeah I just checked it says Mostly negative reviews... The game is bad and its a shame that we had to wait almost 10 years for this... Now we gotta wait another 10 years for another bad game? Its just a huge let down... Don't make a space game if you can't handle doing it right. They should of just made Fallout 5 or anything really than this disaster of a game. Now they're blocking free mods trying to put everything into a paid system while at the same time releasing garbage games.. The Devs that made Skyrim are gone and their new hires have no talent obviously. I hate to say it but this studio might be done unless they somehow do something drastically different than they're doing now. They got lucky they're still riding off the backs of the Skyrim devs but now they wont get that pass next time. I also don't know if its the devs fault or leadership but something needs to change.

Recent review fluctuate all the time lol, this is just reflecting the review bombing when Betheseda answering reviews went viral, Emil crying and the nakey jakey vid. Itll go back to normal in Jan when they get filtered out over time. tldr, recent reviews meaning nothing.

EDIT: Its a review bomb, anyone with an IQ above room temp can look at the dates with the negative spikes and cross referenced with news that went viral. Same days lol.

For starfield, negative is the new normal, get used to it

[Alenfal]

Oof. When's the next out-of-touch PR piece?

[GoldInfinit7]

I know the haters will celebrate this as some sort of victory, but this isn't an election, and the percentage does not represent how good a game is.

The majority of those who left reviews liked the game. At least 50,000 people liked this game.

Who knows where the disconnect is but the scope of my comment here is not to speculate. A lot of people like this game and they will continue to like this game. And based on the majority liking this game, there are a lot of satisfied customers.

Despite everything, this game is very popular despite the hate and that is what matters in terms of sales.

You guys keep claiming it's a review bomb yet provide zero proof.

It's not a review bomb when this game has 1000% more positive reviews than negatives on the first week, but it is a review bomb when over time the shares of reviews trend to mostly negative? If this game was review bombed its more likely that it was positively review bombed inflated at launch by Betheseda paid bots than actual players praising the game

If you like this game that's fine, but most people think it sucks and you just gotta cope and live with it

Considering that it is likely to suck and disappoint most players as well, I think not

I know WHY Bethesda made this game,(they wanted to try something different) but they should have just stuck with making Elder scrolls 6 instead. Its what the People wanted.

Be honest, day 1 the reviews on Steam and media reviews were giving 10/10 before anyone had a chance to play and that was the review multiplier making reviews inaccurate.

As for the real players they had to play for many hours maybe taking a week or month before they seen "The Hammer of Cringe" laid down upon them. There was confusion, questions, dismay, but now the real reviews are coming in.

Its so obvious would think i am making it up, but nope its just home entertainment video game selling by the book. Hype the game, get sales, then try push players to buy another game and get more money.

Starfield isnt supposed to be garbage making everyone look bad though, with the Premium Edition and everything. Would hope more games are not trying to turn a home entertainment hobby into garbage collecting as well.

Also home entertainment video game players settling into a game instead of constantly trying to avoid garbage is a good thing and more relaxing and alot of good things, especially an offline game with a construction kit.

Reviews are still right about 64% positive. Almost 2/3rds. So, folks sayin' "Most people don't like the game" apparently aren't good at math.

[JacEEEBABY]

Wow and before Christmas, What a complete failure. Netflix could do a documentary about it.

Not recently. Maybe when the game first came out.
