I played for 75 hours because I needed the dopamine fix. Looking back its a boring story, in a boring world.

Also I CANNOT get over the one mission I thought would be awesome. Finding a ship launched from earth 200 years earlier with the offspring of the original crew finally finding humanity... and they have the same computers with the same operating system on their ship as the rest of the universe. WHY WHY WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

*little update*

Yes I too find it funny that Bethesda AI bot thinks that after 75 hours I wouldnt know about smuggling, outposts, starship customization... yes i've done those absolutely dull and mostly pointless activities. Just cause there are a thousand boring planets to visit, doesnt mean I want to visit them.

Hi,
We appreciate you taking the time to provide your review and sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your time in Starfield.
If you feel that things are getting boring, there is so much more to do than just the main mission! There are many side missions where you can learn more about the people and story of Starfield. You can take time to explore various planets for resources and items. Break the law by smuggling and selling contraband. Build your own Outposts and Starships and customize them to your enjoyment. There are many things to do and you can visit our Discord for further ideas from other players: https://beth.games/3F1Jb0W
Starfield is an RPG with hundreds of hours of quests to complete and characters to meet. Most quests will also vary on your character’s skills and decisions, massively changing the outcome of your playthrough. Try creating different characters with backgrounds and characteristics that clash or are oppositive of your previous character. You will feel like you are playing a totally different game. Put points in different skills from a character you’ve previously created, and you are now faced with completely different decisions to make and difficulties to encounter. There are so many layers to Starfield, that you will find things you’ve never knew were possible after playing for hundreds of hours.
Even after completing the Main Story, your adventure doesn’t end! You can continue onto New Game+ to keep exploring Starfield and all that is out there!

Warm regards,

I laughed very, very, hard at "You will feel like you are playing a totally different game."

Still can’t believe Bethesda thought replying was a good idea

The ship you can explain with lore, no problem. "Oh they just added the grav drive to the old ships". and they only needed to make small tweaks to plug on the grav drive.

My problem is that many planets have retextured life forms. Like how many times did I see the mantis looking thing on different planets from different star systems? And why do a lot of planets have Earth like trees? What are the odds they all evolved to look alike?

@Bethesda_FalcoYamaoka I'm glad I pirated this poo pile of a sad excuse for a "game." Your company doesn't deserve a cent.

"Even after completing the Main Story, your adventure doesn’t end! You can continue onto New Game+ to keep exploring Starfield and all that is out there!"

Actually it does, because it's just the same quests again and again each NG+, with only a few rare worlds with different members of Constellation that you might get here and there. So thanks for the straight up lie Bethesda, ya love to see it.

That dev post is crazy,

"Most quests will also vary on your character’s skills and decisions, massively changing the outcome of your playthrough. Try creating different characters with backgrounds and characteristics that clash or are oppositive of your previous character. You will feel like you are playing a totally different game."

It is possible to lie even more ? The only Bethesda game that support that description is Fallout : New Vegas who was only EDITED by Bethesda and was sabotaged by Todd howards constantly because he is the cliché definition of a childish looser.

If you buy a Bethesda game, ANY BETHESDA GAME, after Fallout4 Vr (€60 for a few 100 MBs mod) and Fallout 76, it's unfortunately your own fault.

They are a scummy rip off company producing pure sh*t for a premium price and modders have to fix their god awful final boring af product (I have thousands of hours clocked up in Fallout 4, but I had to spend weeks creating a 300+ mod stable build to be able to play some semblance of an interesting and difficult game) Thank god for modders, the great unsung heroes

Bethesda and EA, if you buy anything from them, ANYTHING, it's self inflicted misery.

You can thumbs down the developer by not buying any more of their products and watching them slowly get laid off.
