Maybe not my cup of tea. The game is just boring. All the planets seem empty and dead. Maybe I had the wrong expectations. I was hoping for skyrim in space but it seems more like a empty fallout in space.

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!

Some of Starfield’s planets are meant to be empty by design - but that's not boring. “When the astronauts went to the moon, there was nothing there. They certainly weren't bored." The intention of Starfield's exploration is to evoke a feeling of smallness in players and make you feel overwhelmed. You can continue to explore and find worlds that do have resources you need or hidden outposts to look through.

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

Thanks again and we hope you return to your journey through space soon!

Warm regards,
Bethesda Customer Support

The astronauts went to one moon, not forty.

Bethesda just blamed a customer for their game being boring. Galaxy brained takes. Especially when so many people have been making the same complaints. This is next level.

Whatever Bethesda_Kraken is smoking, it's rotting their brain.
The Moon wasn't boring because the astronauts had a mission to do when they got there and actual stakes involved in doing so. On top of that, they also went to the moon for a different purpose than a player visits planets in the game.

What a smooth-brained, hand-in-butt muppet response from a dev, it's mind boggling.
