So did Starfield become the next big thing?
So did Starfield become the next big thing?
It feels like when Fallout 3, 4 and Skyrim came out you couldn't escape people posting about them for weeks, especially with Skyrim. Now the most I've seen are complaints about how disappointing Starfield was.
Is the game that much blander or does Internet culture just move on that much faster these days? On the other hand, I do feel like there was a lot more enthusiasm for other games like Elden Ring, and sometimes you get an Among Us that just completely take over the Internet.

The game is genuinely fucking garbage. I wasn't expecting much since the last genuinely good game Bethesda made has been 20 years ago, but damn even for their standards Starfield feels ridiculously undercooked and half-assed. Their take on sci-fi might be the most boring one imaginable and (besides the actually somewhat fun starship customization) there is just nothing in this game you don't get in a better version in their other games, with especially the randomly generated planets being incredibly boring. I might write something longer about the game at some point because the sheer lack of imagination this game represents really is quite astonishing.
The most damning indictment of Starfield is just putting it against Skyrim, which I personally think is pretty trash and is only saved by community modding, and Starfield doesn't even held up, it's actually sad
