They certainly were huffing moon dust or something if they were equating the development of Starfield to the astronauts missions to the Moon.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Seems mixed. There's plenty of people just getting lost in the game and really enjoying it, others are not. The most prominent complaint is that 90% of the planets of the game have literally nothing in them.

As a space game, it's a 2/10 maybe. It's not really a space game but more like a planet game with some space exploration, if even.

Outside of that, it's a Bethesda RPG, so it'll depend on how much you like that aspect of it

Metroid Prime let us scan random rocks and features in addition to the various plant life forms that sometimes wanted to kill us and the animal forms that more frequently wanted to.

Want to make a world interesting without life, give us at least the level of the non-enemy scanning from back when the Gamecube was a thing.

Seriously, if you just gave people a scan visor and random information that makes sense randomly on non-life planets, can you imagine how much people would rave about it?!

Edit typo.

The dialogue is so dull. There hasn't been a single character or anything that has stood out to me.

I find myself skipping dialogue way more often than their other games. It's just a bland world.

They weren't bored because they were too busy hoping they survived.

If people want meaningful space exploration, they need to play Outer Wilds.

Yeah the planets aren't huge but that's a good thing because every single one of them is unique and handcrafted. The game manages to be fun without combat. Every aspect of environment has a interesting way to approach them.

Everyone says the best way to experience the game is to just jump into it, and the less you know about it the better because the discovery about it is the best part. So spoilers for one planet: there's a double planet that acts like an hourglass. The sand is drained off one planet and ciphon to the other which has caverns in it and you can only explore them when the sand is on the other planet.

I haven't messed with it myself but doesn't it have scanning? That's a goal for exploring planets if you want to. You have a bunch of aliens and plants to scan for a checklist. No idea if you get descriptions though.

No. All you get is temperment, biomes its found in and a couple ultra basic things like that.

No compendium/bestiary. No lore/flavor text or anything.

Its a huge miss.

For me it's the game running like shit. And in this day and age, oh and this is coming from a bethesda team as well, the game has no goddam fov slider.

Like what the actual fuck.

Agreed. Outer Wilds is fantastic, but it's also to be expected that it can pull that off much better than Starfield could. It's significantly smaller. I think when Bethesda mentioned the scope of this game it was going to obviously be lacking in some areas. The fact that space itself seems to be not really worth exploring seems way more egregious to me than many of the planets not being fulfilling to explore.

Could've been worse if MS didn't force BGS to delay the launch.

Yeah that's another gem.
People digging into the files are saying it's a mess in there among other issues like with how they render environments, it's all backwards and unoptimized. They had better methods before but decided not to use them for whatever reasons and opted for extremely less efficient ways here.

The whole game is almost like Downtown Boston in Fallout 4 if anyone remembers what a goddamn disaster that place was and still is to some extent. A mod fixed it but didn't come out for a long time.

Yeah I actually just built a PC which is going to fall into their desired specs with a 7800x3d and a 7900xtx. But it sounds like Nvidia cards are not able to keep up unless it's a 4090
