Playing through this entire game in one sitting at 3 in the morning was very good for my mental health.

My favorite genre of video game is misery.

Who knew that releasing a good expansion was what was gonna finally kill the game. Thank you Destiny 2, you have been full of surprises.

Please Sean you dont have to keep making these free updates please you have redeemed yourself please Sean.

The expansion was so good it made me forget Destiny is a endlessly repeating skinner box for a little bit until I started doing the new seaso-. Eh sorry, "episode".

I love being an elite expendable force.

I'm sorry Eleon, but you posted cringe.

Evolved from small femboy cat to tall femboy rabbit.

That's character growth baby.

So Starfield finally came out and had the mixed reception I expected it too. I personally have been having a pretty fun time playing the game. But it definitely isn't revolutionary. If the review is TLDR its a good game, just not the revolutionary masterpiece that I think some were expecting. Pretty much wait for a sale is what I'm saying.

For the most part what you can expect from the game is your usual Bethesda gameplay loop. You go talk around a city for a bit to pick up quests, do some questlines, get some loot, tell your companion to carry all your loot, somehow still get overweight, and head back to a city to sell, or if your feeling like even more of a hoarder take it back to one of your outposts to store. Shooting is also pretty much the same as Fallout 4 but i will say it does feel improved. Its a bit more snappy and the guns feel pretty good to shoot. It plays almost exactly like fallout 4 just with some minor QoL here and there.

Speaking of QoL it's pretty inconsistent. They definitely improved some things from Fallout 4 when it comes to shooting and the base mechanics, but then just forget to add an FOV or gamma slider in the settings? I can't really say it bothered me that much during my playthrough but its still is really weird that those settings are just absent. As for bugs i have encountered a few, but none game breaking, just your usual Bethesda jank.

The questlines are pretty standard for Bethesda. If your expecting BG3 level of depth, choice, and writing to these quests your are sorely mistaken. These quests are pretty linear except for a few choices here and there, and the writing is usually passable... usually. They are a pretty good romp through space but that's about it. Don't expect much to really roleplay either, most choices just devolve to "Do I feel like being an ass today?" At least the silent protagonist is back so you know exactly what your saying.

Character building is again pretty much just like Fallout 4 except with some nice little badges and this time little challenges that range from "Kill 20 enemies with laser gun" to "Run out of stamina 5 times". I will say there is one issue I have noticed where a lot of the games mechanics like crafting, base building, and ship building, have stuff locked behind the science and tech skill trees. If you plan to do any of those you are basically forced to level those trees to fully unlock the mechanics of them, which is a little annoying if your trying to build into a more combat focused character, and still want to do those things. The remedy is that there is no level cap or limit to how many skill points you can get, so I guess just build to what you want to do the soonest.

So with the core gameplay pretty much just being Fallout 4, how does the space aspect fair since that seems to be the major selling point? Well I think this is what is probably gonna dissapoint most people. Space in this game is just a backdrop. You do most of your space travel via fast traveling on the galaxy map. Sure you can technically hop into your ship and do it, but then your just doing the same thing except with cutscenes in-between. It's pretty unfortunate the game is set up this way as there are actually quite a lot of good random encounters in space that most probably will never see cause there just isn't much reason to go to space. This kinda also invalidates the ship builder as 60 hours in i have barely felt the need to touch it. Sure its cool but I'm barely ever in my ship anyway. I do still reccomend stopping to upgrade at least the weapons though as there are times in some quests where you will need to do some ship combat.

The planets can be pretty cool and look beautiful but almost all locations are procedurally generated. If you hated that aspect of No Man's Sky then you will hate it here. The planets themselves are usually just rocky wastelands. I personally dont mind this as it makes finding a planet with flora and fauna more exciting which I think should be the case for any space game, but if your expecting a bustling universe full of life around every corner than this is not that. It's a fairly realistic take on space, for better or for worse depending on who you ask.

Overall, I do still think it is a good game as I have personally been playing the absolute ♥♥♥♥ out of this game, it's rare for a game to hook me this hard where even when I'm doing something else all i can think is "I wanna play Starfield". If you enjoyed other Bethesda games you will probably enjoy this one.

However for those expecting the same level of roleplay and replayability as Baldur's Gate 3, the exploration of No Man's Sky, or the mechanical depth of Star Citizen. Then this game will not satisfy you I'm afraid. It is a Bethesda game through and through, for better or for worse. I think this game's biggest crime is being a pretty good game being marketed as the game of all games. Whether that's a fault of the marketing or the audience as a whole I'm not here to say. It's Fallout 4 in space, nothing more, nothing less.
