That’s fair, but also, the fact that it has procedural generation should not be a surprise to anyone at this point, they were very open about it.

I’m just hoping there’s an easy way to distinguish in game between the procedural stuff that’s not worth exploring and the stuff that is. I’m hoping it can be safely ignored, but it WILL be annoying if they hide really interesting questlines on otherwise barren planets.

There’s quite a wide range of reviews. I tend to trust the ones who talk about how much fun the side content and faction quests a lot more than I trust the ones that were underwhelmed by the main questline. I’ve been playing these games since Oblivion and the only main questline I ever finished was Fallout NV.

Not really the same type of game at all. Elite is a fun simulation but there’s essentially no story.

In the same way, I’m sure the space combat will be fun in Starfield, with essentially no depth.

All of the most positive reviews I’ve read have been at 80+ hours. Still finding new things to do, which is a good sign.

Docking point for subjective things is weird to me as well. “I wanted a minimap!”

This reviewer also went right into NG+ after finishing the main story. I guess play how you want, but that feels deeply wrong to me.

Yeah I watched that. It was almost all dev talk, some views on the major city, and some promises. I meant like, I haven’t seen ANY impressions from outside the company that made the game.

But yeah, review embargo is up so let’s see

Being downvoted for sense. What a world.

Man I wish I could even get a consistent impression out of anyone. I’ve been scrounging for pre-release footage but Beth is being weirdly tight lipped about this one.

100% a wait for the reviews situation, the less they show off the more I worry they’re hiding something. Just a reminder to everyone, Fallout 76 was the last game they released…
