I have given this game a fair chance. Maybe 8-10 hours of gameplay. But I can't go on. This game is really bad. It's just so dull. I feel like I'm at someone's wake. It's overly reliant on shooting but the shooting feels so bad. Especially laser weapons. The projectile look so weird.
Haven't played yet and definitely don't plan on purchasing it at full price but I had a hint that it might be over hyped when I saw someone post a negative review and everyone in the comments told him to "go back to playing CoD." Seems like a lot of people frothing over this game never played NMS and I can guarantee this game won't have nearly as much added free content as NMS either. I'm okay with admitting that I like a game just cause it's fun to look at and that's what Starfield seems like it is, but you're out of your mind if you think I'm paying $70 for that.
I think a lot of fans are trying to convince themselves that their favorite AAA game studios are still making bangers and they're not.
