    I haven’t played Starfield myself, but from my understanding the gameplay is: Skyrim in space. Which to me, is “Most recycled gameplay”

      It’s innovative in that they looked at the resource scanning in ME3, settlements in FO4, and romance in practically any game that has romance, and they said, “let’s put all of that in this game, but kind of pointless and more annoying to do.” I actually enjoyed a lot of the game but I’m pretty sure people voting were either bots or trolls.

      Essentially. That category must have been a troll by the steam community.

      Even today Skyrim is a better game than Starfield. It’s the same formula Bethesda have been doing for 20 years now but they somehow managed to make the world feel more artificial and lifeless. And So. Many. Loading screens. 😔

      Nothing against the core Bethesda formula - I still enjoy the whole “explore, run into shit, and spend the next 30 hours on side quests” - but they really need to focus on making a more rich and engaging experience.
