I didn't find it boring, in fact I enjoyed it a lot. But once you finish all the main+side quests and maybe try out new game + a couple times there's not really any reason to continue. They need to really work at making the planets and their pre-fab buildings more diverse. I can understand it if the structures themselves are pre-fabs based on templates, but having the exact same layout down to dead bodies and storage containers was really bad. Fix that and add in a survival mode that makes resource gathering necessary, and let the modders fill in the gaps with new quests and locations and I'll be back. But probably not for a couple years.
Why is it important that this game be declared bad? It seems so odd that articles about a game's steam reviews get attention. It's like there's a group of people that are dying to say 'I told you so' but no one outside the group really cares.
It's not about Starfield specifically. It is about the people who have seen Bethesda for what they are and have constantly told people to temper their expectations only for them to be ignored.
We want the industry to change. We want games to be released mostly bug free and with engaging content. We want people to stop hyping up games where all signs point to it being subpar. We want people to stop feeding the machine before it even gives you anything.
NG+ was a pretty big disappointment. There are a couple of dialogue choices which reference [Starborn] but for the most part you have to play questlines all over again as if you weren't Starborn at all. Seriously, I've lived through this situation seven times already - why can't I cut to the fucking chase that I know exists.
