It feels like when Fallout 3, 4 and Skyrim came out you couldn't escape people posting about them for weeks, especially with Skyrim. Now the most I've seen are complaints about how disappointing Starfield was.
Is the game that much blander or does Internet culture just move on that much faster these days? On the other hand, I do feel like there was a lot more enthusiasm for other games like Elden Ring, and sometimes you get an Among Us that just completely take over the Internet.
I've been busy so I haven't played too much of it but so far my main thing is that there is WAY too much fast traveling. You need it to go anywhere and it takes so much wind out of the games sails. I really cannot believe Microsoft has staked this entire console generation on it
