Skyrim in space, that's all I wanted from Starfield, but then I heard it's not Skyrim, it's something else, and maybe not as good. Anyways, it's kind of a game that I would try myself, no matter what the reviewers say. It's nice to see that there are people who are enjoying it for 100+ hours. Hopefully all the QoL releases by the time I get around to it, will make it much better.
Thanks for the details!
You heard correctly. The biggest thing about Bethesda games has always been exploration, and Starfield utterly fails at it. There are things to enjoy about Starfield, but not the one thing Bethesda is known best for.
The reason I said Skyrim or Fallout 4 was not to invoke exploration, but all the typical trappings of a Bethesda game, the quests, the engine, the mechanics that are sort of vaguely interesting but don't always hang together well, etc.
Oh yeah, the worst things about Bethesda games are there in spades! That said, I got some enjoyment out of it - the NASA museum part was particularly well-done.
