I somehow entirely missed the hype around this game and came across it again only accidentally on early release day when looking at some other sale on Steam. Been playing it and it seems fine to me in a vague Skyrim-in-space sort of way, which is all what I was expecting from a Bethesda RPG.

The world seems alive enough and there are plenty of side-quests and amusing / interesting things to discover. Now suddenly I have been coming across a bunch of posts everywhere where the game is supposed to be terrible or something. Still seems fine to me, but maybe I have lower standards after decades of gaming. shrug.

Its fallout 4 in space.

But with a worse interface and a lot more menus that are annoying to navigate.

Some mods have attempted to fix the menus.

I'd like to see some complete UI overhauls at some point, but right now I'm using a mod that increases the refresh rate to 120hz from 30 in the menu's

Fallout 4 is a much better FPS. But Starfield is a much, much better RPG.

Eh.. I'm not sure I agree with that statement, but to each their own
