    I’m willing to bet that you’ve never actually played Starfield, you’re just parrotting what others have complained about.

    Does Starfield have problems? Yes. But anyone who goes “hurr durr ancient engine” clearly hasn’t played a Bethesda game since Skyrim

      Nope. Sorry if you need copium, but I played about 50 hours. It got really boring because planets are generally empty. Combat is OK, but not special.

      There really needed to be improvements to flight. As it stands, you can’t even walk around your own ship while it’s underway. And that, as I said, is because of the Creation engine. It’s just not acceptable for a modern game. Bethesda knows this, they’re just milking what’s left.

      Is it the worst game ever made? Not by a longshot. But it’s not a good one either.

      PS- and if you like the game, great. That’s the cool thing about opinions. Everyone can have their own.

        As it stands, you can’t even walk around your own ship while it’s underway.

        I dare you to list 3 game engines that actually can handle that, while still having other ships and obstacles rendered outside of the player’s craft while the player is outside of the pilot’s seat

          I dare you to stop stumping for Bethesda.
