It does look rough. Still not anything that is driving me towards separating myself from 70 bucks that can better be spent on something useful in life.
I bought fallout 4 on launch knowing full well what I was getting myself into, because I love post apocalyptic games and even with all of the shit Beth has added to FO, I still enjoy the setting overall, especially since I am familiar in real life with their east coast settings.
Skyrim same, though I consider it an improvement on most all levels to Oblivion. Not a return to whatever form Beth may have had, but enough there to keep me interested for a sitting once in awhile, and much of the modding, dare I say, even makes it enjoyable for me.
Oblivion and FO3 really made me question Bethesdas design direction.
Had no major issues with Morrowind or Daggerfall.
The thing is, with all of those games sans starfield, somewhere in there something was interesting to me, be it the lore of the setting in general, or the exploration.
Starfields setting looks Oblivion generic, and it seems they have actually made exploration worse through a massive shot of viagra to fast travel, the game seems built around it, so I will pass, as the saving graces for me in Beth slop seem to have gone the way of pauldrons in Oblivion.
Even BG3, for all that I see that is driving me away, mostly homo erotic butt secks and stronk womanz, the setting itself has a pull for me to get it. I'm not, not until a deep deep discount, but starfield doesn't even have that for me.
