Yeah those time scales are crazy given the end product. Much of Starfield feels like something a smaller dev could have put together and thrown in early access without nearly as much time. I think generally we are seeing a lot of issues with game design by business committee (and Bethesda’s stupid engine is part of that, too).
Yes! I can’t express how dull I thought it was after all the hype and superlative reviews. So disappointing and so… boring. I won’t bother checking out these updates.
Someone downvoted you, but this is the only way with companies like Bethesda, in a world where the industry is as sketchy as it currently is. Might be worth a purchase in 5 years, once it’s on sale and the community has fixed it for them. Just remember to support modders, too.
I really don’t care about downvotes. I got burned with NMS and opted to only acquire the ‘totally legit’ copies of all games before making a purchase. Also almost all ‘AAA’ titles are blacklisted on my network. I won’t ever buy them or give them money or attention. They have all proven to be garbage bland boring piles of code.
I buy games all the time, but I’ll be damned if I trust 2 hours of playtime to justify a 30-50 purchase. No game is worth more then 50 to me, that’s gets into AAA territory
Wow maybe then it will be half a game
Todd Howard spent 8 years making this game and apparently DECADES thinking about it. Incredible.

I’m quite glad I played the full version demo before spending money on it.
