I have enjoyed Starfield and was part of the hype train. I went through NG+ 10 times to maximize my character and the highest possible difficulty, and even played through the DLC.
I think it has very good tech. The NPCs are very expressive, you can see every muscle and wrinkle in their face contort, no other game that doesn’t face-scan can do this. The system also has a genius and unadvertised global planetary rotation system to simulate solar eclipses almost-accurately, like, you can see what a solar eclipse would look like on a planet with a satellite that’s closer or further than our moon, and it’s real interesting. The main quest isn’t baseless bullshit either, it revolves around a very important tech that made spacefaring possible, and it’s both genius and thought-provoking, I can’t think of any other game that made me ponder about these types of topics.
I’m still upset that we still have to deal with 1000 planets that are entirely procedurally generated instead of sticking with the original 24-star system. Nothing will ever fix this, it makes exploring planets worthless. I only drop on moons surrounding gas or ice giants or habitable planets to take cool picture of the vista, I don’t like looking at biologically fucked-up creatures.
