It says below that hyperbolic headline: “Starfield is a sweeping, exploration-filled RPG from Bethesda, true to the Skyrim and Fallout model, but there’s nowhere else to go with this kind of videogame.”

Of course there is, the writer of this suffers from extreme lack of imagination. What I wanted in Starfield was a galaxy like Elite Dangerous, management and building like X4 Foundations, and the RPG gameplay and storytelling of Bethesda. Instead we got an attractive space part that really is all smoke and mirrors, but the gameplay is still lots of fun despite not being a good space sim.
