Adam and Michael discuss Bethesda's Starfield, a game that arguably had as much hype as No Man Sky in the year leading up to its release. Did it make its mark or did it die a cold death in space? Only you can decide. And I guess Michael and Adam have their takes. You know, it’s a podcast.

I heavily defended and believed in Bethesda until Fallout 76. I called Starfield being a glorified Fallout/NMS ripoff since about a year before release. I'm glad to see that other people who used to have just as much love for this company and even this game style feel exactly the way i do about this dumpster fire. <3 you guys, im gonna be sharing this like crazy. All my fellow gaming friends really need to hear this, especially considering i see people still vehemently try to defend this POS.

Man, I really felt this episode. I was also so excited and I kept trying to give the game chances it didn’t deserve. I stopped playing since the patch broke all the mods I used, and I just haven’t played it since. I’ll check back after the DLC is on discount and the modders worked their magic. Maybe it will have its own forgotten city or Enderal. Also, I was also an Escape Velocity kid. I still play it sometimes as a total conversion of EV:Nova. I keep looking for the game that will capture the feeling child me felt when I first played EV, but starfield isn’t it.

I've put an easy 4000 hours in across fallout 1-4, elder scrolls 3-5, majority of my time is split between New Vegas, Morrowind and Skyrim. I can't get into starfield. and it runs really poorly on my relatively brand new gaming pc. uninstalled starfield already, maybe put 25 hours in and I don't even know if the modding community is going to waste their time on it based on a developers recent post (Skyrim together dev). Incredibly disappointed, like at least fallout 76 got me a little bit hooked before I got sick of it.

Bit late to the party with this one but I felt the need to say I wholeheartedly agree with basically every point both of you make here (which is a first!) I was obviously skeptical going in but I really did want to enjoy Starfield - I put decent hours in … really gave it a chance. Alas, never have I felt a game lacking respect for my time like this. I uninstalled the second time they made me float after the glitter blobs. Hey, at least I got to enjoy the catharsis of this review! Keep up the good work folks.

Man. I had the same experience. Thought it was super cool at first, and haven't touched it in months. Would've much preferred if they just kept it to our solar system, and left in all the survival stuff. Give me 20 different smaller actual open worlds instead of a shitload of mechanically identical worlds with different skins and parameters. (or hell, stick with the proc gen stuff but make it believable and not just copy/paste structures and events). The modding community is going to likely breath fresh life into the game, which is when I'll come back. My hope is that they learn a lot from this release and iterate on the IP. There's a lot of potential, but this was all scope and no soul.
