I genuinely don’t know how anyone who played Starfield could willingly give Bethesda more money for another game. I didn’t even get to the procedurally generated part before quitting.
I also only lasted 5 hours in Diablo 4. I normally play very curated high quality games and finish what I start no matter what, so this was a huge shock to me having two unprecedented flops back to back.
tldr fuck gaming I’m touching grass instead
Starfield wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't great, very mediocre. I bought the limited edition like a fool because I saw the gameplay trailers and thought it looked awesome. I should have expected there would be very little depth to any of the systems.
Fallout 4 and Skyrim are my top played games on Steam by a mile, but I always play heavily modded.
A lot of people who played star field didnt pay for it. It was a game pass day one release, which I took to mean they had no hope it would sell well.
