    Fantastic RPG, very flawed space exploration

    I love this game. Its quests are where this game shines. Its hand crafted locations and stories are why you should play this game. Do NOT get this game for its space exploration as its very limited. This is not No Mans Sky. This is a Bethesda game with space as its backdrop.

    Not My Cup of Tea

    Having never played a Bethesda game, this one was tough to start on. It took me about 45 hours to beat this, and I was able to wander a bit — but it didn’t sweep me away like others are saying it did. I had to put combat on easy — I had problems finding ammo, but honestly just wasn’t interested in combat in this game. I wanted to explore, and unfortunately I didn’t find exploration terribly rewarding. The concept of limiting my inventory based on weight is just a strange restriction to incorporate into a video game — I’m lucky enough not to have come across this feature until this game. It became all I thought about. Otherwise, the game looked and played to me like a game that was released 10 years ago. Everything feels squishy and light — there’s no weight or sense of impact while walking around or fighting. Base building and shot building were things I was excited about, but was just never able to figure out even after watching YouTube videos for instruction. Overall, not my cup of tea — but I’m glad others are enjoying it.

    Starfield on the Xbox Series X is a mesmerizing journey through the cosmos that fulfills the dreams of any space enthusiast and RPG fan. With its stunning graphics, captivating exploration, rich storytelling, and endless customization options, it’s a game that’s bound to keep players engaged for countless hours. Despite a few minor hiccups, Starfield is a true gem in the Xbox Series X And I really enjoyed it..100% will recommend it to anyone and I rarely play Xbox Games but definitely a must have

    Excellent idea but disappointing

    Want to play a game where you can visit what seems like unlimited planets? You can with Starfield! However, most planets are empty! Want to explore the planets anyway? Can with Starfield? However, you have to run around on foot on the planets and have no vehicles. Most of the game is running around, fast travel, watching take-off and landing cutscenes, and some missions but the plain story. It's a lot like Fallout minus the fun and customizing your starship and using it but you mostly stay stationary in one place and don't get to fly through the galaxy. The idea of Starfield was great but it just failed in delivery.

    Boring

    It was like a mix between Mass Effect and No Mans Sky except not fun. The menus and navigation seem like an afterthought making them unnecessarily complex and unintuitive. Combat was fun but there is a whole lot of other dull stuff that seems tacked on without much purpose.
