Oh, I see why they aren't showing more gameplay.

This game looks like total ass.

I feel like the industry is collectively just pushing that Starfield "is the next big thing", it "matters", and it's just another Bethesda RPG that's going to launch pretty buggy and have a bunch of problems.

But the people who pray at that alter will still see it as the second coming. It doesn't matter if it's completely mid or just pretty good.

And some people are open about it! Gene Park outright stated it before he started his review copy, saying it doesn't even matter if the game is bad, it will still be the most important game in the entire industry for years.

It just rubs me the wrong way. Of course I'm absolutely biased, I don't like any of the games these people make, but even if I did I feel like the type of push and assumed success this game has would bother me. It's like when Disney made all those cutouts for retailers about how Ralph Breaks the Internet won Best Animated Featue and then it lost.
