Looks like CE has largely predicted it right so far.

Final Fantasy 16 gets an 88 on opencritic = GOTY material

Starfield gets an 87 = Trash!
FWIW, I liked Final Fantasy XVI, but it was heavily flawed, IMO, and I think Starfield looks good, and I'd cop if I had an Xbox.

The combat is garbage (though space combat is getting better each update) and doesn't really have RPG quests or anything like that. It is certainly cool flying into planet atmospheres and hopping out to explore though.

How do you spend years working on a game and not manage a decent map system. Just steal from BotW if you have to.

It's Bethesda. They probably cobbled the whole thing together from old Skyrim and Fallout code.

They could have turned map acquisition for every planet into like 5-10 hours of added gameplay.

Is this a post-Baldur's Gate 3 type reaction?

They picked a really bad time to release this game.

They were too arrogant. They probably thought they had nothing to fear from Larian. They assumed that people would blindly buy Starfield just on the Bethesda brand name

Great side quests, horrid main quest.
Ok, that sound's like the standard Beth.

Sort of interesting that they bothered to point out that combat was one of the positives, since that tends to be Beth's weak point.

I wonder if Fallout 4 style is going to become the default for Beth.
Relatively light on rpg but heavy on gunplay.

The barren randomly generated planets seem like such a waste of dev time from what I've seen. There seems to be no real reason to even engage with that part of the game.

From the ACG review, they say they're great for base building.
