the writing and voice acting are very subpar, maybe little old Baldur’s Gate 3 ruined my game expectations but this is not worth $70 as it is now

Science
"One key scene I experienced underscores the challenge of Bethesda’s technical ambition. My astronaut 'Captain Gene' was witness to an event that defies time and matter, something the human mind may never grasp. It’s the culmination of thousands of years of human achievement and curiosity. Ten paces away from me, his lover, Barrett, had only one thing to say. 'Hey friend, let’s chat sometime, okay?'

I’m sorry, what? I responded to him anyway. He gave me an 'alien sandwich,' and said nothing else."

The next few days are going to be very funny with people melting down over "It's a solid game, really fun, not really GOTY material tho" reviews. I honestly thought it would've been it being Xbox exclusive would've been the kindling tbh

Skyrim is what, top 5 best selling games of all time? Of course they didn't run screaming from it, how many collective hours do the people posting here have in that.

I'll be playing on gamepass and I may actually not be happy with it because I want to do melee/explosives as is my tradition but I haven't seen any of those weapons on any streams yet.

my last two open world games have been RDR2 and Witcher 3 so going back to gamebryo style "npc barrels the camera while one of three voice actors recites words in the order written" is gonna be kinda jarring gotta admit

It's because people look at these games as a sort of "life replacement," so people saying "it's okay I guess" is like insulting their very being

It's like if you were a disembodied soul looking for a physical vessel body, and you finally find a vessel that you think will be perfect. And then when you're about to put yourself into it, lots of people are like "ngl that vessel is pretty mid"

I'm sorry, but it's not. There are only 5 playstyles in "Star Field" and 4 of them involve using an Assault Rifle

the last one is flying the ship

Yeah but it's people mad it's not being reviewed lower too, in fact they seem like the majority. Insane poo poo. Maybe it's just because all the people who were invested in it being rated higher are playing it now, but in my experience gamers find time to complain online, god knows I do.
