Feature Lifelong Bethesda Fan Finally Answers: Does Starfield Actually Suck?

A star is unborn

So, I finally played Starfield. For 85 hours, no less. And honestly, just about everything I had read or heard about the game prior to playing turned out to be true. I think Starfield is both an evolution of Bethesda's core game design and a significant downgrade from the studio's established open world structure. In short, I think...
