I just don’t understand what people were expecting. I expected Skyrim in Space and got that. Expecting a true space sim on top of that? That’s an entirely different ask. I’ve got E:D and NMS if I want to spend hours hopping from one system to the next and deal with space physics. But if I want a story, Starfield is delivering for me.
It is so space skyrim and i'm at 70 hours in. It's almost like space Daggerfall with all the procedural encounters. I've even warmed up to planetary exploration somewhat.
