Once you actually get down onto a planet, there’s not much to see or do aside from collect materials, and every planet has a boundary limit, which once again disappointed fans who were expecting something akin toNo Man’s Sky.
Now, after less than two weeks with the game,Starfieldfans are confident that the game is a 7/10 at best, as reflected through the latestSteamreviews.
At the time of writing,Starfield’sSteam page includes a “mostly positive” rating, with 38,758 user reviews. Only 77% have recommended the game, a stark contrast toFallout4andThe Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, which both sit at 83% and 94% respectively.
Metacritic is even worse, which is currently beingbombarded with review bombsstating the game is nothing like what Bethesda’s marketing had us believing, and dramatically pulled its user score down to 5/10 on certain platforms.

While many are enjoying the game and praising the story, starship customisation and essentially being a Fallout game in space,Starfieldcan’t seem to shake the negativity. There is the possibility that its problems will be ironed out over time through post-launch updates, and a bit of elbow-grease from modders, but so far it seemsStarfieldhas failed to impress a core part of the Bethesda fanbase.
Starfieldcan currently be played on Xbox Series X/S and PC.
