I didn't play starfield but watched around 2 hours of gameplay. The story was kinda nonsense, the gameplay I can respect but I know it wouldn't be for me. Like everyone says it's fallout in space, but it seems like it takes itself much more serious
With how many call backs, jokes and references I've seen in the main plot: it doesn't take itself too seriously. Half of the jokes have been directly related to the lack of dialogue options and having a silent protagonist.
I wish it took itself more serious. It's tongue in cheek non stop but the jokes rarely land.
Fully agree. Lots of jokes; they're not very funny, tho. IDK... Maybe it will get more interesting the further I get. I still wanna check out Neon (the cyberpunk city) and do deep space exploration (can't even get out there yet). I've been to a museum ran by the Starship Troopers faction that gives a ton of exposition on the lore and it was a chore to stay awake through all that.
It's "fallout in space" but without the stuff that makes fallout good.
"fallout in space but without the stuff that makes fallout good."
So Fallout 4 in space.
