Some of Starfield’s planets are meant to be empty by design - but that’s not boring, Bethesda insists

I spent 20 hours exploring one solar system alone. Yea some planets are empty. Not many though. The complaints so far are really shallow.
Man you can spend so much time digging through a base to find neat shit and story
shallow isn't what I'd call these complaints, I'd call them childish. I'm having a ton of fun
Right? There's so effing much to do. I'm about to dive into building my first outpost and I've already put in 30 hours into the game in the first 3 star systems without tackling more than a couple side quests. Doing the alben quest line right now and it's so much fun.
Someone said go play NMS because it's better? Ffs no it's not.
I don't get any of the complaints yet. Except for the local map. Wtf were they thinking. I thought it was a bug. And maybe the item menus. I need to see more.

I've heard this phrase, or iterations of it, so many times over the years, especially in regards to space games, that I'm convinced the people spewing it constantly have absolutely no idea what a deep space game actually is. I think they're just there to complain regardless of how much depth there is.
Yeah.. People are complaining about features of a game they already knew existed.
The people having fun aren't the ones writing these knee-jerk critiques. They're the ones engrossed in the game atm and their opinions will be better reflected once they're done.
There's a lot of reason for the haters to hate on this one. Bethesda game, no space travel like NMS, no PS5 release. All things which were either a given or should have otherwise been obvious, but still, clicks are clicks and so any reason to hate is reason enough.
