Which for me is absolutely fine. I’d much rather spend my time doing quests in detailed cities and occasionally going out to explore over the painfully empty universe of NMS. And I love NMS just for difference reasons. NMS is like a relaxing sandbox game for me, but Mass Effect and Starfield brings the characters, story, worldbuilding, quests, factions.

Apple to oranges then?

I agree with both of you. I was hoping Starfield would be a mix of both, but sadly, it isn't

Exactly! The problem comes when you overpromise and overhype stuff and then don’t deliver on that front - which is a shame.

And yes, you really can’t compare NMS and starfield, as you mentioned.
