How did you get around how empty the game is? I played a few hours but it is just so empty. Being in a city just means either quick travelling or walking through 100s of meters without any interesting npc or anything at all. I felt skyrim did it much better.
Most people have talked about how empty things are by talking about the planets. I feel like that part feels too full if anything. They aren't empty enough to give it character. The same goes for almost every other locations. They're so full of junk that they're empty of character.
I played hundreds of hours of Elite Dangerous, Starfield is crowded by comparison. The universe is mostly empty and I don't mind that in a game.
Do what? Anytime I've walked through a new city I immediately get bogged down with side quests from every other NPC.
