A 7/10 is basically a complete failure, so why didn’t reviewers take my feelings into account before publishing their scores?

Beautiful. I’m playing it now and gotta say, I hate everyone who has talked about it up until now. From the die-hard fanboys who say it has to be the best game ever created, to the anti-bethesda circlejerkers who roam every gaming community telling people how it’s a terrible game even though they have not played it.
I’m tired of everyone and their opinions about gaming. I bought it with mid expectations, and I am happy with my purchase.
incredibly based
Same. I know game reviews have been getting worse lately, but the whole discourse around Starfield feels particularly terrible.
I think it’s pretty good so far. I wish it were half as wide and twice as deep, though.
I’ve heard it described as wide as an ocean but deep as a puddle.
I wouldn’t go that far but if you’re looking to explore alien biomes or whatever it’s not gonna be ideal
Honestly, the game is exactly what I expected from all the pre-release info. It’s a Bethesda RPG in space. I didn’t expect a space sim, so I didn’t expect any sort of dynamic streaming for seamless planetary transitions and the likes, because they very clearly stated that this wasn’t a thing.
And the capital G Gamers seem to be more bothered by pronouns, body types, female leaders, all the “replaced white people”, etc. lol
Seriously, stay away from the Steam forums folks.
Capital G Gamers were a mistake.
Whenever anyone calls me by my “they them” pronouns in game, a tiny juvenile part of me chuckles at the Gamerz out there who I’m sure are frothing at the mouth at the fact that I can play a single player game how I want.
I was considering using they / them for a second, just for shits & giggles, but then thought it’s likely not even really used in a lot of dialogs anyway (very much true after many hours later now). In hindsight it would have probably just confused me though, thinking they talk about someone else. Because I am super tired from literally playing too much, which completely fucks with my concentration & attention span. lol
Isn’t this the outcome from it all?
Rational people who aren’t fanboys or haters buy and play games with low expectations, and are rarely disappointed.
