Hoping Starfield won't force me into base-building / micromanaging like Fallout 4 did (beehaw.org)

I loved Fallout 4 but one of my least favorite aspects of it was how it forced me into base building when I pretty much wasn't interested in that aspect of the game. I get Bethesda was doing something new and wanted to show it off, but it was so annoying being so prevalent in a lot of the main missions of that game. I'm really hoping they don't make the same mistake with Starfield. I know a lot of people are hyped about the settlement building and the micro managing just as they were in Fallout 4, but personally I'm not super interested in that. I'm more interested in the RPG stuff.

I hated the base building too. It's a really tedious system with a bad UI. I teally hope it's just an optional feature in Starfield.

In the gameplay trailer they said something like putting the base parts together and then finishing something in them. It sounds like there're some sorts of decorations/contraptions you have to add inside a built room. It would be completely fine if the rooms themselves do or provide something without cluttering the interiors.
