It's just not an exceptional game... I get that some like it, it has some great bits like the ship builder and the improved gunplay since Fallout4, but overall it falls short. Starfield's greatest flaw isn't the constant loading screens, the limited role playing mechanics, the dated engine, the empty planets, or the 10 other things people were dunking on it when it came out. You can definitely feel the death by a 1000 cuts, but it's major flaw for me is that the game is just bland, boring, and safe which in 2023 (especially for this type of story driven game) is unforgivable.
I think it could be a massive playground for modders if they release the creation kit. But it used to be that modders fixed Bethesda games. Now they have to create all the content as well because Starfield is empty.
