That is the most antecipated game of the year ? Geez

 

[Zheph]

It's 89 on opencritic

86 now

 

[niilokin]

Not bad scores overall.

 

[balls of snow]

Gamesradar 5/5.

 

[Banjo64]

86 OC with 50 reviews in.

This is hard to digest. On its own, a great score but for this studio I was expecting Elden Ring/TOTK scores.

 

[sinnergy]

Great scores all around ! In school I was glad with a 7!

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

Yikes

 

[Bernoulli]

no fucking way

 

[Gudji]

Reviews are all over the place, there's even a 5.

ACG really liked it. Good enough for me.

Fextralife also a 9.4

 

[Sleepwalker]

On the bright side those xbox astroturfing twitter accounts will be a fun read today

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

I really don't know what people expected from a Bethesda game.

I'm perfectly fine with it being around 85MC, that's actually better than I expected from Bethesda Maryland after Fallout 4.

That said, I'm still going to enjoy the fuck out of the tears this causes.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Only focusing on two reviews?

It fits some's narrative is all

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

 

[Thyuda]

7.5/10 from PC Gamer:

Starfield review

It's Bethesda's biggest RPG by far, but nowhere near its best.

[Del_X]

About in line with my expectations.

 

[twilo99]

It will be a solid 7/10 game but it will make millions anyway

It was obvious really lol

All the real outlets love it, IGN and gamespot are for casuals.

The narratives have begun...

 

[ByWatterson]

IGN's score is pretty shocking, honestly.

 

[Montauk]

All the real outlets love it, IGN and gamespot are for casuals.

Going straight for the unashamed “any outlet that scores below what I wanted is irrelevant” then.

 

[rofif]

I feel strange. I was extremely hyped for all TES and fallout games (aside from 76) but I don't feel this one.
There is almost no better feeling than playing a bethesda game on release and finishing it. I never return to the game after that but these are always good games.
And then fallout 4 came out....

You are expecting to much, I don’t blame you , it’s this generation , faster , better, more money , Big lifestyles. Easy money .

Bro, it’s Skyrim with guns with new cost of paint. What did people expect?

 

[Certinty]

Not even surprised. All the gameplay I had seen looked bland, completely outdated in so many ways too.

 

[Elder Legend]

IGN video review had it at a 7/10..

They must be scrapping for views to stay relevant. I don't get how a game like this gets 7/10. Can't wait for tonight and see for myself.

 

[Top_Gunner_82]

Great scores all around ! In school I was glad with a 7!

And you're posting on here with us.

Be better

Starfield Fails to Launch

With Starfield the Bethesda RPG format goes traditional sci-fi, to less than stellar results. Who knew space could feel so familiar?

www.pastemagazine.com

LMAO Paste Magazine gave it a 5/10

Doesn't matter, game is still gonna be great. Seeing all the sites/reviews I care about in the 9/10 range.

 

[Gudji]

Bro, it’s Skyrim with guns with new cost of paint. What did people expect?

I wish it was Skyrim.

 

[SlimySnake]

I am not surprised the big sites are giving it harsh reviews. Open critic is still at 88.

IGN had a lot of good things to say about the game in their verdict. it seems the game pays off after a rough start. Thats ok with me.

 

[RyRy93]

90+ easy, this is an epic game, talking hundreds of hours of content, 1000 planets, so many game systems at play, this isn't a normal game. Seriously I am bewildered at some of the low scores predicted here. Its like its not coming out for everyone's favourite games machine or something

86 Opencritic, Ubi-tier

THey got fed up with bethesda style rpg after Bg 3 showed the light.

Phil predicted an 11/10

 

[diffusionx]

This and Redfall, will Microsoft ever recover?

 

[Banjo64]

Bro, it’s Skyrim with guns with new cost of paint. What did people expect?

Skyrim was literally the game of that console generation.

 

[ungalo]

So good scores but really not great, with even some remarkably low scores from big outlets.

I don't want to say disappointing based on what media say but i'm kind of scared.

Well, considering the hype boost, some of these votes are lower than I would have expected.

Reality has hit and IGN and Gamespot are pathetic outlets.

 

[The Last One]

Nice scores for S7arfield.

Imagine paying 7.5Bi for Redfall and this
