Starfield...the biggest failure in videogame history. Yes, it's not Concord by several lightyears.
Starfield is from Bethesda makers of Skyrim and Fallout.
Stafield was developed for over 8 years.
Starfield is what urged MS to spend over 7 Billion Dollars to acquire Zenimax when there was the threat of launching timed exclusive on PS5.
Stafield was hyped from Earth to the farthest crappy planet in the galaxy. It was supposed to be the second coming of Skyrim, only much better.
It was the first game Microsoft bought they made very clear it would not be available to PlayStation gamers.
They spent several hours on venues hyping it up, broke the bank (or simply asked daddy MS) for Big League Marketing money, with a Superbowl commercial in 2022 (for a game that would be delayed and launched end of 2023)
After all those years of work, pricey development, marketing campaigns and media coverage that would make Rockstar blush, the review copies of the game were given only to selective schills in an attemp to control the "critical reception" narrative. Many respected and traditional outlets were denied review copies. Several weeks after the game launched it stood under 70 reviews on Metacritic, where tons of much lesser games reach that count within days, and similar AAA games surpass those numbers even before official release.
It didn't take long for the truth to come out. Starfield was a disaster, a mediocre game at best. Steam ccu plummeted within a couple of weeks. By the end of the month nobody was taking Stafield, even old Bethesda games like Skyrim and Fallout 4 had higher ccus on steam and still do. Starfield is an embarrassment that will live on as the biggest dud in videogame history.
