No! Why would you say that? What a weird Idea. People are saying it's a shit game because it is a shit game.
If it was a shit game, why does it need to keep getting mentioned?
It sucks, move on with your life.
It keeps getting mentioned because it's the new Bethesda game (also its kind of a big deal being their first new IP in, what, 20 years?), it hasn't been even a year since it dropped (so it's still fresh to people), and it has more content coming. And because every new update will stir the old users again and bring a new wave of users that will also keep mentioning its improvements and its flaws.
And i mean, even aside from that, Oblivion and Morrowind still get mentioned to this day (in both good ways and bad), and they're much older. Same's going to happen to Starfield. It's just the way it is.
That's exactly what I'm saying. I'm not even saying it sucks really, to me it's just not super compelling so far. End of story. Not gonna talk about it anymore. And I've decided after this thread that Starfield is going in my Lemmy content filter. I don't care in the least how much people hate it so I don't need to read about it every 4 days.
