    Starfield is Bethesda, so it’s going to be a buggy mess that barely works on release and will still have major game breaking bugs ten years later. But it’ll have a ton of mods to fix those bugs so the devs don’t have to. Might take a while though.

    However, I don’t think it will dethrone skyrim when it comes to the sheer modding capabilities. I think the only game that could potentially dethrone that is es6.

    Personally, I have little interest in starfield. It feels like a scifi game without the scifi if that makes any sense. Everything in the trailer was humans, why does elder scrolls have more interesting races and options? Starfield is a game where you can go to multiple planets and yet… everything is just earth and futuristic utopia. It feels like it lacks creativity.

      It seems like there is something other than humans, but we haven’t seen it yet. It’s not a playable race though. Some kind of space magic race or something. It’s supposedly more hard sci-fi though, so humans only makes sense. That said, there are a bunch of alian creatures to kill.

      I’m very skeptical of Starfield though. Bethesda used to make great RPGs, but they consistently treated their players more and more like idiots who need to have their hand held through everything. It’s sad.
