SPOILERS!!!!! :)

If you are someone who enjoys the following :

*Procedurally Generated Planets.
*Characters and Companions with the personality of a dry wall.
*The most boring Setting ever conceived [There was this cool war that happened between these two factions, and some crazy space Fanatics launched a Holy Crusade against them, oh you want to take part in it? Sorry pal, we're in the most Peaceful period ever, go explore our 1000 procedurally generated planets, you peasant]
*Exploration that makes you realize how lonely you are and make you wish you had saved those 70 dollars.
*The Story is extremely terrible, the gist of it is that you are Space Dragonborn and have to collect fancy rocks to stop these Multiverse bad guys who are also Space Dragonborn, this story doesn't even have a true antagonist, his evil plan is to literally leave the Universe.
*Not a real RPG, no Todd, just because you can customize your character, It's Open World and you can dress whatever way you like doesn't classify this a true RPG, it's an Open World Adventure game with not many Universe-changing choices to make besides 6 measly ones, an embarrassing amount considering the scale of Starfield is like half of the Milky Way Galaxy.
*Another to add to the previous point, what's the point of replaying these stories if the outcomes are just gonna stay the same, and even then it won't even matter because you'll be in a new Universe and the only thing that's changed is just the Constellation lodge. If you don't even want to go to another Universe, what's even the point? You've done everything, all that's left to do is to explore Procedurally generated worlds with the same Points of Interests you've constantly seen, looted over, been to, done that, and all I'm reminded of is that Vaas quote from Far Cry 3 : What is the Definition of Insanity?
*Oh but you can build outposts. Oh, that's cool I guess. Can I create my own space-faring faction with all this amount of unclaimed space I got? No? Then what else am I going to do? Oh, Mine rocks? Lovely. Spectacular.
*Atleast we have ship building, that's neat, and combat's basically Fallout 4's but slightly better. (Actually I take that back, atleast you had VATS and a bit of goreyness, so it's much worse than Fallout 4's)
*Oh and the game looks cartoonish. I don't know why, but Bethesda is keen on increasingly making their games have this cartoonish look that I just dislike, if you played Fallout 4 you know exactly what I'm talking about, it's there, but worse, the characters look even more uglier and uncanny, and even if you make like a super model of a character there's just no escape from that.
*Pure laziness, even the few handcrafted environments Bethesda made is utterly garbage in comparison to what they were able to do in Skyrim, back when they did actual work and had actual passion. It seems like all the passionate people of Bethesda has since left and all you are stuck with Todd, Emil [The World's "Greatest" Story Writer], Higher Management and Lifeless husks of what used to be passionate optimistic people who just wanted to leave a legacy of creating awesome games that would define a decade only to mistakenly sell their souls and end up in purgatory [Bethesda Game Studios].


Then this game is for you. Just go play No Man's Sky honestly. You'd feel better.

There's a lot wrong with this game that honestly reflects the current state of Bethesda, and even beyond, the Mainstream part of the Gaming Industry that's been rotting due to Corporate Greed and Higher Management Incompetency. This is what Bethesda considers it's ''BEST", and I got news for you people, if this is the best, you should all be worried about Elder Scrolls 6. Which I'd like to add they only started production on it a year ago despite dropping a teaser back in 2018, and they warned to ''Keep your expectations low". Thanks Todd, I'll give you that. You may have told me sweet little lies, but you saved me. This is proof that not all heroes wear capes, they're Chess Players.

''From the creators of Left 4 Dead''

>Like 6 dudes out of the hundred or so individuals that had bigger roles in developing the Left 4 Dead Franchise that made it so memorable and loved, this game is an Arcade-esque reject of Left 4 Dead. Bland characters, bland story, questionable gameplay, no memorable moments, the whole run, this game wasn't made with any passion. Makes sense how quickly the developers sold themselves into Tencent.

Do yourself a favor and avoid this game, you'll have even more fun and save a lot more money buying Left 4 Dead 2.

For how much this game offers in variety from story to gameplay, this is the sort of game where you wish that you could play it the first time again just to experience the feeling of watching and hearing something so uniquely beautiful.

This game is such a nostalgic trip, if you played this game back in the PS2 days or you just want a perfect Aliens destroying Human society sort of sandbox then this game is right for you. I hope THQNordic is planning on remaking the 2nd one in the franchise, I would pay them 60 bucks up front for it.

Even though this game had a rough start at the beginning, Warhorse was hard at work on fixing the bugs and problems the game had and listening to it's fan base constantly, with these two factors they've managed to make a outstanding quality game. Highly recommend buying this game if you truly want to seek a very Medieval experience.
