    Their biggest, most consistent fault isn’t bugs orjank, it’s the stale as fuck writing. They desperately need the hand the reigns to some new talent in that area.

    It feels like they’ve been incapable of writing a compelling narrative with interesting characters for decades now.

      Skyrim had some very compelling narratives, however it has the prior games lore buildup to build off of

      I feel like Starfield is a lot more “matter of fact” about it, wherein things are told to you moreso rather then needing to go out and “find” the lore.

      I also don’t know of any mysteries in the Starfield world that aren’t just… Explainable

      For example, terrormorphs or starborn, the game just tells you the details with hardly any effort needed to uncover the info yourself.

      Maybe I’m just way to into the FromSoft narrative style at this point where there’s tons of deep lore but they don’t just hand it to you on a platter, makes it more fun to theorize and dig
