Starfield just had its first DLC launch with Shattered Space. Now, it looks like the design director is making a response to criticisms.

    Starfield has been a baffling thing to watch internet discourse over.

    I feel like the game met every expectation I had for it and is quite entertaining yet every YouTuber has to make a ten hour essay about how Starfield is ruining games forever.

      $30 for such a half-assed DLC is a pretty big ask though, Skyrim had Dragonborn which was much bigger and cheaper as well.

      I feel the same way.

      I wonder if some of it might be due to the Microsoft acquisition.

      Same with Star Wars Outlaws, maybe hating the game gets them more clicks. And then a year from now they can make videos talking about how Outlaws is great now and was underappreciated on launch.

      Finally I’ve found it. The average gamer that rewards shitty game devs for pushing slop after slop onto consumers.
