Starfield has received much criticism for being a boring game. I understand that many gamers have gotten used to certain kind of gameplay since many games are put on assembly lines and put out to the public. The criticisms are stemming from the inability of Bethesda to match up with what is on the assembly line. While the game is some sense is too big to some, this size is important to help flesh out the game’s story and gameplay mechanics. Setting it on one world would have been criticized for being too conservative and making a compromise between small and huge would have been seen as not having a vision. Starfield maybe boring to some but it isn’t to me.
There is great hope I have in the modding community, one of those bastions of the gaming culture that still has creativity and is not just about consuming batches that are given to players in order to placate them with nostalgia hits. As a young man, I have never really given into nostalgia. I think about it, but I do not allow it to control me, which is why I am looking forward to what the modding community has to offer us. Starfield has a great foundation as a game, and I hope that the modders will continue to improve the game. I think that criticism will continue as the gaming community is well known for being outspoken on the internet. This is double-edged sword in many ways, but this community is much livelier and more energetic than other community except for sports communities. However, in comparison to sports communities, gamers are more creative and interesting to engage with than other group of people in my view. That’s why I confident the modding community will continue to enhance this amazing game.
