Reddit has toxic positivity with regards to Starfield. I find the comments I've read here so far to be a much more measured take. Basically that it's a good game but it has a few minor issues that make it not live up to what was advertised.
Or at least the expectations people had made for themselves.
More so this. The things I saw people saying they were gonna do once they got the game despite nothing of the sort being implied to be in the game were out of control. I've played the dog shit out of Skyrim and Fallout 4 and have yet to be let down by Starfield because I knew what to expect. And yes, I watched all of the ads and read the interviews, same as most, and never once felt lied to.
