Starfield's planets aren't all interesting, but they're not all "supposed to be Disney World" - eviltoast

You’ll probably find that a lot of planets in Starfield are pretty boring, but Bethesda says that’s kind of the point.

    Oof, beehaw only just gave me this notification.

    Haha, I’m also not getting any notifications because my app doesn’t support them yet xD Better late than never!

    it felt closer to a bioware game like kotor than it did a bethesda game.

    Now that you mention it, it does! I really liked the KotOR games, so that’s probably why Outer Worlds clicked as much for me as it did. I did try replaying KotOR a while ago, but I was bothered by how old it felt. I’ve never finished Mass Effect though, so maybe I should. And Dragon Age: Origins is said to be the last “real” Bioware RPG, so that’s also interesting.

    It’s just too bad those games are all so old. I’m currently playing Fallout: New Vegas because I’d never finished it and I’m trying to get into a habit of actually finishing games, but the transition back from OW to FNV was quite a shock. It’s not just graphics; older UIs can be really bad. I tried getting back into a game of Fallout 1, but it felt like just playing the game cost way too much effort.

    I totally recommend Kingdom Come deliverance, it’s one of my favorites.

    Thanks for the rec! I’ve put it a bit higher on my backlog, after Disco Elysium and BG3. Great stuff ahead :)
