Some of Starfield’s planets are meant to be empty by design - but that’s not boring, Bethesda insists - eviltoast

    That’s at least a step up from No Man’s Sky, which promised unexplored universes. It then delivered every planet already having a base of at least one alien race.

    At this point I would welcome literal empty planets.

      That did actually get fixed later on (like in 2018) - there’s now undiscovered systems that you can stumble across, along with abandoned systems. Can kinda see why it took a while to get added - undiscovered systems are kinda…boring.

      The sentinels are there, but that’s because they’re basically semi-divine beings and seperate from everything

        It doesn’t fix the main problem I have with it. There’s no magic to finding a new species of plant or animal because every other system has like 30 of them per planet/moon. Like whats the point of naming anything when you’ll find something near identical to it in an hour?
