Bethesda's biggest RPG wound up feeling a lot smaller than its earlier ones.
You're viewing a single thread.
While I enjoyed my time I really struggling to find what I feel like I would different on a new playthrough making me worried about longevity of this game.
It really feels like unless bethesda (unlikely) or moders could do something drastic I would not return. Just pick the game back up and do the new thing.
Feels not enough to do by only stick to space. Not enough ammo to not use a variety of weapon. Nor that much other ways to deal with combat that it would warrant a new play through.
I only played like 15hrs of vanilla Skyrim. But played like 1000+ hrs of modded Skyrim. I've now played about 30hrs of starfield. If the modding scene gets as big as Skyrim, I think it would have merit in longevity.
So, what, bethesda games are now just fancy Little Big Planet sandboxes? Where the main game is just something to keep you busy until the real content creators arive?
Honestly feels like that.
They given many things in the base game fells like that they where more showcase.
Here is background it exists we barely doing anything with it but maybe you find it useful.
Here is new game plus it erases the whole world so if you want to reset world.
Here is enormous skybox. We have no reason why you can fly across the star system but tons of space for you.
Oh definitely the modding is going to carry. But what point I tried to make is I will need something big for me to consider a new playthrough. Not just adding in bunch of mods to existed save file.
Unlike Skyrim where I felt start over for mods I could actually feel like I had choice and it kinda made a difference in play style to be a mage or a knight.
