I really like it. These people are hating because it's memey to hate Bethesda.
Yep, no legitimate criticism to be found. None whatsoever. Just wait for mods, they'll fix a game for free. The multi-million dollar studio did nothing wrong.
There is legitimate criticism, but there's a lot of complete shit. I've heard people complain about procedurally generated planets that you have to go out of your way to interact with. There's complaints of bullet sponge enemies from people who insisted on going to level 40 areas at level 20. Both of those complaints are bullshit
"Why do planets have borders, I want to circumnavigate Mars"
Agreed. I often spend 30-60 min in an area trying to find an ideal outpost location. The limuts on how far you can go on planets are already huge. From what I recall, the total area is comparable to Skyrim, ~~though I'll have to double check that~~
Edit: Yeah, literally every individual explorable area in the game is larger than the entire map of Skyrim or Fallout 4. Source: https://thenerdstash.com/how-big-starfield-is-open-world-size-measured-explained/
