So did Starfield become the next big thing? (hexbear.net)

It feels like when Fallout 3, 4 and Skyrim came out you couldn't escape people posting about them for weeks, especially with Skyrim. Now the most I've seen are complaints about how disappointing Starfield was.

Is the game that much blander or does Internet culture just move on that much faster these days? On the other hand, I do feel like there was a lot more enthusiasm for other games like Elden Ring, and sometimes you get an Among Us that just completely take over the Internet.

Games really need to get past the be nice to all or a complete fascist scumbag binary when it comes to "moral" choices. Seems like this game took a step in the wrong direction toward be a shitlib or be a fascist

IIRC even Outer Worlds which was pretty lib lets you kill the capitalist aristocracy?

Not always. It was a very lib game once you got past the aesthetics.
