Maybe if the games did anything, uh, interesting. Didn’t play Hogwarts because I can give 0 fucks about the H Potter universe. Starfield was definitely one of the Bethesda games of all time. Just a smattering of mechanics stolen from other games and simplified. It was fun but by no means anything to write home about. Put about 140 hrs—will probably not play it ever again. Did put 120 int BG3, will probably play again in a couple months.
Hogwarts was fun, not really all that groundbreaking in any particular way but it was a good take on that universe for sure.
Hogwarts legacy was good until the hype wore off and then you notice that it's not very good story/gameplay wise and the whole game coasted on the castle itself.
Oddly the same with Starfield.
It was good until you notice the game doesn't have any depth. 1000+ planets but they're all window dressing.
