There are no negative reviews on Starfield and the overall score is 88. The main criticism is for repetitive activities and mediocre main story, which is more like onboarding for the sandbox.
If you expected something in between Skyrim and No Man's Sky, you'll get it. Just don't wait for a memorable story, like Mass Effect or The Outer Worlds. And get ready to learn some tools, cause Bethesda decided to be short on tutorial sections and leave it for the player to try and learn.

Saints Row developer Volition has been shut down and Gearbox Publishing is facing significant layoffs, despite recent success of Remnant II.
Volition has been in business for 30 years, their Red Faction and Saints Row games were legendary, but the recent reboot of the SR franchise was a complete commercial failure.
It was built around careless characters and awkward dialogues, combined with poor performance and boring gameplay activities. Even ones who liked it were barely able to tell friends what was good.
After Embracer Group broken investment deal (this spring), it was only a matter of time for the studio to be closed.

For me, Starfield experience ended up with a refund request. The more you go, the more broken it feels.
The first couple of moons are nice, space is awkward, and cities are horribly bad.
A few years ago one small indie team managed to make High on Life with amazing cities you can travel between for a fraction of the cost. Memorable characters, exciting moments, and true science fiction moments were everywhere.
Same with The Outer Worlds – it was memorable, has Futurama vibes, and has a valuable, sarcastic, and tragic plot. Even beasts are something that you will remember for years and the arsenal was great.
Bethesda failed on that – no science fiction, no space sim, no role-playing, but rather poorly stitched sandbox features.

For those who want to enjoy good space science fiction, I recommend trying The Outer Worlds instead of Starfield:
It has characters that make sense, plot you really care about, and the world with level design in mind... and fully detailed maps of locations.
If you prefer more action than taking, just try High on Life, from the creator of Rick and Morty. It's amazing.
Don't waste your time on Starfield, it's a prototype that will take years to fix (if they will agree to fix it).

MrBeast discovered with the new A/B testing feature that his mouth must be shut to get way better CTR results. I assume this will also affect the screaming faces icons of mobile games, right?

Let me make it clear: the game has no proper Screen-Space Reflections, it's like tech that is being used for 20 years, but Bethesda is using GEOMETRY-ADJUSTED CUBEMAPS, this is a damn relic that can be found only on mobile graphics. It's not NEXT-GEN, it's not even past-past-gen.
This makes water and any reflective surface look horrible outside of baked interiors. Not raytracing, not even pre-raytracing, it's a tech that runs on your gramma's mobile phone.
But in Creation Engine 2 in makes 4090 and 7900 XTX look like a joke.
