Let’s dive into the most popular player complaints about Bethesda Game Studios’ long-awaited RPG.

Starfield’s spacefaring elements are just there to create an illusion of a space voyage. But this skybox that the game calls space doesn’t feel genuine because it is impossible to land on a planet or take off from a planet in Starfield.

6 Things Starfield Players Hate (And Why They’re Right)

Starfield is still the perfect game for those who fancy Bethesda’s RPG formula, as it unifies the Fallout and Skyrim experience with a sci-fi setting.

Let’s dive into the most popular player complaints about Bethesda Game Studios’ long-awaited RPG.

Starfield’s spacefaring elements are just there to create an illusion of a space voyage. But this skybox that the game calls space doesn’t feel genuine because it is impossible to land on a planet or take off from a planet in Starfield.

1. STARFIELD’S SPACEFARING ELEMENTS ARE VIRTUALLY NON-EXISTENT

Starfield generates an explorable area every time you land on a planet. This creates room for a more personal experience, as the procedural generation system creates a different sandbox for each player.

2. PLANET EXPLORATION GETS REPETITIVE DUE TO SIMILAR POINTS OF INTEREST

The SkyUI mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim was quite popular mod for those who played Skyrim on PC. It added so much depth to the game’s inventory system, making it faster and more intuitive.

3. BETHESDA

Although a lot faster than the ones in the previous games, Starfield’s loading screens are incredibly invasive. They drag the game away from offering a seamless experience.

4. THE ENDLESS BARRAGE OF LOADING SCREENS…

While you can build and fly with colossal ships in Starfield, you just can’t explore its planets with land vehicles. To be fair to Bethesda, studio head Todd Howard did mention that the game would not offer means of land transportation.

5. PLANET EXPLORATION IS UNDERWHELMING, AND IT DESPERATELY NEEDS LAND VEHICLES

Starfield players hate the UI as much as they hate the inventory management system. That’s because doing just about anything on Starfield’s menus feels long-winded and time-consuming.

6. THE UI IS LACKLUSTER AND UNINTUITIVE
