Even Starfield's community patch modders are growing 'disenchanted' with the sci-fi RPG, as volunteers depart in droves: 'If nobody comes forward, we may have to retire the project' (www.pcgamer.com)

I love NMS, and I think it's a better game than Starfield overall. But they're extremely different.

Their overall premises differ a lot, but it's very easy to see that a lot of the "exploration" in SF tried to copy NMS, but did so in the worst way possible.

Scanning plants and wildlife? Turn on scan mode and find those. Only in Starfield, you have to do it several times to complete, because FUN!

Points of interest dotting the planet surface? Sure! Just make sure they have zero connection to anything in both games!

Space exploration? Just a random dice roll when you enter a planet orbi, clearly better than using an item to search for a random POI in space!
