It could have been so good and the game genuinely has some cool environments but for the most part there is just nothing to do. I've stumbled on some cool places like the Mantis hideout and stuff but the game is so repetitive and 98% of the planets are devoid of life.

And they wanted it that way. They were like well that's what it's really like! Which like yeah great, but that's terribly boring for a game.

Another game like that was Mass Effect 1, where they had the undiscovered worlds, but even those were more entertaining. They gave you a mako, and each planet had at least one faction with at least some backstory to it so it wasn't a complete waste. Starfield is like, nothing. I encounter the exact same building structure and camps multiple times on my single playthrough. Absolutely uninspired

Yep! When I saw that Todd said that I was kind of dumbfounded. I get that that's how space is but like, that shits boring. They really could have had something special but they severely missed the mark.
