What the fuck? How long has it been optional there? Can't speak to my state but not at least having normie math be mandatory just seems bizarre.

If you can't manage that then take your Year 10 Pass and fuck off.

alright its 2am and i played starfield for several hours. some takeaways:

- npc look like clay and act retarded. pathing is no good, combat feels too easy because they don't flank and barely seek cover if ever

- space combat is fucking gay, micromanagement of multiple ship funcions during battle with a clunky key combo makes this tedious and rewards are not worth it

- gunplay feels more in line with DOOM than Fallout 4, enemies aren't complete bullet sponges anymore. weaponry seems balanced for the most part and loot drops aren't incredibly rare

- dialogue leaves a lot to be desired and the speech check system doesn't seem to work or maybe broken -- the three speech checks I ran into so far I passed the hardest check every time

overall it's OK. it's not great. not really even good. I don't really expect much from Bethesda anymore but this was much more of a letdown than 76 was and the fact it's been in production for nearly a decade and this was the final polished product leaves a lot to be desired.

would i buy it if i didnt own it? no. well, at least not for full price. maybe on Fanatical or something for a heavily discounted rate. if you haven't bought it, pirate it and try it before you do.

6 hours playtime - 5.5/10

Good news everyone
