I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it's a bad game. Don't do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you'll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent's cool thing.

Do you have a similar game?

Skyrim. The writing is horrible, I can't remember the name and personalities of more than 5 NPCs, the town's are microscopic, it can't handle more than 5 NPCs on screen, all the dungeons are theme park rides with gift shop exits, combat is a horrific sloppy mess, it's ugly, it has 4 voice actors, it's a buggy mess despite being released 37 times, the only way to interact with the world is violence, and all of the quests are flaccid boring murderfests.

I've played hundreds of hours.

I'm kind of afraid for Starfield. It looks interesting but given their track record I'm afraid they might botch it up.

Don't even be afraid they "might", just accept that they will. Go into it with the understanding that it's going to be an overhyped bugfest when it launches, that you can then eventually fix and massively overhaul with mods, just like every other Bethesda game, and then you can just skip the part where you're disappointed.
