There's quite a wide range of reviews. I tend to trust the ones who talk about how much fun the side content and faction quests a lot more than I trust the ones that were underwhelmed by the main questline. I've been playing these games since Oblivion and the only main questline I ever finished was Fallout NV.

Not really the same type of game at all. Elite is a fun simulation but there's essentially no story.
In the same way, I'm sure the space combat will be fun in Starfield, with essentially no depth.
All of the most positive reviews I've read have been at 80+ hours. Still finding new things to do, which is a good sign.
Docking point for subjective things is weird to me as well. "I wanted a minimap!"
This reviewer also went right into NG+ after finishing the main story. I guess play how you want, but that feels deeply wrong to me.
Ohhh, so that's why he was called Buzz Lightyear!
I think the Russian conception of Nazi is literally someone who threatens Russia.
Yep. Just like the US definition of socialist/communist/terrorist
Unfortunate but this is the truth. Too many of us have been accustomed to small luxuries like "affording takeout", but we unfortunately have been priced out of being able to afford stuff like this.
It's a tough pill to swallow if you've been doing it your whole life and think that a functioning adult with a full-time job should be able to afford some takeout every now and again. We are not the generation that gets to enjoy that privilege, it seems.
That's the thing though, it's not Netflix vs cable anymore. It's Netflix + Disney + Prime + whatever other streaming services have the shit you actually want to watch. And when you add it up, it's just like cable packages. The only advantage is it's all on demand.
I think it's just a human problem. You or I may like to read long form journalism, but we're in the extreme minority. It's not dying because it was so hugely profitable.
Logistically too, if you're trying to parse through the top 100 tweets in a day, and each one takes multiple paragraphs to get to the point, the amount of various viewpoints the average person is able to interact with shrinks dramatically.
Granted, it seems like everyone is taking the forced brevity as an excuse to just write +1 to pile onto their side, since that's easier.
Yeah, this kinda shit is fucking hilarious but people don't realize it. There's this corporate training BS called Kaizen where they take a lot of normal Japanese words like 無理 (muri) and associate weird Eastern mystic significance to them.
Literally just means "impossible" and is frequently used in slang to be like "no no no I couldn't possibly [talk to that hot guy]". Having it put up on a slide and presented by some white dudes in suits who were nodding solely and talking about the secret Japanese knowledge was just too much to bear.

That's fair, but also, the fact that it has procedural generation should not be a surprise to anyone at this point, they were very open about it.
I'm just hoping there's an easy way to distinguish in game between the procedural stuff that's not worth exploring and the stuff that is. I'm hoping it can be safely ignored, but it WILL be annoying if they hide really interesting questlines on otherwise barren planets.
