Probably an unpopular opinion here but I just finished my first playthrough of starfield (which multiple playthroughs are part of the story), and it’s absolutely polished. I was genuinely surprised at the lack of standard Bethesda jank, especially because of their use of a super old engine they just keep improving. It’s by no means perfect, but neither are armored core or bg3. It’s a solid title with good shooting mechanics, a decent storyline, and it kept me playing through at launch to finish, which is very uncommon in today’s AAA landscape
