Comment on Is it just me or is Starfield kinda meh?

I could forgive bethesda games because I used to be able to look at them as “greater than the sum of its parts”

Fallout 4 with mods just barely got away with it.

Starfield has too many issues for me.

The biggest one, your second issue of loading screens, I don’t think mods can fix. There just will never be a seamless overworld because of the spaceship mechanic.

We have Open cities so I think there will be a similar mod for starfield that help reduce the amount of loadingscreens

  I would absolutely love to enter planets after grav jumping just by flying down. I’m just having trouble imagining it happening.

I have to be honest, If I could fly my ship right over a hideout and just shred it with turrets I would. The game just a bit to combat focused to have ships in the mix unless anti-air was a thing.

  That really only makes this world even weirder. Why AREN’T these ships just glassing planets?!

    I wish I could fly my ship around to scan stuff. A rover(horse) would be nice!?!

    There’s a lore note that says ships larger than 80 meters can’t land on planets at all. I’d assume the war may also have made weapons a bit of a no-no.
    
    Although when the pirates attack first thing they also land completely. They could have stayed in the air and taken all us miners out.
    
    There gotta be a lore reason for it, but the real reason is ships are OP and this isn’t Star Wars. Realistically, what is a group of Ecliptic mercs going to do against my tricked out ship? Energy and ballistic missiles? So then they just have those all the time regardless of whether I’m in a ship or not… balance just doesnt stay consistent that way.
    
    Like, I agree, I want and it would be fun to fly out ship suborbit. I also understand why we don’t have it as an option.
