Not really? I feel like that was a lot closer to new Vegas. That felt like a continuation of obsidian whereas starfield very much feels like a continuation of the trends between Skyrim and FO4 within bethesdas game design. If that makes sense.
The NMS like gameplay is like a tiny part of it. It’s a story heavy RPG first and foremost. Sure, you can do a lot of NMS style stuff, like gathering resources and scanning wildlife on a thousand planets, but that’s really not why you should get the game. You should get it if you want a massive space RPG in the style of Bethesda. And yes, this time Bethesda actually made a proper RPG.
I live under a rock. How does this game compare to NMS?
Apples to oranges i hear
It’s not an exploration game really at all. Think RPG with space theme.
Starfield is Fallout 4 set in space. No man’s sky is exploration in space. I prefer the latter.
Consider it as fallout 4 in space and you’re more than halfway there.
“fallout without the wacky/fun stuff” in space.
I thought that was “The Outer Worlds”?
Edit: a word.
Outer worlds is closer to “fallout in space” than starfield is.
Starfield is fallout without the fun stuff, which is dissapointing tbh.

Its fallout 4 in space. It doesnt compare to NMS. Or Elite, or Star Citizen.
