I've heard people take that approach with Starfield and still be very disappointed. If it's space you want and are ok with creating your own story, Elite Dangerous is getting a pretty big revival

Its mostly just that I want a Morrowind/Oblivion/Skyrim with a sci-fi setting. A solid story, lots of side-quests, and a dynamic world that reacts to the player. I'd probably enjoy a modern metropolitan criminal setting as well for an RPG like GTA's settings but Elder-Scrolls/3D-Fallout gameplay but you never see that at all.

Space is cool though.

I don't think it's a super common opinion, but I really liked Starfield's main story. That said, it completely fails on the dynamic world front. You might be better off with Cyberpunk for now.

I don't believe you. That game exists, it's called Starfield, and it failed specifically because of its sci-fi setting and for no other reason.

I've not gotten around to trying it yet, I've already got like 6-7 games on my plate ATM on various devices. I actually suspect I wont hate it but I hear its pretty meh.

Hopefully Bethesda can turn it around with DLC/updates though. I hear modding is still in its infancy too so maybe we'll get something in that area down the road too.

Also I figure if I wait hopefully Starfield will get a VR edition (or maybe a mod) and that might be when I really want to jump in.
