- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I think there's definitely more handcrafted content in Starfield than Skyrim, there's also tons tons more dead space with nothing at all.
Some folks say there's only about 25 hours of handcrafted stuff. I'm not late enough in to know for sure.
Yeah no way. I've played longer than that and I haven't even done the main quest.
I'm approaching that, but I have to admit I take my time and revisit towns a lot.
I've only gone to a dozen dungeons so far that were hand-crafted. There were literally hundreds of them in Skyrim. I'd love to get real numbers.
So far, I am enjoying the hell out of the game, if my lack of twitch reflexes is hurting that a lot. I keep having to juggle between ship upgrades (my Mantis keeps dying to small fleets more than 10 levels lower than me) and face-to-face. Usually by now in other Bethesda games, dying is rare. I'm too stubborn to drop the difficulty, though, so I suppose that's on me.
There's a pirate fleet in orbit around the planet I want to build my first output. Last 5 times I tried to go there, fleet keeps showing up and killing me. That's somewhat annoying.
Save in space often. There's a semi common bug I've just run into that will cause your ship to vanish and it somehow retroactively removes it from all previous saves. No recreateable way to get it back. The only thing that saved me was a previous save where I was in orbit, still lost a few hours of progress.
Weird. I haven't heard of that one yet.
