After two months everybody literally saw all the game had to offer, so no surprise there.

It's getting dumb what spins they're putting on all of this Starfield coverage. Yesterday it was getting stiffed for Game Awards nominations, today it's low playercount on Steam. I wonder what it's going to be tomorrow, because Microsoft paid for coverage, good or bad.

Stiffed?

To get an award you have to have earned it.

They weren't stiffed on anything as they didn't earn anything.

This while from day one they were talking like they deserved a Grammy (which they literally posted on their press release page).

There were a few articles about it earlier this week (can't find them, but they got posted on Lemmy). Feels like average outrage farming from "games journalists" honestly, since all the articles I can find about it now are from today about how "Nuh uh, it actually didn't get snubbed! Your articles are wrong!"
