what is starfield if not Worse Skyrim
Mass Effect with even worse style and worldbuilding and with no stakes whatsoever.
Mass Effect: White People edition
Mass Effect was already the story of how the galaxy was saved thanks to an unaccountable cop with unlimited jurisdiction and no limits on authority, succeeding despite his worst enemy: democratic bureaucracy trying to stop him from acting as he pleased.
Shit, the very first game has a Spectre go bad and almost doom the entire galaxy, and the problem is fixed not with addressing how Spectres probably shouldn't have a license to kill and no oversight, but by a good Spectre shooting the bad one.
Mass (Liberal) Effect: Maybe The Reapers Were Right?
Like literally every single species in the galaxy is hyper lib.
Reapers pls.
Sadly the best parts of Starfield are where it hews closest to Skyrim, and the worst parts are where it tries to do something new.
Even with the adjective added this still feels insulting to Skyrim.
Fallout 4 with guns?
