Starfield steam page for the DLC currently shows eight user review score of 41%, making this one of the worst Bethesda DLC's released of all time. This is so horribly, shockingly bad for Bethesda, because it shows as a gaming company, they are no longer capable of delivering a really good gaming experience as they had in the past. Some of the reviews sum up quite nicely what is wrong with this DLC....

Less content than any skyrim DLC. Less than The Fallout 4 story DLCs. Doesn't change of the complaints people had with the base game, writing is still at a 4th grade level.

Quick: If you are looking to buy my answer is no, you aren't missing much content. I was really hoping to enjoy this DLC. Took about 4 hours for the main story and maybe 2 more hours to 100% the achievements.

These two reviews I think really summed up what Starfield has become, $70 for an AAAA title that has extremely little buy-in from the community, horrifically low amount of replayability and can be breezed through easily. It's mind-boggling to see this

Is that my "line of thinking" when I never said anything of the sort? I don't think so.

I've never played Cyberpunk 2077 nor No Man's Sky and have zero opinion on them, but you bringing them up out of nowhere as some sort of 'gotcha' screams "my argument is based on emotion and not fact."

what is factually wrong about 76 being improved after release? that's the entire thing, i'm not the one convienently ignoring those facts because it doesnt support my argument 😂

For the fourteenth time, it's completely irrelevant to the discussion.

You talk about conveniently ignoring things while you're ignoring the whole topic so you can keep talking about some updates to Fallout '76 as if that has any bearing on Bethesda trending toward doing worse and worse with each new release. You're making a completely separate argument to the rest of us.

actually its only the 6th time, not 14th. how can i trust your word now?

and 76 has gotten new releases pretty frequently. they are called content updates or dlc, which are free on that game. i think bethesdas only released 2 other games since 76, redfall, which was done by a different studio, and starfield
