        At this point it’s morbid curiosity. Same reason I have Duke Nukem 3D Forever. If The Day Before was an offline game, I check it out too just for laughs. I still have GOG offline installers for Cyberpunk v1.0, because that is some funny shit when you didn’t preorder it.

      Don’t. It’s absolutely not worth the hassle, even of pirating it for free.

        Too late! Already downloaded what’s available, just busy with other games. And waiting for other patches, hopefully for nvidia performance improvements, before I bother installing.

            Thank you for mentioning it. I did see that was finally added, just figured it probably needs some more ironing out, and may get it before I eventually get around to it. I’m in no hurry.

        I played for a couple hours and had a laugh, worth pirating to see what all the fuss is about imo

      Dude, ok. The responses you received imo are somewhat disingenuous, and bandwagonish.

      Is it the answer to Skyrim or Fallout? God no.

      It is fun? Yes. It’s Skyrim/Fallout in space. Don’t expect much more than that.

      You want an ultra realistic space fairing game? Play Elite Dangerous.

      You’ll have have at least 40-60 hours of fun. I’m not trying to be a shill here. There are a decent amount of things you can extract from Starfield for why you won’t like it. However, it’s still something worthy of experiencing.

      Especially if you steal it.

        Thank you for the more reasonable feedback. I’ve gleaned from a few youtube channels that it’s worth checking out for at least a little while if you don’t bring certain expectations to it. Outside Xtra/Xbox in particular had one discussion that made it still sound interesting enough to give it a shot.

        And if nothing else, I could consider it “Train Wreck Simulator” and enjoy it for a while from that angle.
