I don't think it's a bad game at all. But the Bethesda formula is definitely showing its age and the muted tone and presentation of Starfield, compared to Elder Scrolls and Fallout, accentuates this. I have like a dozen other games vying for my attention and a huge backlog of other titles, and I've been struggling to find motivation to play Starfield as a result. If I'd paid CDN$90 for the privilege I'd probably feel more strongly about it either way.
