Elite Dangerous too. I was really disappointed when I lauched Starfield and learned there wasn't any seamless landing for exploring planets. It was a huge bummer to me.

Playing Baldur's Gate 3 and Tarkov, I tried Starfield, but it felt flat and boring and dropped it after a couple of hours. Went back straight to BG3

They also collect data about you and sell that as well.

No they don't. Why would they sell the data they use to target ads? If other corporations could just buy the data, they wouldn't need to pay google to target the ads, they'd just buy the data and do it themselves, Google isn't a data broker. They keep the data for them, it would be business suicide if they'd just sell all the data they collect.

Google doesn't sell the data they collect... They sell ads and use their data to better target people with said ads. Third parties are paying google to target their ads to the right people.
