Yeah that sounds like a generic space rpg setting, you just described the genre. Nothing in that statement can be exclusively tied to starfield
Your reading comprehension seems to be overlooking the part where I started with 'i had high hopes for this game.' The game is far from generic, there isnt one person in this thread that could draft a better story or even come close to a released game.
Wanna talk generic? Every starwars game, like ever. Every call of duty game, like ever.
Yall are funny. Thanks for reminding me to jump back onto Starfield!
Also this is just an utterly ridiculous way to respond to criticism of a product, no shit an average joe can't make a multi million dollar triple A game, but that doesn't mean he can't dislike it
The opposite can be true as well, a game can flop on your expectations but you can still like it. Youre all just fighting tooth and nail to make 'generic' mean something it doesnt.
My man, or woman, sorry if I am wrong on pronouns, feel free to correct me.
I genuinely went to your profile out of a 'who tf is this mf', and seeing your most recent post, I genuinely hope you arent struggling with anxiety or depression too bad. Those are mean, ugly things that can weigh you down.
I hope life is treating you well, and on the note of posts, the bread you made looks fucking great. Thats like some genuine top bakery looking bread. I would buy the hell out of that if I saw some that good looking.
We can disagree and fight or troll about the game as much as we want, but I dont want to do or say anything that would genuinely make you feel negatively.
So on that note, fook you, starfield great, me right, you wrong.
Cheers mate, for real for real, much love.
I can agree with that.
I was also mostly just prodding and poking cause you have a unique way of responding, definitely a lot of energy there I can see you're passionate.
We can also disagree if you want, but not in a serious way my man. Mental health is no joke. All the love to you. If they ever come out with starfield 2, I'll gloat. Until then, I'll let you trash talk my favorite generic space game.
I can agree it feels generic, but I just wanted to express that, to me, it feels like it WAS a good concept, but they didn't see it through and it crushed my hopes of what I felt it could be. Nothing more my man. Sorry for the hostility in my writing.
Im definitely a little too passionate about things at times and let it attach to my ego and get worked up. I definitely shouldnt
You're alright, I was also being very inflammitory. I deleted my other not so tasteful responses.
Hey we can both agree we should do better, thats a beautiful thing. It would be great if we could all get along. I want to scrub mine too, but also I want to leave them as a standing point of letting people see that I wasn't entirely nice, but that you made me think and change my tone.
LMAO the go to when you are losing 'are you alright?'
You seem like a basement dweller who freaks out at any disagreement. You are all arguing the word generic without using its definition, while simultaneously overlooking how my hopes were crushed by this game.
You need mental help kid.
I'mma ignore that for now, and we will see how the conversation progresses when you read my other comment. I'd hate to get into one of THESE kinda conversations you are starting by getting into this, but I will definitely disengage with you in particular from your post history.
In general, why bother getting into one of those conversations anyway? Best to just disengage.
We talked it out in another comment. I'm a big fan of the game, so I took it way too personally and got over invested in explaining myself.
It was dumb and unproductive. Definitely best to disengage, but the user I was responding to, and I, came to a reasonable agreement about our perspectives in a different thread.
You arent wrong though. Cheers mate.
This is a great response, thanks. Great to see it. Have a great rest of the weekend!
You as well mate! Stay safe!
