Phil Spencer wants Starfield to be a 12-year hit, just like Skyrim

Skyrim was an awesome game at launch, even without mods. The epic storyline, they way you're face to face with a dragon within minutes of starting, and the diverse range of races and classes you could be made it your own. There's a reason why it lasted as long as it did.

• 1000 planets to explore. So why couldn't they have let you upload your base to a server online, and then have other people's bases randomly appear in your game as you play? Bearing in mind, this would not be an online game, you would have the opportunity to download them.

• Ship building is fun, but it's too limiting. It feels like a system that's still in its infant stages and could've been refined. Give me the ability to resize modules, have the ability to merge parts, so my ship looks more like the ones in Mass Effect or Star Citizen, and not like a mass of parts bolted onto each other.

• Bethesda NPCs just don't work in 2023. There's so little life in them, and the voice acting sounds like they are speaking in a recording booth. There's no life to their voices or characters. It's so jarring, going to Starfield after playing Baldurs Gate 3, or Cyberpunk 2077.

• Loading screens.

• Boring. At least give me an all terrain vehicle to explore 1000 planets, or don't make carrying capacity and oxygen so difficult to manage. How about they give us free DLC after release that continues to add curated content to other planets. Give me a damn reason to play the game, Bethesda! What the hell is this BS?
