I'm going to do these periodically.

Title kinda says all.

I'll have my own reply later.

Starfield has made me appreciate Outer Worlds so much more. Gameplay was fine, and while the politics weren't great, they were certainly good by comparison.

I started playing Outer Worlds because I don't own anything that can run Starfield. Outer Worlds has been infinitely more visually appealing than the sterile, white, John W. Campbell blandscape that is Starfield.

Even just the the advantage of hand-crafted but relatively small open world areas over endless procedural nonsense is staggering.

I also had that problem with No Man's Sky, but I also haven't checked in on that one in a while.
