Starfield\u2019s<\/em> Steam page rating has dropped to a \u201cMixed\u201d score, just two months after its launch, continuing a slow collapse for the Bethesda release.<\/p>
Bethesda\u2019s long-awaited space epic has been on a gradual player-count downturn since its Wednesday, Sept. 6 release, with a 50 percent decrease in player count from last month, according to Steam Charts<\/a>. Starfield<\/em> averaged around 26,500 concurrent players within the last 30 days, and it continues to plummet.<\/p>
One of the big reasons why\u2014beyond people just finishing the game\u2014can be found in the 75,627 Starfield<\/em> reviews on Steam<\/a> since debut. Players have continuously raked Starfield<\/em> over the coals for a multitude of reasons, though some still defend it to this day.<\/p>
However, its single-player experience still isn\u2019t ticking all the boxes for a collection of gamers, many of whom have rated it poorly online. A majority of these players have pointed to Starfield\u2019s<\/em> lack of layers beyond its number of planets is one big problem. Starfield<\/em> \u201cmakes you feel small in a small world that is pretending to be big<\/a>,\u201d according to one reviewer, and others agree.<\/p>
Its story wasn\u2019t far from critique either. Players claimed Starfield\u2019s<\/em> missions \u201care functionally the same as the first 10 you play<\/a>.\u201d This is compounded by what players say is a boring storyline<\/a>, meaning you\u2019re likely to get a few disgruntled gamers.<\/p>
On the other side of the coin, some players claimed it had a massive amount of content to dive head-first into<\/a>. Others praised the sheer number of planets available to explore<\/a>, contrasting other players’ reviews.<\/p>
