Anyone who gives this game 5/5 has never played an actually good space game. Games like No Mans Sky or Elite Dangerous, Mass Effect, ect. build expectations that every single space game should have. Some of these should be dynamic events, being attacked by pirates when you have valuable cargo on board, or maybe you randomly encounter a large ship being attacked by pirates and you blow the pirates up and the captain of the large ship give you a reward. Some other things I would expect out of any space game is a seamless transition from planet surface to space then a loading screen that appears as a warp animation from star system to star system. Starfield doesn't even have a cool loading screen animation to fool the player into thinking they are warping. The game just black screens says starfield and a circle spins until the loading is complete. Your ship just auto lands on a planet and it takes away all of the world interactivity from a space game. This game basically follows a simplified formula of Fallout 4 but oddly throws in a reskinned version of shouts from Skyrim, but most of the normal Bethesda things like sneaking, picking locks, ect. are actually locked until you unlock them as a perk. This really takes away from the game locking what should be basic game mechanics behind a grind wall. Starfield has no "grit" to it. It is very bland, basic, and inoffensive. It is plagued with the mark of the woke developer. It doesn't take any risks. We just had Baldurs Gate 3 which shows that woke games just can't compete with games made with passion and that builds a story with grit. The bugs in this game are my biggest issue. NPCs will look away from you during conversations, none of the NPCs are even memorable. The only memorable NPC is the fan dude who is a meme at this point. He is the only one with some kind of character to him. Starfield took no risks and disregarded most aspects of what makes a space game fun. It is a reskinned fallout 4 but the space theme just doesn't work with the game engine Bethesda is using. The engine is showing its age and the developers who made this game put in so many lame NPCs none of which make any kind of lasting memory and are completely forgettable. Save your money for something better.

This game makes dark souls look like mario kart. It is incredibly challenging. Everything in Noita wants to, and eventually will, kill you. You must learn how to build strong wands. There is a bit of RNG in this game as the levels are randomly generated, however luck will not be enough. You will die many times before you win. Most will never win, they will quit. You may need to die over a hundred times, or multiple hundred times to win. Building a strong wand is essential. And, even with a very strong wand, you could just accidently blow yourself up with it if you dont have the right perks. I give this game a 10/10. The game is meant to be difficult and brutal, and it does this excellently. It gives you a way to win, but makes that path require knowledge and careful navigation of the levels. HP is a valuable resource in Noita, you will feel like every single HP is your last. Because it just might be if you arent careful.
