I will preface this by saying that I have played every game in the elder scrolls series, most of the fallout games, as well as just about every first party open world classic of the last 10 years.
I have read so much hate about this game that I almost didn't play it. I am so glad that I pushed through that because I can tell you that after the first few hours (mostly learning a multitude of different game mechanics) there is 100 + hours of a vast majestic, strange, beautiful, addictive, and uniquely satisfying universe. No this game is not perfect. But no game is (aside from Elden Ring and BotW/TotK). Unless you are a complete snob you will enjoy this game. I promise. Especially if you are like me and love finding a game that gives you endless exploring and over 100 hours of gameplay. Voice acting/ characters: 10/10. Visual/Graphics: 10/10. Spaceship Mechanics: 8/10. Main Quest: 9/10. Side quests: 10/10. Exploration/Looting: 10/10. Overall: 10/10. Screw the haters. Find out for yourself! Enjoy
