WhileStarfieldis receiving praise for its attention to detail, it does have some issues. In a recent stream, Asmongold reacted to a clip criticizing the game for limiting players' exploration of planets with invisible walls. However, he argued that this wasn’t the game’s most significant problem. According to Asmongold, the real issue is the lack of variety and meaningful content in the game. He expressed frustration that the world a player enters only has around five points of interest, making it feel repetitive and dull. He compared it to the experience of playing classicWorld of Warcraft, where players would often revisit the same areas multiple times.
Asmongold also mentioned that he explored around 15 to 20 different planets in the game, and they all felt remarkably similar. In his opinion, the monsters, areas, loot, combat, and gameplay were all repetitive and boring. Additionally, he joked thatStarfield’s map design seemed so nonsensical that it must have been created by the AI of the soldiers and pirates within the game. Lastly, Asmongold added that he wanted to like the game but found it challenging due to the issues he encountered during his initial experience.
While it remains uncertain whether Bethesda’sStarfieldwill manage to change Asmongold’s perspective on the game, it’s important to note that there have been reports of other issues plaguing the game. Some players have taken to social media platforms to highlight severeaudio problems that seem to affect both the PC and console versions ofStarfield.
