    You can say you don’t like it, but it certainly technically worked.

    Don’t hide behind objectivity when discussing art, it’s all subjective all the time, and even statements that declare something is are subjective. The immersion is shattered because that is my experience with it for the reasons I already stated.

    I don’t need to add an ‘in my opinion’ because it never will be anything but my opinion

      Unfortunately, you’re not the only person I’m discussing Starfield with here, and most are trying to tell me that Starfield is objectively bad. I am not “hiding behind” objectivity, I’m arguing that Starfield isn’t “objectively bad”.

        Much like literally, objectively is often used for emphasis, and I hate it, those words shouldn’t be used that way

          I think people here are actually trying to make objective statements about the quality of the game (that is, lack thereof). Though they aren’t really quantifying good reasons to support that high bar.
