I wouldn’t describe Starfield as Skyrim in space. I’ve watched my girlfriend play it for hours and days now and I would describe it as Fallout in space. Which is pretty cool.
Here I thought I was one of the only people who felt increasingly depressed playing Fallout 4. It eventually led to me not playing it anymore. I couldn't shake the feeling that every decision, every choice, every path was bad, some more than others... and it just was, depressing.
Perhaps brilliant story telling to instill that feeling - no other game has had that affect on me.
I've mentioned this to friends who have also played Fallout 4 and none really could relate to that feeling.
