Critically speaking, although the game wasn’t heralded as the best sci-fi epic of all time, Bethesda has undoubtedly made one of the most interesting video game universes in recent history.

The vast majority of players who played Starfield to the end had positive things to say about it. A good example of this is the Steam reviews, which give it a fairly positive rating. Starfield reached over a million concurrent players, according to none other than Phil Spencer.
