Federation is broken, so my hot take is Duke Nukem Forever is better than Starfield. (lemm.ee)

DNF sucks ass, dont get me wrong. The pacing and some sections are horrible. But it oozes passion. Hell, even some of the gun play is better than SF. The characters in DNF actually feel like characters, stereotypes to be sure, but like actual characters. From the stern general, to the terrified and grateful civilians, it feels like someone actually had a vision and was allowed to make that vision.

Starfield has zero passion. Its sterile, like a top notch cleanup team came through and drowned it in bleach, and then removed every spec of dust left with precision. Everything is bland and sterile and boring.

I have 1292 hours in Skyrim, 1005 in Fo4, and 44.9 hours in SF, and I have no desire to play again.

It's fixed now by a db query it seems, maybe worth trying on other instances also:

Thanks. I'll go post to !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml to give them a heads-up, since I suspect that most people won't look here for it.
