Bethesda says most of Starfield's 1000+ planets are dull on purpose because 'when the astronauts went to the moon, there was nothing there' but 'they certainly weren't bored'

Exploring is supposed to be a reward in itself.
Sure Todd, lol

I'm an Elite Dangerous veteran and have no problem with that. I think it's more realistic.
I'm about 18 hours in and the illusion of variety hasn't worn off yet. Plenty of things to find, with some travel time though. Unlock/upgrade your backpack boosters and it's almost like Tribes though, as you go flying across the landscape in short bursts to keep moving forward in the air.
Shazbot!
"It's almost like Tribes" are the four magic words to get me interested in any game.
New match starts and half the team instantly spams
"I've got the flag!"
"I've got the flag!"
"I've got the flag!"
"I've got the flag!""I am the greatest!"
"No."
"I am the greatest!"
Starfield at least lets me have some fun on foot. Elite built their ground component in a very punishing way that made it very annoying to deal with.
Yeah, I'm right here with you. I've explored hundreds of systems in Elite. I get excited when I find an interesting planet. It would be really weird and immersion breaking for me if every planet was interesting.
Oddly enough, it's misleading. Planets are covered with procedural generated POIs what he meant is that the environment of most planets is barren. I wish there were actually unexplored planets that weren't covered in POIs too.
