Personally don't mind a bit of development news, patch notes, expansions pack adverts etc personally. It's empty space and if you don't want to look at it then you can be past it in 0.5 seconds anyway.
Obviously if its XP boosts and annoying DLC adverts then it can get to fuck though.
Oldrim sure but not Special Edition. I don't own Anniversary so I can't comment but my assumption is that it won't be any less than Special Edition. Fallout 3 and New Vegas benefit from not being tied to the Creation Club where this bullshit originates from.
I hope I can mod a replacement image without too much trouble-- that flare on the right is uncomfortably bright when the image is expanded to full screen on my desktop monitor. There's all kinds of pre-existing Starfield art assets that would work, starting with official wallpaper that scales up to 5K.
