Seems kind of like the game is just suffering from reactionaries, but I definitely don't put that much stock in critic reviews these days either.

This game is just ridiculous. Overhyped advertising, terrible optimalization, 10 years old graphics, so many loadscreens, plain story, no real space exploration, perk wall to do anything, horrible UI and they call it next gen open world space exploration RPG. I stopped playing after 10 hours so I can make a good assumption but it got only worse and worse. I don't have time to waste it on this. Even if it starts being more enjoyable later it doesn't excuse all the issues.

I feel you. The first 10-15 hours did feel like kind of a slog. I will say, I hit a point where I'm legitimately enjoying the game and things seem to have coalesced in a way they just don't in earlier game. I'm 20 hours in though. That's a slow starter if there ever was one.

You're a patient man. If you enjoy it, that's good. But that game is not for me. Last game I enjoyed from Bethesda was Oblivion so I'm not much surprised. I'm quite picky..
