Like I said in that thread, socialism is what you are when America is planning a coup in your country. Simple definition!

Yeah, it’s pretty underhwelming. There’s a lot of people who claim Starfield is a “great Bethesda game” but “people hyped it up too much.” In my opinion, it’s a terrible Bethesda game. The best thing those games do right is you can set off in a direction and along the way, find a world full of little things. Landmarks, unique little stories, side quests, and even just interesting items to grab. Starfield dropped all of this in favor of incredibly generic proc gen planets that have the same couple of outposts you’ll see on every planet. Like THE SAME. The interiors are THE SAME. Every safe, dead body, message log is THE SAME.

It lacks the one thing that brought me back to Bethesda games despite all their flaws.

Be fair to Fallout 4 mods, there’s probably several with more interesting writing than Starfield.

Only one Commander belongs in the White House and it is not the Commander in Chief.

It is extremely cool to bite Secret Service agents and I will not take this Commander slander (lol it rhymes).

Unlike Star Trek, they failed to imagine humans beyond capitalism. In one of the “largest” cities in a galaxy with infinite resources, infinite space, and faster than light travel… why am I helping out a homeless shelter? Why is it literally modern problems, but in space? Surely the invention of technologies like the grav drive would leave to SOME sort of change in class structure? There’s just no creativity. You could put a green filter on everything, bomb things out a bit, and you’d assume you’re playing Fallout, but you find out Vault-Tec sent ships into space to colonize the galaxy as well.

That’s not true. You’re thinking of social programs. Socialism is when workers own the means of production.

If this was socialism, America would have already done a military coup in Denver.
