If Starfield has a catchphrase it’s ‘what was I doing again?’ There’s such a density and wealth of discoveries that it’s almost impossible not to get distracted by an entire universe of things around you. You’ll pick a mission with all the best intentions of seeing it through and yet emerge, blinking, hours later on a completely different planet from where you intended to be, with endless tales of space battles, enemy encounters, and adventures under your belt muttering, “wait, what was I doing again?” It took me two days just to start the first main story mission once I was clear of the opening. I just got lost exploring planets, meeting people, and bouncing between events that I stumbled upon.
