I’ve watched a few YouTube reviews. They’re all saying it’s pretty good. Meanwhile, all of the accompanying gameplay footage looks boring as shit. The incongruity is impossible to ignore.
I think a lot of these people are walking on eggshells because Bethesda has made it very clear who will be getting early access from here on out. And if you’re a YouTube, you have to farm views with content for the latest big thing. Otherwise your channel will die, and then you might have to get an actual job. This is the nightmare scenario for “content creators”.
A bunch of my favorite channels mindlessly hopped on the BG3 bandwagon, and now those same people are moving over to Starfield. They’re just cynically chasing viewers at this point, with content that is radically different from what attracted me to their channels in the first place, so I’m out.
