Starfield has made me obsessed with no man’s sky
So far, Starfield is an awesome game, but now I have an urge to pick up my character on no man sky, and I’m having trouble putting that game down right now.
Anyone else experienced this for example urge to play another space game?

I should preface this by saying that I am extremely underwhelmed with starfield, but I’ve been going back to playing space engineers for my sci fi exploration cravings. Everything i was looking forward to in starfield seems to be compromise after compromise, tied together by loading screens. And the setting looks good on paper but really can’t draw me in.
At least in SE, outdated and poorly optimized as it may be, I am loading into the map once and then could fly from earth to the most remote planet without a single interruption (except real life sleep maybe, because it would take literal hours to make the trip without a jump drive).
Se for me has exactly the same issue as NMS. No story, no person-to-person combat, no side quests. Just an empty world you're expected to populate yourself I guess. Starfield definitely doesn't do that as well, it isn't as much a Minecraft style sandbox. If nms or se had quests and story, I might not like starfield this much... but they don't, and there really isn't another space sim that also provides a decent shooter and rpg while having a nice open world.
I got extremely bored and frustrated playing NMS. I'm glad other people like it, but for whatever reason it felt like an unrewarding slog for me.
Depending on when you player, it's generally a very different game every 2 years or so, but it's still not perfect. I actually just posted a big rant about it upthread.
