Yeah, Stanfield doesn't even guarantee consistency like NMS does. Already a couple screen shots around with different encampments for different players on the same terrain/landing site.

SF is also limited to short distance travel from the landing site.

How many people walk around a planet in NMS? Or even fly that much around a single planet? I usually just jump around to a few points of interest then I’m off to the next planet.

NMS provides continuity, and starfield does not. Very different experience. Clip-show of starfield ruins immersion a lot. As example, if you want to go from surface to space, in NMS you summon your ship, go inside, takeoff, fly. With starfield you just select destination, press X and you're there (even if destination is on other planet). At most you can teleport to your ship

They're so different games though that a different experience is warranted.

People play NMS for the seamless planet-to-planet experience and exploring things with you ship.

Starfield is played for it's story and RPG elements, same as every BGS game, not for aimless driving around in a ship from/to space.

I've played Starfield for maybe 20 hours so far, and I'm happy I don't have to manually take off and land, would have been too annoying.

Although it would have been fun to have the option, but it doesn't take away from the main features of the game for me.

I would trade both and ten more of similar titles to experience Outer Wilds one more time
