Top Comments of this video!! :3
I get that dev doesn't like a fellow dev getting shit on, but the comparison is anything but "fake and harmful" because it's spot on. CP2077 got that comparison to GTA5 a lot back then and no one said it's "fake and harmful". Probably he's just salty because the comparison vid brings back a lot of bad memories.

I actually really liked the comparison of Starfield to some of the old GTA games, like some of them were REALLY old games and had more reactivity. I think there is no problem comparing games, as long as the footage is accurate (not doctored or faked) and there are similarities between the games... like you can't logically compare turn-based game footage to action combat footage... cause that's just silly - of course they are different. But you can compare a story from one game to another, or writing or acting etc, cause stories are stories, regardless of the gameplay elements around them. Also, lets remember Patrick Mills is a dude that works at CDPR, likely he speaks for himself and not necessarily for the company as a whole. I think he generally has a lot of hot takes on Twitter haha!

I played starfield for about 20 hours on game pass before phantom liberty's release. once i started cyber punk i was completely hooked and realized i've wasted 20 hours on starfield because i was trying so so hard to enjoy starfield, like many other fans of bethesda. there is this lower bar we accept because we have fond memories of bethasda games when they were great.

I love Starfield and am much more forgiving of the game, but I knew exactly what I was getting into when I bought the game. That being said, these complaints and comparisons about the game are 100% accurate. The only thing "harmful" here is these devs shytty and lazy attitude. From an objective point of view starfield IS very much a "mid" game, there's nothing wrong with pointing out its flaws or wishing it was a better game whether you are currently playing the game or not! As others have pointed out they didnt explain why it was harmful, and also surprising they didnt use buzz words like "fake news" or "toxic". I'll be waiting by for the inevitable "I received death threats" sympathy post they'll probably put out!!!

A thoughtful response to the CP2077 developer's defense of Starfield. I agree that it's probably bad form to let your game be used as a cudgel against a fellow developer. As gamers though, I think it's valid we get value for our money. One small stylistic critique: mentioning that the developer hates the comparison once is probably good enough before you dive into your response.

I legit played the old version 1.6 on Saturday, played the new 2.0 update last night. The game is completely overhauled with graphics, UI and even the whole feel of the game is different and less janky in the interactions you have. I couldn’t believe it, felt like I was playing two very different games that’s for sure. Very impressed.

That 'solid and sturdy thirdy' lives rent-free in my head at this point.
Honestly, I get the devs, especially ones like CDPR, who were on the other side of the shitstorm not so long ago, pushing back against those 'one-to-one' comparisons, you can't look me into eyes and tell me it isn't made to just bring people down, directly or indirectly. Intentions doesn't matter when it will be just a vehicle for less articulate people, or ones downright not interested in offering constructive criticism, to point at and laugh.

8:04 I haven't played Starfield, but I've seen facial expressions in videos. Smiles, frowns, raising of eyebrows. Those are facial expressions. So when someone makes a claim like "entirely eliminating body language", I call that a crap take. It's just not true. Criticize, and be accurate with it. Otherwise the criticizer is easy to dismiss.
-- edit, okay the writer apparently meant non-facial body-language. Fair.
