It's ironic because no man's sky does ship combat and ship travel so much better than starfield

The combat feels like it could have gone either stiffer and chunkier like monster hunter or much lighter and responsive like warframe, but it chose the worst of both worlds. So right now you primarily use normal attacks, but they don't have a lot of weight and locks your character into position and attack angle. The skills feel great in terms of weight (stagger, damage, flashiness, etc) but the cool downs spread them very thin early on, so you are mostly attacking normally.
I actually don't like PSO2NGS combat for a similar reason, they lock players into a combo or attack pattern in a game that is all about movement and jumping around.
My two major issues with the fame are how clunky and stiff the combat feels, and how awful the UI is on PC. Animations don't let your attacks move with the camera far, so you end up attacking in the same direction even when you're trying to track something to your side. This feels really bad with niss's ult, because you need to wait between each dash to let the animation reset and give you the direction you actually want to go through.
The UI quite frankly feels like it was made for a phone. Every single choice requires you to hold the confirmation button, the interface itself looks scaled up too much, and the preview model for weapons and characters tends to bug out.
It's legit but the goal (and title of this article) are still decades of research from being realized.
Based on my experience with the navy, it seemed like all the lowest rungs of the ladder are 18 year olds who barely care about their own jobs, let alone politics. You'd see fox news in the chiefs mess but surprisingly little demagoguery below e-3.
Reviewers and writers actually do get a stipend, but it's a token amount like 200 bucks a year. This industry is the most ass backward incentive structure we could possibly create, the only reason writers would provide articles to a journal is literally for the clout.
