Starfield's planets aren't all interesting, but they're not all "supposed to be Disney World" (www.vg247.com)

You'll probably find that a lot of planets in Starfield are pretty boring, but Bethesda says that's kind of the point.

I do wish I had a ground vehicle yeah.

I spent five hours exploring Nesoi where my house is yesterday, largely so long because there were a few unique biomes to check out and then I happened on a random quest that had interesting stories and voiced lore snippets and things, and took me some time to complete. Also hooked into another off world quest that I'm not done yet but has been really fun.

I would put it on a very similar level to NMS, in that the world does get samey after a while... But there are biomes on the planet, so at least I can find mountains and deserts and things. Looking forward to whatever mods or dlc increase the baseline biodiversity on lush worlds but I think five hours contendedly exploring a single planet is a pretty good stat at launch to be honest. Plus the quests are actually fun and good and there's combat with more than one kind of enemy.
