    Unfortunately, you’re not the only person I’m discussing Starfield with here, and most are trying to tell me that Starfield is objectively bad. I am not “hiding behind” objectivity, I’m arguing that Starfield isn’t “objectively bad”.

      Much like literally, objectively is often used for emphasis, and I hate it, those words shouldn’t be used that way

        I think people here are actually trying to make objective statements about the quality of the game (that is, lack thereof). Though they aren’t really quantifying good reasons to support that high bar.
