Starfield: Shattered Space, the first major expansion for Bethesda’s flagship 2023 game, failed to live up to expectations in the eyes of many fans.

Recently, Bethesda Game Studios design director Emil Pagliarulo responded to some of the backlash for Shattered Space, which itself became the source of criticism of the game and the company at large.
