Everyone talks about the inventory as the biggest issue, which could be better, but it's not my major gripe with Starfield so far.

The leveling system kind of fucking sucks. I do get that this isn't a game where you would max out ever skill category, but instead pick a lane and focus on it. However, there are what feels like necessary game mechanics in each group locked behind skills.

Then you have to do challenges before you can use a skill point to upgrade the skill. I think it would have been better if skills would upgrade only by completing the challenges. Having to do challenges and use a skill point seems like it was designed to prolong the game, but this game is so big with so much to do that seems unneeded.

Anyway, this is mostly a rant because I was gifted a ship and will need to level up 2 more times and complete 2 sets of challenges before I can take it out. :angry:

The leveling is torturous. It's unnecessary padding in a game that's already a little bloated.

Completely agree and I know the ship you were talking about…

I’ve got a tip for this one… go to new Atlantis and the UC vanguard location… get into the pilot simulator…
Go to settings turn it to very easy and beat the 5 round sim a couple times… it’s about 10 ships during those 5 rounds and they count toward the total amount of ships you need to rank up
