Engadget Podcast: Starfield’s failure to launch
Starfield is here! It's just too bad we only like some of it. This week, Devindra chats with Senior Editor Jessica Conditt about Bethesda's latest massive open world title, and why it just feels like Fallout 4 in space. Also, we dive into reports around Nintendo demoing the Switch 2 at Gamescom, and we dream up what our ideal sequel console could be. (Just call it the Super Switch!)
