I think there was an elder scrolls game that used procedural generation for a lot of the map but all the important areas were hand made. There’s no way they can hand make a galaxy full of planets without sacrificing something important somewhere. Why can’t they just procedurally generate some of it?
in the post-no man’s sky era, “procgen” kind of has a bit of a bad rap unfortunately. as wary as i am of starfield (i don’t think it will be good), their method of using procgen for the broader world and handcrafting specific zones seems like the way to go
