Starfield is not out of the woods yet there's already a random hater who thinks that its in-game graphics suck badly.

In fact, what he saw were not real photos from the role-playing game (RPG). The images originally came from NASA's actual shot of Martian land.

The random person thought that Starfield's visuals for Mars suck when in fact it's an original NASA photo.

Starfield, one of the most awaited space-based games across gaming platforms, is coming soon on PC, Xbox, and other consoles.

Although it's not yet officially released to the public, there's already a hater who quickly criticizes the game's bad graphics.

As spotted by Dexerto on Wednesday, Aug. 30, a Starfield hater reportedly mistaken some Mars photos snapped by NASA's rover for the actual in-game graphics.

Over Reddit, many lambasted the Redditor, suggesting that what he's seeing is not always true. Some people said that other gamers who already have early access should avoid spoiling the game's story.

Other Redditors urged that players should verify the source of the image before posting reviews or comments. Not all space-related photos are included in Starfield.

You cannot go to these "planets" because exploration was a lie.

"Earth has outdated graphics, it's literally billions of years old and it still looks the same just with some addons," one person wrote.

A tweet from @DoWhatYouDo6 showed that the players couldn't go to the planets because the whole exploration was bogus.
