Looks like eurogamer added their review to metacritic but unscored so far.
Oddly enough the full review links to the digital foundry performance article by alex bugaga, which doesn't seem to be the case for other games they reviewed, as it's normally done by the non digital foundry eurogamer reviewers (i only checked recent ones)
Let's see how this goes.

"And the winner for most over hyped, underwhelming game is...Starfield."Geoff is going to give Xbox another green award (participation trophy) so Phil wont be sitting in the audience looking like this all night:
Watching all other studios get an award another year except for Xbox.
"And the award is for the most deranged, cultish, and astroturf fanbase goes to...Mr. Phil Spencer!"
those *xbox* sites that reviewed it with 10/10 or 9/10 will put it in their list!At 84 it won't be in any Top 10 list at the end of the year. There's way too many better games. You would be biased to include Cacafield.
I'm checking you Geoff
Putting together a top ten list for an Xbox-centric site would be very difficult if it was limited to first-party releases!
LMAO! So Starfield and Baldur's Gate 3 two games which are both wait for it.........Western RPGs can't be compared? The copium from these guys is god tier. All they're doing is throwing anything to the wall for the short term cause they know deep down Starfield's reception was just ok-good and not the mic drop that they were hoping. They're not ready to admit it yet.
Horrific. When I click on top critics' picks, it brings their all time list up, with Zelda OOT at the top. There's no world in which OOT is anything but below average these days.
I disagree. For its time, it was literally the best game ever made. Not only was it a perfect template from transitioning from 2D to 3D, but literally every aspect of the game from music, art direction, story, gameplay, lore, and world design was perfect. Its dated now, but its impact at the time cant be understated.
One of the best games ever created.
Holds surprising well today.
Even in today standard it should be 90+ meta easily.
Cyberpunk reached over a mullion 3 years ago, Elden Ring was over 950000 last year ( and everybody know that Soulsgames are niche !
), Hogwart Legacy is little shy of 900000 this year even after being boicotted... Sure, 1 nillions is reeeaaaally hard, but it is not an unachieveble number....You just need to be a WAY better game then Starfield

But looks like they've didn’t expected a low scores from IGN and Gamespot. LOL
Surely for next Bethesda game they won't receive a review copy. LOL
It was shit in 1998, even worse shit by modern standards, but the Nintendo Boost is real.
so far this year the top games are:
1 - Starfield
tied on second position:
Forza and Redfall
The sky is the limit, even then Starfield goes much further if you're willing to put up with the menus and loading screens!
I didn't say anything about its reception at the time. I don't want to see it on top lists if I'm looking for top games to play right now.
.
Then again, if you only release 10 games for your platform in a year, they are automatically all top-10 releases! It's the N64 strategy!
I don't see the point, the Horizon games are great games in and of themselves.
Zelda, well... it's current Zelda and Slden Ring is a From game... They're all open world I believe, but that's it.
Obvisouly BG3 is not in space, but it's a modern wrpg with all the fea tures it needs and it's not broken! Starfield is a wrpg full of broken promises and it's a step backward in many ways, even when compared to games from the same people!
Another one.

Starfield (Xbox Series X) REVIEW - Strange Space
Bethesda's latest massive RPG, Starfield, has plenty of delights in the vast expanse of space, but it's not all sunshine and nebulas.
