Why is my Starfield so Laggy?
Hey there! Starfield might be lagging due to your system not meeting the game's recommended specs. Double-check if your PC or Xbox is up to date with the latest system updates and drivers. Also, try lowering the graphics settings to see if that helps with performance.

I had the same issue! I found closing background apps and programs helped improve performance. Also, upgrading my RAM did wonders.
Consider checking your internet connection. Sometimes, poor connectivity can add to the lag, especially if you're downloading updates in the background.
Honestly, it's probably because Bethesda games are known for being a bit janky at launch. Just give it some time for patches!
