If a significant amount of people "misunderstood" you, it's not their fault, but yours for not clearly communicating or not tailoring your communication for the target audience.

I find this ironic, because even the tutorials in the game only communicate half of the information you need. A lot of them just outright expect you to have played one of their games before. I could imagine if this was someone's first Bethesda RPG, they'd be confused as hell. Plus there are a few things unique to Starfield that are confusing even if you've played every one of their games before.
