Are you sure?
Now I gotta google because i specifically remember Todd whatshisface saying each player will encounter unique planets.

this might be the article i read:

Quote:"What we do is we handcraft individual locations, and some of those are placed specifically,” he told the Kinda Funny Xcast. “I should also add that we have done more handcrafting in this game, content-wise, than any game we’ve done.”
In practice, this means that Starfield’s planets will be built using AI when a player travels to them, so two players could visit the same world and be met with a slightly different layout. However, certain hand-crafted locations and questlines will be guaranteed to appear for all visitors.
While the terrain of a planet may vary from save file to save file, the major cities and outposts that have become Bethesda’s trademark will still be scattered around the game to track down.
I guess this means it can be interpreted to where we're both right, but I think it makes me more right than you!
