I don't get it.

People wanted another Bethesda game.

They got what they wanted.

I said in 2008, after playing the first Fallout game by Bethesda instead of Black Isle: "Only Bethesda could manage to make a post apocalyptic prostitute boring."

They've always been boring, they've always had ugly character models, and the writing has always been bad. You get what you paid for. A Bethesda game.

I'm fine with their writing and their overall gameplay. It's just that they managed to make space feel boring and tiny. All those little areas in-between the loading screens really don't feel like a vast space opera at all.

Also I wish they would just invest into some new game mechanics. Proc gen planets look great and exploring them could have been so much fun ๐Ÿฅฒ

Yeah one of the best parts of the game, the planets look great. There's just not much to do on them.
