After Starfield: Shattered Space's mixed reviews, Todd Howard wondered if Bethesda should "have waited to put buggies out" (www.gamesradar.com)

Not that I specifically disagree with anything you said. But reviewers loved to call Skyrim "as wide as an ocean, but as deep as a puddle" as well. And while Starfield suffers from a worse case of this, it's hard to argue this hasn't been Bethesda's main problem for a long while now.

Maybe this flaw finally caught up to Bethesda thanks to the march of time. But gotta hand it to em, they had a great run for a team the refuses to change with the times.
