Yep, as someone who beat it several times, I agree with this. Its a great game, but is unpolished at launch like any bethesda game, 5 years from now it will have memorable gamer cultural references and a consistent modding/playerbase.
With the love of using the game engine to create entirely new games that bethesda fans have, I'm basically expecting a Star Wars/Star Trek total overhaul mod within the next decade.
The playerbase already dipped below Skyrim on steam. I really doubt that this game will have the usual Bethesda longevity.
While that's definitely possible, Bethesda games always take unpredictable trajectories.
I wouldn't take it dipping below their most beloved game in player count as it being a flop just yet.
Wow, I consider a game "personally great" if I like it enough to completely finish once.
