I'll be downvoted to oblivion for this, but I think it's perfectly fine.

Is it the greatest thing I've ever played? No, but not every game has to be the best game since Ocarina of Time.

I'm 67 hours in and still enjoying it, and I arguably haven't gotten into the really time consuming stuff like Outpost or Ship building.

It's a piece of media-consume it or don't, but don't let the internet make your mind up for you in either direction.

Same here. I played about 120-ish hours, into NG+1, I have really enjoyed the game. It's almost certainly my favorite Bethesda game (which I've played since Morrowind, I didn't hit up Daggerfall or Arena.). It has an aesthetic that I am a huge fan of, and we don't see very often in games. The only thing that really disappointed me about the game is the main quest, I felt like the questions were more interesting than the answers. If anything I feel like the community has been weirdly critical of the game, and many of the complaints seem like they're coming from people who haven't played it. But I'm not terribly surprised. Every Bethesda game since Morrowind has had a huge number of people complaining and saying that it didn't live up to their standards. That isn't to say there aren't valid criticisms. There are things I think will improve after some patching and expansions, same as every other game they've put out.
