The problem is that starfield is modern warfare III of Bethesda but people trying to see it as next skyrim, Bethesda ai generated almost all this game and looped it in roguelite shape, the only things evolved is mechanics as you've said yourself, and again as you've said yourself, this game will be saved by modders

Procedural generation is not AI, don't spew nonsense.

The world is now full of technology that used to have real names, but is now called AI so that investors spunk themselves as they high five each other in shareholder meetings.

Oh I'm anti-Bethesda and Bethesda practices, I'm just sure it will eventually be a great game once the community steps in and fixes it. It isn't an excuse for Bethesda, but rather admiration for the modding community, and an example of why FOSS and a rejection of the profit motive is so good.

I agree with you) communities solve everything

i dont know why people shit on bethesda for "letting modders fix the game"

i dont really know any other developer that embraces the modding community as much as bethesda does, and i wish other games had the same amount of modding capability that bethesda games do

I think it's fully possible to criticize Bethesda's incomplete and highly flawed game design and praise their willingness to support the modding community with great tools at the same time.
