To me it actually felt like a regression.

One of my favorite things in skyrim/oblivion/fallout 4 was environmental storytelling, and this just has none.

This should be bread and butter of immersive gameplay. Show, don't tell. If I want a 1.5k word info dump I'll go to one of my stories on royalroad. Letting me make my own narrative will be more enjoyable for me 95% of the time.
