Bethesda’s M.O. has always been to release a playable, if not bare and buggy, sandbox and let the modders liven it up and smooth out the experience. The only thing that’s changed is that Starfield is fundamentally not a good game that modders aren’t interested in messing with and would need almost a entire rebuild to get to that point.
I partlially disagree because Skyrim was a fun game without mods. Mods gave it more replayability and elevated it to its iconic status today…but yeah, still a good game (at the time) without them!

Bethesda also haven’t released the mod kit either yet.
Nah, their earlier games had spirit. Oblivion is still one of my favorite open world fantasy games to date.
Starfield is just a soulless recycled scrap for money and hype.
