    Starfield advertised something like “Bethesdas first new universe in 25+ years” (paraphrasing)

    That is not a good thing.

      Hypothetically I don’t see a problem with things like a new entry in Elder Scrolls. The problem (to me) seems more like constantly remaking Skyrim into new editions and for each new console.

        constantly remaking Skyrim into new editions

        That’s pretty much Starfield in a nutshell, Skyrim in space. Don’t get me wrong it’s a fun game but it’s basically reskinned Skyrim with a few new systems bolted on. I’m also noticing some reused assets from Fallout, pretty sure the noise the scanner makes when opening is the same as opening the PipBoy.

          I’m quite happy with starfield, but I did notice some reused noises definitely. I’m not sure that I particularly mind though
