No, it's just shitting on Bethesda.
I don't get that either. Why shit on bathesda? Cause they make enjoyable games?
How about greed and shitty business practices? Or the garbage they called Starfield spelling out the doom of Elder Scrolls? How about their acquisition of Doom, and subsequent re-release of the games in a worse state than they were in 1993? Or any of the Id Software IPs for that matter, they all have Bethesda's greasy fingerprints all over them now. Like nagging you to log in every time you open the game, which does absolutely nothing for you, but probably enables them to sell your data. Or the mandatory "news" sections of their main menus that only serve as an ad page.
There's no shortage of reasons to hate modern day Bethesda these days if you just like....open your eyes?
I haven't played starfield yet. But Oblivion, Skyrim and the 3d Fallouts are my favorite games even without mods. They get open world right!
