base building and crafting both suck in FO4 and actually made the game worse, I'll give you exploration though.

Unfortunately exploration and the sense of discovery and wonder is what makes Bethesda games shine. It just isn’t fun to explore in Starfield. I also think crafting is better in Fallout 4. And outpost/settlement creation.

I completely agree with you that exploration and sense of discovery is why most people play their games. I also think that the settlement building took away from that.

I don’t think it’s the settlement building for me. Fallout 4 had a similar system and it didn’t bother me at all. It’s the repeated POI’s and most planets just being reskinned lifeless rocks with absolutely nothing interesting to see or do

I’m just talking about FO4 in comparison to FO3 and FONV. Made for fewer interesting pois in comparison as well. I want a fleshed out sandbox to explore.
