Feels like a fumble to not have a Fallout game coming out rn

Seems insane that we're likely looking at 10+ years before Fallout 5, too

The show is going to have 5 seasons and have been canceled for 5 years before Bethesda cranks out another proper Fallout. I can't believe they wasted so much development time on Starfield. Modern development cycles are borked

It’d be different if Starfield had been amazing, but it wasn’t.

Yeah, I would argue that it's very good. I have over 100 hours in Starfield. But it's just not amazing like the Fallout series has been. It felt like something was missing.

For me personally, the majority of memorable shit in fallout came from me exploring and veering off from my quest and stumbling upon something crazy. That’s almost eliminated in starfield as I just fast travel directly where I need to go. That whole travel to the destination that leads to a 2 hour detour is completely missing unfortunately

Spot on. That’s what made me love Skyrim and fallout. Completely gone in Starfield
