I think they've been putting out very similar games since like fallout 3. If that's what you are looking for, it's fun. People for some reason seem to put unrealistic expectations on things. I assume this game is just improved graphics fallout 3 in space. Which isn't a bad thing, but if you expect a revolutionary game you are in for disappointment.
Some of my friends played and immediately hated it and brought up comparisons to newer games, but this isn't the new Unreal engine, this is the same Creation Engine they've been using for 11 years, which is based on the 26yr old gamebryo engine.
Personally as someone who loves Bethesda games, and who understands the limitations of the engine, I am thoroughly enjoying myself, will it beat bg3 for goty? Unlikely, but it's still fun
At some point they gotta ditch the Creation engine and make a new one from scratch. The reason Halo Infinite ended up being a turd was because of its engine.
TES6 is confirmed to be using Creation Engine as well... That's like 4 or 5 years down the line. Think of that
That's about what I was expecting, glad to hear it's mostly true. I'll be able to play it in a couple days
