Starfield NPCs keep getting bodied mid-sentence and it never isn't funny to me (www.pcgamer.com)

My favorite Bethesda game quirk is how the world keeps trying to kill and maim everyone while they have conversations.

I just started last night, but that was immediately the vibe I was getting. Not a bad thing so far, but I never did finish Skyrim, so I guess I'll see if this goes the same way...

    Bethesda didn't evolve over the past 10 years. They just added some ambient occlusion and increased the resolution of their textures. The game engine was OK when when Skyrim came out, but it's really kind of embarrassing that the exact same issues still remain in 2023.

    I've only finished eg. Skyrim or Fallout 4 both once, but I've got gods know how many zillions of hours in them, especially after installing Sim Settlers 2 for FO4. I like the worlds, I just don't care much about the story and the games don't make me care about the story
