It feels like when Fallout 3, 4 and Skyrim came out you couldn't escape people posting about them for weeks, especially with Skyrim. Now the most I've seen are complaints about how disappointing Starfield was.

Is the game that much blander or does Internet culture just move on that much faster these days? On the other hand, I do feel like there was a lot more enthusiasm for other games like Elden Ring, and sometimes you get an Among Us that just completely take over the Internet.

Honestly I hope the game stays shit and modders don’t fix it. I get doing things out of passion - whether with or without donations/compensation - is the point of modding, but the industry, and especially Bethesda, has taking advantage of people’s good will. Free labor is one thing, but free labor due to negligence is bullshit.
