Well Starfield is the n-th iteration of Bethesda hacking on their Gamebryo fork, and this has always been true (Fallout 4 - Skyrim - Oblivion). Not that these were bad looking games in their day, but they always kinda ran like dog.
- wongarsu 3y agoThey weren't bad looking, but neither of those games were celebrated as graphical masterpieces either. As far back as I can remember, Bethesda has always made games with behind-the-curve but acceptable graphics, with bad performance and lots of bugs. It's the incredible moddability that justified all of this, with mods elevating those games to great graphics, as well as eventually fixing any other shortcomings.
