Yeah, this is true. I think Bethesda games have just felt really empty and lifeless to me for a long time. I enjoyed Morrowind a lot. Oblivion I played for a while, but never finished the story. Don't even remember if I ever finished Skyrim, which was obviously massively popular. Same with their Fallout games, it's just been diminishing returns for me. Different strokes, and all that, obviously, they just don't have that secret sauce I crave.
I think part of it is that your character doesn't have any personality; you're some total cipher of a Chosen One, which makes it difficult to form an emotional connection to them, and by extension to any of the NPC's. Some of their NPC's have well-written dialogue, but I sure don't remember any of them.
