No one's asking for a "graphical showcase". I'm sick of people defending Bethesda by saying that's just what they do. Literally the only company I see people trot this line out for.
I don't care about Bethesda. As I said I didn't even buy or play this game. Sorry about the wording.
I just feel like it's asinine to say things like "is this the best they can do?" when literally no company puts out their best. And it's asinine to say things like "but they own id software" when id isn't the developer making this game. And it's asinine to expect a company whose games have made gobs of money and sold tens of millions of copies not ~~being a graphical showcase~~ having above average graphics, because why would they suddenly spend time and effort on something they haven't had to do before and still had success?
Focusing on wording is nitpicking. I'm quite sure you understood my point.
