Yup, that's why I didn't buy it. I liked Morrowind because it was fresh at the time (pretty good side content, okay story), thought Skyrim was lame because it was just shallower Morrowind (worse everything except graphics). I tried one of the Fallout games and it wasn't my thing (worse character creation vs Morrowind, mediocre story, repetitive).
So I figured Starfield was going to be similar to those games, as in lots of hype with a mediocre delivery. And it seems I was right. Initial reviews praised things I don't care about and criticized things I do. So I'm glad I didn't buy into the hype.
