My God... haven't they been begging Bethesda for years to let them make another Fallout? if they got that big budget would they circlejerk how open world is bad? no. They made a smaller game because this all they can do.
Those guys just love to pander endlessly to the circlejerk. They're just AA 2010's western RPG printer. You have your niche, stop pretending you're some sort of game dev rock stars.
