Yes, a game that could not implement vehicle even tough they have had horses in earlier iteration of the engine... There were so many other ways they could have hacked something that at least would seem a bit more innovative even if forced to use that old engine.
When people complained about all the empty planets, Bethesda told them to think about the real-life astronauts who explored our own moon.
Those real-life astronauts had lunar rovers.
Haha, Bethesda also forgot the lunar landing games mechanic and used a cutscene instead
Would real scientists actually pack up an electric jeep, and send it to another planet? Does this sound like something that actually happened outside of a sound stage? Why would they do that? to play golf and drive about?
The moon is big you fucking weirdo.
Yes. And we traveled through the van allen belt in a tin can. That had a jeep in it. Because space travel is super cheap and easy.
Even modders had figured out how to get vehicles working. Bethesda was like nope too hard we'll do it in a DLC.
Proably consider to try once more and get the Mod Store up and running, Imagine a future where you as a company do not need to pay any devs, nor QA and only take a cut on every transaction, this is the Bethesda goal
Hilariously, the starfield ships are a rehash of the sailing ships you could buy way back in their 1996 release Daggerfall. Just like in starfield, the ship couldn't actually move and was just a place you could fast travel to and from.
Considering their engine's been upgraded once since then and not replaced...
I am not surprised.
