I haven't bought Skyrim in any form since Todd Howard trotted it out in a horse cart back in 2011. Why would I bother buying Bethesda's creative nadir now? More games have come and gone that do everything that Skyrim does and better, especially without the jank floating over your head.
Most people already tire of wandering around in Assasin's Creed, which are the size of a quaint village at 2 km2. Skyrim is 37 km2. Pittsburgh is 151.12 km2. And Daggerfall is 161,600 km2. So if I ever have a need of wanderlust, I think I know where to go. Especially since there's a version of it which actually fixes the outstanding bugs and issues with it.
Instead of this nth release which still has that bug where you can end up going over a rock in your free ride to Skyrim and well that's your start already grinding to a halt since Bethesda didn't program a safety or fallback in case the physics bug out.
"Hey, they're taking a while. Think we should sneak out?" or "Damn these inscrutable public roads! Alright you, we'll walk if we have to!" Perhaps not an easy thing to implement (but who am I kidding, people had put Thomas the Tank Engine in within weeks of release), they have had a decade to fix outstanding bugs, and instead we get paid mods.
And those mods aren't even the helpful quality of life mods or "prevents your game from corrupting because you took this quest" fixes.
