  1. How much reliant is it on combat and shooting? Starfield for example was too reliant on shooting in my opinion. In fact, space "exploration" and "RPG" felt like afterthoughts.
  2. Any good mod suggestions? I am not looking for anything too fancy but QoL and bugfix mods are appreciated.

Then how is Fallout 4 made by Bethesda? And why did Obsidian make Outer Worlds?

I think Bethesda owns the IP for the Fallout franchise since 3. Sometimes companies just license out sequels to another development studio.

Obsidian has made many sequels to popular RPGs from other developers like KotOR 2 (Bioware made KotOR) and Neverwinter Nights 2 (Bioware made Neverwinter Nights).

Obsidian also makes games based on it's own original IP like Pillars of Eternity, Alpha Protocol, Tyranny, etc. It's a great studio with lots of fun games!

Black Isle was the original Fallout developer. Before they shuttered, some of the most influential devs formed Obsidian, and years later Bethesda eventually ended up with the rights to Fallout. Bethesda made Fallout 3, 4, and I think 76 too unless that was a different external studio, Obsidian was contracted to make New Vegas using Bethesda's game engine.
