Why? It has one of the biggest modding communities in gaming, so there's a lot for people to like about it still, assuming they're fine with modding it.

because it's slop. there are so many more games to play that have better writing, direction, characters, environments, exploration, combat, RPG elements, and overall design.

I don't get Bethesda fans insisting on modding bland ass games. you can play a game that's better to begin with.
