Starfield Takes One Oblivion Feature That Skyrim Skipped to the Next Level

While all Bethesda RPGs share a lot of the same DNA, that’s especially true for the developer’s most recent release Starfield, which seems to take the best parts of both Fallout and The Elder Scrolls, combine them, and put a sci-fi twist on everything, making it simultaneously Bethesda’s most familiar and fresh experience to date. But of all its influences, the most prominent seems to be 2006’s Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, which clearly runs through the vast majority of Starfield‘s many complex mechanics and systems.
