The engine really isn't suited for the kind of game Starfield wants to be, so it really works against it. But you're right, even if it were a new shiny engine with the same writing and characters, it would still suck. Likewise, if it had the same creaky engine but actual good stories and characters the constant loading would be easier to overlook. It just has the worst of both worlds.
