To some degree, yes. Very few people are playing Skyrim in it's vanilla format, these days. The same is likely true of Fallout 4.

I enjoyed Starfield but it's definitely missing something Skyrim had which made me continue playing after I completed the MSQ.

I've put close to 500 hours into vanilla Cyberpunk but only around 80 into Starfield. My classic Skyrim, which I did play mostly vanilla, was roughly 250 hours. Where special edition is around 1500 hours purely due to mods.

But I already know I'm not chomping at the bit to mod Starfield like I was other games.
