    It’s an engine limitation. The Engine that Bethesda holds onto with an iron fist is what hampers their games.

    However, the opposite side of the coin is, that it makes them super easy to modify, so people can make their own additions. Because Starfield is using the same engine as Skyrim and Fallout 4.

      I don’t know if a better, modded flight system would be possible really. That looks like something so ingrained into the foundation of Starfield it would have had to be changed during production

      This is why I cut them slack. I’d rather have the clunky mechanics than lose the vibrant modding platform.
