Yes, but...

So many things to complain about, but ultimately it's still a decent game. Decent... but not Great.

My biggest gripe is how often you have to go through loading screens... the entire game was designed around fast travel, and unfortunately due to this everything is behind loading screens. The rest of the gameplay (once you get to it) is ok.

The Enemy AI is just as stupid as every other Bethesda game, so don't expect too much there.

Space combat is straightforward, shoot enemy ship until they explode, before they explode you. Very little depth. Tons of weapons to choose from for flavor, but you can only ever utilize 3 types at any given moment.

Plenty of side quests to do, but most of them are anywhere from 1 to 3 steps. Not very many epic saga's to embark upon. Most rewards are pitiful and ultimately meaningless. Reputation is non-existent and irrelevant. If you want to be a pirate you just pay a credit fee to walk in the towns again... really lame.

Mod support is lacking, and in fact Bethesda went out of their way to make modding for the game a royal pain.
Creation Club is a joke. $7 to buy 1 quest to get just a unique skin which you will never use because its pointless.

The only reason I say yes, is because it's at least 40 hours + of content for a standard price. It's worth playing. If you liked the other Bethesda titles, then you will like this one as it plays exactly the same.
