Introducing vehicles is supremely weird because it's the type of feature that, if it were ever going to be a thing, should have been done in early development. It would have to have been decided on extremely early on so that planets could be built around it. I don't understand this model of game development at all.
It's weird enough that BG3 is still adding scenes and quest solutions in patches after the alleged "final release", but at least they're relatively minor things and BG3 was essentially feature complete. Adding entire modes of gameplay like this in post-release patches is absurd. Are we to take it that they spent like seven years working on half a game, and we're getting the other half drip-fed to us over the course of the next decade, and that the "release version" of Starfield was lacking even basic features so that we have to wait until fucking 2033 to play the actual game? What kind of setup is this?
