    You say that as if Unreal Engine gets a ground-up rewrite for every single version.

    Code gets upgraded and adapted over time. And the Creation Engine is no different.

      Yes and no. Bugs can be enshrined into core architecture where fixing bugs causes breaking changes.

      Clearly their game engine is showing its age and needs some redesign. They are reaching the limits of what they can do within the current architecture.

        Go play Starfield. The story may be bland, but they’ve crammed tons of updated tech in it, and it lived up to the claims of being the least buggy Besthesda release ever

    Elder Scrolls IV used the Gamebryo engine, which is the predecessor/basis of the Creation engine.
