At this point I have faith that they can pull off both a long wait, and a shit game.

I definitely shared that opinion a few years ago. I found Fallout 4 disappointing, Fallout 76 was a disaster (I've heard people say it's better now, but I still feel like a lot of the design decisions are at odds with Fallout as an IP) and they were making a lot of poor decisions.

But I can't help but be optimistic for Starfield. It's not just the recent presentation that gives me hope; everything I've seen about their approach to it and their design philosophies seems promising to me. I'm sure it'll still have some of that traditional Bethesda jank to it, but I'm more than happy to accept some jank if I get a proper RPG with some good player agency.
