It wasn't hated, but faint praise for a main release of one of your biggest IPs is pretty far from infallible. Alarms should have been going off, but they were ignored.
Stop being so disingenuous. It has an 87 on metacritic. It came out to massive acclaim.
Yes it got a full media blitz. That doesn't mean it was well received by players. You can look at the breakdown by time on steam and see significant negative reviews at release. It improved over time.
It sold very well, it got good reviews, and honestly technologically it was a big step forward for Bethesda.
There were many issues with it, it certainly isn’t my favorite Fallout game, but to say “alarms should have been going off” is a bit dramatic.
