Bethesda can't do models/animations.

Seriously, if all the animations/models have that uncanny vally look to them (which in my mind is basically the de facto Bethesda aesthetic) then I would be very unhappy.

To be fair, I (at least) didn't get New Vegas (or FO3, or Oblivion, or Skyrim) with the expectation of them being super-hard survival RPGs. I got them because I wanted to shoot and stab lots of things with lots of other things. Going into a Bethesda game with the expectation of it being anything other than a buggy hack'n'slash action game is a tad foolish. S'not to say that they're a bad dev, just a very predictable one.

Of course, people should know what they are going to buy, and if you want a buggy shoot and stab simulator than Bethesda are fine. But most of the problem people are having is that Stalker is not a buggy shoot-and-stab simulator, and they are worried that that is what they will turn it into. The concern is not with it being a Bethesda product, its with it becomming a Bethesda product.
