When do you mean "never", I guess you never count their FPS games (Wolfenstein, Wolfenstein II, Wolfenstein Young Blood - by Arkane, Doom or Doom Eternal)

He said core Bethesda, which I presume he means that actual Bethesda game studio, in which case he would be correct. Oblivion, Fallout 3, Skyrim, and Fallout 4 all launched at 30fps on console, and none of these games ran at 60fps on consoles until next gen backwards compatibility features enabled it, or Bethesda themselves released a next gen performance patch. 

If Starfield launches at 60fps on even the series X, that would be a console first for the studio. And if it does happen, I would expect no more than 1080p. Skyrim is a nearly 12 year old game and still struggles to maintain a locked 60 in sections of the game on PS5 and Series X, and it’s the same story for Fallout 4. 

Klobrille made a good point yesterday that Bethesda has never spoken about 60fps for Starfield either or promised it unlike Redfall which is why the controversy is bigger for Redfall and shouldn't really be applied to Starfield if it ends up being 30fps.

I'd be shocked and I agree with you, if it has 60fps, I'd only expect 1080p. And honestly if it's 1080p/60fps, I'd likely choose the 30fps mode at higher graphical settings because like I said, I don't think I'll care about 60fps on Starfield but looking at the beauty of space 😌
