That’s not true. RAM usage in open world games depends on how much assets are being loaded. We’ll need an in-depth analysis to determine if it is bad optimization or not
i mean, its bethesda, yo you really expect any kind of optimization ? and at launch at that? its a sad state of affairs but alas, that is how tripl a is nowadays

16gb isn’t really a lot of RAM nowadays, though
it totally is, im not getting old, you’re getting old
I was playing elden ring last year with ram usage around 9gb to 10gb that too on 1080p
You should try booting up Icarus - 32gb get filled up as if you’re using a floppy disk
