Sure. But that's a different topic.
Quantitatively, Starfield simply has more hand-crafted content than Skyrim. More and bigger cities/settlements, hand-crafted dungeons, and handcrafted quests. In the map-size cases, it's only slightly more, but in terms of quests, Starfield has about as many hand-crafted quests as Skyrim and Fallout 4 combined.
Now, if you don't enjoy exploring in Starfield, you won't find a lot of those quests (same as Skyrim). Heck, if you don't enjoy the quests themselves at all, that's a thing too. There's a neat hand-crafted quest around every corner... if you're not so bored you just rush the main story. I for one really liked the Neon Street Gang quests and (haven't finished it yet) the Crucible quest chain. Both of them I completely missed in my first playthrough because the game didn't hold my hand to find them.
