I wish. I got Starfield a month ago and everything is gated like that. Core space combat abilities from the tutorial are gated behind perks. Want to craft? You have to invest 15 levels for guns, then 10 for space suits, then 10 for ships, and on, and on. And there's no getting better just because you do it a lot.

Starfield seems like someone thought Skyrim was too freewheeling so they locked everything down way beyond what's necessary.
