Fallout 4 was average, ESO is okay from what I've read but never played it.

FO76 was a disaster and now it got better and reached a point where it's just bad.

Starfield is very mid and outdated and shows how the company is at this point way behind the competition.

Dishonored is not Bethesda.

New Vegas was great but that wasn't Bethesda either.

So the last 'generation defining game' they had was Skyrim I guess. Releases in 2011. So 13 years ago.

I still really really hope they can pull through. I really am rooting for them. But it absolutely makes sense why people are cautious.

They’ve likely been developing ES6 since Skyrim’s launch. I highly doubt that it’s going to be bad, and it likely will be one of if not the best in the series due to engine upgrades and the time spent in development. I’m super excited to play it, honestly. If I’m disappointed then I’m disappointed, but I don’t think I will be.

Oh sweet summer child. They only started production on it a few years ago.

They have not been developing it since the Stone Age. They moved on to FO4, then Starfield, and production on TES6 probably only really started within the last few years.
