It’s a Bethesda game, what did you expect?

They went downhill since 2010 when they first released Skyrim.

Maybe some might say Fallout4 was good, okay, but other than that?

    They went downhill since Morrowind... it was their last game that managed to capture players on its own merits, with zero mods.

    People forget that Bethesda used to be a sports and arcade game developer back in the day and that Elder Scrolls was very much uncharacteristic for them. They tried and made some interesting things for a while but once they hit mainstream they never went back to the interesting stuff. It also means I don't think we'll see an ES6 game worth talking about.

    I actually started with Skyrim:SE, had a super silent heavy armor mage and loved it, then I made something and destroyed my save file;

    [overexaggeration ahead]: A week later I was riding on a unicorn as Waluigi through a HelloKitty cave, throwing spells of NSWF towards everything. Fun times.

    Morrowind was excellent, but I don't think knocking oblivion out is totally fair. Especially when you add the expansions sans horse armor dlc. Martin Septum frowns upon you.
