If you had told 23-year-old me that the brand new copy of Skyrim I was holding would be the last mainline Elder Scrolls game I’d play until I was in my 40s, I would have kicked you out of my house.

There’s always Blades, I guess…

    I’m a little out of the loop, what has Bethesda seriously produced since Skyrim other than FO4, FO76, and Starfield?

    It seems crazy that such a well known studio wouldn’t have more successful releases in the past 12 years.

      I’m not sure what the distribution of resources has been on the design-side of things at Bethesda, but they’ve had some kind of hand in the following games since Skyrim:

      • Elder Scrolls Legends
      • Elder Scrolls Online
      • Elder Scrolls Blades
      • Fallout Shelter
      • Dishonored
      • Redfall
      • A Million Different Skyrim Iterations

      I know several of those are strictly under the Bethesda Softworks publishing side of things, but even on New Vegas the game design branch helped out here and there. I imagine they’ve been overloaded with working on how complicated Starfield actually is.

      Still, it’s a little bizarre that things have only been taking longer and longer as time goes by.
