It's not like they don't know how to make a good game. They don't have to reinvent the wheel. Take Skyrim, make a new land with new characters and new quests, make it 4 times as pretty, fix the biggest bugs. Maybe make the quests a smidge more complex. Boom.

I love how you can probably accurately guess someone's age by if they think Skyrim was the best Bethesda game. It was bland and boring, but pretty, in my opinion.
