        Fallout 76 came out five years ago. It’s the only Bethesda game in recent history. (I still really like it)

          Thats not true! Skyrim came out 2 years ago. Before that they had Skyrim which came out 5 years ago, piggybacking off the success of Skyrim which came out 6 years ago. There was also Skyrim back in 2011 which I guess was more than 12 years ago but it feels like just yesterday.

            Skyrim came out on every platform except Linux. That’s a slap in the face.

            In other words, they release games at a similar rate to most AAA developers that aren’t making CoD or yearly sports titles?

          How often do people expect developers to release AAA titles?

          Guerrilla Games released Horizon Forbidden West in 2022, and the only previous title in ‘recent’ history’ was the prequel 5 years earlier.

          Larian released BG3 this year, and the only previous title in recent history was Original Sin 2 was 6 years earlier.
