Bethesda does make good games, Morrowind was excellent, and Obivion was excellent if it was properly modded (OOO + MMM supermods) And fallout 3 was a fun game, but not as replayable as Fallout 1 or 2. (I think i died once in my fallout 3 first playthough, and that was due to overconfidence.) Fallout New Vegas not only has the good parts of Fallout 3 (and fallout 3 did have some good parts) it patched up the bad parts to make a very good game.
Bethesda is most likely building a RPG with ID technology for the next TES game, at which point they will build fallout 4, or get someone to use their tech to build fallout 4. I don't look down at Bethesda taking over Fallout series, it was a dead series that is now once again a major franchise due to the work Bethesda put in. I know a lot of people who became fallout fans due to 3, and are being mind-blown by New Vegas.
