I feel like the only really good Bethesda game besides Skyrim that I've played is Dishonored, and coincidentally that's the one developer/studio that Bethesda decided to close down

    Haven't you tried previous elder scrolls ? Oblivion ? Morrowind ?

    Nope. My first Elder Scrolls was Skyrim. My first Fallout was 4, which felt kinda meh.

    EDIT for better context: I was born in soviet union and we didn't really get western games, only some specific ones that got translated like Might of Magic 6-8

    Dishonored is from Arkane: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arkane_Studios#Games_developed

    I'd highly recommend Dishonored 2, Prey, and Deathloop as well. You will love them if you like Dishonored 1.


    As for being Bethesda... it's confusing.

    There's Bethesda Softworks, which is a giant publisher, a 'brand' with a bunch of studios under them. Including Arkane.

    Then there's Bethesda Game Studios, the game dev, owned by Bethesda Softworks. When most gamers say 'Bethesda', they're usually referring to BGS, as they're the ones that make the Elder Scrolls/Fallout games, as well as Starfield.

    ...And just to add to the confusion, all this was bought by Microsoft.
