Unlikely. Bethesda has carved out a slot for itself as one of the most popular and profitable devs. Starfield sold extremely well, even though the reviews and hype have seemingly crashed down back to earth now. My point being they can get away with mediocrity, unfortunately

Bandwagoning doesn't help. You ever like a band until everyone kept telling you they sucked? Ever met a Nickelback fan that doesn't feel weird about it? Adult Bieber fan? Guy that's really into the music of Taylor Swift?

Following the crowd is a compelling urge, we're literally wired to do that mentally.
