I'd argue that Skyrim represents a significant downgrade from earlier titles. The simplified mechanics and increased advertising budget made it more accessible, but the writing quality has been in free fall since morrowind.

That being said, this is probably their prettiest title now. I haven't gotten to try it yet, but supposedly it is a ground up remake, and if it's on a better engine it may be their least janky game too.
