The engine is suited for "the kinds of games that Bethesda makes"

They just dont want to invest the time to overhaul the engine or start from scratch. Even Call of Duty managed to do this.

“Even one of the largest and most well funded game franchises in history did this”

Call of Duty is known for recycling as much as possible to pump out yearly games, I was actually surprised to hear they convinced management to give them time to rebuild the engine.

Besides, doesn’t Bethesda Game Studios have more employees than Infinity Ward?

Elder Scrolls probably fits this category as well - not as much as Call of Duty but Bethesda probably has amongst the best RPG sales of anyone. They sold a hilarious number of copies of Skyrim alone.

Yeah, because Microsoft/ZeniMax/Bethesda is such a small corporation and Fallout/The Elder Scrolls is such an inconsequential, low budget franchise.
