The Elder Scrolls Online is partly why Skyrim never got a Fallout: New Vegas-style spin-off, says Bethesda veteran
Former Skyrim co-lead designer Kurt Kuhlmann suggests that The Elder Scrolls Online's ongoing success occupied the fanbase, preventing a Fallout: New Vegas-style spin-off for Skyrim. Kuhlmann also noted that series creator Todd Howard was protective of the franchise, potentially avoiding a situation similar to the perceived rivalry between Bethesda and Obsidian over Fallout games.
