The original ES creators are long gone. At one point one of them even said he's happy the company is successful but the games are not games he would have made.

Todd and Pete Hines have said before their goal is to streamline everything in each game more than the last. That also leads into their you must be able to win everything philosophy that dumbs each game down even further.

Thankfully there's ESO. They actually have good writers on that. It's probably the last good elder scrolls game, unless something drastic changes within Bethesda.
