The reason why the Elder Scrolls is the de facto RPG of the last ~20 years is simple: The modding tools. Morrowind / Oblivion / Skyrim are all *ridiculously* easy to mod. Want to make an over-powered weapon? You can do so in minutes. Create a new hut somewhere in the wilderness? Done. Add a room to a dungeon? Easier than falling off of a chair.

Why hasn't anyone challenged them on this business model? It is as though the gaming community is ceding them the first-person RPG category.

I honestly thought that "The Outer Worlds" was going to make an attempt at dethroning Bethesda and the Elder Scrolls monopoly but they released their game without any modding support and... It failed as expected. Other RPGs have also gone the "No modding support" route as well.

So why hasn't anyone challenged Bethesda yet on this one aspect of their business model?

because if a small team were to make a betheda game they would need mororwind grahpics or it would be to expensive without croudfunding. 

normies and your average slop loving consoomer are too retarded, and dont have souls which stops them from having an imagination, so they require realism to be immersed
