LOL, yeah ok, sure. Sound slike another person who worked on Starfield who is upset that it wasn't heralded as the second coming of Christ. Heaping some blame on to Skyrim which he also worked on it just pathetic and frankly unprofessional. Players want quality over quantity in most cases and Bethesda games are an ocean wide but a puddle deep in many aspects is the real problem (and I like their games). They are saved because of the immense replayability, primarily due to their character creation, but even that keeps getting dumbed down each game.
Isn't that what he's saying? Players are getting tired of games like his ones and quantity isn't so much what players want any more. I think it would be pathetic to not mention Skyrim, I'd rather he said that than try to pretend his games/company aren't a part of this.
That's his point yes, I disagree with it. It's that the games being made are bad or at least not good enough that is the issue, not how many are on the market. I doubt anyone really believes that having too many good games to choose to buy cannibalizes the market or is a bad thing. The real issue is that there's just a ton of shit games out there, at least in the AAA gaming space, not that people are burned out on expansive games.
