This is obviously a huge deal, but the more I think about the less this really means to me personally. Bethesda has so few games that I actually care about that Xbox buying the company is somewhat irrelevant. There's Dishonored, which I greatly enjoy, and then Doom and Wolfenstein, which are good but not exactly games that I go out of my way to play. Other than that, there's not really all that much that changes for me as far as games I buy.

I think titles like Dishonored, Doom, Wolfenstein, etc, while good in their own right, don't really move the needle for the Xbox brand. However, the Fallout & Elder Scrolls IP's are huge and can move a ton of systems/subscriptions. 

I agree, they just don't mean much to me personally. Fallout and Elder Scrolls are without question the most important part of this acquisition, I just don't really care about either one, so Bethesda now being part of Xbox won't get me to buy an Xbox any more than before.
