A Bethesda game?  Nah.  Discounting 76's broken launch state, they've been especially kind to them since Morrowind.   

But they’ve never been owned by MS, now they’ll have to suffer the Xbox tax unless they create a genre than can be disqualified from winning anything like AA/Sim games. 

But there are counter-examples to that as well.  Speaking as a Halo fan, I think critics were quite nice to Infinite.  I loved my time with it at launch too, but not having Forge nor co-op was a fair sticking point when weighing someone's overall score.  Having it hover in the high 80's doesn't suggest a tax.  

Plus, The Coalition's Gears titles are given a fair shake.
