You should probably make this thread in a few years
Not even in a few years really. Sony will likely recoup their purchase price on Insomniac in a year or 2. For ZeniMax it's probably gonna take upwards of a decade.

That’s my point, Zenimax hasn’t produced anything for Xbox yet and this is no surprise. Microsoft isn’t in this for quick cash. This is long term

Bethesda hasn't had a hit since skyrim and doom and majority of there games are trash and buggy as shyt. Insominiac keeps getting better and better each time they drop a game.

Insomniac is a good developer but that's it. Ratchet and Clank ain't on Mario's level.

But still we need to see if current Bethesda was worth the purchase.

Bethesda has more well known I.P like Elder scrolls and Doom.
Maybe if Insomniac is allowed to grow and have multiple teams that
can develop several games at the same time , it might be equal.
Doom isn't part of Bethesda. It's a Zenimax IP.

Spider-Man 2 alone from Insomniac will be bigger and sell more this gen than any game Zenimax studios put out including Starfield, Fallout the next Elder Scrolls.
