I will never understand people like you.
Zenimax? Greedy? Are you high? Have you never looked at the rest of the industry? If Zenimax was Ubisoft, they would have released an Elder Scroll and a Fallout game every year offering little to no improvement from game to game, they would have squeezed every penny they could make from it and thrown it away to start on the next franchise. No let me rephrase that. If Zenimax was Ubisoft, they would have killed both franchises within 10 years. Splinter Cell? Prince of Persia? Those names ring a bell? They used to be big time franchises that they ran into the ground. They were on the verge of doing the same with Assassin's creed.
The made the first Elder Scrolls, Arena, in 1994. We're waiting for Elder scrolls 6. Greedy? Get real.
