Elder Scrolls The Elder Scrolls VI - officially announced but you'll have to wait

[vonAchdorf]

They did announce it (and starfield) as single player though.

I don't imagine a very positive reaction if Bethesda offers anything less than full mod support, especially with all the paranoia that the Creation Club would mean the "death of modding".

Someone did a good analysis of the trailer.

They concluded that the screenshot was near the border of Hammerfell and High Rock.

So two provinces in one game maybe?

Can you link that analysis? I have also thought about it and found the 3 tounges of land in the trailer interesting:

Maybe it is indeed Hammerfell? That said - I'd be fine with Hammerfell as well.

 

[Okagron]

Morrowind is arguably the worst TES game and Oblivion is arguably the best. Im getting so sick of these fangays I think I'm going to make a long ass shit post to settle this once and for all.

Just so everybody knows, this idiot claims he played Morrowind for like 10 hours (and that is if even played it in the first place) and says the whole game is shit because a NPC told him that he needs to defend himself if he wants to survive in the wilderness. And also says the combat is shit and all quests are nothing but fetch quests.

So, pretty much ignore everything he says because he clearly doesn't know what he's talking about.

It takes place near water and mountains.

Ah - I found the analysis Curious_Tongue mentioned:



Very good analysis. I'm convinced. It's Hammerfell. Awesome!

Ah - I found the analysis Curious_Tongue mentioned:



Very good analysis. I'm convinced. It's Hammerfell. Awesome!

I can't wait for Bethesda to pull an Oblivion and render all this painstaking analysis completely pointless in retrospect.

 

[Tel Velothi]

This analysis assume that Bethesda will keep attention to lore and other details such as sun position. I very much doubt that.

 

[Agame]

My guess is it's gonna be the whole of Tamriel AND/OR online multiplayer.
Like Ultima Online kind of sandbox.

(remember, they talked about technology having to catch up to their ideas. I first thought VR, but that doesn't seem as likely.)

Never gonna happen, first they already have ESO so what is the point? Second they can keep cranking out each province of Tamriel as a game over the next 20 years in this fashion and keep the gravy train going. Though Bethesda seems terrified of doing anything other than super generic western medieval fantasy land, so who knows if we will ever see interesting worldbuilding like Elswyr/Black Marsh. (But considering the imperial province was actually supposed to be jungle they could just fuck up those places to...)

I posted this in the Starfield thread but it occurs to me everything applies here

Why is anyone looking forward to this ? It's a bethesda game and by definition shit.

It will be badly written,badly optimised, full of bugs and if fallout 76 is anything to go by will probably include a shitty multiplayer.
Creation club will be integral Todd wants to do away with mods that much was clear with 76 and let's be honest do mods really save any bethesda game anyway ?

How many of us have spent hours downloading the finest boob physic,armor,weapon,texture,quest and game overhaul mods made them all work together nicely and then start the game and go this is still shit ?
Not only that start all over again and again and again with different mods hoping this time it will be better ? Isn't this a definition of insanity.

It's pointless, no more will I play this barren fucktard shit.

 

[Wunderbar]

I don't think it was Todd's decision about multiplayer (or paid mods). He's just making singleplayer popamole games with arguably good open-world exploration and dumbed down rpg-mechanics.

Higher-up at Zenimax: - hey Todd, multiplayer survival games are hot right now, and fallout 4 sold gangbusters, let's make online fallout
Todd: - but i'm making starfield, and it is impossible to do multiplayer in our old janky engine
Higher-up at Zenimax: - we have some people in failed battlecry studios, let them do it. All you have to do is to say sweet little lies on E3, i'll mark the location on your map
Todd: - yes / yes / sarcastic yes / maybe later

 

[Oracsbox]

When fallout 76 makes big money from micro transactions and it will does anyone really think it won't be in every game from now on.Wouldn't moving to a new game engine also help cement that,the only mods allowed would be Bethesda's.

 

[theSavant]

I can already imagine the plot:

Thousands of wild and beastly Rapefugees Redguards invade the northern part of the country.
You can choose to either support the invaders or take the last stand in the cities surrounded by rapefugees.

Damn... this could be a really interesting one...

 

[DalekFlay]

Not only do I think Hammerfell (or maybe Hammerfell AND High Rock) lines up with the teaser visually, I also think Bethesda tends to tease their next game in the previous one and Hammerfell was teased with them being the last holdouts against the Thalmor.

 

[Oracsbox]

It's bound to be Hammerfell,muh diversity,wakanda,we wuz wizards n shiet,discover how the dwemer and elves stole all their magic and inventions from the redguard.

[Delterius]

if this game lacks modding all we have to do is harness the Full Power of the Nexus® and port it to skyrim

its not like they changed engines

I posted this in the Starfield thread but it occurs to me everything applies here:

Some people watch a car race for the crashes.
