How far off is "a long way off". They should the teaser 7 years ago. The same they released the Starfield announcement teaser.
>>725465348It's still in preproduction. You're not going to play it this decade
They got scared after everyone hated starfield
>>725465348We are never seeing this shit. We're likely to get a revival of the fucking Ice Climbers before Elder Scrolls 6 comes out
They need more time to implement boring procedural main quests
>elder scrolls 6 game credits
90% of the game will be AI sloppa. including all the dialogue, characters, and quests. everything will also break ten times more often than most bethesdaslop.
>>725465348He's a coward for not making Starfield after TES VI because he knew it wouldn't get attention, and it didn't anyway
>>725465869brachi pakistan
>>725465348They probably had to scrap everything after the Starfield fiasco
>>725465754Time for Skyrim UE5
>>725465348it means the tech is not there yet, they are probably waiting for the next consoles
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0lNZh734JMwhy hurry when no one else dare to make a skyrim clone?
I can guess that TES6 will be on the next gen consoles. PC will require 70XX cards to play it on ultra. Just wait for it.
Why do these threads get replies when they're riddled with grammar errors?This really is an indian occupied board isn't it?
>>725466046>the tech>the tech is just AI
>>725465880Literally nobody asked for anything that isn't a single player TES or Fallout game. Todd gave us 76 and Starfield instead of games that everyone asked for. TES6 will need to be gangbuster for the whole industry to forgive them. Tomorrow will mark 14 years since Skyrims launch.
>>725465348I am twice as old as I was when this game came out.
>>725465348TES6 is going to be unbelievably shitMorrowind was a flukeDaggerfall is more bugs than gameOblivion is better than Skyrim because the towns and soundtrack are betterMods are all badThe only reason Skyrim was the most successful one is because it had the most marketing behind it. Everything else is irrelevant
>>725465626Good. Maybe don't make a shit game next time.
>>725465348It's only had 2 measly years of production. At this rate, 2028 is the earliest to expect.On that note, get ready for:>procgen deserts and forests to fill out the emptiness of the Hammerfell + High Rock map>coupled with AI-POWERED™ RADIANT™ QUESTS™>laughable scale in any and all 'towns' >linear A to B dungeons>ugly, outdated graphics for its time, while also being overly demanding for its time>utterly Soule™-less music, ranging from generic trailer style OST to arabic yikyakking that will probably be inspired by the Villeneuve Dune OST>beast races will still be human dolls with human animations, just with different heads>lore will be further condensed and laid aside so the dad-gamers can keep up with the melodrama>not one but TWO mechanics to riff off of the FO4 settlement building and Starfield ship-building, just this time with a pirate ship and 1 (one) colony e.g Raven Rock>about five guys voicing the entire boasted 6 gorillion NPCs and all their 6 gorillion dialogues, and then a couple of celebrities to do less than 20 lines for one character
>>725466342Your first day on teh internets? Americans in general type like shit since forever. Brownoids live rent free in your head dude.
>>725465348You just know this game is going to fucking suck, the only reason it will sell is due to Skyrim's long lasting legacy that all normies ate up. Todd is worried they're going to make shit, and they will.
Hopefully it's forever way off.
>>725466601>>utterly Soule™-less music, ranging from generic trailer style OST to arabic yikyakking that will probably be inspired by the Villeneuve Dune OSTthis will be the biggest hit, I think. I can't even listen to the score and imagine I'm playing a better game, unlike Skyrim.
>>725465626They probably did start over lol
>>725466601Their only hope is will rogert
>>725465348>Thank you for your service, Todd. I'll take it from here.
>>725466694i dont think todd really cares, he just needs to make something runnable and the marketing boys will take care of the rest
>they wasted all that time giving us Starfield >a game no one liked and modders don't give a fuck about itTh-thanks Todd..
>>725466879TES4 ost struck to me unlike TES5 but perhaps because TES4 was my first real open world game. TES5 setting wasn't as fun to explore compared to TES4 imo.
>>725467048>Without a friend? Not so fast.
Reminder that only about 100 people made Skyrim and that game is still considered one of the best western RPGs ever made despite its flaws, and still has a huge modding scene.
>>725465348the fact of the matter is that uncs who played skyrim on release are NOT the target audience for tes 6
>>725467301>RPGsbethesda makes those?
Didn't a small gameplay clip get leaked here earlier this year? It honestly looked pretty damn real
>>725467048>degenerate isometric crpg with garbage gameplay nobody ever post in your pathDragon Age Origins mixed with Fallout NV systems would make a better game and now add real time combat with very few Souls mechanics.
>>725467117We'll see, like the poster said below you, not even modders fucked with Starfield, that game is such a husk it's incredible there hasn't been more videos calling it for what it is.
>>725465348We have known since forever that they work on one game at a time. They showed the trailer in 2018 to juice share price for a buyout and reassure fans that the franchise hadn't been abandoned but they literally hadn't done dick by that point and weren't planning to. Starfield released in the second-half of 2023 which means a 4-year cycle would still put the game in late 2027 and more likely 2028 since a franchise of this status is certainly going to get the extended development treatment.
>>725467234Based. Both their next games are going to BTFO TES6 badly, I fear.
>>725467408it was an indian's recording of a Sora AI video on his desktop
>>725465348After such a long time I finally understand TES6 has taken this long simply because Bethesda doesn't actually want to make it
>>725467442>Dragon Age Origins mixed with Fallout NV systems Woah. Faggots mixed with queers
Internal Microsoft memo shows they are targeting 2035 right now for elder scrolls 6.But to be fair that road map also has fallout 5 and fallout 6 BEFORE elder scrolls 6. So it was probably dreamed up by some delusional C suite executive at Microsoft.
What an inept company holy shit. >have *two* IPs that sell gangbusters>last games were over a decade ago [FO76 doesn't count]>spend all your resources making a shitty game [and DLC] no one asked for>seven years after your teaser trailer still having nothing to show for your major IP
>the best companion in any Bethesda game is in their worst one>the DLC with her faction barely features herwhat were they thinking
>>725467595>10 years offWhew just think about how many more Skyrim releases we will get before then.
>>725467595don't they care about our limited lifespans?many fans are going to die before 2035
>>725467585You're mistaken, the lgbbq++ appeared with ME3 then Inquisition. Origins is a crpg that was also on consoles. Origins and NV have consequences to your choices. There's also the original Deus Ex which is a bit older.
>>725465626I'm still mad I trusted Todd about his "dream game"
Two things are likely the case>TES6 was so incredibly bad that Microsoft execs said fuck that and made them go back to the drawing board>Bethesda literally didn't make anything besides the teaser because they knew regardless of what they had finished the IP alone was worth the hassle for any company to buy.
That's unfortunate for fans of TES, but at least Fallout fans and Starfield fans can have some fun during the wait (even though Starfield fans are starved for content updates directly from Bethesda). Plus, TES fans have the Oblivion Remaster, Skyblivion is still in the works, and the original Skyrim is still alive and well with the mods
>>725465348It's gonna be woke shit anyway who cares? Seriously?
>>725466468Compared to older games skyrim is actually playable.
>>725466342>my precious americans couldnt possibly be retarded! its impossiblesad fucking cunt lmao. gonna literally shoot yourself in the foot one day and screech "FUCKIN BROWN"
>>725465348>make a huge hit game the likes of which is rarely seen>proceed to do fuck all with the IP>make boring space game that no one wants insteadIf you had said in 2011 that TES6 still wouldn't be out 14 years later, no one in this world would have believed you. This industry is a joke.
>>725465869How and why would you do this? He even opens and closes his mouth. Does this fucker even know that you get brain parasites from poop?
>>725467867>Oh no our slop is delayed, at least we have reheated slop and old slop to keep us busyHave standards
>>725467861Microsoft execs must have told them it's okay to take as long as they have to, because their assumed target audience is being served Obsidian's RPGs in the meantime.
>>725467934>getting this upset sounds like you're brown
>>725467861how are either of those things likely>yeah they just made a trailer and did nothing for 7 yearsspastic retard board and spastic retard posters
>>725467949I'll give Bethesda points for showing restraint. Not much but it is something however that goodwill is immediately squandered by FO76 and Starfield.
>>725467897Was there any real faggotry in TES? Fantasy racism might be scaled down because of retards on the other hand.
>>725465348Wasn't this shit teased in 2018 or something and it's still a long way off? What the fuck were they thinking?
>>725467957>He even opens and closes his mouthHe is literally surrounded by shit, at some pint your nose would quit and you'd start only breathing through your to stop the constant stench
>Bethesda gets bought out by Microsoft >they make one (one) shit game in all that time >the Xbox brand dies before TESVI even gets officially revealed Kek
>>725468170>your to stopYour mouth *
>>725468028In those 7 years all their resources were tied up with Starfield and Fallout 76. Its legitimately not that crazy to imagine they just depriortized it especially since Skyrim and its re-releases did gangbusters. Zenimax and Bethesda did this last second push because they were trying to juice their portfolios value before selling off the company to microsoft.
The Microsoft buyout was the worst thing that ever happened to Bethesda. Imagine becoming completely free of the consequences of your success or failures, allowing you to do whatever because now you have infinite money from daddy who'll keep you afloat
>>725466601i mean honestly the games get worse every iteration. for any one thing that might be an improvement over the prior one, much more is lost in its place. even by Oblivion the series was an imitation of itself, albeit a good impression. there's no reason to think after their shitty Fallout games, Skyrim milking, and complete shitshow of Starfield, that they have learned or anything or will actually push any facet of their game to be more than just okay. their ambitions have been set so low for way too long.
>>725466938they never started, todd said back then that TES6 would start development only after starfield
>>725468068Fallout 76 has come a long fucking way thougheverbeit. It's unironically a far better game than Fallout 4, even if played solely as a single player experience (always online]
>>725468016Claiming your fellow retarded americans are indians and at the same time jumping to suck their cock is insane mental gymnstics.
>>725465348There's no Jeremy Soule making the soundtrack so I wont even purchase this dogshit based off that injustice alone. No Soule putting SOVL in the soundtrack since Daggerfall= money not stolen.
>>725468276Why did they even let that happen? Bethesda didn't even need Zenimax at this point. They could be fully self sufficient and independent like Valve. Same with Rockstar. Why do these developers even have parent companies when they don't need those corporate suits to print money?
>>725468287they were in pre-production at the very least, as tech being demoed for it was shown off in bits and pieces. most notably that one granny youtuber that got to scan herself and be put into the game eventually.I sincerely doubt it hasn't gone back to the drawing board at least a few times, though. starfield got barraged by criticism from all parties, so whatever they were hoping to learn from that mess probably didn't pan out how they preferred.
>>725468397>canceled for essentially literally nothing Tired of this horseshit. Liberals love destroying art.
>>725468325what the fuck are you talking about browncel
>>725468276This but unironically. Morrowind was made when they were on the verge of bankruptcy so they went all out, they need to feel the fire under their ass to make something that's not slop.
>>725468276Nah, it's probably a good thing. When they were independent Fallout/Elder Scrolls were pretty much holding all of Zenimax afloat so they were pressured to release earlier than they would have liked.
>>725465626This is a good thing.
>>725468470>They could be fully self sufficient and independent like Valve.Not a chance. They don't move enough product for that. As big as these games are, you would be shocked to find that it takes significantly more than that to stay afloat. You need consistent new releases. And I'm only saying this because Valve and CDPR have the benefit of running just from their marketplaces. Bethesda does not have this luxury.
Post the full quote you coward>Todd Howard wants you to know something straight off the bat: The Elder Scrolls 6 is “still a long way off”. The game’s director is sitting in his home office, in Rockville, Maryland, flanked by shelves decorated with game and movie memorabilia. “I’m preaching patience,” he tells me. “I don’t want fans to feel anxious.”
>>725468470Greed and Arrogance. Sometimes the people in charge want to be boughtout from their lifes work so they can retire into the sunset or get a fat payout and still have a job. If I offered you 300 million for your company tommorow, a six figure salary and deep pockets to make any game you want would you take that deal? The reality is most people will always take that deal.
>>725465348>GTAVI announced and, albeit pushed back, releasing next yearGood luck to competitors trying to launch anything right before or right after. bet we won't be seeing Skyrim 2 till 2028 at the very least
>>725465348The game didn't start development until starfield released, so at current pacing, it's probably like 5 years from release.
>>725468549The stupid bitch was proven a liar and SHIThesda was too fucking arrogant to retract their judgement and re-hire Jeremy, I will NEVER purchase anything SHITthesda related for what they did to the composer that put the audiotory SOVL in their game.
>>725468678The odds of Todd's senior ass fucking dying before this game's release are getting higher, he doesn't give a fuck
>>725468489It's 3 years off because BGS takes 4-5 years to make. It's been 2 years in production now. Starfield was quietly killed internally, there's no fanbase remaining.
It was probably almost done but they had to redo the game when they realized they wouldn't be able to fool us with another procgen, useless base building fest like Starfield.
>>725468840You joke but it's very likely some of the reasons Starfield exists was to build and test the tech they planned to use in TES6.
>>725468656Bethesda also doesn't have a storefront or a MMO that was raking in large amounts of cash>inb4 FO76Yes I'm aware of its existence but the game was made literally right before its buyout and its clear it was a multiplayer assetflip to put more Microtransactions on the books to look sexy towards investors. They didn't have a long term MMO plan like Destiny, WoW or any other MMO community that organically came to be.
>>725468814Bruh
>>725466601they probably will use the generation shit for seafaring and random islands
>>725468928See Skyrim Hearthfire DLC being a selling point for Fallout 4. They follow a certain pattern and some trends.>>725468982lmao i can only imagine that less than 500 players are on xbox.
>>725468982https://steamcharts.com/app/374320A 9 year old game has more players
>>725468982Those are terrible numbers for a recent Bethesda game. Stop fooling yourself nobody gives a shit about Saarfield and the only reason Bethesda games have such long half lifes is because of the mod community. Modders didn't even bother with Starfield.
>>725469186Shitfield would've been an actual embarrassing failure if Microsoft didn't propell it on a pedestal to sell GameAss subscriptions
>>725468769was she? i thought that was chris avellone that got out of iti think soule had some other allegations going way back
I will buy TES6 despite Starfield not meeting expectations and people calling me a Bethesdrone and/or Todd himself & telling me it'll be bad "like 76 & Starfield was". I don't care and I'd rather waste & lose my money on my own terms rather than listen to /v/'s opinions and follow their gospel like some NPC.
>>725469316i would rather be an NPC among like minds than a slavepuppet to an entertainment company
>>725469316It will be worth it just for the mods. TES is like the last real modding culture series still going.
>>725467847He's told sweet little lies for a long time, the silly halfling..
>>725468489>they were in pre-production at the very least, as tech being demoed for it was shown off in bits and piecesAll of the preproduction for TES6 is either engine enhancements that were already implemented in Starfield or conceptual documentation. We know how their development pipeline works, none of their asset artists would have been working on TES6 until most of the work was completed on Starfield and the bulk of the team did not transition over until the first year of Starfield post-launch content wrapped up.>starfield got barraged by criticism from all parties, so whatever they were hoping to learn from that mess probably didn't pan out how they preferredThe lesson I learned and what I hoped Bethesda learned is that casuals just fucking hate space games. Most of the stated criticisms were addressed in Shattered Space and people just hated that even more. And then Oblivion Remastered comes out with an overworld that feels more procedurally generated than a Starfield planet and people love it. What am I supposed to take away from that?Well what I see and I hope Bethesda sees is that RPG players are fantasy plebs and if you're going to make a space game, you pretty much have to design it for the space engineer nerds. They tried to casualize the survival sim elements down for a broader RPG audience that was never going to be interested in the game in the first place. My guess is the next Starfield DLC pivots hard towards content centered around spaceships.
>>725465983They didn't even start until after starfield, the teaser was just to up their price before the buyout.
Todd Howard is the George RR Martin of Videogamesand a bit of Vince Gilligan
>>725469316There's still hope for TES6 but if it's a catastrophe, it's over for Todd. 76 and Starfield were genuinely terrible and were full of controversy.
I just hope no one looking forward to it or working on it dies before it releases desuit could be a great catharsis whatever it winds up being
>>725469316I don't fault anyone for wanting to try TES6 but I will fault them for having expectations at this point.
>>725468170I would rather suffocate to death than swallow shit.
>>725469676Todd is an old fart who's going to retire anyway, if it fails he'll just be remembered for being the guy who lied a lot and sold Skyrim twenty times
>>725465348Forget this game ever coming out
>>725468814>Starfield was quietly killed internally, there's no fanbase remaining.Why do people say this when they literally teased the upcoming DLC for Starfield and it's literally the best selling game this generation.
>>725469987Now imagine if Emil replace Todd, you can say goodbye to what remains of the soul from these games.
>>725466468>Oblivion is better than Skyrim because the townslol
>>725468935>Bethesda also doesn't have a storefrontIt did have one though. They just didn't force it upon people (with FO76, and FO:S (at least initially) being the exception) like companies like Ubisoft did.
I was 17 when skyrim first came out. I can't believe it's taking this long for a new ES
>>725470234even if they had, it would never compare to Steam or GOG. not even in the same ballpark.
>>725470096>best sellingIt only matters for corpos. The playerbase is needed to keep a game relevant regardless of 6 gorillon sales after a few months. I can't believe people still argue this shit after how many decades now?
>>725468982Starfield is proof that making games with passion matters a lot because that's an insane playerbase for a single player game that's 2 years old.
>>725470096>DLCI mean if they can asset flip and get some more money off idiots why not>Best selling game this generationI see all sorts of numbers thrown around with how much Bethesda made but the fact is nobody is playing it. Bethesda ruined their credibility attaching their name to this terrible product. There's no mod community, no hype, no nothing around Starfield. Anyone who bought it was apparently sufficiently disappointed and never played it again
>>725470394sales don't matter only how much money corpos stuff in your company and if it fails you just promise them your next project will totally surely be jackpot
>>725470202They are. Oblivion towns feel lived in way more than Skyrim'sBeing able to actually have dialogue with every NPC also helps a lot
>>725470394Starfield has an active playerbase and it's getting more DLC for the next 5 years. It's gonna sell a lot more when they release the eventual PS5/Switch 2 ports.
>>725470234I guess I meant like GOG, Epic and Steam but yes this is technically a storefront.
If ES6 will have AI and proc gen up the ass might as well get hyped for this insteadCan't be worse and it'll probably come out sooner
>>725470469Scifi is inherently less popular than fantasy, even if you look at novel genre sales. Starfield is doing fine for scifi fans but it's clear after Oblivion remastered selling so crazy well this year that people are hungry for more fantasy games.
>>725470540Learn what per capita is. Your own game you are shilling saar also has the lowest rated review out of all of those games. One of which is Final Fantasy 16 holy FUCK
Isn't TES supposed to be their flagship franchise? It feels like their doing everything they can NOT to work on the series.
>>725470705cry harder your shit eating jeet, shouldnt you be embarrassed over that poop throwing video
>>725470764it's really strange considering skyrim is one of the best selling vidyas of all time. I don't know why they're so allergic to making a sequel
>>725470705and it also the most reviews. starfield winning anyway you look at it
I just don't get what's taking so long. I'm not trying to dunning Krugerly criticize something I cannot do professionally, but the whole situation really makes no sense. Companies used to pump these games out in a few years. Bethesda is bigger than ever, infinite budgets, thousands of employees. Doesn't that mean it should get done faster? The incentive structures only point one way. ES6 would print infinite money. Nothing make any sense. 20 years is an irrational amount of time to wait for a fucking video game. Does ES6 even exist? Is Bethesda just a money laundering front? I must assume the project is moving so slowly(how!) that the company has scrapped it entirely and restarted production due to the changing culture/market and now they're stuck in an infinite indecision feedback loop and ES6 is never coming out. It's the only thing that makes sense logically.
>>725470764Todd wanted to have Fallout and then he wanted to make his shitty passion projectIf any version of ES6 was ever in production after Skyrim we'll probably never see any leak
>>725470506You haven't played either games have you?
>>725470540All these games are a one and done deal and 7k was last year. Lesser now.Dragons Dogma 2 had less hype than a BGS game and hit 350k to dwindle into nothingness like Starfield.A DLC for Hello Kitty would sell more than anything for Starfield, that's how bad the fanbase was burned.
>>725470764Bethesda's problem is that they're about 200 people at their core and they really really believe that they can handle Elder Scrolls, Fallout and Starfield on rotation by themselves and they're too proud of their work to hand it off to others. At the end of the day they havent done the proper work into splitting themselves into multiple dev teams that work on multiple games at once. So their dev cycle involves working on one game at a time so we can clearly see that they've been working on Fallout 76 until 2019, then moved to Starfield which released in 2023 and now they're busy working on Elder Scrolls VI. We're a few years away from seeing their next game and at least 7-8 years away from seeing Fallout 5.
>>725471074I played the entire (mainline) series
>>725465348I don't care about elder scrolls 6. I'm way more excited about fan projects like Tamriel Rebuilt and Project Tamriel. Hell, I'm more excited about Skyblivion than shitass TES6.
>>725470919What I don't understand is how there has been no leak whatsoever of any versionSurely some devs are getting frustrated too
>>725470919>Bethesda is bigger than ever, infinite budgets, thousands of employees.Bethesda is literally indie tier sized compared to other AAA developers. They're at around 300 people now and half of them is working on elder scrolls and the other half is on starfield DLC and Fallout 76.
>>725466468Skyrim is still a better game than 90% of the games that come out today. 2007-2011 was peak gaming and Skyrim is the clear end before big corpo CEO's finally twitched.
>>725471225there's no leak because bethesda hasn't worked jack shit on TES6
>>725471264fallout 76 is still a thing?
>>725470919What they want you to think:>TES6 will be so much more advanced in scale, graphics and mechanics that it had to take extra time! It will be their magnum opus!What's actually happening:>PR disaster after PR disaster, announce TES6 in a panic to appease the masses>not even 5% of the way through pre-production>Starfield is relegated as the ugly red-headed stepchild to test and spitball ideas and mechanics>it sucks, but gets finished, with the B-team stuck on Fallout 76 corpse maintenance>preproduction has started and finished in this time, and the game has been in full production since 2023>given their typical 4-5 year dev cycle, TES6 will release in 2028 if not a little later due to having to overhaul the engine AGAIN>it will be just okay
>>725471074He's right. TES4 radiant AI is better and the schedules are more varied compared to TES5. Fallout 4 barely have any and it was completely removed in Starfield.Going from TES3 static NPCs to TES4 was a drastic change.
>>725465348They can delay it all they want, it's going to be ass anyways. All of the actual talent has left Bethesda long ago.
>>725470764Well Skyrim had incredible staying power as they kept porting it to new systems and the money kept pouring in. A similar situation to GTA5. So the decision was made to just keep milking that cow and work on other stuff that wouldn't effect Skyrim sales.
>>725471330It makes enough money that they keep announcing a new DLC every year at the Xbox game show. Also Elder scrolls online is the most profitable MMO of all time too. With Oblivion remastered being in the top 10 best selling games of the year and Fallout 3 remastered coming out next year, Bethesda really has no worries and can spend their sweet time working on their game.
You niggers bitch and whine and moan about how awful each new Todd game is, constantly whinge about how awful and casualized Skyrim is for literal years on end and how the series has gone to complete and utter shit and then turn around and "YESSIR MASSAH, GIBS ME MORE O' DAT PWEEBSE! DIS TIEUD OL' BODY NEEBS ME MORE-A THATS MASSAH, PWEEBSE DON' HIT DAH TIEUD OL' GAYMAH MASSAH, LAWDY WE'S JUST LOOKIN' FOR A QUESTIN' IN TAM-REEL AGAIN MASSAH!"Why are you like this?
>>725471410I remember reading about how the reason why they arent worried about rushing Elder Scrolls is because ESO is so crazy popular and profitable.
>>725471487>He's never been in an abusive relationship before
>>725465869>elder scrolls 6 game creditsThat's funny. I'm going to make a gif caption for that
>>725468571>they need to feel the fire under their ass to make something that's not slop.I feel like there's a profound lesson there. Unconditional safety nets are like a petri dish for humanity's worst traits.
>>725471264That's still a lot of people to do nothing for 15 years man. It's like they hate money. Eventually the threshold will pass and the opportunity will be gone. Also Microsoft can't help them? Seems like they have plenty of avenues to aquire labor, especially when developing a product that will make infinite money.
>>725467847How do you know Todd's dream game wasn't a game that sucked dick?
>Elder scrolls 6 still runs on gamebryoCalling it now and don't give me that "it's totally a new engine" when 1 minute of gameplay proves otherwise like with skyrim
Literally the only reason this was announced was so they could get a buyer for Zenimax and to shut everyone up about Fallout 76
>>725471734Until Todd Howard leaves bethesda, they're going to only keep working on one game at a time. Fallout 5 in 2033 when the tv show is already over.
>>725471367> Two random unrelated NPCs walk to each other> They switch voice actors> Have you heard of the high elves???This is the shit Oblivitards think is good?Lmao. What's sad is you wouldn't even defend the garbage TES4 is if it hadn't been remastered.
>No Jeremy Soule>Confirmed SoulelessIt's an easy skip for me
>>725471487I'll never forget the 3 week period /v/ unironically praised Skyrim at launch but the moment "le arrow" caught on outside the 4chan bubble, people turned on it. Bethesda and Game Freak have a lot in common, both make really bad games that are loved but the majority of people but shat on but a loud minority. Bethesda is at the point they can shit on a plate and people will love it.>Muh overwhelming negative steam pagelol, lmao.
>>725471796Name ONE newer modern engine that does object manipulation and gravity better.
>>725471846>What's sad is you wouldn't even defend the garbage TES4 is if it hadn't been remastered.NTA but I would because the remaster is absolute dog shit :)
>>725471410There's a type of gamer that sees Skyrim in the store for $15 on current console stotr and they gotta have it. They might just do a couple quests in Whiterun and then drop the game but they must have Skyrim on every new console they get.
>>725472000Name one modern RPG on par with Skyrim.
>>725471846Last time i played TES4 is in 2008. Voice acting shenanigans =/= how advanced radiant AI was compared to future titlesAlso STALKER A-life was inspired by TES4 radiant AI.
>>725471876Bethesda is the western gamefreak is such an apt description because their games sell insanely well while the dev team are all 50 year old out of touch gen Xers who no longer care to use the latest technology in making their games because they're too old to learn anything new.
>>725471938A V8 engine
>>725471938>Newer engineSee there is your problem you assume that just because its newer its better when in reality there are a lot of games that cane before that figured out Gravity and Object manipulation great>GTA4>Portal>Half Life 2>Kerbel Space ProgramThe newest version of something doesn't automatically make it better.
>>725472107I can't.
PS2 was the pinnacle of technologyyou regularly got high quality games you didn't have to wait decades for. modern devs lost their sense of creative focus in pursuit of ambition
>>725465475>I will be over 30 years old before Skyrim 2 releasesGrim
>>725472224>GTA mentioned Opinion discarded.
>>725472280Not really when Private Equity and Wall Street got its hands on gaming that was the problem. Nobody wants games made by committee
>>725472280>Compressed audio machine was the pinnacle of technology You faggots cannot be serious about this shit.
>>725471938Not him but the way cells work is why it's better. Most other engines can't keep props in the memory and items are gone into the void. Things spawn in an adjacent cell and still roam around the world when you're not in that cell anymore.
>>725472380I'm already over 30. I might be closer to 40 than 30 by the time it finally releases
It was going to be in Hammerfell when US Afro-fetishism was at an all time high, like how they decided Yusuke would be the MC of Assassins Creed, but feelings have simmered and now even shifted in the other direction and while many YouTubers and stuff still worship the Redguards it will probably be shuffled around to be somewhere more marketable, like High Rock.
Just ship the engine with bare bones assets and let modders handle the rest lmao
>>725472860Sinners movie was a massive success.Afro centrism is still popularAC:Shadows sold pretty well despite it triggering you.
>>>Covering parts of Tamriel that have already been visited in previous titles while areas that have never been touched remain mere loreThey fucking would>Hurrr Scrawls onlineDoesn't exist. Not canon.
>>725472860They're gonna change african wanking to arab wanking to earn a couple extra bazillion dollars from saudi princes
>>725472860Regardless, high rock is a superior setting vs a fucking desert and some sea sailing. High Rock is more diverse like Cyrodiil. Hammerfell is Skyrim with sand.
>>725467048>divinity shit with a TES skinno.
It's better than ship of theuseus'd other developers like Blizzard where all the people that worked on the original greats are all gone and it's not even the same company anymore except in name.
>>725472860Good thing Hammerfell isn't supposed to be Africa
How do you become a ES Lore Master? Outside of the games are there books and shit to read up on?
You shouldn't be waiting for a release date.Yes, ES6 is real; it is in active production. This is public information, it transitioned from pre-production like two years ago. But the wait is not because of the scale of the game, or internal issues, or because of Starfield, or whatever. It's very, very simply.>Bethesda finally reaches "uh oh" territory financially>Hey guys...Elder Scrolls 6!Similarly to the Oblivion Remaster, its a project they've had ready for ages which gets the go ahead to start preparing for an actual release date once things get dicey. Oblivion Remastered came and went like a fart in the wind-but also massively improved Bethesda's situation, and reputation (for most people-remember, if you meet them with mistrust and cynicism immediately you are in the correct but firm minority).It won't come anytime soon. They make money off most of their existing "new" games. They are saving it for a rainy day. It's as simple as that.And you'll be playing it on day 1. You know it. I know it. Most importantly, Bethesda knows it.
>>725467048I'm never playing another turn-based party real-time with pause diceroll game ever again and you fucking SCUM will never convince me to do otherwise.
>>725465348Yes Todd, that's great. When is Terran Armada?>>725470096>Why do people say this when they literally teased the upcoming DLC for Starfield/v/ doesn't follow Starfield or really any game that doesn't have it's information plastered everywhere here or on popular YouTube gaming influencer streams and channels.
>>725465348This man's "dream game" was easily the worst thing he's ever made. Just think about that shit for a second. His PET PROJECT was the WORST THING he's ever made. This man fucking boggles the mind.
>>725473437It's all in the games. You just need to be very autistic. Surface level lore is more than enough.
>>725473437Wikia fan pages and articles, like every other lore-heavy thing in existence.
>>725467182can't forgive todd for this. so much time wasted on starfield
It's not coming out lol. Todd will retire soon and then they'll cancel it
>>725465348Does that mean there’s a chance we’ll see the epic fanfic Skyrim the Journey of a hero finished before TES VI comes out? I hope so! Come on Jack Russel you still have time to finish your masterpiece!
>>725473859They needed to be humbled and FO76 back to back with Starfield did a good job. You really wish they just shat out a half-assed Skyrim 2 in the interim? At least now there's some sliver of a chance more that it could be worthwhile. Like a guy said earlier, they only do well when they're in the hot seat and those last two games were bred from their indulgence.
>>725465348Cool story toddWhat does Microsoft have to say about that?
People complain about Bethesda a lot, but they're still the only one who makes their style of game. Even FO4 and Starfield were enjoyable enough for 80-100 hours each. Skyrim was insanely popular and other studios had every reason to try to copy it, they had more than a decade to try and they never pulled it off. KCD got close but that's it.
testgeek
>>725465348It's a dead franchise. There has been no release in the series since an MMO over a decade ago. That is a dead series. By definition TES is a defunct IP
>>725465348Use basic logic and reason.Starfield came out in 2023 after a 5 year production.TES6 started full production after Starfield and will also likely take at least 5 years to develop.Therefore, TES6 will likely release in late 2028.
>>725465754We'll get a Dark Souls remake before ES6
>>725474232GTA must also be a dead franchise according to you.
Vague ass statement. He could be bullshitting, it could mean it's 1 year until release, it could mean it's 12 years away from release.
>>725474489It is
Where do they even get their money from? The mmos?
>>725465348There is 0 chance of The Elder Scrolls VI being good because it takes place in Hammerfell and Hammerfell is full of Redguards and Redguards are niggers.
>>725467957He was just immersing himself into Indian culture you racist piece of shit
>>725474612>Fallout 76 is still releasing new content>ESO made 2 billion over the years it's been released>Skyrim is obviously still selling when ported to new systems>Oblivion remastered is the best selling game of the year>Starfield is their best selling game yet but critical reception has caused people to hate on it but they're still working on DLC to fix things and reverse the reputationWe know Fallout 3 remake is coming out next year when it was leaked at the same time as oblivion remake and they'll start porting more games to the switch 2. So yeah, they make a lot of money.
>>725472951Show me Shadows's sales numbers anon.
>>725465348Bethesda can't top Skyrim, so TESVI is vaporware
>>725465348Todd lied people died
>>725465869Why the fuck would anyone willingly travel to this 10th circle of hell? I guess bringing awareness to the fact that jeets are truly the enemy of humanity is a good thing but even still I would never consider it. You could pay me no amount of money to ever set one foot into indian territory.
>>725474816FO3 is gonna be a litmus test for me of modern day Bethesda. There were a lot of sexy female armors in FO3. Several of the raider armors were barely covered up. If they are all "updated for modern audiences", I'm out. Not even going bother with TESVI: Niggerfell since I'm already not hyped to play in some moorish shithole.
>>725471094>they're too proud of their work to hand it off to others.MS isn't too proud, they're eventually going to force the issue. MS is a multi-platform publisher now, they have to have a constant stream of content to make money. All it's going to take is a hard ass businessman to come in after Phil leaves/gets fired and you'll see IPs get handed out to other studios like candy.
>>725475535Fallout 3 is being worked on by Virtuous who's chinese and Oblivion remake didnt ruin the sexy female armor. I'm sure it'll be fine.
>>725475524It's good. Just 10 years ago, Indians were looked at as some sort of holy spiritual people. Let the public know about the jeet menace. That guy is the hero we needed, but not the one we deserve.
>>725475629Them forcing the issue is pushing Bethesda to hand their old games to other game developers in china to remake.
>>725475774For now.
>>725465348They tried to AI generate TES6 just like they AI generated Shitfield, thanks todd for confirming you had to reset development after no one liked Shitfield>they will still use the same dogshit engine for tes6 in 5+ years, retards never learn
>>725465348Who even waits for this shit? Bethesda hasnt made a good game in more than 20 years
>>725475645We will see. I'm sure Bethesda still gets final say on the product.
>>725475889>dogshit enginecan't wait for them to update to modern standards and move to UE5
>>725465348Didn't they say they're prioritizing the next fallout game since the show did so well?
>>725465348Unironically 2-3 years atleast.
There are still people on this planet who haven't bought at least six editions of Skyrim, Todd still has a job to do
>>725471796Honestly, I'd rather have that than UE5.
>>725466439Not even. All they have to do is make a game exactly like skyrim mechanically using the same engine and graphics as skyrim. They could have it out in 8 months. But no, enough is not enough. We must spend a decade reinventing the wheel for EVERY iteration so they can tack on meaningless technical spectacle that will be dated on release day. It's as if every painting required inventing new pigments. Real clown world shit. I can't believe we let these mouth breathers control our entertainment, much less our aspirational myths and heroes.
>>725465348Microsoft really needs to gut their IPs and license them out to other devs so some good games can be made
>source: GQWhat?
How many of you even care about vanilla TES games? I know a bunch of you retards don't mod or have only installed less than a hundred mods.I imagine people who play heavily modded lists with 100s to 1000s of mods will not care at all about new Bethesda games until they get a bunch of mods. Similar to people who only play Paradox games with total conversion mods. There's a large diaconnect between people who play these games around launch and mainly vanilla and people who play these games years later with modlists/modpacks.
>>725471225>What I don't understand is how there has been no leak whatsoever of any versionbecause they havent even started working on it
>>725469564Anon. Starfield just fucking sucked
>>725465348>But they showed the trailer off! that means that they must have had a huge team working on it this whole time!They only showed that trailer as damage control, self aware that some people weren't going to like the multiplayer focus of fallout 76 and the rumors that's Bethesda was going to abandon TES to the MMO mines.That's shit probably only started getting really development this year as much of the team is still working on Starfield DLC. Tes6 won't be until MAYBE 2030.
I'm honestly fine with it taking a long time because it's going to run like shit on modern hardware if Starfield is anything to go by. Hopefully a RTX 7700 will be able to run it fine when it finally comes out.
>>725465348they should update the engine first. it will take time but they better do it or else.
>>725465348>there are thousands of people who saw the teaser and will never get to play tes 6 because they diedgrim
>>725469564Starfield was fucking trash and Oblivion has a far better world than anything in it, what the fuck are you smoking nigger. People play these games for giant interconnected maps, not loading screen simulators with literally the same exact points of interest being repeated. Kill yourself.
>>725476879Every modded player has played vanilla skyrim. Really retarded take my friend.
>>725477738Nigga I have colon cancer and my prognosis is about 9 months.GTA 6 being delayed ruined the rest of my life.Yes I am butthurt about it.
>>725477738>gta6 and tes6 killed billions
Roblox
>>725477836Damn bro that'skek sad af.
>>725477827That doesn't mean they enjoy it. Since if they did they would play vanilla or just install content mods, like with Morrowind. But unlike Morrowind modding, pretty much every Skyrim modder is focused on completely overhauling the game to play completely differently. Whether that be to be more of a RPG or more of a action game.
>>725475645the french studio of virtuous worked on the oblivion remakeno doubt they'll be doing the remake for fallout 3 too
>>725471846dumb skyrimnigger, Oblivion absolutely mogs Skyrim in almost every area, ESPECIALLY quests, guilds and towns. Fucking Skyrim bullshit where you become grandmaster in 3 quests, absolute nonsense.
>>725479341Skyrim has>Better graphics, better music, better world design, better combatI get why people like Oblivion but walking around Skyrim is so much more immersive and interesting than Oblivion ever was
>>725470764Why would they care when the consumer cattle masses just kept throwing them millions of dollars for the same fucking mediocre game for literally a DECADE FUCKING STRAIGHTyou only have yourself to blame you vaccinated cattle slave idiotYou and millions of consumers giving a multi billion dollar corporation it’s billions for literally not producing or doing a single thing
the single-player mode is already finished. they need time for the online mode, guys. they don't care about your single-player mode. just look the single-player mode in rdd2 or gta5
>>725479778If they wanted to do a co-op mode then Starfield would've been a better choice for it.>your ship is your lobby>spawn down on the planets to do dungeons on proc gen planets
>>725479552>better gwaphix, better music, better world design, better combatLol, lmao. They literally removed any sense of impact from hitting your enemies in Skyrim, you can't even send people flying with a warhammer strong attack anymore. It feels like you're hitting air in Skyrim. Oblivion's music is amazing and super comfy as are the watercolor graphics. I'll give you more unique dungeons in the world, but too bad they also made all of them a single linear corridor that loops back around to the entrance. So in the end they're boring anyway. Skyrim is fine, the world is nice to run around in, but it's absolutely a downgrade and the very last time I can call a Bethesda game good.
>>725479552SkySHIT is for 0 attention span ADHD brain rotted zoomersIt’s a game easily accessible to women, browns, minorities, Zoomers, downies, retards and all the other genetic trash of manSomething that streamlined, accessible, dumbed down and casualised that literal women play and enjoy it means you are mentally stunted and retardedIt’s not an RPG, it’s a baby’s first action game where you don’t have to think about a single stat or anything if you don’t want to and go through the ENTIRE game with the starting Stormcloak tutorial armour and an iron sword all the way to the end, because it’s a baby’s action game for women and women-brained zoomersIt’s the most dumbed down, casualised piece of shit that was the death of the video game industry in 2011, and no good game like Gothic, Deus Ex or Morrowind will ever be produced again because zoomers proved they are mentally retarded vaccinated cattle who need quick travel, pointing arrows, quest markers, and 1 line quip text
>>725479958Oblivion is the same shit except it's pretending not be a glorified action game. At least Skyrim is decent at what it does.
>>725476657>we will never have the whole tamriel in Skyrim through yearly todd-made dlcs
>>725479958I just play it like it's fantasy gta and it just works
>>725472380That's nothing.
>>725467957He posted a pic where he got like 8+ blood tests
>>725465348By the time this shit comes out, modders will have transformed Skyrim into something far better than Bethesda could ever conjure up.We may already be at that point now.
>>725468982Its amazing that this game made BG3 move its release date to not compete with it
>>725473123Desert areas in games are my favorite. There's a lot of creative potential there.

>>725475645I think point lookout will look great with a glowup ngl, looking forward to the remaster
>>725465348they didn't actually start working on it until shartfield came out that trailer was an impulsive shortsighted reaction to FO76 getting bad press
>>725480964It was announced April 1997 and released June 2011
People who were born the year Shartrim came out are gonna be like 17-19 by the time TES VI comes out lole it will just be seen as an unc game by then
>>725480058wat? The first difference you notice going from TES4 to 5 is that the combat goes from fast-paced and engaging to underwater shit with braindead enemy scripting, numb controls and 0 requirement for skill or knowledge.
>>725482217Nephews love unc games thoughbeit.
>>725467867>Starfield fans

I like how every Skyrim hater ITT conveniently ignores every mod that fixes exactly what they're complaining about. Almost like they never bothered modding and judge it based off vanilla garbage gameplay from 2011.>B-b-b-but mods don't count! B-b-becuase they just don't OK!?LMAO, nobody cares about vanilla in 2025. You are being delibrately disengenious and obtuse by arguing agiants vanilla garbage nobody plays.

>>725465348Bethesda hasn't put out a good enough game to justify these ridiculous development cycles. ES6 is gonna be just as disappointing as everything else they've shat out.

>>725481474Ill buy it regardless. Nobody else, especially modern Obsidian, can do goofy fun shit and minor inconveniences in a fantasy/wasteland setting like Bethesda

>>725470316Ill be nearing 40 or into my 40s when ES6 comes out
>>725476657This, Elder Scrolls VI should have come out back in 2017 or 2018, Fallout 5 in 2023 due to covid delays and we should be waiting right now for Elder Scrolls VII next year. Nobody wanted Starfield, nobody wanted Fallout 76, nobody wants or expects the next Elder Scrolls to be the greatest game ever. Bethesda are a bunch of genuine idiots.
