What's taking him so long
>>728542438>so longSO LONG, GAY HOWARD
too busy raking in ESO money
>>728542438Too busy fapping to modded skyrim
>>728542438starfield just released 2 years ago but everyone forgot about it already, so it just feels like they have not released a game in 10 years.
>>728542438>todd magnum opus
>>728542438He's making sure you can climb all the mountains, since you all complained about it last time
>>728542438He's rebuilding the entire game to use EU5 for the graphics, Oblivion was the paid beta.
>>728542438Hasn't started working on it yetWill probably shit out some new fallout before
>>728542438they didnt start yet the plan was to sell bethesda after fallout 76
>>728542438He doesn't know how to turn his computer on
>>728546127wrong, he has someone turning his work computer on every morning and turning it off every night because todd is just that busy!
>>728542438If he doesn't show Elder Scrolls VI: Hammerfell next year I am gonna kiss him on the lips.):<
>>728546665The good life
lotta mountains for you to climb to make, dude
>>728542438>What's taking him so longCompetency crisis. Zoomer employees.You saw Starfield right?
he's perfecting the most lifeless proc gen world you'll ever see, along with infinite proc gen fetch quests. it takes time, anons
Let's be honest about the fact that Skyrim isn't really a relevant force in open world games and RPGs. Kingdom Come, Witcher, Cyberpunk and BG3 are far more culturally relevant to the average gamer than Skyrim, and it's extremely dated by comparison. Fallout 4 is pretty much the same. Starfield has proven that they're 15 years behind the expectations of the average gamer for the genre. Emil Pagliarulo's hand waving of the criticism proves that the studio really thinks they are still in line with the rest of the industry. If ES6 is just Skyrim 2, it will kill Bethesda.
>>728547056INSIDER INFOTES6 was deep in production but the game tester hated the game, especially the story/lore. Todd fired Emil Pagliarulo and is now remaking the whole lore from the start, they basically had to re-do the whole game.. Todd is is working hard and he read every lore book about TES to give the most unique and lore-based experience ever...
>>728545926It wouldn't surprise me if TES6 uses dual engine. UE5 isn't the best looking but for overall gfx, it's better than CE. CE will do everything else except gfx.
>>72854705660 million sales says otherwise retard. It's like saying Deus Ex is more known than fucking Doom or something.You're a delusional European.
>>728547902This is like saying the first Metal Gear Solid on PS1 is still relevant today, and if Konami made a new game exactly like it, as if there weren't 25 years of innovation since then, it would sell well because rereleases of it sell well.
>>728542438english to pajeet translations
>>728545926>EU5 for graphicsBased Todd
The game is ready, but Todd is personally assigning pronouns to every NPC. Might take a while.
>>728547056Didn't the entire internet delude themselves into believing a random statue in the Mojave was a teaser for TES6 because a crocodile had the faintest similarity to a Daedroth?
Long uhuhuhuhuhuhuh
>>728547056Where you're right is that Witcher and BG3 did tremendous amounts of damage to the genre that will haunt us for decades. TES used to be a breath of freah air among the narrative driven adult experiences, but TES is now dead.
If he keeps this shit waiting for much longers it's going to face the same problem half life 3 would face.No one would care if the game was actually released
>>728543758>they have not released a game in 10 years.they used to put out a major release every two years. the only thing they have done in the past decade is FO76 and starfield. This is them being lazy faggots.
>>728547739>UE5 isn't the best looking but for overall gfxI hate how UE5 looks, but you're correct from a normalfag's perspective. Most of them can't see graphical artifacts the same way 30fps and 60fps look the same to them.
Trying to come up with a chosen one prophecy after already using>remember the previous games?last time
>>728550051I'm pretty sure everyone can see indoor fog and unnatural skin color, they just cannot quite put these issues in words.
>>728542438let him cook
>>728542438>What's taking him so longModsMods are what's taking so long. Microsoft didn't buy Bethesda for billions of dollars so that you could buy TES6 on a deep discount and then play it for 15 years because of free mods. Satya HATES that idea. He demands that the game be completely locked down. Creation Club is a new XB Game Pass feature. You MUST have it in order to play TES6 with mods, or DLC, or the online features. The base game can be purchased but it's barebones and even lacks dialog for everywhere outside of the main quest locations. This takes a lot of work engine side, and talent at Bethesda being what it is, will take a while. Microsoft will sooner buy Nexus than allow free modding on the next TES.
personally impregnating every npc (even the twinks) to make sure modern processing power can handle mods
>>728550404Nah, I made this image as a meme and got people unironically saying the bottom looks better.
>>728549552you're forgetting about all the skyrim releases and editions
TES VI will have a new engine that will be the foundation for the next decade or two of TES games. Everything will really just work this time. We'll climb all those mountains. Everything will be radiant. It's happening for real this time.
>>728542438>spend 8 years developing Shitfield>rush TES6 in just 4 yearsit better not fucking come out anytime in this decade
>>728550830...and it will somehow be worse than Oblivion anyway
>>728542438They know they're fucked. For all his faults, Todd seems to actually care about the wellbeing of Bethesda's employees. The longer they can delay ES6 the longer he can provide the workers with MS money. Todd has stated that Morrowind was his favorite game to work on (as well as being the worst crunch he's had to work with). In a perfect world, their impending doom would make Todd go "fuck it" and make the game he actually wants to instead of what he thinks the market wants, but this is not a perfect world and he will probably double down on normal-faggotry and dumb down the mechanics even further. Maybe with a couple more flops under their belt Bethesda will finally produce their Final Fantasy or Demon's Souls.
>>728550743My anecdotal observations go the other way though. When Hogwarts Legacy released, skin colors and indoor fog were some of the first issues discussed on /vg.
>>728550830>We'll climb all those mountainsOn xbox, I could climb anything I wanted to in Morrowind if I jumped enough. I think the xbox version's fps was fucked or something and allowed that?
>>728550743What's with the fog trend nowadays?Are they doing this on purpose?
>>728550743>>728551410Chinese gamers don't think the world is realistic without smog smeared across everything.
>>728551410My guess, UE adds fog by default to hide artifacts with distant objects.
>>728551410To hide terrible LOD. They just replaced distance depth of field with fog.
>>728551410Fog adds depth of field and that foreground/background contrast is easier to look at because it gives a focal point to rest one's eyes at. Also it hides rougher LOD assets.
can't reach the keyboard at the new standing desks lol short ahh unc
Bethesda is such a shit company and their games are shit. It's amazing how they fell ass backwards into success. Probably the luckiest group of hacks to exist in gaming.
>>728551409you didnt play Morrowind on fucking x-box
>>728542438After Starshit and fallout 76 I have 0 faith in anything good ever coming out from that dogshit company. They probably funneled all the money and workforce into Starshit considering how hard they were shilling for it and only recently started to work on the next Elder Scrolls as Starshit flopped and nobody gives a single fuck about it.
>>728551410What's weird is the defense force that tells you to go outside as they try gaslight you into thinking the real world is that foggy.Maybe they're Indian so it does look like that to them.
>>728552465I did, and I used instant regen cheats as well as abusing the soul trap permanent stat modifying glitch on my first playthrough.
>>728542438Godd Howard is just going to release this game without warning next year and you’ll all be laughing on the other side of your faces! I feel Valve plan to do the same with Half Life 3 it’s the new way of doing game releases and Chadthesda already showed it works with Oblivion remake!
