>>731068379you jest, but that's what I want. I want a sailing pirate adventure game with old school Tomb Raider dungeon crawls. Ditch the RPG stuff and give the people what they need; immersive simulation. Also have the bad guys win, Empire Strikes Back style.
>>731068291>todd watching silently in horror as dei becomes immensely hated after already putting 15 years of work into making a redguard themed expansion
>>731068291>Creation Club content at launchThat's the most believable part of the whole thing.
> release date: November 1st, 2055
>>731068291But now the real question, will the modding community save it?
>>731069523It'll have less of a modding presence than Fallout 4 and Skyrim.
>>731068291Are there really people who still care what Bethesda does anymore? Fallout 4 was a train wreck and by far the worst game in Bethesda history. Fallout 76 was such a mess that it easily surpassed Fallout 4 as the worst Bethesda product in their history. Starfield is a disaster in all direction and has become the gold standard in the industry for what is considered a soulless video game. There is no more Bethesda. Bethesda is now just a loose collection of Indian and Chinese development studios.
>>731068291>>you can also join Bretonic knightly orders like the Knights of the DragonSo? No one does worse or more childishly simplistic combat than Bethesda Game Studios. Combat in their games is literally not any more complex than combat in Minecraft.
>>731069943They tried to give you combat with directional controls and stamina management and everyone hated it.
>>731068291>no sword-singingYou really want me to believe that Todd won't add dragon shouts into a game? You'll probably be the swordborn and sword singing will be identical to dragon shouts except that you'll need to be holding a sword. Curved swords do 10% more sword singing damage.
>>731068291TND speedrun any%
>>731068291>Takes place in Hammerfell and a bit of High Rock>Focus is on shipsIf this were true it would make far more sense to take place in the Illiac Bay instead, Hammerfell consists of mostly wastelands devoid of content and water.
>>731069943No first person RPG has ever had good combat.
>>731070417>what is dark messiah
>>731070351There's plenty of water as is.
>>731070478Not an RPG, for one.
>>731069686>What is outsourcingAre there any AAA games that don't outsource these days?
>>731070417it's kinda wild since chivalry solved first/third person melee combat years ago, just tie it to some stats and you'd be good to go
>>731071365>Chiv>The game where retards are spinning around and crouching mid-swing to abuse hitboxes/collision AHAHAHAHAHA
>>731071571see the benefit of singleplayer games is that you don't have to worry about that
>>731071571>Saar clicking m1 and occasionally m2 is good combat Saar>saar stealth archer does the needful saar Begone, jeet.
>argonian lady calls me cute>she'll polish my spear anytimedo you think she likes me?
>>731070514But all that inland area makes it less optimal for ship exploring. Think about playing this. If the map looked like that you wouldn't really need to use your ship much.
>>731071675>>731071751Nobody wants Chiv's shit combat. Keep crying.
>>731068379hopefully it kills bethesda for real this time
>>731070417
>>731068291Will Elder Scrolls VI even come out this year?
>>731068291Isn't hammerfell a desert? It's gonna suck ass
>>731073735It's unlikely that it will come out this decade.
>>731073809I like deserts. Ever since Lut Gholein and Tanaris.
>>731068291>>Starfield's spaceship building has been adapted into a regular ship building system with which you can sail the Bay and get into pirate battlesbethesda is far too lazy for thisspace is easy because the only physics you have to worry about it whether the ship is moving or not and in which direction, there's way more to worry about when simulating believable naval combat and I just don't think bethesda has it in them
>>731068291Yeah none of this is finalized (or real)
>>731069943Skyrim is good once you fix the input, camera, animations, hitboxes and visuals with mods lol. Simple, but good. Like Dark Souls with only shields.
>>731068291>>Starfield's spaceship building has been adapted into a regular ship building system with which you can sail the Bay and get into pirate battleshow awful. ship building in starfield sucked and it was an unskippable slog and it will be just as bad if not worse in tes6
>>731073809Only the southern half.
>>731068832>Also have the bad guys win, Empire Strikes Back style.You'll never be lead designer, Kuhlmann
>>731068291But can we marry Redguard women, and can we adopt Breton children to raise, and can we build a home without a hearthfire DLC?
>>731068291They will reduce the skills down to warrior, mage and thief only.Warrior lets you wear heavy armor and increases damage with swords. Axes, maces, hammers, daggers and light armor will be deleted.Mage increases mana, healing and fireball damage. Other spells like levitation, bound items, paralyze, feather, summons etc will be deleted.Thief will increase your stealth and bow and arrow damage. If you have high thief, you will be invisible to other characters even if you crouch directly in foront of them. Speechcraft, pickpocket and lockpickingwill be deleted.Alchemy and enchaniting will be deleted.
>>731074682A logical amount of dooming, like quests and dungeons will be shit is good but you're dooming too much my friend
>>731074682People say this as if Saarfield didn't have more RPG elements than Fallout 4, as shit as they were.
>>731068832imagine a ship building sim like starfield...but sea ships!
>>731071924This is fake and gay but if it was real then the answer would be that you should have one inland river that you can navigate. The Alik'r could be extremely hostile not just to traverse but to even get close to, reinforcing that traveling by ship is much easier than doing so by land but if you go by land straight through the desert you can manage to reach secret places or do so faster.
>>731074682
>>731068291i'm against white genocide (or any) but I would respect TVDD for releasing a game full of niggas happening in niggaland during the worst time wokistan ever hadwe had actually plenty of white shit with the viking craze wotlk skyrim gow2018, the fakkin LOTR Oblivion, if they can have non blue+fog+blur+washedout colours war visuals with nice art direction (seems unlikely since skyrim and oblivion remaster) i would actually love nigger scrolls. needless to say a thief+hi speed build will be mandatory. I just hope they actually add features instead of removing. normies are used to RPG now, baldurs gate 3 did well. I fear they remove all features and leave little build libertty and mechanics with their removing nerd sheet shit
>>731068291My Elderscrolls 6 Pirate crew I will hire for my ship:Todd howardThe Adoring FanBig titty HMOFAbait Khajiit grilSome tranny with a festering axe wound (even though trannies didn't exist in the middle ages)The one pathetic carricature of a white man they included in the game just to dunk on white peopleFat black lesbian magic girlboss mary sue who needs no manTogether, we will conquer the seven seas!
TES redguards aren't niggers they are swashbuckling nafri pirates descended from samurais.skyrimbabies only know them from that one quest and not from redguard
>>731075335They will be full on niggerinos in Elder Scrolls 6.Full on dindu magic. Shouting in theaters.
>>731075335>skyrimbabies only know them from that one quest and not from redguardBuddy, *nobody* knows them from Redguard. The game bombed. Not even Morrowind fags played Redguard they just read about it online.
>>731075437as it should beand every redguard BETTER be voiced by actual black men from america <with an ebonics accents. THIS is what we want. IN EVERY LANGUAGE.THE NIGGER SCROLLS INCOMING. YOU KNOW YOU WANT IT.
>>731069686was f4 that bad? never played it
>>731075759No, but it wasn't very good either. I mean it's fun to just dick around in the world, but the writing is mostly terrible.
>>731075759It's not per se bad, it's just the first Bethesda game between TES and Fallout where the cracks have appeared and they're quite visible.
>>731075335>>731075437It's the opposite, Redguards were always unambiguously black and if you have the mistaken belief that they might be Arabs or some shit then you're most likely a Skyrimtard because that's how Skyrim portrayed them.
>>731068291I don't think they've even started work on this yet
>>731076310From what we heard it's in the Anthem stage of preproduction, where no one has a vision and no one makes any clear decision, so nothing gets done.
>>731075165Why guns? What?
>>731070614Hence why it's amazing. RPGs make everything shit.
>>731076496That’s the logical end of Elder Scrolls dumbing down the series being turned into COD which Skyrim was already copying from with regenerating health, no attributes, no classes or birth signs but standing stones and no spell creation. Though I think the end result would be in a modern setting fighting Russians not demons while you control and preset character called Tagert in a ‘game’ that’s almost all cut scenes and cinematic warfare.
>>731070614It's no less an RPG than Skyrimjob is
>>731077116Factually untrue.
>>731068291>Creation Club content at launchOf fucking course
>>731069032They probably had meetings about that if i were to wager a guess. Imagine if he goes reverse DEI and just puts a bunch of nords in hammerfell.
Im done with bethesda elder scrolls/fallout games. Loading screen after loading screen, decades old engine iteration, same old shit
>>731068291All I want is to marry Khajiit women
>>731070417Dark messiah, bannerlord, chivalry all solved that problem
>>731072092So which first game game has good melee combat
>>731077812game game
Too lateThey should have released this a few years ago when peak woke is a thingWakanda 2.0 ain't going to sell, they're going to pair Hammerfell with High Rock
>>731078002They could base the entire game on the Thousand and One Nights of Arabia which has always been popular.
>>731068291May God’s eternal blessing shine upon the proud Black descendants of the mighty Yokudan people, the Redguards, heirs to an unbroken legacy of strength and honor!
>>731078279Reggin alert
>>731076493It left preproduction three years agohttps://www.pcgamer.com/the-elder-scrolls-6-is-out-of-pre-production-but-pete-hines-says-it-will-be-years-before-we-start-hearing-about-it/
>>731069943that toon reminds me of someone
>>731068291>>armor presentation goes back to separating cuirass from greaves like Oblivionthis is how I know it's fake>>Skyrim's civil war is ignored, with rumors stating the Empire sent reinforcements up north>>no sword-singing>>Creation Club content at launchnevermind this sounds legit
>>731069032I think this is why it's taking so long>development starts and they go all in on dei>game is a kangz simulator>now people are exhausted of blacks>now they're trying to take the kangz out of their kangz gameIts possible at least.
>>731078616it doesn't matter. Emil and todd will find a way to make you *something* born in the game>desertborn>seaborn>elfborn>hoondingbornIf they rejected sword singing it was likely just because they couldn't add the born suffix to it.
>>731080401Maybe they should give your character something akin to the wishsongs from Shannara if not outright stealing the concept outright. So instead of using shouting as a weapon to cast special magic you sing.
>>731075759FO4 is unfairly maligned by shizos. It literally won the most prestigious GOTY award in its release year.
>>731080352kill yourself retard
>>731078616Well, F4 did have more armor slots than Skyrim which had more armor slots than F3. It's just that they went back to F3-tier with Starfield.
>>731080704>rapbornDon't give emil any ideas, they're probably making the redguards too much of a caricature as it is. Especially when they're originally more arab/samurai inspired.
>>731074831>Starfield had more RPG elements than Fallout 4Critics won't own up to this because then they'd have to concede that it's possibly for a game to be worse despite better RPG elements and they've constructed their whole identity around the opposite.
>>731070089well yeah because they did it wrong
>>731069686>Dilipsun Anal
>>731075335>>731075437>>731075697Baffling secondary postDid you EVER play any fucking Elder Scrolls game besides Skyrim? Redguards were literally all voiced by african-americans and had names likes "Trayvond" and "Wallace" in Redguard, Morrowind and Oblivion lmao
>>731080978see >>731081474
>>731080352i don't expect anything else from modern bethesda
> By my honour I pledge to rid Tamriel of wypeepo.
Okay which of you is this.
>>731081951Not me
>>731080969There's also the face slot. The finger slot is weird because it's only used for 1 item that has no uses outside of mods(retarded magic rings)
bethesda already barely made games that could be called "good" now they have microshit up their ass mismanaging them when they already struggled to make working UV maps
>>731081951I remember this guy getting btfo by afro game dude back in the day
Bros... we're so fucked
>>731081951Youtube niggers with ragebait are such fucking retards. How many of them is there plus the clickbait fags and doomers? I'd rather read the direct sauce every single time than listen to some loser on youtube making money out of this.
>>731082220they only announced this shit to trick Microsoft into buying them
>>731068832>Ditch the RPG stuff and give the people what they need; immersive simulation.I like RPGs and I still don't know what immersive simulation is.
>>731082220yeah no shitthe kuhlmann interview basically confirmed they have zero vision for the game
>>731069943>you click mouse or hit right bumper >you attackhow else are you supposed to "design" combat? And don't say soulsslop/rollslop/parryslop. All basic shit from 2011. You guys just complain about everything
>>731082220Instead of TES6 we got 76 and Starfield. This is unexcusable.Just have the 100 best devs work on it so it can release. The more people they use the worst it can become because development is far more complicated. Just let the modders they hired help too.
>>731082368I think imo the combat needs to be a bit more weighty like in Dragons Dogma series. Hitstop can help with the proper sounds and how enemies react to hits and how the first person camera move which was the only thing fixed in Skyrim.You don't need souls trashy combat with health sponges and enemies with infinite stamina and magicka.
>>731082552everyone of their "best devs" left years ago retard how do you think we got starfield in the first place? and if creation club is anything the modders sold out and only get to make "Official" dogshit
>>731068291Same retarded leak againhttps://x.com/TheGameVerse_/status/2003134244030431272
>>731082938Nigger, Starfield needed outsourcings and it had no vision regardless of who developed it. All you need is a smaller team with proper communication among the team and obviously a fucking plan and a white board with a post tip wall. You subhumans trash should watch docs instead of crying like niggers on welfare and learn a thing or two.
>>731080401>hoondingbornI hold in my heart the hope that Bethesda will have the good sense to make the the MC the Hoonding, solely because I want the MC to be colloquially known as the Hoodnig, it'd be too funny.But I don't believe there will be no Sowrd-singing, the Redguards have the Ansei which are dudes that manifest spectral armaments, that alone is a cool concept to build off of, and could be the game's version of shouts.
>>731083191I hope it's High Rock so all the faggots stop bitching about nigger scrolls. HR is the last province who still fully support the empire so that's my theory why i keep saying it will happen there and possibly in early 5E so time passes between the events of Skyrim and Hammerfell fully go independent off screen.
>>731082946>Factions: Mages GuildEvery time.
>>731069943It's pretty much a given combat will be improved in TES6. Pretty much no one debates that FO4 has much better gunplay than FO3 and Starfield has better gunplay than FO4. Combat is like the one thing they indisputably improve with each new game.
Just thinking about TES6 gets me giddy. Bethesda is cooking. It's been 15 years since Skyrim. The difference will be like between Baldur's Gate 2 and 3.
>>731083615The one thing I liked about starfield is they had a p90 styled gun from the start and a lot of their guns had mags you loaded from the top.
>>731082938>>731083181Gamers have no concept of what a passion project actually is. A sequel to an enormously popular franchise is the definition of a corporate-mandated cash cow. Meanwhile an experimental game under a new IP and a dramatically different setting is an obvious risk no matter how you slice it. Starfield was the passion project. TES6 is the business decision. If you prefer TES6 it's because you prefer soulless business-mandated design. Accept it. Internalize it.
>>731083804kek
>>731083495>possibly in early 5EThat's retarded if you've played any game besides Skyrim.
>>731083804It's going to be Starfield with swords
>>731083804Would you say you're having a blast.
>>731083615Anyone saying otherwise is probably a youtube grifter. FO4 guns selection being garbage doesn't make the gameplay worse. Put pipe weapons and these shit guns in NV and the fanboys would cry about its gameplay.>>731083871What kind of mental gymnastics is that? Starfield is their worse game since Redguard, the spin off projects should be handled by the B-team or even C-team.The A-team should solely focus on mainline TES and Fallout.
>>731083495Honestly, I could see it.But since bethesda is retarded they might consider HR too similar to Cyrodiil and since they just released the Oblivion remaster, I don't think they're working on an ES set in High Rock right now. Maybe the next one will be.
>>731083615It's easier to improve combat that revolves around guns, especially when the bar was so fucking low with Fallout 3. It was IMPOSSIBLE to not majorly improve the gameplay in Fallout 4 compared to 3. Starfield was also an improvement on Fallout 4, but not that big as you might think. But gameplay isn't all just about how guns feel, sound, behave, it's also about things like enemy AI, which was not good in Starfield or any Bethesda game so far.Creating good sword and shield, bow and arrow and magic combat is a lot harder to do. It's hard to imagine it being worse than Skyrim, but I wonder how they're going to do this. Is it going to be something like maybe For Honor, Dark Souls? Knowing Bethesda, it's probably going to be Skyrim but a little bit better.
>>731083871>if you prefer the actual good setting with thought through decades old lore over Emil's senseless slop it's because you ackchyually prefer soulless corpo stuff or something idkEbin.
>>731083191You'd have to stop emil physically. He cant help himself but to make his protagonists special
on it's 3/3/33 release date I will be 41 years old :)
>>731084150TES3 and 4 were in late 3E and Skyrim in 4E and eras are never the same length and i don't know why desu.
>>731084346This will be FO5 launch if everything goes as planned unless they go for November as usual.TES6 is likely bound for 2028 according to devs timeline and what information is available on the net.
>>731069686>Credits 4KBut why?
>>731084323Physically? Don't worry, I can take him.
>>731084581Youtubefags think it's a selling point in watching their shit. Youtube defaults to 720p most of the time.
>>731084578>TES6 is likely bound for 2028 according to devs timeline and what information is available on the net.Wasn't it hinted for 2027?
>>731068291you are an idiotthe elder scrolls 6 takes place in ENGLANDmagic will be gone from the worldbrown people are the enemytodd howard is the voiced protagonist and becomes king of all the world with his faithful wife pretty kitty at his side as the queen
>>731084759>emil is a gingerSeriously fucked up he blacked sam and his ex-gf. Thats some ginger on ginger violence
>>731084805If devtime started in late 23 post Starfield, 28 is more realistic when the usual cycle is 5 years for such games.Fallout 76 fucked the development cycle of Starfield and with Starfield they didn't know what they wanted and it was bound for 22.
>>731082220Sorry, gotta wait 11 years 11 months and 11 days
>>731077364>>731080352People were always exhausted of dei sloppa that's why they all flopped. Nothing changed since they're still releasing dei sloppa that flops
>>731084276>>731084317It's important to make the real distinction between passion and corporate products because confusing them causes gamers to make really stupid claims that reeks of "muh late stage capitalism" retardism. Everyone wants to imagine themselves as a special flower detached from soul sucking corporate mandates.In reality, the business decision is often the correct decision. Sometimes the creative is up their own ass with some sophomoric idea that needs to be reigned in. Financial considerations impose structural constraints that prevent the product going off on some fanciful goose chase of half-thought out concepts. They also keep a product relatable because businesses have their ear to the ground of what the market, i.e. you the gamers, is actually asking for whereas the creative often gets in his own headspace of ideas literally only he enjoys.
How does Bethesda even earn shekels when the last major game they've released was a gigantic flop? Prior to Starfield they had zero releases.
>>731084353All first four games took place in the same era less than 40 years from each other. Uriel Septim is the Emperor from Arena all the way to Oblivion. The only reason there's a two centuries timeskip in Skyrim is because the last game ended with Tamriel in the post-apocalypse and the interim was used to build the Thalmor up. Skipping again to the Fifth Era for no reason in TES6 is retarded and it reeks from "w-well Oblivion is Third Era and Skyrim is Fourth Era so obviously TES6 will be Fifth Era!".
>>731085046DEI slop is probably payrolled by some long nosed individuals.
>>731085046According to your very low intelligence, Skyrim is woke because Redguard women have sex with Nord men. There's even male Nord and female Altmer couples. One Redguard male with female Breton in Dragon's Bridge.
>>731085090Fallout 76 is a bigger revenue earner than you think. There's a reason they keep updating it.
I am going to be honest.I think the game is going to suck.
>>731085216Interracial relationships are trad and Chudcoded so it's fine
>>731085273>legends wasn't designed as something they could shoehorn into 6 as a minigameyeah no shit it's gonna suck, thousands of years and not one of them invented card games
>>731085070Don't care, work on TES and Fallout and have other teams develop your spin offs.Cycles being 5 years or more is what cornered them anyway. It used to be 3 years and less during 7th gen. If AI can speed dev cycles and games are still the same quality people expect then go use it.
>>731083181>All you need is a smaller team with proper communication among the team and obviously a fucking plan and a white board with a post tip wall.they went over this tons of times over the years they will NEVER do this again, todd said starshart was a passion project and look how soulless it came out, do you really think they can make a good game again? >>731083871lmao great bait
>>731068291I don't know much about TES, but after doing a tiny bit of reading after a quick Google search, it seems like Redguards and their land Hammerfell are inspired by Middle Eastern/Arabian civilizations? So, why are people here talking about blacks? I'm hoping for something straight out of 1001 nights with vibes like this.
>>731085118I get your point but i think the small gaps works better for Fallout. 50 years post Skyrim would work for me.
>>731085474>gamers when you shatter their misconceptions>"b-bait!"
>>731085273Yeah. Not only is it gonna be set in niggerland hammerfell. It also doesn't have the hype Skyrim had when people were waiting for it. The last couple Bethesda titles have been complete ass and thus it has lost the trust of the gamers. I wouldn't say it's dead on arrival because it's still an Elder scrolls. Alot of people are still gonna give it the benefit of the doubt but it's not gonna be anything spectacular.
>>731085506>So, why are people here talking about blacks?American culture
>>731085506Cause they're charcoal black negroid genome, the arab races don't exist in elder scrolls you lorelet
>>731085320Not IRL but that's a fantasy game but it would be funny to see beast x human/elf just for teh lulz.
>>731085216>There's even male Nord and female Altmer couplesO-oh no whoever would want that h-haha ewww hahaha...
>>731069523>>731069674I fully expect them to make the game harder to mod. Some of it will be buggy frameworks that are so hard to work around that people don't bother messing with it (like how the civil war is impossible to fix because of how spaghetti it is). They also can't let mods be as free to the community as they are now, because it will make paid mods too hard to implement.
>>731085380Legends is shit by virtue of ruining Titus Mede II wielding Goldbrand during Battle of the Red Ring.
I'm gonna go ahead and make a prediction, a prophecy if you will.Remember that shit they did with Oblivion remastered? How they released it immediately after announcing it.That's probably gonna happen with Elder scrolls 6 too.
>>731069523HD graphics are killing the modding scenes and now its mostly just small tweaks, 3d model rips, anyone with enough skill to 3d model to that level of detail would rather just go pro. I don't expect anything like skyrim
>>731085474The failure of TES Redguard forced them to succeed with TES3 so yes it's possible.Fallout 76 wasn't made by the A-team and all the teams helped a bit to make a mp game on a 25 years old engine.
Today, I will remind them... of the kino, lost to the ages.https://youtu.be/PjqsYzBrP-M?t=4
>>731085841Yes, I think it will be shadow dropped this year and Valve will do the same with HL3 in the not too distant future.
>>7310848052027 would be plausible if they followed their old model of a release every 3-4 years but I think it's much more likely they'll take longer with TES6 given the immense expectations. The consequences of rushed release are just too damning in this day-and-age to ever risk a quick turnaround on an established franchise.
>>731085506It's Middle Eastern North African basically. Redguards can have blue eyes too with straight hair as seen with "Saadia"
>>731085621So, you're telling me that they appropriated another peoples civilization and culture for blacks to push their propaganda?
>>731086025Yes
>>731085564>Gamers have no concept of what a passion project actually is.its its a passion project then why did it have the full force of bethesda and microsoft behind it? don't forget they outsourced the development to 1000 indians to rush it out faster, very passionate. >A sequel to an enormously popular franchise is the definition of a corporate-mandated cash cow. Meanwhile an experimental game under a new IP and a dramatically different setting is an obvious risk no matter how you slice it. Starfield was the passion project. sounds like they thought it would be bigger than no man's sky but forgot to put any of that passion into it at all, you don't spend that much on marketing for a little passion project>TES6 is the business decision. If you prefer TES6 it's because you prefer soulless business-mandated design. Accept it. Internalize it.actually not making another tes because you know it will take away from your shitty cash cow mmo is a "business decision". face it the real reason they haven't made games its the skin sales for ESO and fallout 76 print them money, you're just delusional if you're not trolling.
>>731085675That's the couple that refuses to help Cicero fix his wagon wheel. if you snitch Cicero the couple ends up murdered later after the first BH quest part of the script
>>731069523Couldn't save Flopfield.
>>731068291We wuz kangz
>>731085948I still remember the hype i felt seeing this shit. Or that first teaser. I was glued to the internet trying to find scraps of info about the game. I've never felt that way about another game since.
>>731068291>a regular ship building system with which you can sail the Bay and get into pirate battleslmao you aren't getting anything that cool
>>731085871but they were going bankrupt then, now they're owned by microsoft and they let Halo, their most popular xbox franchise, get fucked for 15 years straight.
>>731086284Personally TES4 hyped me more than TES5 but i was still hyped. DD2 was the last game to hype me and it ended up being a huge disappointment although the real ending was cool.
>>731086000I just looked up Saadia, and indigenous people from North Africa and the Middle East cannot be that black unless they race mixed with Africans. I think it's quite clear they want Americans to view Redguards as black but utilizing another people's civilization.
>>731086461DD2 had alot of expectations going for it. And these fuckers did the absolute bare minimum hell i'd even go as far as to say that it was worse than the first game. It still makes me mad to think about it.
>>731086367CoD4 buried Halo 3 first of all and most hardcore fans only care about the original trilogy. Everything after that was just milking an IP for monies. Infitinite was basically HOW DO YOU DO FELLOW HALO FANS and that's it.
>>731084353Because TES eras are not a consistent unit of time, they're more like historical periods. They begin and end whenever something really major happens and somebody in power bothers declaring a new era.
>>731085046>>731085194It's almost like there is some kind of 12 trillion dollar investment firm called blackrock, or something, demanding you need dei elements to get investment funds from them. And they're so big and powerful they're being called the 4th pillar of government.
>>731086352B-but spaceships in Starfield were cool! Didn't you love spending half the game with the shitty Frontier both because replacing any one piece was expensive as fuck relative to quest rewards and because you were forced to unlock basic gameplay mechanics with level up perks which meant the already gutted loading screen simulator that was space felt even worse? Now you can do it all over again but instead of failing to live up to No Man's Sky, it can fail to live up to Ass Creed Black Flag!
>>731077213Honestly it has more RPG elements than skyrim.
>>731086559They're black but not basketball Americans burning looting and murdering. Those are the Orcs doing that.
>>731086025Redguards used to be first and foremost pirates with a stereotypical pirate aesthetic, with the middle eastern inspiration being largely limited to some of their architecture and a minor subculture of desert nomads. Redguards did not get flanderized into>durka durka my name is hamood al-satakal and i al-live in the al-desert of al-hammerfell and i al-love my al-curved al-swords! now let me al-behead you al-infidel!Until the shitty MMO.
>>731086781But the Orcs haven't burned down Orsinium like four times, R*dguards and Br*tons are guilty of that.
>>731086687A comically evil organisation. Literal comic book villain tier shit.
>>731068832>Ditch the RPG They alreayd did that and Elder Scrolls becaome the biggest video game in the world.
>>731086672and how does that change the fact that they still tried and failed? the point wasn't that halo was good retard its that microsoft is clueless on how to manage shit in the modern era
>>731082946https://youtu.be/uSlgKy-9cf0
>>731069943You don't really need "good" combat in TES games. It's meant to be simplistic so the RPG stats matter. Making it skill based like in chivalry would break that. Skyrim with mods that improve 1st person combat is more than adequate. Even Morrowinds combat is fine becuase it relies even more heavily on RPG mechanics with things like hit chance.The issue is that Bethesda can't commit, and keep dumbing down their games. I fully expect the RPG mechanics to be even more watered down and the combat to be a major focus(but still bad) instead of build design.
>>731086964Bretons are based off the French and it's so fucking obvious with French names. Imperials were always Romans. Khajits are Gypsies, Argonians are pure fantasy and elves are just fucking elves.
>>731086135>its its a passion project then why did it have the full force of bethesda and microsoft behind it?The game was already well under way before the Microsoft acquisition and they were desperate for exclusives so no way were they going to cancel any existing project and wait even longer for the team to develop a whole new game. Zenimax CEO Robert Altman was genuinely apprehensive about the idea because space games don't sell that well and launching new IPs is risky. He greenlit it basically as a favor to Todd and the rest of the old Bethesda crew because they had been carrying the whole publisher on their backs for.>don't forget they outsourced the development to 1000 indians to rush it out faster, very passionateLiterally every single AA and AAA studio does this. Naughty Dog and Fromsoft contract with the exact same Indian dev, Lakshya Digital. The only reason Rockstar doesn't do it is because they straight up have their own Indian office. Even with "indie" studios like Larian, they have a Malaysian office. It's inescapable. With the scope of modern games being as big as they are and labor costs as expensive as they are, studios have to outsource.>you don't spend that much on marketing for a little passion project1) They still have to cover their costs, retard.2) If you made your dream game, why wouldn't you want to share it with as many people as possible?>actually not making another tes because you know it will take away from your shitty cash cow mmo is a "business decision"You're a fucking retard who lacks the capacity to think outside himself. The very fucking fact that the entire internet is screaming for the next Elder Scrolls is a pretty good fucking indicator that they're actively losing money but not releasing a new Elder Scrolls. Believe it or not, you make money by releasing games that sell. And games that people want sell better.
>>731087218What about the kingdom of brittany, of which the bretons were located in actual history?
>>731087149Microshit can't even manage Windows anymore so that company is going to die whenever the AI stuff crash.
>>731087008even named after a demon from another planet kek
>>731087218High elves are just regular ass elves. Wood elves are forest dwelling tribal cannibals. Dark elves are pretty unique too.
>>731087321Do they have French names or it's just a way to treat that race as mixed within the setting?
>>731087427More brythonic/welsh iirc.
>>731087384I mean do they have IRL counterparts? I can't find one for elves and the lizards.
>>731086781lorelet retard
>>731087543I have no idea what the real world counterpart for Argonians and Dark elves would be but honestly do they really need one?
>>731087309>The game was already well under way......wild they did such a bad job then its one of the most sauceless games i have ever played, there are interviews with the team about the game post mortem saying they had no idea what they were doing and todd was too busy with indiana jones to help, once again very passionate>Literally every single AA and AAA studio does this.excuses are just that. outsourcing only exists to save time and money and that's not passion, YOU are the one that made the argument it was todd's love of the game that's the reason they made this slop and "not another corporate product">1) They still have to cover their costs, retard.but I thought it was a passion project with risks and only greenlite as a favor to todd?>2) If you made your dream game, why wouldn't you want to share it with as many people as possible?no actually because other people are fucking retards and conditioned to enjoy things wrong on purpose to make money like battle passes >You're a fucking retard who lacks the capacity to think outside himself.

Believe it or not, you make money by releasing games that sell. And games that people want sell better.are you even the original guy i was replying too bro? >>731083871read the fucking post numb nuts >If you prefer TES6 it's because you prefer soulless business-mandated design. Accept it. Internalize it.
>>731087543>>731087889Argonians *shouldn't* have a "real world counterpart" but the novels and the MMO *did* undeniably give them Aztec/Mesoamerican elements, so if you consider those canon there's that
The last information known about TES6 that grifters don't even know is that TES6 will have more trees in total than in Skyrim.That information alone, is telling me it's High Rock unless Hammeffell somehow have more forests than Skyrim on paper and in practice.>>731087889Nah, it was more for the human races but khajits are stereotypes of scamming IRL races.
>>731088091Hammerfell has had jungle and forest regions in lore since Daggerfall, it's not one big desert
>>731087889Dark elves are Indian based on some aspects like their gods
WILL TES VI BE FEATURING HORSE ARMOR?
>>731088153Is this >>731070514legit?Otherwise i have no idea what Hammerfell looks like.
>>731088201I could see them use armor for extra storage and protection from random attacks. Maybe even buy your personal carriage to "fast travel" along the roads as immersive travel. It's easy to do and just copy DD2 with random attacks when you fast travel to make it less boring.
>>731088176I always thought Khajit were jeets.
>>731088565>you know them cats calling themselves kha-jeets Always laugh when the carriage guy say that line.
>>731088273The northern shore is based directly on what it was like in Daggerfall, rest is supposition
>>731088565Nah they're desert dwellers they were probably the original arab race before the gimmick was given to the redguards
>>731088794Apparently it's not even that developed within TESO compared to Elsweyr of all places. They didn't make much content from that province so it might also be Hammerfell or maybe both HF and HR but i highly doubt the latter.
>yfw TES6 is developed with the Creation Engine and a UE5 wrapper on top like Oblivion Demastered>yfw not only is it a worse game than Starfield, it looks uglier too and requires five times as powerful a computer
>>731089383anyone with hope for a bethesda game after the last 10 years has somehow not been paying ANY attention
A lot of Nord women are migrating to Hammerfell because of Ulfric's war.
>>731087996The long and short of it is that space adventures/RPGs do so poorly that you should assume they're passion projects by default because no corporate exec would willingly greenlight one unless the creative lead twisted their arm.>there are interviews with the team about the game post mortem saying they had no idea what they were doing and todd was too busy with indiana jones to helpSure it probably wasn't EVERY employee's passion project. Mostly the older ones who remember The 10th Planet getting cancelled. But you should also consider the fact that these ex-employees are trying to externalize the blame for their own fuckups. Every large company I have ever worked at has bureaucratic bloat, it's just a fact of any organization that reaches a certain scale. But I can still get stuff done. Meanwhile the teams who complain the most about it are always the ones who are just really slow. Of course they're not going to admit their biggest dev hurdle was getting distracted by cat videos while working from home.>outsourcing only exists to save time and money and that's not passionNo shit. But when your project is projected to cost $200 million, you need to cut costs somewhere. Being super passionate about a fucking rock texture is going to blow up the budget.>but I thought it was a passion project with risks and only greenlite as a favor to todd?If that's your bar for what is considered a passion project then literally no game outside of the most obscure indie shit and fan mods is a passion project. Devs work full time and if their game doesn't make money, they get laid off. Obviously even among games that intend to make money, some are more passionate than others.>no actually because other people are fucking retards and conditioned to enjoy things wrongThis is just schizo autism. No normal person thinks this way. If I made a game, I'd want a lot of people to play it.
>>731085841This would not suprise me.
>>731089383It just works on the intended systems AKA the PS5 and Series X.PC ports are a second thought for the majority of games. It's all up for user error and trial.
>>731082368>low-IQ, low-skilled, common retard can't imagine how to do combat betterBethesda knows precisely who they are designing their games for, and you are a classic example of their target audience
>>731089649yeah I agree, everything points to that they should not & could not have made starfield and should have made TES6
>>731083615>pretty much>Pretty much>or>in other words>i have no idea>but I am a bethesdadrone>so i am literally pulling this out of my assPipe down, moron, please.
At this point our only hope for a good Elder Scrolls game would be for an indie studio to make an Elder Scrolls clone based on Daggerfall or Morrowind using a good but affordable physics engine and made with actual hardcore RPG rules.Seriously why hasn’t this been done yet I’m sure it’s doable with must have the tools to replicate an almost 30 year old game and a 20 year old game by now.If Indie games could stop trying to make pretentious arty farty crap of “the game has to be ART with deep meaningful themes about my existential angst!” they could probably replicate a lot of good ideas we used to have in gaming.
>>731089003High Rock in ESO is very generic western fantasy, I'm pretty sure it's the first zone they made. The architectural style gets recycled for another generic human buildings in other provinces, like Cyrodiil and Skyrim. A few pop up in the Morrowind starter zones. I think they made it that way so that when BGS makes VI, they don't have to worry about being consistent and say the landmarks and architecture has changed over the 1000 year gap. The VI version of Daggerfall is NOT going to be beholden to ESO's
>>731087202>You don't really need "good" combat in TES games. It's meant to be simplisticExactly. Bethesda designs their games exclusively for the lowest-skilled, lowest-IQ, most casual players, the kind who are just moving on from playing Minecraft, Splatoon and Mario Odyssey.
>>731090116what are you talking about? they retcon entire areas in oblivion and skyrim with generic fantasy they will do it with tes6 too>>731087202you mean the rpg stats they keep making simpler every installment?
>>731087427Bretons are Devonshire Cornish who fled across the Channel when the West Saxons moved it. Cornish are the Bretons who didn't have to flee because their land was literally just a sand dune the saxons weren't interested in.
>>731085841I'm betting you're right. They're either going to shadowdrop TES6 outright or (re-)announce it within weeks of release.1) Todd has always said that he's not a fan of long marketing cycles and he'd shorten the announcement->release timeline to like a week if it were up to him.2) Internally, Bethesda feels burned by Starfield's long marketing cycle. Fan speculation and media narratives got out of control.3) Apparently the Oblivion Remake sold way better than anticipated; sales were not hurt at all by the shadowdrop. Anecdotally, one of my friends logged onto steam for the first time in 7 years to play it.
>>731089990Nobody gives a shit what your crusty, dementia-ass thinks, Junior.
>>731085841why would they do that? they got shredded by the gaming industry for giving zero heads up when oblivion dropped
>they have any hopes for TES6>at all"Hey welcome to Starfield, now create your character, Look, you even get to pick a background and choose some related skills to give you a boost! Ah that’s a great character. You’re a bounty hunter/cargo ship pilot/chef/medic/diplomat/explorer/sculptor/etc.? Yeah that’s awesome, that’s great… but actually you’re a dirt miner on planet bumfuck. Go do mining. K now touch this glowy rock because your boss ordered you to. K now you're not a miner anymore, you’re Space Dragonborn and can get Space Shouts. Go shoot a dozen bandits then take this ship that isn’t yours and can only be used to be forced to solo an entire space pirate stronghold as if you're not a singular human then go listen to a bunch of weirdo space nerds talk for an hour about how you’re magic now and are gonna join them whether you care about the glowy rock or not. Okay, NOW can you go actually do what you built your character to start doing, which you could have been doing for the last two hours".Amazing first impression for your first new IP in 25 years, Todd. Bethesda’s never had very satisfying 'main quests' but pretending to give you meaningful background just to get railroaded into dirt farmer becomes immortal space Jesus probably takes the cake. Solving having a disappointing main quest by never having an ending was also pretty novel, I'll give 'em that, even if it’s completely batshit. Impressive how they managed to utterly unlearn the universal complaint of how long Fallout 3’s intro sequence was, and actually made it even worse.
>>731091074The fuck are you talking about. Gamers were at the pig trough immediately eating that slop like it was a gourmet meal. The remaster sold like hotcakes.
>>731091294For gamers that was true. But all game journalists whined that they didn't get to cover news and previews for it beforehand, and other devs were mad they had to compete with zero warning at that date
>>731091413No one gives a shit about game journalists. Literally no one takes them seriously or listens to their input.
>>731091294>post filtered by 200 users I wonder why? >slop You newfags are spamming any buzzwords into oblivion until you wonder why nobody takes you seriously.
>>731091484I fucking wish that was true, but it isn't
>>731091413who cares? games journalists are like 28 people total now man, it's not 2012 anymore
>>731091413Speaking of journalists, Bethesda black listed Jason Schrier because he spoiled FO4 iirc.

>>731093174Yeah sure anon... >Vidya Balan Holy fucking what the fuck? At least she's not bad.
>>731091413>>731091552Companies don't cater to gaming journalists out of some industry loyalty, lesser known games need that media coverage for marketing exposure. But major franchises are starting to reevaluate if the coverage is worth it. If even just one journalist gives a bad review, haters are going to circulate it around the internet and depress sales.And especially in Bethesda's case, most of the "Todd lies" come from media coverage mis-phrasing something rather than anything Bethesda said themselves. E.g. Todd never said "See that mountain, you can climb it." He said "You can walk all the way to the top of that mountain," there was never any implication of a climbing mechanic. Or with Fallout 3's 200 endings, he immediately followed that it only worked that way due to all the permutations of ending slides.
If its anything like starfield I literally don't want it. I'm never giving bethesda a single dime ever again. They wanted some $90 for the ugliest fucking xir I have ever seen in my life. Absolutely not. Never again, no fucking way. I'll give some random fuck $20 on patreon for a good looking character before I ever give Todd more money for the most jank and busted looking piece of shit imaginable. There's not enough words to describe how much I hate starfield and bethesda. They literally tried to sell you a game where they just deleted the pipeboy screen and called it a character creator, again. Fuck it man. Fuck it all.They are literally not even going to try. I am not even going to bother. Not going to wait a fucking year for decent mods this time around.

>>731069686me and the boys when Todd needs us to program some vidya
>>731085841There is probably going to be a convenient "leak" at some point to get people talking about it again and not long after they're probably gonna drop it like that. That's how i think it's gonna go.
>>731069686Why do they keep hiring so many Jeets if it clearly keeps resulting in worse products? Like can you name a single project of any kind that has benefitted from having an abundance of jeets?
>>731068291Genocide time.
>>731093238Did you forget what the previous game offered?
>>731093649correct, at least other rpgs added interesting features on top of those numbers but a vast majority or starfield perks are just "do % more of thing" or perk gated basic features which is even more retarded
>>731093818yes, it's the same thing anon, having played more than 10 hours of both games it's the EXACT same thing, just like how the space powers are just reskinned dragon shouts
>>731093835>Interesting featuresIncorrect. All skills in all RPGs suck. We should go back to the days when there were no skills in RPGs and you could just do shit if you had the attributes.
>>731092486I love this little nigga like you wouldn't believe.
>>731075759I played it recently and then some update came out and broke it.It's not great, I played survival and went from a scurrying rodent to an unstoppable killing machine with a few gear changes. The point where I felt parity with the enemy was nearly nonexistent.
>>731093928shame attributes were the first thing todds retarded ass removed
Don't think nuBethesda is capable, this game will be a glazefest.
>>731093835>Perk-Gated basic featuresActually locking advanced gameplay to player choice? Absolutely fucking based.
>>731068379>>731092709Todd blames Redguard's failure on the fact that it didn't release on consoles.
>>731094151 >advanced gameplayi said basic for a reason pajeet
>>731093818This is a more involved progression system than it's given credit for. Fans just responded negatively because it didn't have "muh numbas", but the actual build diversity you get out of it is pretty good. By contrast TW3 literally had no builds by never drew the same ire because it had a lot of meaningless stats to distract players from its lack of build options.
>>731094209He's probably not wrong, relatively speaking. The PC market knew Bethesda's name unlike console players and an action adventure game like Redguard is not what they wanted from them. Meanwhile Tomb Raider sold buckloads on the PS1. With a good marketing push behind it, PSX Redguard would've certainly been far more successful than on DOS... in 1998.

I doubt the combat system in elder scrolls will ever improve but i hope atleast they make magic fun again.
>>731075165I played the Oblivion remake and I don't get why everyone acts like it's quantum physics compared to Skyrim. The level up system in Oblivion is super basic (and shitty) and the enchanting and alchemy system is way more restrictive. Skyrim's level up system alone makes it a much more engaging and complicated RPG. >muh spellcraftingYeah congrats you can make a spell that is fireball with the bonus effect of cold damage. That'll be 600 magicka (hard cap at ~1000, BTW)
I hat ehow often I have to write this. OblIVion )IV 4) SKYRÌM (Y written like V for 5) AkaVIr (VI for 6) every single tes6 is hammerfell is written by fucking bethesda employees so bethesda is hip again and can say: look! no fucking niggers! fuck the liberals!
>>731068832Bethesda jank with boats? Lol
>>731096932>he thinks Todd is gonna set a game in Akavir
>>731094986Because rando artists and execs aren't lore masters.
>>731097416You don't have to be a "lore master" to know whether one of the main factions in the game you're working on and for which you're designing clothes or dungeons is called the Mages Guild or not. Like imagine designing the weapons, armors and character designs for everyone in Jorrvaskr but not knowing they're called the Companions after five years of pre-production and three years of actual production.
>>731096932>AreIna>DaggerfaII>MorrowIIInd>OblIVion>SkVrim>HammerVIell>VIIalenwood>SVIIImerset>BIXck Marsh>ElsweXr
>>731097565Why would a contract artist or random exec know about "the Companions" and be working on "one of the main factions"?For Skyrim it would be the Empire and the Rebels, let alone Stormcloaks, but "Companions"?You have to be 18 to post here.
>>731097861Why would you asume a "random artist" would know enough as to list every single faction in the game and things well outside his area of expertise for which he'd need to be part of the team like the specific number of cities, whether the player has sword-singing abilities or not, whether the Dwemer return or not, then doing a 180 and naming the Crowns and Forebears by name, but getting the Mages Guild wrong?You have to be 18 to post here.
>>731097416Then why try acting like you are by giving silly story rundowns that involve ridiculous shit goblins being elves or "star people"?

Wild to me that Bethesda has done nothing with the setting for 15 years and counting. Zero. Nada. Meanwhile they commissioned two novels between Oblivion and Skyrim that expanded the world post-Oblivion Crisis and introduced Titus Mede I and the Thalmor to set the stage for TES5.>inb4 ESONot made by Bethesda and set 950 years before Skyrim. Utterly irrelevant. For fuck's sake, learn to keep your IPs alive with something beyond godawful paid mods. Give your writers and artists small projects to cook up, short stories, a few art pieces, it doesn’t even have to be specific to whatever province the game is set in. Showcase a random group of adventurers plundering an Ayleid ruin in Valenwood, or a short story about an Imperial adapting to life back home after being wounded in battle. I don’t know man, just give us something! Fucking revive the Adventures series and get some other studio to make smaller-scale games that are more experimental with mechanics and genre. Imagine owning THE ELDER FUCKING SCROLLS and willingly doing NOTHING with it for fifteen years. Utter insanity.
>>731099658According to old interviews, it actually took a whole lot of effort to convince Todd to let those novels be made and we now also know that he straight up declined Obsidian's offers to make New Vegas-esque side games for TES lmao
>>731099815I love Todd, but goddamn do I also hate Todd.

>>731074552you will never be white, rajesh
>>731070417ahem
>>731091074>shredded by the gaming industryWho?Oblivion remastered sold more than Starfield tenfold since every boomer bought it immediately and it was a good remaster unlike the constant Skyrim re-releases.
>>731102021>it was a good remaster
>>731102021>constantOne justified re-release a decade ago is constant/
>>731099261This was roughly what I was shown. It's supposed to be the beachhead of an Aldmeri Dominion invasion where Nord, Redguard and Imperial front line trenches form natural barriers to the world zone.So it's not a natural province but an invasion zone, I assume so they can make it any size or shape they want.All I know is they emphasized Anvil as "Don Quixote like the Witcher expansion" and Craglorn as "deep lore about people who worship stars before anyone worshipped the Imperial gods".That's what I heard and saw.
>>731102954Yeah yeah then Todd pegged you and everyone clapped.
>>731088167>Anvil region has a "Don Quixote vibe like the Witcher expansion"What?
>>731103023Lol.I won't name who, but some BGS people took us out to this place called Cooper's Hawk. Overpriced but cozy. I don't know if they were trying to bring us home after (lol, no they weren't).
>>731103141Yeah:>>731102954Roaming knights keeping the peace since the invading army is busy at the trenches, a kind of Spanish type countryside with vineyards. That sort of thing.Then in the North it's rocky mountains and so forth with a more exotic vibe.
>>731102954Imperial gods have been worshipped since tgs dawn of time in virtue of the fact that y'know, they're the objectively real ancestors of men and mer while the stars are just holes in the skyAgain, just give up dude, everybody who knows their shit immediately clocked your ebin fake leak as retarded
>>731103808I was specifically pitched "people who worshipped the stars before the elves worshipped their ancestors, before the Imperials banished the elven gods to worship their own."It sounds kind of like you're the one that doesn't know the lore.
I've said it before, they want to make the first modern TES game that features 2 regions.They know from ESO that no one plays Redguards much less people hanging out in Sentinel so they'll add High Rock and their generic fantasy setting on top of Hammerfell.Shipbuilding and base building will be back, the Alik'r desert and the forests and mountains within High Rock will be empty.
>>731103916>people who worshipped the stars before the elves worshipped their ancestorsThe elves have always worshipped their ancestors, they're known in-universe as the "elder race" for a reason>before the Imperials banished the elven gods to worship their own.The Imperials worship the elven gods, they didn't "banish" them, the Imperial religion is a syncretic mixture between the Aldmer and Nordic religionsClearly, either you or Modern Bethesda are quite clueless about how the setting works, not that i believe in your "leak" lol (why e vven get this defensive if it's actually true)
>>731104065>The Elder Scrolls VI: Daggerfall IIVery original Todd.
>>731068291yes yes but can i enter a building without a loading screen?
>>731104173It'll still be TESVI: Hammerfell but with the surprise entire High Rock region inside
>>731104303Come on now anon, they finally added ladders to Starfield only in your spaceship btw, not in the actual overworld. One step at a time.
>>731104303Hopefully not, I'd like to keep my FPS at a playable level.
>>731104357also forced 3rd person because it was apparently too much work to climb ladders in first person in tight enclosed spaces.
>>731104303The fact that Starfield was buggier than Skyrim despite Bethesda having more resources and time on it means that no, you'll still have to endure loading screens.
>>731107246>The fact that Starfield was buggier than SkyrimWhy lie?
>>731104171Eh, I’m inclined to believe him because a French leaker who’s gotten stuff right in the past said on discord he heard the plot revolved around the Magna-Ge and was heavily connected to Oblivion.
>>731068291I hope it's modeled after ESO so it doesnt have 88 million loadscreens
>>731108106>ESOYou are retarded.
>>731068291>Creation Club content at launchTrue leak
Test
>>731099815I would too, just imagine being outdone on your own IP by a smaller studio with less timeYou can clearly tell the difference too, how NV influenced Bethesda, before it, you were always forced to be the good guy and suddenly F4 you can choose which faction to side with
>>731108629>Todd and Microslop still desperate to push this pathetic garbageWhy didn't they just buy out Nexus wholesale before Blackrock did and charge the users there retroactively? Would've worked out better than this halfassed shit because Snoy are a bunch of control freaks when it comes to user made changes.
>>731092457>I literally heard someone explain that other possible areas "had too much lore" like related to Orcs, or those wild men from Skyrim, or Redguards, or Imperials. >The word was "blank canvas is easier."keep it simple stupid except people are starving for that lore wich can only be found in books otherwise
>>731112424Emil and his consequences have been a disaster for the vidya industry.
>>731089003>Apparently it's not even that developed within TESO compared to Elsweyr of all placesSounds like Bethesda said hands off because they want to focus on Hammerfell for TES 6. Like if Elsewyr ever gets a game it probably wouldn't be for decades
>>731112724SOON™
>>731112856More likely for Project Tamriel to get to Elsweyr than any Beyond Skyrim project getting a release
>>731092457>>731112424>let's deliberately not touch any of the lore the fans are familiar with and have been curious about for the past 20 years and have the game revolve around this tangential piece of ESO lore not a single soul in existence gives a shit about insteadsounds bafflingly retarded enough to be real
>>731113080you get it
>>731068291>No breton cuisine questIts so fucking over
>>731090098This is a good point why hasn’t this been done yet? Why is there such lack of ambition across the gaming industry in all fields?
>>731090098isnt that tainted grail?
>>731068291>starfield and fallout 4 featuresYIKES
