What the hell is taking them so long?
Who cares? TES is garbage.
>>739265553fpbp
>>739265423why would they make the game when they could make a .JPG of the title and get free advertising from you niggers for their other stuff for twenty years?
>>739265553One man's trash...
It's well known in the office that the developers had to scrap a lot of systems since the release of crimson desert.
>>739265827What?
>>739265423I imagine it's fear1. They want success but realize hammerfell would instantly get the WOKE stamp2. Technologically, they are falling behind, they have nothing groundbreaking to show, which means more internal wars about switching to some other engine like UE53.They desperately want to monetize mods, but realize it's going to cause massive backlash and boycott4. They desperately NEED modders, or else their game has very little fanbase and consistent playerbase (IE like Starfield)
At this point I don't ever think it's actually going to come out. I'm not kidding.
>>739265423Might have noticed that their last few releases have been flops and trying to figure out why.
>>739265423Our best man is on the case!
Todd said they need to "make it right" and they obviously want it to surpass Skyrim as the best RPG ever made and that takes time.
>>739266026couls be they will just delay endlessly and never release the game. if tes6 fails everyone can forget bethesda they have nothing else
>>739265423Todd is hard at work adding shrinking horse balls
>>739265423They worked on Fallout 76 from 2015-2018 (3 years)They worked on Starfield from 2018-2023 (5 years, 1 year delay from Microsoft, covid)They've been working on TESVI since 2023 (3 years)We can probably expect it next year, we'll definitely see it by then
>>739266269Buddy, it's been 20 years since skyrim came out
>>739266416Yeah and they didn't start developing the sequel until 2023 like retards.
>>739265423Todd's planning on retiring, he doesn't give a single fuck about leading people on for a decade about a game they never even started development on. I assume the rest of Bethesda are just in auto pilot mode counting the days twiddling their thumbs at their desks until the day Microsoft dissolves them for producing nothing.
>>739265861You're completely out of touch. People are ready for an alternative to nexus. Bethesda is providing that alternative with creation club. Some of the best content for starfield is actually paid mods. Also, stop trying to shill ue, oblivion remaster was dog shit.
>>739265423They're having trouble convincing the lisa frank hair colored women to work for once.
>>739265423Full development only started a few years ago. Expect to hear something by next year
>>739265423ESO happened
>>739265423I wonder if they are panicking at all after seeing the response to Starfield. At this point they must have realised they can't just half-ass these games forever, right? Specially considering how much hype there is for a new TES game.
I get the impression that games restart development like 20 times nowadays due to focus testing shit.
>>739265553>>739265571Shalom
Guess.
>>739265553This. Hasn't been a decent tes game in 25 years
>>739266269nah, i will actually be shocked if we see the game come out before 2030. My guess is 2032 at the earliest.
Bethesda seems very lazy
>>739268685What if they get to him eventually?
SAARfield showed Bethesda employs/outsources contracts to some 15k Indian devsThat will delay any game undoing their shitcode
>>739265423They panic announced it before even starting development and are still busy trying to engooden™ Saarfield
emil doesn't understand fantasy
>>739265423ESO was the capstone to the series there isn’t going to be another TES
They put that ad up to boost their value for the Microshit saleThough in reality they really started developing Hammerfell and got cold feet after seeing all those black games bomb to oblivion so they restarted the entire project and are now focusing on Skyrim 2
>>739268685DOA
>99% of their "talent" can only vibe code and produce UE5 slop because they had a couple of lessons in it>Most leave after a while because having bethesda on your resume is better than actually working there>Leave behind spaghetti code and abandoned projects>New saars arrive with the same skillsetThe entire industry is about to collapse
>>739268279Explain how not liking the elder scrolls makes you a jew
>>739274561b-because I said so!
>>739274561TES is the last White game franchise. And the next entry is going to be Brown.
i'm not the biggest TES fan but i've generally enjoyed the games. fallout 4 was mediocre though, and starfield was so bad i'm pretty convinced te6 cannot possibly be good
>>739274561Sam Hyde talks about this
>only 20m views after 7 yearsgrim
>>739266269>Spending all of that time and money on StarflopI don't even care about TES 6 but that's really sad for Bethesda redditors that care about their dogshit games
>>739265423they didn't actually start making it until late 2023absolute mystery why they chose to shit out a trailer that early
Who the fuck wants anything from modern Bethesda?I am so much more excited for Tamriel Rebuilt releases than Bethesda games.
>>739265423It doesn't exist lmao
>>739275401Its not a mystery. That would have been around the time that they first signaled to Microsoft that they were open to acquisition.
>company gets bought out by zillion dollar corporation>all the founders and or veterans check out and stop giving a shit>whatever was in develpment nosedives in quality>rampant outsourcing begins>quality drops to a new low>company implodesmany such cases
>>739265423It'll 100% be out by 2028.Trust me.
>>739265861>but realize hammerfell would instantly get the WOKE stampOnly /pol/ would care and they're a vocal minority (that'll still buy it anyway).
>>739268874They release new games every 3-5 years, there's no reason it'd take all the way to 2030 or 32.
>>739276698FifteenYears
>>7392654233.5-4 year average development time and a release in 2023.It's real obvious when you see the pattern.
>>739277008They were working on other games dipshit.
>>739275401>Making a Multiplayer game and know fanbase are retarded (see this thread for evidence)>Next game is an entirely new IP, so if you just drop its trailer, retards will wonder where the next TES is because they have no pattern recognition>Drop the trailer for TES 6 now as well.
>>739277220>working>fallout 76>starslop
Starfield was supposed to distract you
>>739277220Games nobody wanted
>>739265423poojeet coding
>>739265423monetization and dlcs
>>739277526Can't know a game is unwanted until after you've made it.And Starfield sure did sound like a good concept before the reality was shown.
It’s been longer since TES6 trailer to now than Skyrim coming out to the trailer
>>739265423All the good developers went zero sum
>>739276514>Still falls for the Russian Blackrock PsyopGrim
>>739277779>Starfield sure did sound like a good concept before the reality was shown.Yea mayhe it did but not with the bethesda logo on it
>>739274561Morrowind is the whitest game ever made.
>>739277415You have zero responses becuase nobody knows what the fuck you are saying Anon.
>>739277941It really does prove the point of the post, doesn't it?
>>739277220They can't delegate? They're huge. Seems wildly inefficient.
>>739266269Todd's confidence is completely blown. He genuinely believed everything he wanted in Starfield would be beloved. But it all got roundly rejected. His entire philosophy has been broken down for the first time. Todd Howard had never experienced failure as a director in his entire career until Starfield. He might double down with TES 6, or just phone it in and retire. And either way, it's not likely to be good.
>>739277494
>>739278020That even people that read Hegel have no idea what you are saying. You really are Hegel arent you?
>>739278272Until a game he makes doesn't make back what it took the make it, Todd won't consider it a failure.
>>739265861>Technologically, they are falling behind, they have nothing groundbreaking to show, which means more internal wars about switching to some other engine like UE5Switching to UE5 would delay shit even further and it's honestly still pretty bad for open world games like they make.The talk about switching engines is more in the realm of online arguments
>>739265423OP! You'll make Bethesda sad again!
>>739278321Let me simplify:>The people in this thread are retarded>Bethesda knows their fans are retarded, and would chimp out over the simple idea of them making a multiplayer game>So, they release the trailer for their next project, which is single player.>However, it's a new IP, and not TES, and they knew that their fans would chimp out and clain they're never making TES again>So they also release a trailer for TES 6.
>>739265423Every new open world rpg sends them back to the drawing board. Shit like Crimson Desert makes Tod sleepless.The era they could just ship half backed shit and people would buy it due to the lack of alternatives are over. At least they still have the brand name. A TES6 game will sell just because it's TES6, but if its shit it will ruin TES7 and beyond.
>>739278612I recommend you start taking your prescribed medication.
>>739278612Yea, its definitely the MMO that fucked us. Yoshi P blatantly admitted FF16 was just one big add for 14. I could see that being the model for AAA going forward as its just too profitable.Everyone says just make good games like E33 again but 8m sales is like 2 months revenue for a hit MMO or worse, gacha.
>>739265861Boycotts don't work, unfortunately.
>>739276698Development hell, scope creep is always possible There's already something that suggests the later: back in 2021-2022 Bethesda was saying they were developping creation engine 2 for both starfield and tes 6, while more recently todd said they were working on an update of the creation engine called Creation engine 3
