Commissar SFLUFAN Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 During today's hearing between MSFT and the FTC, Phil just testified that The Elder Scrolls VI is "five-plus years" from release. So, looks like it'll be on the Xbox Series X2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbob42 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I figured as much. I bet it's in early pre-production at best, and probably isn't even that far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xbob42 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I wonder how many meetings they've had on whether to call it Skyrim 2 or not. Skyrim has been so much more massively popular than anything they've made before or since. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I feel like it’s aaaalmost a stretch to say it’s been announced, its “trailer” felt more like, “nobody was asking us for Starfield but that’s what we’re here to talk about; please don’t ask about ES6 we’ll get to it eventually.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve haven’t released flagship games that close to one another since Oblivion to Fallout 3 and they’ve only slowed since then. They had gotten close with stuff like Fallout 4 to Fallout 76 but I dunno that’s a model to emulate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I get supporting ESO. It seems to have a healthy subscription base that pays a monthly fee. I don’t get how Fallout 76 is still a thing getting resources. Move those people to Fallout 5 or Elder Scrolls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I’ve seen some bigger names in the gaming press and some devs talk about how a ten year cycle is becoming more common for AAA development but apparently none of them made it to my bookmarks so perhaps I made up the whole thing.

Fizzzzle Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 IIRC most of Fallout 76's development was outsourced, they just re-used a lot of assets made for Fallout 4. Fallout 4 came out almost 8 years ago. It begs the question - "what the fuck have you guys been doing for 8 fucking years?" If the answer was "building a new engine to make games with so that we can crank them out faster," then sure, I'd buy that. But we know they weren't doing that. Starfield still uses a form of the same engine they've been using to make games for the last 20 years (that in itself isn't a big deal - Red Dead Redemption 2 was made with the same engine as GTAIV, which didn't go into development that much later than Oblivion) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bafflingly bad. My wife and I started ESO a couple years ago or something and I can't begin to describe how frustrated we were that huge swaths of the game are solo only. WTF was the point of making this "online?" As it is, it's just a shittier Skyrim with some coop for the most mundane parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperclyp Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I played like 60-70 hours of ESO near the beginning of the pandemic, and it absolutely feels like a single player game. And honestly, not half bad. It does play like a over the shoulder Diablo knock off, but the stories were interesting enough that I actually quite enjoyed it. Part of it was just being in familiar environments with a fresh coat of paint, but there's nothing so wrong with that. Actually, I tried to do a few dungeons and at that time at least the game was so broken for multiplayer content that you couldn't reliably (in fact I never got it to work) match make into like simple dungeons.

Keyser_Soze Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 The Elder Scrolls 6 will skip PS5 and isn’t coming until at least 2026 - The Verge WWW.THEVERGE.COM Not exactly surprising. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Vic20 Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 At this point, I honestly wasn't. When company's toss around time windows like "5 years" you know they probably don't know what year the game will ship either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spork3245 Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 I feel like we’ll still be on this gen until 2027 because of the pandemic slowing the first 2 years of game releases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
