Elder Scrolls Skipping An Entire Generation: Smart or Stupid On Bethesda's Part?

[BobbyWojak]

‘well if things continue the way they’ve been I wouldn’t doubt Witcher 4 comes out around the same time as ES6

Fair, but I still think cdpr lucked out, that less discerning casual audience loved Skyrim, kids loved Skyrim. But even my middle age barber told me he played witcher 3 lmao so I don't know.

‘the show being a hit on Netflix helped it tremendously.

What do you mean it's skipping a generation?!? it's still coming out for Xbox series x/pc?!?

A new mainline Elder scrolls game skipped Xbox One/PS4 generation dumbass

After Cyberpunk, developers should take all the time they fukking need and release WHEN. ITS.READY!

This can’t be stressed enough.

I wonder what “when it’s ready” looks like for a bethesda game

We know this we literally begged Todd Howard for es6 and he blessed us with that flimsy teaser... I thought they was gonna skip this generation... I was like

I mean, modders are gonna fix whatever buggy mess Bethesda drops anyways

 

[Mowgli]

They still have the best first person campaigns in the game

Overall I'd say all their campaigns are good

Yeah Witcher is about to take off as the next big fantasy IP. People been looking to fill that void that Game of Thrones left behind.

Elder Scrolls mostly relies on the modding community in my opinion. They build a easily malleable foundation on which users can create.

With technological advancements, and the emergence of platforms of similar nature such as Roblox, that foundation becomes less and less valuable. That's not even talking about how other open-world games out here have changed the way people appreciate this type of games. It's going to be tough for some people to go back and accept the limitations inherent to the Elder Scroll model after playing the Witcher 3 or Breath of the Wild.

I don't think people are that hyped about an Elder Scrolls 6 and I don't think they should be.

I was playing (vanilla) Skyrim recently, and it's still a great game. there's an amazing amount of content in that game

Criticizing publishers for creating sequels to successful games instead of new ip Criticizing publishers for not releasing sequels and missing an easy bag

Make up your minds.

I'm excited for the Elder Scrolls 6 but they in the interim they could remastered 1-3 in the mean time and allow new audiences to experience those games.
