The Elder Scrolls 6 announcement is now as old as predecessor Skyrim was when The Elder Scrolls 6 was announced, and developer Bethesda hasn't shared another snippet since.
I’m hopeful. I’m sure I’ll get downvoted to hell cus how dare I enjoy things, but I’ve had fun with all their games. Even starfield. It was a departure and an attempt at something new. I still put in over a hundred hours on it. The ship builder was awesome and the ships themselves were super cool too.
Skyrim is still my 3rd most played game. And I’m pretty sure fallout is up there too.
You’re 100% allowed to just enjoy it and not worry about the drama. That said, we’re looking at the fifteenth year on the horizon with no follow up to Skyrim.
A “AAA” studio taking fifteen years to make a game is unacceptable. Especially when its a game that guarantees massive sales thanks to the IP’s pedigree.
Agree. If it comes out someday I’ll probably buy it and enjoy it. Even starfield I thought was fine. Not great, it was fine. BUT ain’t no way it’s been under development for 15 years. It’s been on the back burner. They’re terrified because they know they can’t top Skyrim, and that style of gameplay is no longer really accepted. (See - Starfield endless loading screens).
Idk why any shareholder holds Bethesda stock, I guess now that it’s Microsoft
Hoy take time i guess…

Bethesda leadership is incompetent.
Why is it unacceptable?
Also plenty of games have taken 10years to make or more. And dev on ES6 wouldn’t have started right as Skyrim was done. At least not on full.
Why does dev time matter anyway?

13 years since Skyrim released. Game development simply doesn’t take that long.
I dunno what this has to do with anyone I said. It’s also not true?
Like Prey took 11 years. FF15 took 10 years.
Why does it even matter that it’s been 13 years since Skyrim released? They wouldn’t immediately start development on ES6.
