Poll of the Day > Bethesda e3 discussion topic.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Oh it's getting a PC release?

I wonder how close it will feel to a real ES then.

About as much as FO Shelter felt like a FO game. Also, the majority of people I know play TES for story, not the braindead gameplay.

The fuck is a preorder for a free game

How do you preorder a free digital game?

Well, it still needs to run on a phone. So it will be limited by the weakest link in the chain.

Starfield.

This better be good, Todd, Betrayer of Men.

Yay

star field is real huh
---

TES6
---

Oh man, Skyrim 2!

Oh come on they won't even say where?

Not even a name for Elder Scrolls VI yet? So at least 2-3 years then.
---

Okay, Bethesda. Good stuff lol
---

Fallout 76 releases on my birthday. So hyped!

Lmao, they have NOTHING worked on or developed for TES VI. You just fucking know that was there as damage control.

I rate this presentation a hearty D+. I could potentially be convinced to give it a C-

Based on looks, if I had to hazard a guess, looked like Summerset. But it was too generic.

But WHERE IS IT?

well

fallout is gonna be a dead ip again soon.

MMO = not interested.

Maybe they'll still show Starfield or TES6. Otherwise I've seen nothing here that I want.

Well technically they did announce both. No information on them, but at least it's a confirmation.

You're joking, ok?

This is like Marvel studios announcing "A superhero movie".

I'm so fucking angry Todd Howard has ruined E3 for me.

Well, that was a total waste outside of DO ME TERNAL

Yeah, it's not much. I figure some crazy super-fan will be able to figure out the location of TES6 from that footage, but hell if I can.

The last 60 seconds saved the entire conference from being an absolute dumpster fire. I was at 0/10, Starfield and ES6 teasers put it to a 4/10. That's as generous as I can be.

Just dropping in to say BETHESDA FUCKING KILLED IT TODAY.

DOOM!!!!

That's a given.

They haven't showed anything of Starfield either which releases before TES VI.

So at the earliest it would be Starfield next year and then TES VI in 2020.

It was basically tease-central and paced somewhat poorly, BUT....

The amount of stuff they have in the works is impressive. I can't believe how many projects they have concurrently. They must have a lot of personnel.

The important thing is that they covered the bases of not only what everyone was wanting with TESVI, but also had a few surprises in there as well, like with Doom 2.

I give it a solid 8/10

Just needed more show and less tell.

I don't even count Starfield or ES6. Nothing was shown, and we already knew they'd be coming. In fact, I'd almost they'd not have mentioned ES6, cause the way they did it just shows how little progress they've made on it. It's quite likely they're still in the creative stages of development and haven't begun real work yet.

Thats optimistic at best. More likely 2020 and 2021.
---

I'd say ESVI in 2021 at the minimum.
---

So they trolled us for nearly the entire conference, then dropped Starfield and ES6 right at the end...okay.
---

ES6 looking like a 2020 or 2021 release at the earliest. Good god. Imagine if the others followed that release schedule. ES Arena would have released in 1971.

I wanna see these Gamespot cuties wrestle in jello

It's fucking cringey seeing people stand up and cheer for a 20 second elder scrolls 6 "trailer"

They were just reusing the Skyrim theme which wouldn't fit thematically so I hope they don't do that

Looks fun to me as well.

Seriously, how does this fucking work when you can alter the map that much?

It all works. It just does.

I'm really interested in seeing how 76 works in practice. It could be fun.

They probably put that out there because a lot of people recently have been floating the idea that they might not want to make an Elder Scrolls 6 at all, because it would be hard to top the hype that Skyrim created, and because they can make more money farming out microtransactions in ESO than they can producing single-player games.

After all, it's easier to just mock up maps and landscapes in an existing engine, then slap minimalistic questlines and fetch quests in to justify the purchase price than it is to build an entire game and setting from scratch.

That's also part of why some people were annoyed when the Summerset expansion came out, because they took that to mean that, even if ES6 became a thing, Summerset coming out now meant it probably wouldn't be set there (and conversely, some people think the new focus on Summerset might mean that ES6 absolutely IS going to be set there, just thousands of years later, probably hundreds of years post-Skyrim.

But yeah, they might have wanted to put the brakes on speculation along those lines by at least officially saying "Yes, it's coming eventually, once we get other stuff out of the way."

Okay. My best guess based on the clip and what others are saying: it's probably Hammerfell. That would make the most sense.
