That only care about genderless activists b.s. like making all Woman characters look trans and ugly. With huge chains and no 🍑. That's said. I'll still hope they fire all the freaks.

You could feed your pet dog. See an NPC hunting deer in the woods 🏹 🦌. And No "FKING! PRONOUNS!!" Haha
I seriously can't understand why no AAA studio has made a game as in depth as RDR2 but in a fantasy style like Skyrim with all the loot systems and character building aspects.

They've made us wait 13 years and counting and if that's not heartbreaking enough, seeing the current state of bethesda just shatters your hopes of seeing a new beautiful world to immerse yourself completely... Remember when it was early 2000's and they were about broke, they spent their last energies in making the ultimate game and that saved them? The game was so good that players loved it even today. They can't stop loving it. That was Morrowind. Players helped Bethesda come back to life, but then they started getting greedy and this is now how they pay them back after all these years... TES is their last chance. It's their most important IP. It's one of the most iconic videogames franchise ever. I don't even wanna look how it turns out...
honestly i don't think ES6 will come out, instead what we have to look forward to is mods such as skyblivion and skywind, these are sort of recreations of the beloved older elder scrolls game in skyrim's engine and mechanics, these mods have been worked on for over a decade now, skyblivion is going to come out for the full release to the public in 2025 just around the corner here, so we at least have that to play this next year. the thing is i don't think it's smart to even look forward to what bethesda is planning, the modders often make better products for free while using Bethesda's very engine to make these creations, i mean have you heard of fallout London? that project released only a few months ago and it's getting regular updates daily and a lot of ppl are loving it, it seems to have better writing than bethesda does in their games lately, so again, it's the modders we look to for new gaming experiences, because these days bethesda doesn't seem to be able to get to the level that modders often reach in their own gaming engine, it's likely why bethesda tries so hard to get the modders on their side because they know they are more often than not beat by the modders of their own games. so don't dwell on what bethesda is going to make, instead look forward to what the modders have in store for us, because bethesda never seems to hit the mark that players want from them these days.
@@5226-p1e What blows my mind is why don't they just hire the modders? They do such a great job with limited resources and your company is essentially creatively bankrupt. Fresh ideas on a budget seems like a no brainer.

Why we haven't got elder scrolls 6 yet? Bethesda have been milking skyrim and it's modding community for years why bother releasing 6 when you don't have to do much? Also they made that empty waste of space game. Bethesda is a lazy greedy company reliant on its modding community to improve and finish its games and I'm picking free mods the ones not clearly broken will be a thing of the past once these clowns release it
I was just starting high school when Skyrim came out. Now I’m 5+ years into a career and buying a home. Literally the child in me is longing for the series follow up. Too bad it’s probably going to be a let down.
They have protracted Skyrim's success to the point that It's been like 13 years since we got a new game. Even they said they will never be able to fulfill the expectations that we rightfully demand and maybe it's better if we'll never get an TESVI. There are so many things they could fuck up such as: Lore Art style Gameplay Character design Roleplay elements Immersion elements I'm worried, because I love this series, perhaps it's my favourite fantasy series of all time.
Yeah......the mod community got tired of waiting around oblivion is coming to Skyrim next year. Like the whole game , it's gonna be a similar build to the tale of two wastelands mod for fallout 3 and Vegas.
I don't even want it until Bethesda changes DRASTICALLY. They need a change in management, to stop using the creation engine & to take a much different approach in their game design. Bethesda has been making the same game with a different coat of paint since oblivion and its just not good enough for people anymore.
I disagree with the take on Bethesda making the same game over and over again. Their game design was never the problem because games like Skyrim, Oblivion and Morrwoind, still hold up while Starfield aged in week. The problem is that they keep stripping away what makes their game design good in favor of some experiment and it kept getting worse with each game on top of just in general regressing their game design. With Fallout 4 they experimented with a voiced protagonist which messed up the dialogue system and made roleplaying harder. With Fallout 76 they tried to do multiplayer for an engine that couldn't handle it and resulted in one of the most infamous and buggy releases in gaming. Now with Starfield they took out meaningful exploration and decided to make a new boring IP that nobody is interested in. If they had simply taken the feedback they got from Fallout 4 and focused on making Fallout 5 and ES6 an improvement from Skyrim and Fallout 4, they wouldn't be in the mess that they are in or at the very least, they wouldn't be a complete joke now.
It's taking so long because Bethesda needs another big fantasy movie or tv show to ride the coattails of. Oblivion had Lord of the Rings, Skyrim had Game of Thrones...hell, a lot of things in Morrowind were approved because Todd could be convinced it was copying Star Wars' homework. Now that Hollywood is just recycling old ideas, Bethesda has nothing to go off of.
There's a huge difference between Blizzard+ Bethesda and Square Enix in multiple ways. Bethesda is split into 3 companies (Bethesda/Bethesda softworks publisher/Zenimax), Blizzard merged with Activision and is now owned by Microsoft, so oops, running under another 2 companies like Bethesda is. Square Enix is still able to churn out Final Fantasy games and other games, while MS has to buyout game IP's rather than making their own (it's been years since Fable, years since the last Gears of War, years since nearly anything from them that wasn't utter trash). Blizzard is doing the same thing as well (Starcraft, Heroes of the Storm, Warcraft RTS, etc). Just having an MMO doesn't mean all games are stifled to hell, it just means the company is too big/ doesn't care to do anything else due to risk aversion (which is why MS just buys what works and then messes it up spectacularly). Bethesda doesn't have the rights to tell Zenimax what to do, because Zenimax is the parent company and on top of that parent company is MS, so ESO cannot just be "shut down" to get ES VI to come out any faster, that's not how this works. If anything, it's not the "golden goose", because I see plenty of companies out there with their respective golden gooses and they still manage to churn out games. The only ones who have golden gooses and aren't churning out games are the bigger studios or bigger publishers who have so much money, they feel no need to do anything (T2, who owns R*, who makes GTA, MS who owns Bethesda/Zenimax/Blizzard/Activision, Epic who owns Fortnite, that also owns Unreal Engine, one of the most used engines on the planet). ESO doesn't need to be shut down to get a new ES game, let alone faster. It's the creation engine that needs to go, and Zenimax needs to stop being the parent company, and MS needs to be broken up like Google will be, so the pressure can then be put back onto those respective studios and publishers (take a lot of what MS owns currently and split it up, and watch them having to work much, much harder to get anything done).
There's a certain point where longer game development duration goes from eliciting optimism, due to a perception that the game will be more polished, to pessimism due to the likelihood that major issues at the studio are the cause. We are well past that threshold for ES6.
Fun fact that I like bringing up. There is a bigger gap between Skyrim and ES6 than there is between Morrowind and Fallout 4. If the Elder Scrolls 6 comes out in 2026, which is fairly likely, there would be as big of a gap as the one between Daggerfall and Skyrim. I just want a picture of a tree or something at this point.
If I remember correctly if we use the same development time they needed for Starfield, Fallout 4 & 76 and Elder Scrolls 5 they will need roughly 5-6 years starting from the release of their latest game, which would 2023s Starfield. So yeah more likely going to be 2028-29. This also matches the Statement of Phil Spencer who in 2023 said that TES6 is still roughly 5 years away. This would be a 17 to 18 year gap between Skyrim and TES6, which is the same amount as between TES: Arena and Skyrim.
Obsidian wanted to make a spin-off game in the Elder Scrolls universe, Bethesda rejected the proposal. This event is evidence to support your theory. Uninterrupted cash flow with TES Online above all else!
What I think is that maybe Star Field was just a warmup for the team to learn about the new creation engine, and the Elder scrolls 6 will be the main goal...hopefully
Deep inside me I still have the small hope that they'll pull it out. Starfield is not that bad for the first time they're trying such ideas... On the other hand, imagine a hand-crafted world and it's not gonna be about exploring hundreds of empty planets. They must get it right. Perhaps that's just me trying not to lose hope though
@@elkevinski Yes it is that bad. Starfield shows 2 things. 1. That Bethesda does not understand what makes their games great. They focused all their effort and resources in the completely wrong direction. Most people knew Starfield was going to be mediocre at best the moment they announced 1000 star systems. There is just no possible way to make that into an engaging and meaningful game experience. 2. The DLC showed that even if they try to recapture that magic and make a classic Bethesda style focused experience, they are just not capable anymore.
I almost think that they should have outsourced production on ES6, which makes me wonder where are their profits going? I would think between the success of ESO and all the various releases of ES5, they would be able to expand and have a second team of developers...
I just hope and pray that when it does come out, it isn't any woke nonsense and they make a wide world with depth and an actual intriguing story and characters with fun quests. Please Bethesda just make a good game when it come out 🙏
I was never one of these people who were hyper-addicted to skyrim. Beat it once and then fucked around dor a few ours a couple of different times. Loved the game but my bar is pretty low, genuinely only want skyrim with a couple new features and upgrades. Its gonna be hard to disappoint with the new release
my most anticipated game of all time. people are saying it will be bad because starfield was bad but starfield was bethesda trying something new. as long as we have ONE planet and obviously they know what they’re doing with TES i think we’ll be fine. It’s like saying someone isn’t good at playing the guitar but instead of telling them to get better, you say to them: “Well you were bad at the guitar so you will ALWAYS be bad at the guitar, don’t bother trying to improve.” The fanbase is indirectly telling Bethesda to give up 💀
Don't get your hopes up, it will be garbage. Skyrim was a very mediocore game with no depth. Weak story weak combat shit RPG elements. Mods and nostalgia only high points. Check out the Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon that looks and feels like it has a soul and Passion behind it
"Trying something new" wasn't the problem with Starfield. Items were bad, quests were bad and illogical, no meaningful consequences for anything, completely useless base building. These didn't have to be this way. Nothing new in Starfield forced the quest designers to produce crap. It all goa back to how Bethesda is managed. As long as Todd Howard and his incompetent cronies like Emil "I don't care about the story" Pagliaruo as lead writer are still in charge TES6 will end up just as terrible as Starfield. What Starfield showed however is that current Bethesda is incapable of making a compelling game and that a big part of the compelling nature of fallout and elder scrolls was other people's design and lore work.
My friend said to me in the 7th grade we'd never see another elder scrolls release after eso came out and its been 8 years now im starting ti think Jason was right
Oh, come on. Face it - there will be no Elder Scrolls VI. Bethesda have so far found much easier ways to make money. ESO is an MMO which brings money constantly through subscriptions. Fallout 76 is an MMO which brings back money through subscriptions, cash shop, and so on. These "products" were dirt cheap compared to Skyrim or Fallout 4, made by "B" teams without the need of any innovation. Starfield was a feeble try to make a Fallout-alike, in space, so there is no immediate comparison. It was a flop, but it can get another couple of years for Bethesda to do exactly nothing. Then? Todd probably retires rich and famous, the rest of the company - not much is left - is dishonorably disbanded by MS.
ES6 will be a conglomeration of DEI, Emil’s tremendous writing, piss poor optimization, a push for creations, horrible mainline and side quests that will still look 10 times worse than a fully modded Skyrim Hope you’re ready 😂
@@mn7306 We'll see once it's released. Current hopium is Bethesda's claim they are worried they wont meet diehard fans expectations isn't just code for "we are infiltrated".
I kind of see the ESO curse as a potentially good thing. If ESO is making steady money. It doesn’t put as much pressure on the development of ES6 (clearly). But often we see games come out being shells of what they could have been because of time constraints and investors/publishers wanting their money asap
Yeah, but that also means the single-player games become a side objective to them. Basically, putting their other projects on the side burner, none of the people working on it, will be passionate about it. Because all that effort goes to ESO and 76. The game ends up horrible, just like Starfield.
While I enjoyed some aspects of starfield I’m mainly pissed that starfield was the reason we haven’t gotten an elder scrolls 6. Maybe it’s for the best starfield struggled and got well deserved criticism that I hope will influence Bethesda going forward.
If they want to milk skyrim and eso, they just need to open up the ip. Star Wars games flatlined, thanks to EA's death grip on it. It got revived, albeit distastefully, but it did. I would love to see CD Projekt Red take the reigns on ES6
I was hopping when Oblivion came out each DLC would be another province, They could still done that with Skyrim too so we would in the end have the whole of Tamriel to adventure in. I watched a video not long back in which a Guy stated to a point true, the Tech advance's from Morrowind to Oblivion to Skyrim where leaps and bounds, but have slowed quite a lot in resent years, SO Beth could in fact make a base Elder Scrolls world and put out a year or two later a game sized DLC that built on that expanding that world and another a couple of years after and so on and still make great money based on the same tech and still be bloody awesome and maybe even return modding back to what it was back in the Morrowind, Oblivion days, a way for young up comers tp learn 3D skills for free and get known. sadly by the time we get the next game I'll maybe be to ole to play it and even Gopher will to too ole for me to watch rofl
After SO many big-budget movies, shows and games have BOMBED these last couple years.. I think studios are starting to become gun shy. It's simply safer to delay, delay, delay (and keep your job another year or two!)
Because its possible the devs have been plotting there new devious methods on how they might "appeal" the needs of console mod advancements and there players for TES V...
I believe it was three years from Morrow to oblivion and then four years from oblivion to Skyrim, it is now been 13 years since Skyrim with no end in sight. This company has tremendously letdown their audience, and no one should even be talking about them anymore. Anyone who is in middle school playing that game is now out of college and in the workforce probably with the family lol
You want to know why, listen I tell secret. ITS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE STILL BUYING SKYRIM!!!!!! Ok, actually its little more complicated. 1. Bethesda knows the expectations 2. Bethesda doubts that they can deliver 3. Elder Scrolls Online/Fallout 76 are MASSIVELY MORE PROFITABLE than basically any single player game they could make. 4. Fallout Shelter was a massive success (at least as far as RIO) There is no longer any incentive to make Elder Scrolls, they can't win, expectations are way too high. If the Elder Scrolls 6 is anything less than THE GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME, they are done, ES6 is their last chance. They have burned all their good will. The future of Bethesda hinges on this game. Microsoft is bankrolling this now, they own BGS, do you really think after Starfield they will suffer another failure. BGS will be shut down if ES6 isn't AMAZING, and to be clear that means sells a shitload of copies and makes a ton of money, not AMAZING as in its a good game, Microsoft doesn't give a shit about that part.
Es6 is unfortunately that game everyone thinks they want until they get it. Honestly I don't think it's going to be able to even hold a candle to Skyrim nor Oblivion. The writing is almost guaranteed to be veilguard levels of bad. The art and rest of the game will suffer because of it. I don't think the engine gripes will be a thing here like they were in Starfield, as this (elder scrolls) is the kind of game CE is made for anyway. But overall, I think this going to be a very disappointing game on most fronts. Look; i really, really, really hope I'm 1000% wrong but I think most of us seen enough from the Studio recently and know better at this point. I say buy that Bethesda merch now because after es6 is released, Bethesda Game Studios at least , might just get shutdown by Microsoft.
From what I understand, they didn't want to just be the studio that alternates between TES and Fallout because it becomes creatively limiting and the games can quickly become turgid and samey. I know many will say that all their projects since F4 have been terrible but I'd argue that F76 actually was nowhere near as bad as people complained about, even in the beginning, and Starfield is a new IP that as well as needing to find itself also struggled with its extreme scale. How do you fill a galaxy like that with enough content that it doesn't begin to feel empty? From a technical perspective, there was little inherently wrong with Starfield.
thats the issue I have...ESO players will still continue to enjoy and play that game. The elderscrolls 6 needs to happen, the game play is entirely different.
Counterpoint: MMO players are a different subset of players than Skyrim/ES6. Multiplayer online games and single player RPG are completely different games.
I wonder if the setting for the next game will be in the borderlands between High Rock and Hammerfell, like Daggerfall. I feel that Bethesda want to explore a new biome (deserts) but feel that a move towards the Middle-Eastern/African setting would be too alienating for fans of Skyrim and Oblivion who have come to associate Elder Scrolls with a Medieval European aesthetic. A game set between the two realms would kind of solve this problem, while also being a 'nostalgic blast' for anyone who played Daggerfall nearly 30 years ago. Perhaps a 2026 release (highly unlikely) would serve as a type of anniversary reference too.
Bethesda feels like a studio that would benefit from having games released more fast from having different teams for each IP because their games sure feel like it is consistently made with quantity over quality in mind. There's no way Starfield should've taken 5-6 years with the way the content is snore inducing
i can see whats gonna happen a mile away. its already been basically confirmed that they're gonna be using the creation engine for tesvi. which means 2 things: lots of glitches, and lots of loading screens. before starfield i dont even remember the last single player game i played with a loading screen. red dead didnt have them, final fantasy 7 rebirth didnt have them, cyberpunk didnt have them (they had elevators but it didnt disrupt the gameplay or pull you out of your immersion is my point) and no mans sky didnt even have them and that game came out in 2016. they should take a note from CDPR and just switch to unreal. every studio wants to be rockstar with their own version of the RAGE engine. and RAGE is probably around as old as the creation engine (originally AGE and gamebryo), give or take. i think even a little older. but bethesda with the release of starfield has clearly made zero effort to be competitive and evolve this engine into the modern era like rockstar has. they're like a stubborn child and wont learn their lesson until they get hurt. and their cash cow drops dead because they got fat and complacent. assuming tesvi will have a handcrafted world, it likely wont fall into ALL the same pitfalls as starfield since im assuming it would need to drop the completely random world generation. so hopefully exploration wont feel as gutted and boring. but what i assume we can expect is just skyrim with starfield's higher fidelity and all the same bugs from 2011. if its running on the same engine, we can expect the same story. they need a cyberpunk level failure at launch before they change anything they do
At this point... idk if im even excited for it. Used to be a huge Bethesda fan, but they don't seem to be learning any lessons from their mistakes. Not convinced anymore that ES6 will be great enough to warrant just a huge delay.
My guess is that the company is already making lots of money from ESO and the creation club content for Skyrim. They problem don't want ES6 to interfere with that. Otherwise, this game would probably be out by now.
Starfield gives me a lot of hope for ESVI, but I am concerned it won’t release before I die. Having said that, it’s my generation that loved Skyrim, and we weren’t instant haters who needed badly to use video games to jerk off, hated on anything that disagreed with our politics, and LIVED online consistently waiting to eviscerate every new release a day after it came out. We laughed at the jank, modded to our tastes and pretty much played games for fun. Whatever BSG does with ESVI the incels and basement-dwellers are going to trash it. Millions and millions of us will buy it, and I’ll ignore the “review content” on YT, so bring it, but brace yourself for the halfwits. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I lost faith in Bethesda since fallout 4 released and after there latest release starslop i don't care anymore. Witcher 4 is what I'm waiting for i just hope it's not dei infected
At this point they should give us a Skyrim 2 or re release it yet again and give us 4 new expansion like the dawn guard and dragon born dlc but this time make the game with the updated engine since it’s the best game the arguably have released until we get the next main line like a elder scrolls 5.5 or something
Imagine an elder scrolls/fallout that actually played and looked like the eso/fallout cinematics. Your character navigates thru the world like faith from mirrors edge walking and running uses the same stick... There is no run button. Fights like faith/kyle from dying light 2 im speaking about lots of animations... remember the street fighter v winner scenes? where ryu/ken/sagat/balrog attacks the screen fights would be like that. Cyberpunk 2077 character customization Modular armor like armorsmith i want to wear whatever i want to wear i hate the one piece outfit fits all idea. I could go on and on like adding everything from the sims games u know needs gotta eat gotta sleep But could u imagine scaling a watchtower and leaping from it to stab a dragon in the brain mid air and ride it to the ground absorbing its soul on impact and walking off.... 🤣 Like the elf chick from the eso cinematics?
Because starfield was a failure and bethesda is having sum issues right now...and they know they don't have the engine right now to make the game we want....Elder scroll are a part of me....And I rather wait another 10 yrs then having a bad elder scroll 6 this year. I just hope bethesda make a big come back.
That’s like saying a drug dealer can’t make more money cuz he’s selling more crack than heroine lol that don’t make sense, just cuz a company has more than 1 product, it doesn’t mean they will lose money. Your comment makes no sense bro.

ESO is a pretty good mmo tho, I hate that Bethesda puts so many resources into it but I enjoy it
honestly i don't think ES6 will come out, instead what we have to look forward to is mods such as skyblivion and skywind, these are sort of recreations of the beloved older elder scrolls game in skyrim's engine and mechanics, these mods have been worked on for over a decade now, skyblivion is going to come out for the full release to the public in 2025 just around the corner here, so we at least have that to play this next year.
the thing is i don't think it's smart to even look forward to what bethesda is planning, the modders often make better products for free while using Bethesda's very engine to make these creations, i mean have you heard of fallout London?
that project released only a few months ago and it's getting regular updates daily and a lot of ppl are loving it, it seems to have better writing than bethesda does in their games lately, so again, it's the modders we look to for new gaming experiences, because these days bethesda doesn't seem to be able to get to the level that modders often reach in their own gaming engine, it's likely why bethesda tries so hard to get the modders on their side because they know they are more often than not beat by the modders of their own games.

They have protracted Skyrim's success to the point that It's been like 13 years since we got a new game. Even they said they will never be able to fulfill the expectations that we rightfully demand and maybe it's better if we'll never get an TESVI. There are so many things they could fuck up such as:
Lore
Art style
Gameplay
Character design
Roleplay elements
Immersion elements
I'm worried, because I love this series, perhaps it's my favourite fantasy series of all time.
I miss the elder scrolls.
Bethesda is very important to me and its sad to see what theyve become. I really hope they can figure it out.
I have no idea why they even gave us the teaser in 2018. Years have already gone by since then 😭
I mean, as soon as Starfield was released ES6 went into production, so at least the process has started.
We got the teaser trailer for ES6 years before Starfield came out.
@acetrainer5564 yeah, you're taking that out of context. Bethesda fans are obnoxious. That was them saying "STFU we'll get to it".
@@acetrainer5564that’s when pre development started.
cope above me lmao
If its going to be anything like starfield maybe its best they dont, even the modders didnt want to try and fix starfield
Awesome video brother!
did you just assume their gender?
Man's sounds like Johnny Bravo 👏 good video on all reasons why we did not get ES6 l..
Im just gnna wait for elder scrolls 7
-They have no idea where to go with the story.
-Most of the previous characters before the Dragonborn weren’t power fantasies
Yeah......the mod community got tired of waiting around oblivion is coming to Skyrim next year. Like the whole game , it's gonna be a similar build to the tale of two wastelands mod for fallout 3 and Vegas.
im sad that ES6 will most likely be like Starfield :(
I don’t want the next one to look ultra real. That’s all I ask. Something similar but better to Skyrim. Same story but continued
I don't even want it until Bethesda changes DRASTICALLY. They need a change in management, to stop using the creation engine & to take a much different approach in their game design. Bethesda has been making the same game with a different coat of paint since oblivion and its just not good enough for people anymore.
I disagree with the take on Bethesda making the same game over and over again. Their game design was never the problem because games like Skyrim, Oblivion and Morrwoind, still hold up while Starfield aged in week. The problem is that they keep stripping away what makes their game design good in favor of some experiment and it kept getting worse with each game on top of just in general regressing their game design. With Fallout 4 they experimented with a voiced protagonist which messed up the dialogue system and made roleplaying harder. With Fallout 76 they tried to do multiplayer for an engine that couldn't handle it and resulted in one of the most infamous and buggy releases in gaming. Now with Starfield they took out meaningful exploration and decided to make a new boring IP that nobody is interested in. If they had simply taken the feedback they got from Fallout 4 and focused on making Fallout 5 and ES6 an improvement from Skyrim and Fallout 4, they wouldn't be in the mess that they are in or at the very least, they wouldn't be a complete joke now.
Literally your problem

I'm to the point where all I'm actually hoping for is that they released the IP to a decent studio.
It's taking so long because Bethesda needs another big fantasy movie or tv show to ride the coattails of. Oblivion had Lord of the Rings, Skyrim had Game of Thrones...hell, a lot of things in Morrowind were approved because Todd could be convinced it was copying Star Wars' homework.
Now that Hollywood is just recycling old ideas, Bethesda has nothing to go off of.
There's a huge difference between Blizzard+ Bethesda and Square Enix in multiple ways.
Bethesda is split into 3 companies (Bethesda/Bethesda softworks publisher/Zenimax), Blizzard merged with Activision and is now owned by Microsoft, so oops, running under another 2 companies like Bethesda is.
Square Enix is still able to churn out Final Fantasy games and other games, while MS has to buyout game IP's rather than making their own (it's been years since Fable, years since the last Gears of War, years since nearly anything from them that wasn't utter trash). Blizzard is doing the same thing as well (Starcraft, Heroes of the Storm, Warcraft RTS, etc).
Just having an MMO doesn't mean all games are stifled to hell, it just means the company is too big/ doesn't care to do anything else due to risk aversion (which is why MS just buys what works and then messes it up spectacularly).
Bethesda doesn't have the rights to tell Zenimax what to do, because Zenimax is the parent company and on top of that parent company is MS, so ESO cannot just be "shut down" to get ES VI to come out any faster, that's not how this works.
If anything, it's not the "golden goose", because I see plenty of companies out there with their respective golden gooses and they still manage to churn out games. The only ones who have golden gooses and aren't churning out games are the bigger studios or bigger publishers who have so much money, they feel no need to do anything (T2, who owns R*, who makes GTA, MS who owns Bethesda/Zenimax/Blizzard/Activision, Epic who owns Fortnite, that also owns Unreal Engine, one of the most used engines on the planet).
ESO doesn't need to be shut down to get a new ES game, let alone faster. It's the creation engine that needs to go, and Zenimax needs to stop being the parent company, and MS needs to be broken up like Google will be, so the pressure can then be put back onto those respective studios and publishers (take a lot of what MS owns currently and split it up, and watch them having to work much, much harder to get anything done).
There's a certain point where longer game development duration goes from eliciting optimism, due to a perception that the game will be more polished, to pessimism due to the likelihood that major issues at the studio are the cause.
We are well past that threshold for ES6.
My ball zack is gonna burst the day it gets a release date
Good video brother but please upload in at least 1080p
This is a well done video
Fun fact that I like bringing up. There is a bigger gap between Skyrim and ES6 than there is between Morrowind and Fallout 4. If the Elder Scrolls 6 comes out in 2026, which is fairly likely, there would be as big of a gap as the one between Daggerfall and Skyrim. I just want a picture of a tree or something at this point.
Hell it’s not coming out until 2027 at least
@@sherrybadertut7025 Well then we'd be getting pretty close to the gap between Arena and Skyrim which would be hilarious to think about
If I remember correctly if we use the same development time they needed for Starfield, Fallout 4 & 76 and Elder Scrolls 5 they will need roughly 5-6 years starting from the release of their latest game, which would 2023s Starfield. So yeah more likely going to be 2028-29. This also matches the Statement of Phil Spencer who in 2023 said that TES6 is still roughly 5 years away. This would be a 17 to 18 year gap between Skyrim and TES6, which is the same amount as between TES: Arena and Skyrim.
Obsidian wanted to make a spin-off game in the Elder Scrolls universe, Bethesda rejected the proposal. This event is evidence to support your theory. Uninterrupted cash flow with TES Online above all else!
At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if we got Elder Scrolls 7 before we got Elder Scrolls 6 😭
I just hope i will still be around when its actually out.
Happy 13th! Yeeeehaaaw!
What I think is that maybe Star Field was just a warmup for the team to learn about the new creation engine, and the Elder scrolls 6 will be the main goal...hopefully
Deep inside me I still have the small hope that they'll pull it out. Starfield is not that bad for the first time they're trying such ideas... On the other hand, imagine a hand-crafted world and it's not gonna be about exploring hundreds of empty planets.
They must get it right. Perhaps that's just me trying not to lose hope though
@@elkevinski Yes it is that bad. Starfield shows 2 things.
1. That Bethesda does not understand what makes their games great. They focused all their effort and resources in the completely wrong direction. Most people knew Starfield was going to be mediocre at best the moment they announced 1000 star systems. There is just no possible way to make that into an engaging and meaningful game experience.
2. The DLC showed that even if they try to recapture that magic and make a classic Bethesda style focused experience, they are just not capable anymore.
Obviously.
This has literally been said 😂
@@Xalantorbro you have no idea what you’re taking about.
Starfield doesn’t have anywhere near to 1000 systems.
@@TheParagonIsDead where has that been said?
I almost think that they should have outsourced production on ES6, which makes me wonder where are their profits going? I would think between the success of ESO and all the various releases of ES5, they would be able to expand and have a second team of developers...
I just hope and pray that when it does come out, it isn't any woke nonsense and they make a wide world with depth and an actual intriguing story and characters with fun quests.
Please Bethesda just make a good game when it come out 🙏
I was never one of these people who were hyper-addicted to skyrim. Beat it once and then fucked around dor a few ours a couple of different times. Loved the game but my bar is pretty low, genuinely only want skyrim with a couple new features and upgrades. Its gonna be hard to disappoint with the new release
oblivion and morrowind are better. if you playd those you were hyped, then dissapointed with skyrim. lol.
@ yea tbf i loved oblivion much more than skyrim haha morrowinds beginning is by far my favorite out of all of them atmosphere wise
mrs viking im your number one fan🤭
After seeing Starfield, I don't really know if I care about Elder Scrolls 6. But Oblivion is on its way, and I've never played oblivion.
Me: Mom, I want elder scrolls 6!
Her: we have elder scrolls 6 at home
Me: but it's the dollar tree version
😢😢😢😢😢
Fortunately for me, I'm still playing Skyrim now.
At this point I would be happy with good remasters of the old games. I don't want the actual Bethesda to trying anything new for a while
my most anticipated game of all time. people are saying it will be bad because starfield was bad but starfield was bethesda trying something new. as long as we have ONE planet and obviously they know what they’re doing with TES i think we’ll be fine. It’s like saying someone isn’t good at playing the guitar but instead of telling them to get better, you say to them: “Well you were bad at the guitar so you will ALWAYS be bad at the guitar, don’t bother trying to improve.” The fanbase is indirectly telling Bethesda to give up 💀
I fwu lookin at the issue the way you do, i'm very eager for the 6th entry
Don't get your hopes up, it will be garbage.
Skyrim was a very mediocore game with no depth. Weak story weak combat shit RPG elements. Mods and nostalgia only high points.
Check out the Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon that looks and feels like it has a soul and Passion behind it
"Trying something new" wasn't the problem with Starfield. Items were bad, quests were bad and illogical, no meaningful consequences for anything, completely useless base building. These didn't have to be this way. Nothing new in Starfield forced the quest designers to produce crap. It all goa back to how Bethesda is managed. As long as Todd Howard and his incompetent cronies like Emil "I don't care about the story" Pagliaruo as lead writer are still in charge TES6 will end up just as terrible as Starfield. What Starfield showed however is that current Bethesda is incapable of making a compelling game and that a big part of the compelling nature of fallout and elder scrolls was other people's design and lore work.
@ yeah fair point
I remember when they added the loot boxes 😭and removed all the good mounts from the store
7:24 This KILLED ME!! XD
I had to sub after that 😂That made me genuinely laugh out loud
My friend said to me in the 7th grade we'd never see another elder scrolls release after eso came out and its been 8 years now im starting ti think Jason was right
“cuz they’re still making it.”
Oh, come on. Face it - there will be no Elder Scrolls VI.
Bethesda have so far found much easier ways to make money. ESO is an MMO which brings money constantly through subscriptions. Fallout 76 is an MMO which brings back money through subscriptions, cash shop, and so on. These "products" were dirt cheap compared to Skyrim or Fallout 4, made by "B" teams without the need of any innovation.
Starfield was a feeble try to make a Fallout-alike, in space, so there is no immediate comparison. It was a flop, but it can get another couple of years for Bethesda to do exactly nothing.
Then? Todd probably retires rich and famous, the rest of the company - not much is left - is dishonorably disbanded by MS.
Yep, too bad they refuse to sell the title to a more capable studio. I'm sure Obsidian in 13 years since 2011 could've cooked a masterpiece
fallout 76 is not really a conventional MMO, like eso
@2138Dude but just like Bungie, most of Obsidians original masters are gone. Ship of Theseus has happened to so many developers.
I just hope the NPCs actually feel natural unlike Starfield
ES6 will be a conglomeration of DEI, Emil’s tremendous writing, piss poor optimization, a push for creations, horrible mainline and side quests that will still look 10 times worse than a fully modded Skyrim
Hope you’re ready 😂
To repeat what someone else said in another video:
"Bethesda is bad, but at least their bad doesn't come from pushing DEI agenda"
@@mn7306 We'll see once it's released. Current hopium is Bethesda's claim they are worried they wont meet diehard fans expectations isn't just code for "we are infiltrated".
Remaster morrowind it’s already written just needs to be reworked, loads of people haven’t played it
I kind of see the ESO curse as a potentially good thing. If ESO is making steady money. It doesn’t put as much pressure on the development of ES6 (clearly). But often we see games come out being shells of what they could have been because of time constraints and investors/publishers wanting their money asap
Yeah, but that also means the single-player games become a side objective to them. Basically, putting their other projects on the side burner, none of the people working on it, will be passionate about it. Because all that effort goes to ESO and 76. The game ends up horrible, just like Starfield.
Bro blinked
While I enjoyed some aspects of starfield I’m mainly pissed that starfield was the reason we haven’t gotten an elder scrolls 6. Maybe it’s for the best starfield struggled and got well deserved criticism that I hope will influence Bethesda going forward.
What is the profit on the 2 billion gross for an MMO?
If they want to milk skyrim and eso, they just need to open up the ip. Star Wars games flatlined, thanks to EA's death grip on it. It got revived, albeit distastefully, but it did. I would love to see CD Projekt Red take the reigns on ES6
I was hopping when Oblivion came out each DLC would be another province, They could still done that with Skyrim too so we would in the end have the whole of Tamriel to adventure in. I watched a video not long back in which a Guy stated to a point true, the Tech advance's from Morrowind to Oblivion to Skyrim where leaps and bounds, but have slowed quite a lot in resent years, SO Beth could in fact make a base Elder Scrolls world and put out a year or two later a game sized DLC that built on that expanding that world and another a couple of years after and so on and still make great money based on the same tech and still be bloody awesome and maybe even return modding back to what it was back in the Morrowind, Oblivion days, a way for young up comers tp learn 3D skills for free and get known. sadly by the time we get the next game I'll maybe be to ole to play it and even Gopher will to too ole for me to watch rofl
After SO many big-budget movies, shows and games have BOMBED these last couple years.. I think studios are starting to become gun shy. It's simply safer to delay, delay, delay (and keep your job another year or two!)
Because its possible the devs have been plotting there new devious methods on how they might "appeal" the needs of console mod advancements and there players for TES V...
Eventually we all just will stop to expect the game, like happened with hl3...
And they’re using basically the same engine it’s gonna be a buggy starfield mess, we’ll never get another masterpiece like Skyrim again
I believe it was three years from Morrow to oblivion and then four years from oblivion to Skyrim, it is now been 13 years since Skyrim with no end in sight. This company has tremendously letdown their audience, and no one should even be talking about them anymore. Anyone who is in middle school playing that game is now out of college and in the workforce probably with the family lol
You want to know why, listen I tell secret. ITS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE STILL BUYING SKYRIM!!!!!!
Ok, actually its little more complicated.
1. Bethesda knows the expectations
2. Bethesda doubts that they can deliver
3. Elder Scrolls Online/Fallout 76 are MASSIVELY MORE PROFITABLE than basically any single player game they could make.
4. Fallout Shelter was a massive success (at least as far as RIO)
There is no longer any incentive to make Elder Scrolls, they can't win, expectations are way too high. If the Elder Scrolls 6 is anything less than THE GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME, they are done, ES6 is their last chance. They have burned all their good will. The future of Bethesda hinges on this game. Microsoft is bankrolling this now, they own BGS, do you really think after Starfield they will suffer another failure. BGS will be shut down if ES6 isn't AMAZING, and to be clear that means sells a shitload of copies and makes a ton of money, not AMAZING as in its a good game, Microsoft doesn't give a shit about that part.
Es6 is unfortunately that game everyone thinks they want until they get it.
Honestly I don't think it's going to be able to even hold a candle to Skyrim nor Oblivion. The writing is almost guaranteed to be veilguard levels of bad. The art and rest of the game will suffer because of it.
I don't think the engine gripes will be a thing here like they were in Starfield, as this (elder scrolls) is the kind of game CE is made for anyway.
But overall, I think this going to be a very disappointing game on most fronts.
Look; i really, really, really hope I'm 1000% wrong but I think most of us seen enough from the Studio recently and know better at this point.
I say buy that Bethesda merch now because after es6 is released, Bethesda Game Studios at least , might just get shutdown by Microsoft.
From what I understand, they didn't want to just be the studio that alternates between TES and Fallout because it becomes creatively limiting and the games can quickly become turgid and samey.
I know many will say that all their projects since F4 have been terrible but I'd argue that F76 actually was nowhere near as bad as people complained about, even in the beginning, and Starfield is a new IP that as well as needing to find itself also struggled with its extreme scale. How do you fill a galaxy like that with enough content that it doesn't begin to feel empty? From a technical perspective, there was little inherently wrong with Starfield.
thats the issue I have...ESO players will still continue to enjoy and play that game. The elderscrolls 6 needs to happen, the game play is entirely different.
We need to stop buying new re-releases of Skyrim and boycott ESO until we get Elder Scrolls VI
We’ve gotten 2 presidents in a half since they release that trailer
Counterpoint: MMO players are a different subset of players than Skyrim/ES6. Multiplayer online games and single player RPG are completely different games.
I wonder if the setting for the next game will be in the borderlands between High Rock and Hammerfell, like Daggerfall.
I feel that Bethesda want to explore a new biome (deserts) but feel that a move towards the Middle-Eastern/African setting would be too alienating for fans of Skyrim and Oblivion who have come to associate Elder Scrolls with a Medieval European aesthetic.
A game set between the two realms would kind of solve this problem, while also being a 'nostalgic blast' for anyone who played Daggerfall nearly 30 years ago. Perhaps a 2026 release (highly unlikely) would serve as a type of anniversary reference too.
Anyone that associates the elder scrolls with classic medieval aesthetic is not a real fan. The lore and world is so much more than that.
They keep releasing everything except what we want. All these b-roll games and skyrim re-releases can only get so far.
Bethesda feels like a studio that would benefit from having games released more fast from having different teams for each IP because their games sure feel like it is consistently made with quantity over quality in mind. There's no way Starfield should've taken 5-6 years with the way the content is snore inducing
i can see whats gonna happen a mile away. its already been basically confirmed that they're gonna be using the creation engine for tesvi. which means 2 things: lots of glitches, and lots of loading screens. before starfield i dont even remember the last single player game i played with a loading screen. red dead didnt have them, final fantasy 7 rebirth didnt have them, cyberpunk didnt have them (they had elevators but it didnt disrupt the gameplay or pull you out of your immersion is my point) and no mans sky didnt even have them and that game came out in 2016.
they should take a note from CDPR and just switch to unreal. every studio wants to be rockstar with their own version of the RAGE engine. and RAGE is probably around as old as the creation engine (originally AGE and gamebryo), give or take. i think even a little older. but bethesda with the release of starfield has clearly made zero effort to be competitive and evolve this engine into the modern era like rockstar has. they're like a stubborn child and wont learn their lesson until they get hurt. and their cash cow drops dead because they got fat and complacent.
assuming tesvi will have a handcrafted world, it likely wont fall into ALL the same pitfalls as starfield since im assuming it would need to drop the completely random world generation. so hopefully exploration wont feel as gutted and boring. but what i assume we can expect is just skyrim with starfield's higher fidelity and all the same bugs from 2011. if its running on the same engine, we can expect the same story. they need a cyberpunk level failure at launch before they change anything they do
At this point... idk if im even excited for it. Used to be a huge Bethesda fan, but they don't seem to be learning any lessons from their mistakes. Not convinced anymore that ES6 will be great enough to warrant just a huge delay.
I dont think were gonna get it... I dont think Tod has it in him...
These corporations know that these two games are going to make a lot of money
Morrowind is still the best elder scrolls.
Oblivion>Morrowind>Skyrim
@@keiremuoblivion lmfao 😂😂😂😂😂
My guess is that the company is already making lots of money from ESO and the creation club content for Skyrim. They problem don't want ES6 to interfere with that. Otherwise, this game would probably be out by now.
Starfield gives me a lot of hope for ESVI, but I am concerned it won’t release before I die.
Having said that, it’s my generation that loved Skyrim, and we weren’t instant haters who needed badly to use video games to jerk off, hated on anything that disagreed with our politics, and LIVED online consistently waiting to eviscerate every new release a day after it came out. We laughed at the jank, modded to our tastes and pretty much played games for fun.
Whatever BSG does with ESVI the incels and basement-dwellers are going to trash it. Millions and millions of us will buy it, and I’ll ignore the “review content” on YT, so bring it, but brace yourself for the halfwits. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
There's only one reason we haven't gotten ES6 ...Bethesda.
why would you want it after seeing starfield
I lost faith in Bethesda since fallout 4 released and after there latest release starslop i don't care anymore. Witcher 4 is what I'm waiting for i just hope it's not dei infected
Online ruined everything. GTA,Warcraft and Elder Scrolls. Fallout too.
At this point they should give us a Skyrim 2 or re release it yet again and give us 4 new expansion like the dawn guard and dragon born dlc but this time make the game with the updated engine since it’s the best game the arguably have released until we get the next main line like a elder scrolls 5.5 or something
Elder Scrolls 6 feels a bit like starting to feel like Star Citizen:)
Imagine an elder scrolls/fallout that actually played and looked like the eso/fallout cinematics.
Your character navigates thru the world like faith from mirrors edge walking and running uses the same stick... There is no run button.
Fights like faith/kyle from dying light 2 im speaking about lots of animations... remember the street fighter v winner scenes? where ryu/ken/sagat/balrog attacks the screen fights would be like that.
Cyberpunk 2077 character customization
Modular armor like armorsmith i want to wear whatever i want to wear i hate the one piece outfit fits all idea.
I could go on and on like adding everything from the sims games u know needs gotta eat gotta sleep
But could u imagine scaling a watchtower and leaping from it to stab a dragon in the brain mid air and ride it to the ground absorbing its soul on impact and walking off.... 🤣 Like the elf chick from the eso cinematics?
Feel ES fatigue may set in, unless they take it to Akavir or something........but of course ppl will buy it.
Because starfield was a failure and bethesda is having sum issues right now...and they know they don't have the engine right now to make the game we want....Elder scroll are a part of me....And I rather wait another 10 yrs then having a bad elder scroll 6 this year. I just hope bethesda make a big come back.
Think I'll be giving the Gender scrolls a miss. Skyrim was peak Bethesda, peak gaming even.
fun fact The Elder Scrolls 6 sub title wont be Hammerfell it will actually be call The Elder Scrolls VI Redfall
What's astounishing is when an entire gaming community want next elder scrolls.
but they lauched starfield.
why not just give what players want
That's the unpopular truth - ES6 release would eat away from the cash machine that's ESO. They see a single player ES game as a threat to ESO.
That’s like saying a drug dealer can’t make more money cuz he’s selling more crack than heroine lol that don’t make sense, just cuz a company has more than 1 product, it doesn’t mean they will lose money. Your comment makes no sense bro.
Morrowind was stellar. We should accept MS bought Beth and shit will be shit .... ie Starfeild
