TES VI trailer is now 7. Do you still believe in Todd?

Are we just making threads for the sake of engagement numbers. I guess its cool to discuss and remind people.

Their A-team released Starfield in 2023. TES6 trailer was 2018 before Covid.
TES6 is in active development and should be released around 2029.

It doesn't matter. It'll be years before it comes out, and at least 2 more years before I buy it for the modding scene. It's not on my radar in any way.
 
SEVEN? Jesus this is worse than CP2077 reveal. I mean lets be honest when they put that "trailer", it was just some render, they prob didnt even start on the game.
 
Not a big Bethesda or Todd fan.
But to me this announcement always read like: "We are working on other shit right now, but yes, at some point in the future we'll make another TES. Now stop fucking asking".
 
Trailer? What trailer? You mean zoomed out mountains and a name that people got excited for?

I'm assuming after the reception of Star Field, they went back to the drawing board for TES VI. At least that's what I'd hope they'd be doing.
 
The game hasnt been in development for a few years, not until after Starfield launched.

Their 'teaser' was just a way of saying, we know you want this and we are going to work on it.

What else do you need? The game isnt coming for at least another two/three years.

Was the creation of a new Elder Scrolls game ever in doubt? Nobody would let an IP like that die.
 
That first trailer was kind of nothingness garbage, not even sure why they released it

Were they even really working on the game at that time?

It could be that most of the studio was focused on Starfield until recently
 
After Starfield, I don't want an ES6. I'd honestly prefer a brand new ESO over ES6.

When games like BG3, KCD2 and Crimson Desert are doing the things they are in a much shorter period of development, it's obvious that Todd and team have fallen behind.

The only reasons ES3/4/5 were interesting was because there really wasn't anything else in market that was quite like these games. Even something like Oblivion remake shows off how dated the animation, gameplay, and sound design is/was.
 
Starfield sucked ass but at least we will have full ass mods on console by the time their next game sees the light of day.

Nah. Haven't in a long ass time

More milking is what they're good at
Lmao, what are they milking exactly?

The fans always wanted Skyrim new releases on new platforms.

Just like how you see PS fans begging for PS3 ports. They want to play it in their new system.

So what exactly besides skyrim have they 'milked' ???

More Skyrim. You wanna tell me what they're doing is normal all those years? Come on now
 
Didn't he or someone at Bethesda say the only thing they had was the trailer and nothing else? They said they were scared of the backlash of Starfield or something.

Todd is not any more believable than Peter Molyneux
 
the tooth fairy is more believable than anyone like todd or peter. their job is to hype and make sales, not deliver on what they say.
 
Bethesda aren't a 2 game studio, at least they weren't back in 2018. The 5 years post this trailer were spent on Starfield and now they are full production on ES6. I'm not surprised it's taken this long to be honest, the expectations are so sky high that they need to cook this beast for as loooooong as possible.
There is clearly a point where more time doesn't help them, or any studio in general. Starfield is the prime example of that.

Unless you are Rockstar, there is no justification for a dev cycle longer than 4 years.
 
The same Todd Howard who said Starfield was the game he (and Bethesda) always wanted to make and who said that Starfield was made to be played for a long time? Who then went into full damage control mode when the game was a mediocre mess, claiming it took them years to make the game fun?

Do I trust Todd Howard?
LOL, no.
 
Do people ever believed him? I already noted this guy was a snake oil seller when I played Skyrim, which was my first ES game. People vangloriating a broken mess of game are delusional.
 
After all those years and mediocre games between, I'm not interested anymore. I will play skywind if modders can finish it.
 
Are we getting TES VI? Sure, absolutely.

Will it compare to Skyrim, or even just be great? Fuck no, why would you ever think that? How many times do you have to be burned in a row before you understand that all the people who made The Elder Scrolls great are gone or are too old and too few to make a difference?

Best case scenario, it will be just "good".

Never stopped believing.

This, I believe in Todd. That man will deliver Elder Scrolls like nothing before and we have to thank Starfield's failings for it.

There is still nothing like Scrolls with its awesome sand box. Playing the Oblivion remaster had me seeing hours go away like nothing.
 
I haven't played much of starfield but the beginning interested me

I've enjoyed the other games they have put out too so I'm pretty confident it will be good.

I just wait for Skywind at this point. And the Oblivion Remaster gets a new patch tommorrow so i will be playing this.
TES VI is too far away for me to say anything at this point.

That wasn't a trailer. It was barely a teaser. It was made out of desperation while Zenimax was struggling.
 
Tinfoil hat theory: They legitimately thought they struck gold with Starfield, but the overwhelmingly negative reception rocked them to their core and they've been scrambling to course correct ever since.
Considering the state of modern US devs, they probably think it's the gamers and customers who are wrong and didn't get "the greatness".
 
Do not bet against Godd Howard.

AKA It just works

AKA See that thread? You can shitpost on it
 
Elder Scrolls Online: launched as a buggy mess
Fallout 76: launched as a buggy mess, borderline disaster. Players were able to boost to max rank in the first week.
Fallout 4: launched buggy and removed key features that used to be in Fallout, and reduced to character's choices to just four options.
Starfield: ...we all know how that went

Gamers: I can't wait to preorder Elder Scrolls 6.

Game launches....Also, gamers: Why is this game such a buggy mess? I paid 250 for the limited edition that comes with a plastic statue and a steel case, even though they just gave me a download code. Why Todd WWWHHHHYYYYY!!!
