The Elder Scrolls VI doesn’t need any bells and whistles to be amazing.Ī similar lesson can be seen in Rockstar’s transition from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas to GTA IV. If we think of the two most recent Fallout games as experiments, then Bethesda has likely learned that players aren’t looking for new features, they’re looking to see old features refined. These additions to the Creation Engine detracted from the rich storylines and immersive worlds that made games like Fallout 3 and Skyrim great. What wasn’t so reliable, or well-received by fans, was Fallout 4’s voiced player characters and Fallout 76’s base building and multiplayer.
This reliable engine has proven to be a great canvas for the developer’s storytelling. That’s due largely in part to the franchise’s dependence on the Creation Engine, Bethesda’s go-to since Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind in 2002. So let’s dial back our expectations a bit.ĭespite its trespasses, Fallout 4 is essentially a beautified Fallout 3. All we have right now is an announcement trailer and some behind-the-scenes footage of the new animation system being used to make The Elder Scrolls VI look as incredible as Skyrim did back in 2011. The map could be ten times as large as Skyrim’s! We have absolutely no idea.
The game could have cooperative multiplayer or player-versus-player invasions like Dark Souls.

Todd Howard isn't in any rush to leave 'Skyrim' in the rearview. It lets us know going into Elder Scrolls VI that this is a game we need to design for people to play for a decade at least,” Howard said. And they love it, they still play it, it’s almost infinitely playable, all of the mods and everything like that. “Anything we put on, it becomes a hit game. During an interview with IGN, Elder Scrolls and Fallout creator Todd Howard hinted that Skyrim’s success is one of the reasons Elder Scrolls: VI is taking so long. It’s also because Bethesda realized it could reap the rewards of Skyrim for a really long time. That silence has been partly due to projects like The Elder Scrolls Online and the upcoming Starfield. After nearly a decade of silence, fans have been left with a ton of speculation and an over-abundance of hype. It wasn’t until E3 2018 that we got an official announcement, and the developers have been tight-lipped ever since. Fans have been praying for news about Bethesda’s next installment of the series since the credits rolled on Skyrim back in 2011. The Elder Scrolls VIis one of the most anticipated games of the decade - and we basically know nothing about it.
