Is it still the same lead writer that was responsible for Fallout 4 and starfield or has he finally been fired?
Edit: it is. How has that man not been fired? Its obvious he costs them so much money
The Elder Scrolls: 15 minute city
Hyping the scale? Should I assume it's about half the size of Skyrim then?
it's going to be either the size of Solstheim from Skyrim and there's a dude every 2 yards yelling at you to do their quest (randomly generated ofc) or it's going to be half the size of Skyrim and there's a hub every 50 yards that dispenses quests (randomly generated ofc)
Half the size of Skyrim with quests that get you to go from on side of the map to the other, repeatedly, to give you a proper view of the absolute emptiness between the five houses clusters they call cities. All designed and modeled by AI.
You're hired!
I'm hoping for Elder Scrolls 6: Pussy Riot! All about the Khajit rebelling and taking over.
This game is gonna be terrible. It's made by Bethesda ffs
If they ditched Todd and Emil completely and brought over the writers from ESO they'd have a chance, provided they poached some competent quest designers from another studio. Todd's apparently been sidelined post-Starfield but AFAIK Emil is still their lead writer and he's been as responsible as Todd for the sorry state of Bethesda's writing and worldbuilding.
If not more so. Emil writes marvel brained slop like none other.
Put some respect on the name of Nate the Rake
And he's gotten worse at it over the years. Like he ostensibly wrote the Tenpenny Tower storyline/quest for FO3, and then rehashed it in Starfield except worse because the literal only options there were siding with a CEO who wanted you to either commit genocide, convince an entire people to become his slaves, or give his mass murdering oligarch buddy a huge commission to let the generation ship leave without murdering or enslaving them. Whereas with Tenpenny Tower you could just kill Tenpenny on the spot, all the corporate freaks on that planet are invincible and the quest literally cannot even be failed, it can only resolve by you doing what they want.
Like FO3 was bad and railroady in bad ways (with its forced loss in a cutscene and nonsensical original ending), but Starfield is even worse in all of those ways and I can't help but see it as Emil getting increasing creative control and driving away everyone with actual talent.
Brought to you by the guys responsible for Fallout 4, Fallout 76, and Starfield.
Yeah, Bethesda's dead. There are like 3 people left from when they actually made good games and those are the ones least responsible for those games being good
Also all the recent interviews with former devs have revealed that they are by and large fucking delusional
Writers as well. One of the longtime writers for the TES series (Daggerfall till Oblivion) was laid off and was given what was essentially a cameo for Skyrim (I believe he was credited for a couple of the in game books to do with past events in the lore). He appears to be completely uninvolved in 6.
Kirkbride?
Kirkbride wasn't on Daggerfall so either he's misremembering or he means Ted Peterson who wrote for all of them besides Skyrim
two of the guild quests will be good
I wonder if Bethesda games are going to suffer from the same thing as Final Fantasy, where all the fans are in their 30s and 40s because it takes so fucking long for the next game to come out now that young people aren't becoming fans. Add on the issue that each game they release is worse than the last and it doesn't bode well for long-term prospects.
Then again people love their open world slop, so perhaps it'll work.
Bethesda games or more accurately TES and Fallout aren't on the level of Rockstar games, COD or sports games but since Oblivion/Fallout 3 they've been up there on the list of "4 games a non-gamer normie dad gets for his PlayStation/Xbox" where Final Fantasy has never been on that level of mass appeal in the West. It's just too niche, too anime and too Japanese which is why they tried making the newest one all dark and gritty
i think the tweens that aren't locked in on roblox and fortnite still play skyrim.
it's not fuckings until the modders get to work
(actually i don't remember if they ported their shit to FO4 and Shitfield or not)
(actually i don't remember if they ported their shit to FO4 and Shitfield or not)
FO4 yes, Starfield idk.
that’s the number of characters in the string “Skyrim 2”
TES6: Hunter2
Elder Scrolls 6: Fuckrim
You’re one character short still
Fuckings
ty for editing
Bullshit (8 letters)
I guess that could work if you shorten it a bit, but “Bullshit (8 letters)” is 20 characters, which is 12 too many.
