Elder Scrolls 6

Also, how did they manage to keep it a secret till now? Till very recently everybody at Bethesda denied that it's in development, and no leaks passed to the public.

Because it's not in development. "Pre-production" is how they call it, and your man mentioned that it was a first for Bethesda to announce games that early. Most of their recent games took less than a year from reveal to release, but this is at least 2 years away. It's still likely to release before Star Citizen though. [noob]

I'm well aware that it's most likely not going to be out by 2020, or even 2021. However, just knowing that's in on their official development calendar now makes the wait all that more bearable :)
TES by no means are perfect games, but for all their flaws they do one thing exceptionally well - they totally transport you into this amazingly detailed and lore rich world. They may not be best RPGs, but the world building in TES is pitch perfect.
 
Fully agreed. Even years away, there's something comforting in knowing that it's somewhere on their schedule.

All I want is more consequence for your decisions and quests with multiple outcomes again, like Morrorwind had.

Is that to much to ask?
 
Starfield would like a word with you ;-)

Naaah.

I'm very interested in Starfield for sure, but Elder Scrolls is my favorite franchise... ever.

I still play Skyrim today, after 7 years! (with many, many mods). When Oblivion first released, I thought there would never be a grander game :D

I have several thousands of very well-spent hours on that franchise, specially Oblivion and Skyrim (I hate elves, so Morrowind takes the lower step of the podium for me). It takes me almost an entire day, just to build the mod setup every time I start a new playthough.

Even with all the bugs, as a professional immersionologist, there's just nothing like Bethesda's world building. I can spend hours on them, without even doing a single quest.

I just hope Bethesda doesn't dumb down the game any further than they already did with Fallout 4, and to some extent with Skyrim. But as long as they keep creating wonderful, immersive, beautiful worlds, and keep modding available and open for all as in previous games, then I'll happily throw them my money.
 
Judging by new Fallout title, all these new games their new engine (finally). Also for RPGs it is long way to release due of them being simply massive.
 
Is Akavir the pseudo-Japan country they always allude to, thats not on the same continent?

Akavir is another continent. There's not a great deal of info about it, but contact between two continents was made...mainly through invasion of Akavir into Tamriel :) And yes, one of the cultures is pseudo-Japanese. Kind of. Blades originated on Akavir, and they use katana-like swords.
 
While we don't really know anything about the game and its still a long way off I'm just glad they are still doing TES games!

Hopfully they learned there lessons from Fallout 4 tought, was a good game but had some problems holding it back especially the dialogsystem. But also the Building, that was bad, but at least optional. But then again looking at Fallout 76 it seems they looked at building in Fallout 4 and tough "wouldn't it be great to make that a major focus of the next fallout game?" so I'm not sure they are learning the right lessons :p
 
Come on guys you know it's all about getting on the Fortnite gravy train. PUBG will add building next. Beth was halfway there with FO4. It won't take a studio of their calibre long to shove a Fortnite style game mode out for mass coin collecting. Then the ES6 hype.
