The internet thinks something was missing from Bethesda at E3: the Elder Scrolls 6. Here's why it's a good thing it wasn't announced.
Bethesda will do as Bethesda does, tormenting us with talk of a playable build of TES 6 on the 30-year anniversary of The Elder Scrolls series.
Playable builds is always good to know sounds like they've started full production. Still BR awhile but good to know development is goin smooth.
Whilst Elder Scrolls VI might be good, I speak on behalf of the ENTIRE N4G community when I say we'd much prefer Starfield 2 first.
I won't want a Starfield 2 at all.
Give me ESVI and Fallout 5... on Playstation ofc
ES6 at 30 fps? Not really, thanks. Good thing the industry has evolved since Bethesda was great.

It will probably be a launch game for the next gen Xbox.
Fingers crossed
I lost a lot of enthusiasm for Elder Scrolls VI after playing Starfield. It was interesting, but it was still a massive disappointment for me. Elder Scrolls is different from Starfield in many ways, but I can’t bring myself to trust Bethesda with anything anymore.
yeah i'm definitely going to wait a month after reviews and see what people really think of the game instead of it being day 1.
That one-two combo of Fallout 76 AND Starfield does not give me a lot of hope for the future.
I think it’s because some were hyping Starfield to be this ‘generational’ masterpiece when it just turned out to be an okay/good game.
David Pierce, better known as Chesko in the Skyrim modding community, is now a Senior Designer at Bethesda Game Studios currently working on the upcoming TES 6.
Bethesda's Head of Publishing Pete Hines that The Elder Scrolls VI has already left the pre-production phase and is in 'early development'.
Jesus. So we’ve got such a long wait
Also these guys refuse to let Fallout go, by the time we get Fallout 5 it will be 2030 or something
They need to swallow whatever pride they have and just let Obsidian do it. Microsoft could support Obsidian a lot…I mean they did New Vegas will a shit budget and small time frame and it was probably better than Fallout 3 in places.
Obsidian is already completely busy with Grounded (which did very well and likely may even get a sequel at some point), Avowed, The Outer Worlds 2, and whatever Sawyer is cooking up next (maybe Pillars 3?). This about a Fallout game by Obsidian is currently just a fantasy from the fans.
The point is if they get those games out they can start on it
Another is they should have been given this right after the purchase of Zenimax and put things in motion. Instead they greenlit Outer Worlds 2 but why…we have Starfield now. Do they really need two similar Space RPGs.
Also I couldn’t give a shit about Grounded if it means more Fallout sooner
Obsidian already made the best fallout game in recent times, there's no way Todd's ego would let them potentially make a better ES too.

Definitely gonna have to wait till next gen, possibly cross gen but definitely around that transitional time at the soonest.
Yeah I don't expect to see Elder Scrolls VI for at least a few more years. It will likely be a next gen game.
yeah, I'm not surprised it wasn't revealed, they're still doing a lot with the other Elder Scrolls games. Besides, it's obvious if they are making another that they want it to be just as legendary as Skyrim, and that takes time.
Why do people keep wanting this so early. Do people not know how they operate.
We should really ask for a New Vegas successor to hold us over until Elder Scrolls VI
