Surely they will not try to force a linear narrative into fucking Elder Scrolls, right?

Antifar had made one major error though. He'd ignored the sign that had cautioned him about cruelbuffalos wearing turbams. There was a key in between them.

......ooookay.

Played 4, interested at the start and it died off fast, went back to NV and later 3 and.....I definitely dont feel the way I used to about them.

I liked 4 a lot more than 3, though NV is my favorite of the modern fallouts. And tbf I actually enjoyed building up settlements and playing with designs etc. Definitely a big part of my enjoyment that I understand other people not liking

Probably Elder Scrolls V (while great) was also gutted as far as RPG mechanics go. In making their games more mainstream they have removed things like classes and many choices.

I mean 4 got quite some backlash, despite its commercial success, and Fallout 76 was Fallout 76

Id like to believe theyll try to regain some good will with TES VI

i know they wont

Hear me out here.....give us Fable style multiplayer, where instead of two Neravarine or Dragonborn or whatever, one player just takes control of a follower or mercenary. Could gear em up without weird lore breaking double daedric artifacts happening.

Or do it KIRBY SUPERSTAR style and just have P2 sit out and hop in whenever P1 uses summoning magic.

FO4 looks so goddamn bland

Like I get that they wanted to not make another green game, great, awesome, love it. They went too far in the other direction however, and delivered this boring ass nothing sandbox.

If there's settlement building I'm not fucking buying it


Not only will there be settlement building, but I bet it has the weird timer mechanic that blades has where it forces you to wait a certain number of hours for settlements to be built or upgraded.

This is the same company that made an entire game (FO76) out of the scrapped attempt at adding multiplayer to one of their other titles. There is no way they create that mechanic for their mobile game and then not use the code again.

They'll make it a buggy mess designed around getting you to buy microtransactions to speed up level grind. There will be a fully built lush beautiful area that is locked off for dlc

You either make a proper rpg which takes away the mass appeal or you make a simplified action/adventure that pretends to be an rpg which brings in the dollar.

Guess which one they'll pick?

Today's industry is profit over artistic vision.

they always put their best areas in dlc since dlc became a thing.

Oblivion had shivering isles
Fo3 had point lookout
FO4 had far harbor

Imagine if the TES modding community actually said "enough is enough" and just... didn't make mods for it.

The problem is, the way theyre heading, you cant just mod it into a better game. FO4 speech system is what it is, no mods are gonna fix that.

I sure do hope that three quarters of all the weapons in the game are generic garbage iron weapons so they can have a lame customization system that offers a handful of options.

Skyrim was headed what way? They actually fleshed out combat. All that was nerfed was muh exploits, and even then, there are still exploits.

I'm looking forward to targeted damage. Not VATS, but similar effects.

In keeping with consistency, though, every single piece of equipment you find will not be worth more than 5000 septims, including the elusive Daedric artifacts.
