Should name it elderly scrolls because everyone that played the last game at launch is gonna be at retirement age by the time the next one is out

It's hilarious that they "announced" it like 2 years ago and are only now starting to develop it. Why not just wait to announce it later?

Lol, they really fucking announced a game with a teaser trailer 5 years before even beginning development on it. That's absolutely absurd. And here I was thinking they were working on it, albeit on the side because Starfield is/was the focus, this whole time.

They were damaging controlling the Fallout 76 announcement.

I suppose, but I'm getting very tired of "let's announce a game even though we barely just started development." Especially when it's literally just a title drop teaser with no gameplay. Makes fans wait for like 5 to 6 years for the game so there's no point.

100% likely it'll be on the in-house Creation Engine or something stupid and bland like UE5/6

That's hilarious. That they just title dropped it and only now it's in early development. I don't know how this all lines up but:

It was already known that it wouldn't even start development until Starfield was finished. The primary Bethesda dev team that Todd is with works on the mainline games, and they only focus on one at a time.

I don't mind too much as since Skyrim, BGS has consistently released games. I don't think this is comparable to something like Rockstar who've released two games in 13 years or something.

What? As of today they've released one game, Fallout 4, since Skyrim. Skyrim ports don't count.

Fallout 4, Fallout 76, and soon to be Starfield. One game every 4-5 years for a studio of that size, to be making games the size they do, is perfectly reasonable to me. Even if Fallout 76 was hot dog eggs.

Elder Scrolls 6, everything we know:

It was a warm spring day when I was born in April. My mother at time was a simple post office worker who supported my father as he struggled to finish law school. We were hard on money but I'll still never forget the first birthday present I ever got, a burlap stuffed doll of a donkey. I named him Tuby. I brought Tuby with me everywhere until I was 5 when he was tragically lost in a fire. We stayed with my uncle's for a few months until he helped us find a place to live when...

(You get the idea)

The last time they started micromanaging we got Kinect and a bunch of Kinect games. They haven't really done anything in a while. I think we mostly know Scalebound was not because of Microsoft's meddling either.

Hands off in a sense they are technically hands-on yet horribly managed and directionless in video game development.

Sony's R&D team and Microsoft's PR oversight should trade brains for a month.
