>The lore is god tier >The games are getting more shit
I'm conflicted, my heart wants to be excited for TES VI, but my brain says it'll probably look amazing when announced, be interesting and hype as fuck when first playing it, and turn out pretty shitty.
Unless they go Fallout 4 route, in which case it will be clear from the beginning that it is shit.
BUT
- Valenwood could be an extremely comfy and interesting setting, being an immersive strange land like Morrowind was.
- RPG factors may have gotten worse in the games, but some aspects have improved. What if they combine all the best elements from the previous games?
if the main race isn't humans they'll lose their normie appeal, and if half the cast are niggers they can bank bonus progressive good boy points
it's guaranteed

>The games are getting more shit But Skyrim is better than Oblivion.
Tyler Bennett
Shhhh. There are too many kids on Sup Forums these days whose first Elder Scrolls was Oblivion and can't accept that it's the worst in the series.
Michael Gomez
...
Ryan Sanchez
Is it though?
I liked the main story a bit better in Skyrim, but all the guild quest lines and general exploring was better in Oblivion desu.
Levi Gonzalez
Truth, Skyrim is miles above Oblivion.
The only thing Oblivion had going for it were better guilds.
Parker Cooper
what RPG mechanich do you think theyll remove next?
my guess is stamina, running out is a pain and it triggers the kiddies. they'll prolly remove alchemy too because its not a legendary weapon you can use to m1 to victory.
Michael Watson
Oblivion has way better guilds and atmosphere and NPC's.
Leo Watson
>implying elves aren't just as popular to normies as humans
It may be Hammerfell or even High Rock, sure, but there's no reason they can't set it in Valenwood. The elves in Skyrim and Morrowind did tend to look bizzare and inhuman but they can also just make it so that elves in the new game are more or less just pretty humans with ears, as in Oblivion (minus the pretty part).
Correct. This actually gives me hope for TES 6 and the fact that Todd said for the love of god I hope he didn't lie again that FO4 was a mistake.
Jayden White
>>shit combat learn to table top
Elijah Hernandez
>Believing his lies He just keeps getting away with it.
Ethan Anderson
The only thing left to remove are skills and replace them with a perk system.
Merge One handed and Two handed, merge some magic that isn't destruction, merge alchemy and enchanting. Merge boots, gauntlets and armor.
Is there anything else they could casualise that is actually reasonable for Bethesda?
Cameron Cruz
The way Bethesda's been going I wouldn't bet on it being good at all.
Cooper Foster
>general exploring was better in Oblivion Really? I thought the world and especially the dungeons were pretty boring compared to Skyrim or Morrowind.
Adam Flores
>but all the guild quest lines Is it really though? I thought Oblivion Fighter's guild was boring whereas Skyrim's is at least a bit interesting. Dark Brotherhood and Thieve's guild are among the best quest lines in the game for both Skyrim and Oblivion, Skyrim and Oblivion's Mages guilds are so boring I've still never finished them.
Chase Rivera
Simplify stats and skill trees to the point where it's just Magic, Sneak, Crafting, Weapons, and Armour.
Mason Jenkins
I hope illusion magic gets some more variety in TES VI.
I mean it was overpowered as fuck in skyrim despite having no variety, but I want more variety even if it breaks the game.
Colton Ortiz
This. Also, it still feels like an RPG: It has a quest diary instead of eternal quest marker that just tells you where to go. You can create your class and put points in stuff. It attempted classic RPG atmosphere by having some game events pop up as text-info, like when you turn vampire and the dreams you have as you turn more and more. In Skyrim you don't pick a sign under which you were born, oh no, that would be too much of a commitment. No, you just pick whatever stone you want at the moment for a free buff. In Skyrim you are encouraged to do everything in 1 playthrough, no boundaries, no selectiveness, almost no roleplaying. Oblivion is the game where you fucking go literally inside a painting, or literally jump into the nightmare of some dude who can't wake up, or go to an island of a kidnapper where he holds his own hunting game/tournament and beat him. Oblivion is the game that has memorable characters like Lucien Lachance, a Vampire count, the creepiest bosmer ever such as adoring fan and glarthir. Oblivion has smaller things going for it like menus: journal, listing your rank in your guilds with cool unique symbols for all the ranks, text-messages like when you level up etc. And it has the bigger things going for it like interesting questlines, both guilds and random quests.
Jose Morales
I just want to be a Illusion Stealth Archer
Ethan Clark
I mean you could quite easily frenzy and snipe people in skyrim, though it's more time effective to just calm everyone and walk on by or slit their throat.
Zachary Mitchell
This because every game this last year has been a fucking desert so they won't be able to resist. It'll be easy enough to make an empty ass desert game world.
Michael Foster
>Morrowind had shit combat
Your opinion is invalidated
Elijah Lopez
>No roleplaying >No boundaries
Pick one
Jaxson Sanchez
>>implying elves aren't just as popular to normies as humans They really aren't. Normalfags don't like strange eccentric (aka interesting) things they just want whats familiar over and over.
Daniel Myers
But elves are familiar and are completely uninteresting.
That said I play goblins or orcs whenever they're available in anything so I'm probably a fucking weirdo.
Zachary Taylor
They won't remove alchemy but they may very well dumb it down to shit tier crafting level.
Christian Reyes
You Bethesdrones are the fucking worst
>Oh no, it's okay! Todd said FO4 was a mistake even though it was the best selling Fallout game to date! >Sk-Skyrim was actually an improvement from Oblivion and definitely not a casualized cinematic memefest! I'm sure looking forward to Skyrim 2!
Face it, if you liked Morrowind, then Bethesda is fucking dead to you. They know where the market is.
Jayden Turner
It's been just over five years and they still haven't finished Skyrim.
Don't get your hopes up.
Isaiah Cox
This man is correct.
Tyler Peterson
>>The lore is god tier
Ahahahahhahahhaahhahahahahahahahah
Jace Bailey
There is nothing Skyrim did better than Oblivion other than fixing the god-awful graphics and level scaling. Even the combat is worse.
Carter Lopez
they should go back to morrowind or at least oblivions skill system. skyrim perks sucked ass
Camden Young
Yep.

Chase Roberts

Parker Martinez
imagine next TES with morrowind combat but animated dodges and blocks.
William Lewis
>there are people who will defend Oblivion
Caleb Phillips
To be fair, if Swordsinging becomes the next gimmick it'll have to be more flexible than just swords to accomodate different characters. Maybe you sining axes, hammers, bows or staves too
Nathaniel Campbell
You can't honestly defend the guild quests in Skyrim. The College questline was like three dungeons with four actual characters, in which nothing was explained, you jumped up in rank from some dumb nigger who could barely summon a dremora to leader of the guild in about two hours.
Oblivion's Mage Guild at least had you fight the King of Worms and get a pretty cool staff out of the whole deal. There was an actual sense of progression from lowly apprentice to actual mage, even if the spellcrafting system it handed you was broken.
Cooper Cook
Who cares. We all know it's just going to serve as a next gen mod platform.
Juan Perez
The Redguard are literally such good swordsmen that they can cut the fabric of reality. To dumb that down for more homogenized horseshit so everyone can "play it their way" would be the final nail in the coffin.
Joseph Robinson
You try snorting coke and paint thinner and write something better
Jordan Martinez
Compromise, you carry around different (or possibly just one) special ceremonial sword regardless of your class and can use it to activate various powers like shouts.
Jace Johnson
I wanted to use something similar to my Oblivion stealth archer but they decided to remove the Chameleon spell
