Menace651 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Bethesda is probabl gonna milk TES:Online for another 5+ years. So how long before we see another quality single player TES game? I guess the good thing is there will be plenty of time for modding. Maybe we will see more expansion mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVampireDante Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Don't know how many times this has to be said, but here it is again: Bethesda is not making TES:O - Their parent company Zenimax set up an entirely new studio to run that from. We're more likely to see another Fallout game first though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AurianaValoria1 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Morrowind was released in 2002Oblivion was released in 2006Skyrim was released in 2011 Judging by this pattern of four to five years between release dates, I think it's safe to say we may start hearing something serious about TES VI sometime around 2015-2016. News about early-mid development could come sooner, but I wouldn't expect another game before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chanchan05 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I'd expect it to be a bit later than 2016 because of the possibility that ESO may give more leeway allowing Bethesda to delay the deadline for TES6. It won't be a bad thing, considering how many unfinished stuff they left in Skyrim which would have made the game much better (Civil War Overhaul is an example, since it uses a lot of abandoned/deactivated vanilla assets for the Civil War questline).

kleinstaff Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 probably end of this year or next year thay may tell us what they are working on but i do not expect a real preview for the next TES before late 2016 and with some luck maybe 2017my guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daventry Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Since ESO is run by Zenimax, why cant Bethesda release a TES Game by Next Year aswell if they are ready, why wait till ESO is old news. More importantly, why is there no news of a New Game from Bethesda, weather its Fallout 4 or any other Game by Bethesda. Are they Broke or something, why simply cut Skyrim and say they are done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhegonus Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 they work in cycles, the next big bethesda game will be fallout, then elder scrolls after that, so it will be a fair few years yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Since ESO is run by Zenimax, why cant Bethesda release a TES Game by Next Year aswell if they are ready, why wait till ESO is old news. Beth is not holding back - It just takes 5 to 6 YEARS to make a TES game. Zenimax online's ESO is not changing the Beth release cycle. Zenimax online is a completely separate operation. Beth has a lot of sunk cost into that next game already. They will not see any recovery or repayment until that game is actually released - so they will release it as soon as they think they have most of the bugs worked out. Right now, My guess is that Fallout4 is likely in the running to be the next Beth release - hopefully late this year. But I won't hold my breath. I wouldn't mind a longer delay if it means a new game engine that runs 64 bit and a better SDK released at the same time. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lachdonin Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 An Interview with Todd Howard indicated that we could be waiting awhile. There is no currently planned release schedule for another Bethesda Game Studio's game. That includes Fallout 4. They are aware of the complaints regarding the lack of balance in Skyrim and it's relative shortage of meaningful decisions, and want to take time to properly address them. They are also exploring upcomming technology, as the Creation Engine is only slated for one more title (likely Fallout 4) which means they need to know what engine system they will transition to before laying any concrete plans. At the earliest, we may see Fallout 4 late this year, though 2015 is more likely. TES6 will be 2016 at the earliest, unless Bethesda finds some way to radically shorten development with whatever they replace the Creation Engine with.

Oh my various gods are they finally dropping Gamebryo? If they are then I'll have to reconsider my decision to buy the next TES game then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
