Todd said they don't have the technology yet to make ES6, so my guess is they will wait until 2020 for the PS5 and their new engine.

 

for the 3 projects I believe it will be:

 

1. Elder Scrolls Legends

2. New VR game

3. Sci Fi open world game which will be the last on their Creation Engine

Elder Scrolls Legends is being made by an entirely different studio. I hope not, more and more people are losing faith in VR with PC VR games being nothing but shovelware akin to a lot of the "Wii Sports games" that hurt the Wii's catalog for awhile and it doesn't help that Sony is treating it like a complete gimmick. A Sci-fi game would be cool though.

The use of the old engine is OVER, save for ports/remasters of earlier games. Skyrim is having a VERY basic port, and FO3 should see a remaster a little afterwards.

 

The Online 'elder scrolls' games have ZERO impact on new open-world Beth games, since their dev team was created fromt scratch for the purpose, and thus does NOT steal dev time/resources from open-world dev.

 

The VR 'game' is Zenimax's play to provide legal ammunition for their evil court battle with Oculus Rift. Some VERY lesser engine coders have this baby, since VR engines use methods even more prehistoric than those found in FO4. Essentially you strip a scene to trivially rendered meshes, focusing on mesh and texture quality, NOT shaders and lighting and post-processing.

 

Beth has clearly done most of the work on the new iDTech engine that is to be used for ALL Beth games going forward (see EA and Ubisoft for examples of the same engine policies). The open-world A-team has been working on Skyrim 2 (placeholder name) for a VERY long time, and now its just a case of them exploiting the new engine to the max, and ensuring mods will ONLY work via Beth.net. This last point is the most important to Zenimax.

 

If Beth shows any efficiency, I'd expect to see 'Skyrim 2' available at the end of next year. But if their new projects come thru on time (and the FO3 remaster does well), I'm sure Zenimax would be happy to see it pushed back a year.

I've always loved the world of Mass Effect and wondered what it would be like to roam that kind of world in a Bethesda style game. Freely traveling to different worlds and space stations and being able to interact with everything would be fun. Customizing your own ship as you did settlements in FO4 could be fun as well.

 

I'm not really interested in the card game they have planned and VR, to me, will play out exactly like 3d did for tvs. The tv industry said we just had to have it and its what everyone wanted. The people didn't want it. It was a gimmick just to get people to buy the merchandise. Sure, it looks cool but as a person who wears glasses I don't purchase things I need to strap to my head.

Please stop making up bull* and passing it off as facts. You clearly have no actual knowledge on the situation and are spewing garbage.

"new iDTech" actually they will probably continue using id tech 6 for some time. For any matter, they haven't been using id tech engine for their Creation Engine games and probably won't.

"Open world A-team" What Bethsoft employees would those be?

"Skyrim 2" the Elderscrolls games are not released as direct sequels. It will be Elderscrolls VI

"mods will ONLY work via Beth.net" please get over yourself and your hyperbolic lies.

Thanks :thumbsup:

Or just chilling in some small town doing your own thing.

 

Bioware showed some good landscaping in the last DA, but it was not good for gameplay (it was hard to use and boring to travel on.)

If they teams worked together for a game, it can be really good i would not mind the AI and gameplay.
