      Probably COVID, so I’d add 2 years to each of these dates for possible releases if a project hasn’t been cancelled.

      I’d love an Oblivion remaster next year. Although I have a sneaking suspicion the Skyblivion project might end up being the more polished experience.

      Well we all knew that much at least. It was originally announced to be released in 2022 but they pushed it back almost a full year to 2023. Guessing when development slowed due to salvage work needed for Fallout 76 and then likely a mandate from Microsoft to polish it more before release.

    So considering that starfield got pushed 2 years it’s safe to assume Elder scrolls 6 got pushed at least that as well so 2026/7 for that, a full 15 years after elder scrolls 5

        I played ESO at release and had a lot of fun for a bit, now I understand it’s moved to a f2p game with a thousand expansions so I’m super behind and I just don’t feel like catching back up or trying it again as I’m just not into online stuff much anymore

          MMOs don’t feel practical these days with so many games to play. Who has that much time to dedicate to one game?

          I’m not sure if the game market has changed, or just my perspective of time. Probably both.

            Bit of both, people have less time on average, and its hard to break into the MMO market when its only dominated by giants due to the amount of content required to make a competant mmo.

            There is still a huge market though.

      I hate thinking about how old I will be when it gets released and how young I was when I saw the stupid trailer for it. BLEGH.

    Holy shit talk about fucking NOTHING. I guess elder scrolls is just forever fucked into live service content-at-a-slow-trickle-pace hell?

    Who the fuck asked for any of this shit, doom and maybe dishonored aside???

    Aren’t those remasters like Oblivion and Fallout 3 outsourced to some differnt studio, which is using Unreal engine for them? It won’t be very moddable then.

    I will just wait for Skyblivion.
