You gotta hand it to the sheepshaggers keeping it alive for this long especially considering the history of the isles. Gaelic isn't doing too good, Old Brythonic is dead, Cornish is barely hanging on and Scots got buckbroken by a furgay from the US.

The funny thing about Wales vs Ireland is that in Wales the language survived but the dance music didn't and in Ireland the opposite happened.
You wouldn't get music like this in Wales but you get people speaking the language in everyday life. The schools I went to in North and Mid Wales taught every class in Welsh apart from English class. In Ireland they teach Irish but it's only in one class and you wouldn't find people speaking it too each other outside a select few counties

You could chalk this up to the paddys loving to party so being able to recite the language in a drunken stupor would certainly help. Maybe their close proximity with the bongs of the south made them boring and stuffy over that time and with the government enforcement of the language preservation efforts singing wasn't included in that mandate.

I know in Wales the Presbyterian faith got quite popular, for Presbyterians any kind of fun is a sin so that's why the dance music died out, but they would still sing Choir hyms in Welsh so the language stayed and there is till a strong tradition of Choir singing today

Well in Ireland most people only speak a small amount of Irish. You learn it in school but pretty much no one speaks it outside of that with the exception of the gaeltacht areas. In Wales you still get many people speaking Welsh to eachother and all classes in school are taught in Welsh, it's true of north and mid wales but I'm not sure about the south

In all seriousness, I don't think we're going to get a genuine advancement in TES or Fallout games until Todd leaves the company. From what I understand, he's the one calling most of the shots and he absolutely REFUSES to acknowledge the benefits of switching to a modern engine. Even in interviews he himself states that Creation Engine lets them "create things faster", which is a fricking laughable thing to say 13 years after Skyrim with still no ES6 anywhere near release. For a long time I was okay with giving them the benefit of the doubt because I'm not a professional game dev, but at this point they've made the same game but kinda worse like 5 times in a row now. They've clearly COMPLETELY stagnated, and that mouldy-ass engine is absolutely part of the problem. Its lighting, physics, and animation short-comings are were glaringly issues 5 years ago, now they're pathetic.
>and he absolutely REFUSES to acknowledge the benefits of switching to a modern engine
This right here tells me you don't even know what the actual issues with the game are.
You can fly, in real time, from one planet to another, and the planet actually exists as a 3d model. You just can't land on it because the game wasn't designed to work that way since only a moron would fly at sub light speed between planets, when that takes like 10 hours IRL, when you can just FTL jump to it in 3 seconds.
Same thing with towns/shops. As far back as Morrowind people have merged towns, and interiors, into the regular game world and it runs fine. Bethesda only does it because of consoles, not because the engine can't do it.
I know exactly what the issues are. A big part of it is engine limitations. LOD, draw distance, animation blending, and physics are very outdated and they cannot be made to feel good. Modders can minorly improve these things, but they're only "better" in comparison with the rock bottom bar Bethesda sets for those things.
Story, dialogue, RPG mechanics, and balance/scaling are all issues as well and have nothing to do with the engine; however, I didn't say the engine was the only thing wrong with their games.
Creation Engine apologists are delusional.
> LOD, draw distance
So you haven't played Starfield at all?

I have, and those things still felt dated. There are also no environments in Starfield where an impressive draw distance or LOD would be taxed. Every environment that wasn't an interior was extremely bare bones. 9 foot tall trees and/or some boulders. The technical improvements in their games move at a fricking snail's pace. They inch along with their improvements once ever 3-5 years and are getting absolutely left in the dust.
Their engine was cutting edge like 20 years ago, but it absolutely cannot keep up. They need to move on.

The simple truth is that they put the spongy combat it because all their games are console centric. Their UIs are God awful on PC but pretty good at that they do on console. That and the good modders have a better idea on what they're doing than 90% of the devs

Funny thing about the AI. Bethesda has said in basically every game since Oblivion that thier AI is originally designed to be much harder, but playteasters hate it so they massively dumb it down.
The engine has frick all to do with AI. You can put whatever AI you want into Creation, and you can make the AI just as "bad" as it is in Bethesda games in Unreal or w/e.

Usually its too hard, and most people don't play game's for difficulty.
I know dragons in Skyrim used to have access to a wide variety of shouts ranging from become etherial, to that fast jump/movement shout, all of which got cut because playteasters found it too hard. So in the released game they just get fire/forst breach, and the fus-ro-dah shout.

Reminds me of the developer commentary for Half Life 2 episode 2 where Valve mentions the antlion tunnels in episode 2 used to be more complex, but some playtester kept going in a loop for like 3 hours, so they closed a bunch of it off and made it more linear so people couldn't get lost.

I remember see that as well. It's kinda sad, but I get why you wouldn't want to make your multi-million dollar project unpalatable to a wider audience. Still sucks for everyone else with triple digit IQs, though. Although, I think devs/publishers do underestimate how complex and challenging you can make your game if it's intuitive enough and/or the tutorials are efficient. Games are definitely dumbed down MORE than they need to be at this point.

It's pretty obvious that, as you said, since Oblivion their games are made for gorilla tier morons and 12 year olds
The quest marker tells me everything I need to know
Starfield's physics engine is light-years ahead of other RPGs and fairly impressive for games in general. The potato room is a gimmick but it demonstrates the point.
Todd isnt going to replace creation engine because everyone working at Bethesda is way too old and do not have the time to retrain themselves on a new engine. This is what happens when you have legacy employees instead of gutting everyone out completely and replacing them with new hires that knows how to use modern engines.
Once Todd is gone and everyone else retires with him, Bethesda will be free to swap engines since nobody there will have a clue what to do with the creation engine anymore.
True. If everyone left and new people came in, they'd all be scratching their frickin heads at this Frankenstein's engine. I really don't get how this is a controversial statement. That "Bethesda Jank" that we ALL know is because of the engine. The same bugs and jank that were in Oblivion are in fricking Starfield.
A new engine won't fix their boring writing or abandonment of actual RPG mechanics, but it will fix at least one aspect of their terribly aging games.
A big part of the problem though is that modding is the big thing that gives their games such long lifespans and continual engagement. Without that they'd essentially just have the one shot and that's it like everybody else.
If they made a new engine themselves, yeah, they could continue that since it'd probably still be somewhat similar to CE. But if they dropped it for UE or something, that'd put that in jeopardy.
It wouldn't surprise me if Todd was holding out because he's nervous as hell about this part more than anything else. He knows they ain't got no sauce without fans handing it to them.
That's a good point, and historically I've given their engine a lot of leniency because of that exact reason. However, I think we're starting to see a tipping point in their game design; Starfield is so middling in longevity, replayability, and innovation that the normally reliable modding community don't seem to care about it that much. That could change with updates I guess, but the interest so far has been very lack-luster compared to something like Skyrim. Part of their problem is engine related, and part of it isn't, so an engine change would go some way into addressing the issue.
All of this is academic at this point, since they've chosen to keep their ghetto-ass engine for yet another TES game.
>that the normally reliable modding community don't seem to care about it that much.
Starfield is already like the 10th most modded game on Nexus, only behind Bethesda's other games, CP2077, and Terraria.
For not having its CK out, its doing pretty well so far.
It will pick up. Skyrim unmodded isnt actually a great game like the journos make it out to be and that game is probably the most modded game by far. One things for sure though some good fricking POIs and seamless travel need to come out.
>Yes It's SO playable and fun! >What? No it's not releasing soon >You can't see any gameplay >We need 4 years to iron out all the bugs, you gotta believe me!
fun? after the mess that was starfield and how supposedly "astronauts didn't get bored on the moon" I don't trust Bethesda to understand the meaning of FUN
>40 devs made morrowind >70 devs made oblivion >100 devs made skyrim >500 devs making The Elder Scrolls 6
yet they take magnitudes longer to make games
>From the Starfield studio >this fricking thread
I know it will be shit but holy frick you Black folk are desperate for anything right now. Shut the frick up and let Todd do his easy job that he's lacking the skill for, THEN we can laugh at him.
>Oblivion had Oblivion Gates >Skyrim had Dragons and Shouting
what meme gimmick will they add to distract you from the mechanics and skills they removed this time?
It's basically just the spaceship part of starfield except you can't go up and down, since the shipbuilding was the only half decent part of starfield I'm guessing they'll want something like that in TES6
Good Lord, I can't imagine how glitchy that shit would of they tried to make it seamless. They're gonna add a loading screen between getting on and getting off your boat and pretend it's innovative.
>get on boat >animation of boat sailing off into the distance >loading screen >during boat gameplay you can't actually sail anywhere or get close to land >you just open the map and choose an island to sail to
Monkey pawed >you get levitation >but all outside dungeons become generic outposts so you can't break their scripting by levitating to another entrance
I dont think they are going to remove mechanics and skills this time. They have been trying ot add more choices since fans have grilled them over simplifying their games too much.
Starfield didn't add anything. Crafting is worse. Outposts are worse. Companions will constantly moan at you. Perks are worse. There's fewer gear slots. Can you imagine 16 times the loading screens, though?
An example of a quest; You'll Go to a star yard, talk to a lady, need to fetch a
beverage. 10 loading screens later and you got a beverage that's it. That's the only quest in that handcrafted location.
I honestly believe we have the worst UI in the world because hey you know the modders will fix that and after 100 hours in the game I still have no idea where anything is in New Atlantis. I honestly have zero clue where my penthouse apartment is.
>Perks are worse.
Perks are way better than Fo4 or Skyrim. >Companions will constantly moan at you.
Not really. >Crafting is worse.
Its the exact same system as Fo4, just with far less junk to pick up to make it work. > That's the only quest in that handcrafted location.
So like many quests in Skyrim and Fo4? > I still have no idea where anything is in New Atlantis. I honestly have zero clue where my penthouse apartment is.
This speaks more of your personal issue than anything. New Atlantiss is so small I memorized the layout in the first 3 hours of the game. Its fricking impossible to get lost unless you have zero object permanence.
Perks genuinely suck. Many of them are to this day still bugged (upgrading ship shield makes your shields worse).
>Pick up random pen >Sarah, "OMG DID YOU JUST FRICKING DO THAT? NO YOU DIDN'T! YOU'RE HILTER! I WANT A DIVORCE!
In Skyrim the basic radiant quests that the game randomly generates have more depth than the handcrafted beverage boy quests in Starfield, which are complete with hand written dialogue about how delicious terrabrew coffee is.
The cities not having maps in an inescapable regression. There's 3 fricking towns in the game and they still didn't do it.

That quest with the terrabrew coffee girl is so weird. the way she delivered her dialogue sounded like she had been brainwashed to want terrabrew coffee and I thought that there was going to be a twist that someone had been drugging the coffee or something, but it turned out the voice acting was just shit

I was honestly hoping I could play an NTR angle or some shit and bang her. But no, I literally was just getting coffee for some janitor I met 20 seconds ago.
I gave up on them after skyrim but starfield ironically made me more hopeful for the next ES (i didnt buy it but i watched people play). I dont think bethesda are actually good at game design but if they have enough stuff to play around with in their games and let you mod then you can roleplay out some of your own fun
People complained about streamlining and simplification since Skyrim. Bethesda then made Fallout 4, Fallout 76 and Starfield, which all continued the trend. Bethesda isn't listening.
>Fallout 4 added a lot of much requested features/gameplay elements.
Really anon? Please explain what RPG mechanics Fallout 4 added over New Vegas?
I can tell you the ones they removed like skill checks and individual trees.
What did we get for losing these?
Skills in Fo3 and NV didn't work worth a shit though.
The 1-100 skill system was designed for character skill based isometric RPGs where the player had no hand in the result of the fight. In this situation each skill point could offer meaningful bonuses to accuracy that massively impacted the fight.
Fo3, NV, and Fo4, weren't that though. They were action RPGs where player skill was the primary factor. Because of this, things like accuracy bonuses to weapon skills means frick all, and you could go 20-25 points in something like a weapon skill before seeing any actual effective icnrease. This same issue existed with things like lockpicking, hack, and most other skills in the game.
At the point only every 20-25 skill points matter, why do you have a 1-100 skill? Why not just make it a 4-5 rank perk, where each perk rank = those 20-25 skills?
Fallout 4 changed frick all about how the game actually worked, it just presented how Fo3 and NV actually worked in a more honest way.
Also, Fallout made SPECIAL more important since, due to the "removal" of skills, you couldn't have contradictions like a 1 charisma character, that had 100 in speech/barter and got the best prices/passed every speech check regardless. Now charisma is the most important thing, since its the primary stat on speech checks. Ditto for the other SPECIAL attributes in Fo4 compared to Fo3 and NV.

Got mad over the changes.
the changes Fallout 4 made also fixed some other issues such as
-Being able to constantly level up meant you were always rewarded for shit you did in the game unlike Fo3/NV.
-Changing everything to perks, and limiting it to one perk point per level, made it far easier to balance. Unlike Fo3 and NV, where it was piss easy to metagame and get 10 in all SPECIAL, and 100 in all skills, and all the best perks, before even being done with half the game's content, you basically have to replay everything in Fo4 like 3-4 times over to get all the perks(due to exponential EXP requirements)
-Making it to where you don't have to spend all your perk points on level up means you can actually make a build and stick with it. This unlike F3 and NV where you were often forced to go past your build because of forced level ups.
So on top of the Fo4 perk system being a more accurate representation of how Fo3 and NV played in reality, and making SPECIAL stats like Charisma actually useful, it fixed these others problems as well. Its honestly just a better system if you put any examination into how these systems worked.
Paid mods version 7. They will replace every dungeon with a bidding system to highest bidding modder who sets the price to recoup the cost. Todd get 80% of it, and the modder might get some if he has a good attitude about it.
>some other companies are gonna beat them
the absolute state of Bethesda Skyrim and it's older titles will stay king Jesus Christ there's nothing left but to milk the cow
Elder scrolls needs to adopt the Conan Exiles stat and combat system.
Its the perfect blend of action + RPG that pleases both shitters and people who want engaging gameplay.
nothing wrong with not changing engines as long as you update them, creation engine can do seamless interiors and exteriors fine but with all the background stuff going on with radiant NPCs consoles just can't handle it
Its actually far better for modding becuase its SO MUCH easier to make a new location, and jam it into the POI proc gen system, then constantly have to worry about conflicting with pre-set cells, and other mods, in a static world like skyrim's.
They haven't even released the modding kit yet. It's like they've completely given up on it. They're talking about progress on TES6 when they still have the Shattered Space DLC to release, no news on that either
honestly i am having more fun trying to predict whether they will try to learn from starfield's failures or double down on them.
i have a hypothesis that alot of the systems in borefield have been made to be reusable, travel in elder flop 6 will feel eerily similar to flopfield, so will the mele and the magic, and most importantly the beautiful racially ambiguous faces.

Bethesda will be merged or split in the future. They made good games 10 years ago but it's unironically over if they don't start to use modern qol features. No one wants loading screens in a 2030 release game, no one wants janky NPCs, no one wants diarrhea brown textures, bugs, boring travel, shitty quests, stupid story.
People are desperate for a great RPG but I'm sure as it's Bethesda, it's going to be shit and hopefully MS closes them.

No, in fact, one of the most frequent suggestions I see people give out is people saying to turn the game down to "very easy" during space fights because its "too hard" otherwise.
That's because if you didn't put any points into space skills it's literally impossible to win space fights even with a good ship on anything other than easy, and since there was very little reason to engage with the space shit it felt wasted adding points to those skills
>That's because if you didn't put any points into space skills it's literally impossible to win space fights even with a good ship on anything other than easy,

I know in Wales the Presbyterian faith got quite popular, for Presbyterians any kind of fun is a sin so that's why the dance music died out, but they would still sing Choir hyms in Welsh so the language stayed and there is till a strong tradition of Choir singing today
That doesn't surprise me old myths tend to die hard once the bible thumping gets involved. Anything that doesn't hold the faith as absolute tends to get lost in the sands of time.
>the language didn't
what, please give inside info.
Well in Ireland most people only speak a small amount of Irish. You learn it in school but pretty much no one speaks it outside of that with the exception of the gaeltacht areas. In Wales you still get many people speaking Welsh to eachother and all classes in school are taught in Welsh, it's true of north and mid wales but I'm not sure about the south
my only contact was dating an irish girl 10 years ago and her speaking munster, while her friend spoke connacht. i assumed it was more prevalent in non plastic-paddies.

Imagine Wind Waker where you can see the islands in the distance, but sailing directly to them is out of the question
I mean the cities might be closed off again, but fricking Skyrim managed to have moving ships as a mod.
And Oblivion managed to have open cities as a mod. What you said has absolutely zero impact on Bethesda's ability to half-ass a game.
>You see that island? You can't go there!

Good one anon
>will they finally innovate?
No
In all seriousness, I don't think we're going to get a genuine advancement in TES or Fallout games until Todd leaves the company. From what I understand, he's the one calling most of the shots and he absolutely REFUSES to acknowledge the benefits of switching to a modern engine. Even in interviews he himself states that Creation Engine lets them "create things faster", which is a fricking laughable thing to say 13 years after Skyrim with still no ES6 anywhere near release. For a long time I was okay with giving them the benefit of the doubt because I'm not a professional game dev, but at this point they've made the same game but kinda worse like 5 times in a row now. They've clearly COMPLETELY stagnated, and that mouldy-ass engine is absolutely part of the problem. Its lighting, physics, and animation short-comings are were glaringly issues 5 years ago, now they're pathetic.
>and he absolutely REFUSES to acknowledge the benefits of switching to a modern engine
This right here tells me you don't even know what the actual issues with the game are.
exactly, the loading screen are bad but they're not what killed starfield
Loading screens aren't even an engine issue.
You can fly, in real time, from one planet to another, and the planet actually exists as a 3d model. You just can't land on it because the game wasn't designed to work that way since only a moron would fly at sub light speed between planets, when that takes like 10 hours IRL, when you can just FTL jump to it in 3 seconds.
Same thing with towns/shops. As far back as Morrowind people have merged towns, and interiors, into the regular game world and it runs fine. Bethesda only does it because of consoles, not because the engine can't do it.
I know exactly what the issues are. A big part of it is engine limitations. LOD, draw distance, animation blending, and physics are very outdated and they cannot be made to feel good. Modders can minorly improve these things, but they're only "better" in comparison with the rock bottom bar Bethesda sets for those things.
Story, dialogue, RPG mechanics, and balance/scaling are all issues as well and have nothing to do with the engine; however, I didn't say the engine was the only thing wrong with their games.
Creation Engine apologists are delusional.
> LOD, draw distance
So you haven't played Starfield at all?
I have, and those things still felt dated. There are also no environments in Starfield where an impressive draw distance or LOD would be taxed. Every environment that wasn't an interior was extremely bare bones. 9 foot tall trees and/or some boulders. The technical improvements in their games move at a fricking snail's pace. They inch along with their improvements once ever 3-5 years and are getting absolutely left in the dust.
Their engine was cutting edge like 20 years ago, but it absolutely cannot keep up. They need to move on.
> Every environment that wasn't an interior was extremely bare bones. 9 foot tall trees and/or some boulders
So you haven't played Starfield, got it.
Make up whatever tangential fanfic you want, but the fact is their engine has become shit compared to other modern options and it's the core issue with almost everything wrong with their floaty, weightless combat, shitty immersion-breaking animations, and Doom 2 level AI.
>their floaty, weightless combat, shitty immersion-breaking animations, and Doom 2 level AI.
None of those have to do with the engine though.
I actually don't think you know what an engine is, or how it works.
It does, and it's weird that you don't know that.
NTA, can you explain why they cant implement a better combat system, even with their 30 year old engine, if they have access to the source code why cant they just implement whatever combat system they want to?
What's really weird is the plethora of gameplay overhauls for Skyrim and FO4 that dramatically improve the game. Why can one modder make such things while the whole of Bethesda can't?
people underestimate game modders, but alot of them are genuinely better than the average game dev, especially for some of the big projects.
>Why can one modder make such things while the whole of Bethesda can't?
They can, they don't because they want the game to be accessible to people.
Same as the AI issue mentioned
The simple truth is that they put the spongy combat it because all their games are console centric. Their UIs are God awful on PC but pretty good at that they do on console. That and the good modders have a better idea on what they're doing than 90% of the devs
Funny thing about the AI. Bethesda has said in basically every game since Oblivion that thier AI is originally designed to be much harder, but playteasters hate it so they massively dumb it down.
The engine has frick all to do with AI. You can put whatever AI you want into Creation, and you can make the AI just as "bad" as it is in Bethesda games in Unreal or w/e.
Did they ever explain what play testers hated about it?
Usually its too hard, and most people don't play game's for difficulty.
I know dragons in Skyrim used to have access to a wide variety of shouts ranging from become etherial, to that fast jump/movement shout, all of which got cut because playteasters found it too hard. So in the released game they just get fire/forst breach, and the fus-ro-dah shout.
damn sucks that the play testers are moronic
Reminds me of the developer commentary for Half Life 2 episode 2 where Valve mentions the antlion tunnels in episode 2 used to be more complex, but some playtester kept going in a loop for like 3 hours, so they closed a bunch of it off and made it more linear so people couldn't get lost.
I remember see that as well. It's kinda sad, but I get why you wouldn't want to make your multi-million dollar project unpalatable to a wider audience. Still sucks for everyone else with triple digit IQs, though. Although, I think devs/publishers do underestimate how complex and challenging you can make your game if it's intuitive enough and/or the tutorials are efficient. Games are definitely dumbed down MORE than they need to be at this point.
They get morons on purpose, that's who they want playing their games
most americans are moronic, so it checks out.
why make products no one will enjoy?
Them designing their games for the lowest skill normie is of course a non-engine problem, but engines absolutely do impose strictures on what you can do with AI.
It's pretty obvious that, as you said, since Oblivion their games are made for gorilla tier morons and 12 year olds
The quest marker tells me everything I need to know
Starfield's physics engine is light-years ahead of other RPGs and fairly impressive for games in general. The potato room is a gimmick but it demonstrates the point.
Todd isnt going to replace creation engine because everyone working at Bethesda is way too old and do not have the time to retrain themselves on a new engine. This is what happens when you have legacy employees instead of gutting everyone out completely and replacing them with new hires that knows how to use modern engines.
Once Todd is gone and everyone else retires with him, Bethesda will be free to swap engines since nobody there will have a clue what to do with the creation engine anymore.
True. If everyone left and new people came in, they'd all be scratching their frickin heads at this Frankenstein's engine. I really don't get how this is a controversial statement. That "Bethesda Jank" that we ALL know is because of the engine. The same bugs and jank that were in Oblivion are in fricking Starfield.
A new engine won't fix their boring writing or abandonment of actual RPG mechanics, but it will fix at least one aspect of their terribly aging games.
>actual RPG mechanics
Such as.
you're exactly right, an entirely new studio would make any bethesda game much better.
It would make it much worse since they have no connection to what makes Bethesda games fun.
We'd get some GTA slop ripoff
>what makes Bethesda games fun.
list 10
A big part of the problem though is that modding is the big thing that gives their games such long lifespans and continual engagement. Without that they'd essentially just have the one shot and that's it like everybody else.
If they made a new engine themselves, yeah, they could continue that since it'd probably still be somewhat similar to CE. But if they dropped it for UE or something, that'd put that in jeopardy.
It wouldn't surprise me if Todd was holding out because he's nervous as hell about this part more than anything else. He knows they ain't got no sauce without fans handing it to them.
That's stupid, just ship the UE editor eith the game for instant mods
Last I heard, the modding scene for Starfield is already neutered because of Bethesda making the game much less friendly to modders.
That's a good point, and historically I've given their engine a lot of leniency because of that exact reason. However, I think we're starting to see a tipping point in their game design; Starfield is so middling in longevity, replayability, and innovation that the normally reliable modding community don't seem to care about it that much. That could change with updates I guess, but the interest so far has been very lack-luster compared to something like Skyrim. Part of their problem is engine related, and part of it isn't, so an engine change would go some way into addressing the issue.
All of this is academic at this point, since they've chosen to keep their ghetto-ass engine for yet another TES game.
>that the normally reliable modding community don't seem to care about it that much.
Starfield is already like the 10th most modded game on Nexus, only behind Bethesda's other games, CP2077, and Terraria.
For not having its CK out, its doing pretty well so far.
It will pick up. Skyrim unmodded isnt actually a great game like the journos make it out to be and that game is probably the most modded game by far. One things for sure though some good fricking POIs and seamless travel need to come out.
todd is on his way out, just riding fat microsoft cash until his nearing retirement.
>will they finally innovate?

wait hold up
elden ring wasnt elder scrolls 6?
If it's not using a new engine and they didn't purge all the dogshit hires responsible for starfield it's dead in the water.
fun? after the mess that was starfield and how supposedly "astronauts didn't get bored on the moon" I don't trust Bethesda to understand the meaning of FUN
I read it as if Bethesda are the ones saying it "sounds fun"
we dont use the word fun here at bethesda
>40 devs made morrowind

I know it will be shit but holy frick you Black folk are desperate for anything right now. Shut the frick up and let Todd do his easy job that he's lacking the skill for, THEN we can laugh at him.
this would be the first time in history Bethesda has made a game that is playable before it hit store shelves
>Oblivion had Oblivion Gates
>Skyrim had Dragons and Shouting
what meme gimmick will they add to distract you from the mechanics and skills they removed this time?
starfield had starshouts so im imagining shouts again
You can go anywhere in all of Tamriel
but when you click the map it generates a little square for you to be in without much interesting
That's essentially just Arena outside of the main dungeons and cities. You can step outside endlessly until things break.
my guess is sword singing or sailing on ships to reach islands
>sailing
>creation engine
Just make the boat a giant hat for an npc hidden under the map.
It's basically just the spaceship part of starfield except you can't go up and down, since the shipbuilding was the only half decent part of starfield I'm guessing they'll want something like that in TES6
Good Lord, I can't imagine how glitchy that shit would of they tried to make it seamless. They're gonna add a loading screen between getting on and getting off your boat and pretend it's innovative.
>get on boat
>animation of boat sailing off into the distance
>loading screen
>during boat gameplay you can't actually sail anywhere or get close to land
>you just open the map and choose an island to sail to
You can brew purple drank and qualify for reparations and welfare.
Bringing back levitation since they had boost packs in Starfield
Monkey pawed
>you get levitation
>but all outside dungeons become generic outposts so you can't break their scripting by levitating to another entrance
I think it would be cool if they kept levitation illegal so if you wanted to use it get to cool places in cities you had to be sneaky about it
Infinite dungeon holes
I dont think they are going to remove mechanics and skills this time. They have been trying ot add more choices since fans have grilled them over simplifying their games too much.
Starfield added back traits, backgrounds, and skill checks. Also made lockpicking/hacking more like Oblivion.
Also added boostpacks which are similar to levitation
Fallout 4 had jetpacks.
only for power armor.
Sure, but its the same mechanic.
Starfield didn't add anything. Crafting is worse. Outposts are worse. Companions will constantly moan at you. Perks are worse. There's fewer gear slots. Can you imagine 16 times the loading screens, though?
An example of a quest; You'll Go to a star yard, talk to a lady, need to fetch a
beverage. 10 loading screens later and you got a beverage that's it. That's the only quest in that handcrafted location.
I honestly believe we have the worst UI in the world because hey you know the modders will fix that and after 100 hours in the game I still have no idea where anything is in New Atlantis. I honestly have zero clue where my penthouse apartment is.
>Perks are worse.
Perks are way better than Fo4 or Skyrim.
>Companions will constantly moan at you.
Not really.
>Crafting is worse.
Its the exact same system as Fo4, just with far less junk to pick up to make it work.
> That's the only quest in that handcrafted location.
So like many quests in Skyrim and Fo4?
> I still have no idea where anything is in New Atlantis. I honestly have zero clue where my penthouse apartment is.
This speaks more of your personal issue than anything. New Atlantiss is so small I memorized the layout in the first 3 hours of the game. Its fricking impossible to get lost unless you have zero object permanence.
Perks genuinely suck. Many of them are to this day still bugged (upgrading ship shield makes your shields worse).
>Pick up random pen
>Sarah, "OMG DID YOU JUST FRICKING DO THAT? NO YOU DIDN'T! YOU'RE HILTER! I WANT A DIVORCE!
In Skyrim the basic radiant quests that the game randomly generates have more depth than the handcrafted beverage boy quests in Starfield, which are complete with hand written dialogue about how delicious terrabrew coffee is.
The cities not having maps in an inescapable regression. There's 3 fricking towns in the game and they still didn't do it.
That quest with the terrabrew coffee girl is so weird. the way she delivered her dialogue sounded like she had been brainwashed to want terrabrew coffee and I thought that there was going to be a twist that someone had been drugging the coffee or something, but it turned out the voice acting was just shit
I was honestly hoping I could play an NTR angle or some shit and bang her. But no, I literally was just getting coffee for some janitor I met 20 seconds ago.
I will keep on hoping and coping that Todd truly creates his magnum opus this time, I don't care what anyone says
I gave up on them after skyrim but starfield ironically made me more hopeful for the next ES (i didnt buy it but i watched people play). I dont think bethesda are actually good at game design but if they have enough stuff to play around with in their games and let you mod then you can roleplay out some of your own fun
People complained about streamlining and simplification since Skyrim. Bethesda then made Fallout 4, Fallout 76 and Starfield, which all continued the trend. Bethesda isn't listening.
>Bethesda then made Fallout 4, Fallout 76 and Starfield, which all continued the trend.
Except they didn't really continue that trend at all.
Fallout 4 and Starfield in particular added a lot of much requested features/gameplay elements.
>Fallout 4 added a lot of much requested features/gameplay elements.
Really anon? Please explain what RPG mechanics Fallout 4 added over New Vegas?
I can tell you the ones they removed like skill checks and individual trees.
What did we get for losing these?
>What did we get for losing these?
Base building and the voiced protagonist. Yay.
>Fallout 4 and Starfield in particular added a lot of much requested features/gameplay elements.
Nobody asked for removing skills and gutting SPECIAL
Skills in Fo3 and NV didn't work worth a shit though.
The 1-100 skill system was designed for character skill based isometric RPGs where the player had no hand in the result of the fight. In this situation each skill point could offer meaningful bonuses to accuracy that massively impacted the fight.
Fo3, NV, and Fo4, weren't that though. They were action RPGs where player skill was the primary factor. Because of this, things like accuracy bonuses to weapon skills means frick all, and you could go 20-25 points in something like a weapon skill before seeing any actual effective icnrease. This same issue existed with things like lockpicking, hack, and most other skills in the game.
At the point only every 20-25 skill points matter, why do you have a 1-100 skill? Why not just make it a 4-5 rank perk, where each perk rank = those 20-25 skills?
Fallout 4 changed frick all about how the game actually worked, it just presented how Fo3 and NV actually worked in a more honest way.
Also, Fallout made SPECIAL more important since, due to the "removal" of skills, you couldn't have contradictions like a 1 charisma character, that had 100 in speech/barter and got the best prices/passed every speech check regardless. Now charisma is the most important thing, since its the primary stat on speech checks. Ditto for the other SPECIAL attributes in Fo4 compared to Fo3 and NV.
Only mongoloid morons who had no idea how these games work, and just want to bang rocks in anger over it
>NOT LOOKING LIKE MUH D&D!
Got mad over the changes.
>They were action RPGs where player skill was the primary factor.
>what is VATS
played hundreds of hours of FNV and even that confused me. the skill system was just thresholds which meant little in between.
the changes Fallout 4 made also fixed some other issues such as
-Being able to constantly level up meant you were always rewarded for shit you did in the game unlike Fo3/NV.
-Changing everything to perks, and limiting it to one perk point per level, made it far easier to balance. Unlike Fo3 and NV, where it was piss easy to metagame and get 10 in all SPECIAL, and 100 in all skills, and all the best perks, before even being done with half the game's content, you basically have to replay everything in Fo4 like 3-4 times over to get all the perks(due to exponential EXP requirements)
-Making it to where you don't have to spend all your perk points on level up means you can actually make a build and stick with it. This unlike F3 and NV where you were often forced to go past your build because of forced level ups.
So on top of the Fo4 perk system being a more accurate representation of how Fo3 and NV played in reality, and making SPECIAL stats like Charisma actually useful, it fixed these others problems as well. Its honestly just a better system if you put any examination into how these systems worked.

Elder scrolls needs to adopt the Conan Exiles stat and combat system.
Its the perfect blend of action + RPG that pleases both shitters and people who want engaging gameplay.
Technically speaking, hasn't ES6 been in a playable state since Morrowind? They haven't changed engines since then.
> They haven't changed engines since then.
Tell me you don't know how engines work, without telling me you don't know how engines work.
nothing wrong with not changing engines as long as you update them, creation engine can do seamless interiors and exteriors fine but with all the background stuff going on with radiant NPCs consoles just can't handle it
also every object in the world has physics
its playable but sounds fun? did you not play it? eso sounded fun too until they fricked it up and kept fricking up
>Fallout 76 was trash

Honestly you have to be kind of a special breed to expect TES VI to be good
76 wasn't even made by Bethesda Maryland, it was an entirely different studio. Also, its not even that bad since Wastelanders.
starfield is better than 4 and I'm tired of pretending it's not.
I'll be almost 40 when this game comes out.
same but i dont think ill reach them
make sure to write a shitpost on my grave once youve played it
May you find peace before the end.
Starfield failed because it wasn't a good atmosphere for modding.
Its actually far better for modding becuase its SO MUCH easier to make a new location, and jam it into the POI proc gen system, then constantly have to worry about conflicting with pre-set cells, and other mods, in a static world like skyrim's.
They haven't even released the modding kit yet. It's like they've completely given up on it. They're talking about progress on TES6 when they still have the Shattered Space DLC to release, no news on that either
When no one believes you anymore that Starfield is ever going to be playable and you have to find something else to lie about
>fun
You could say Bethesda having a blast with that one?
Emil kino inbound, Gankerros. We're going home.
nice hustle, todd.
see that game? you can play it
It's just gonna be a modelswapped Starfield and then Bethesda will officially be on my Never Again list.
honestly i am having more fun trying to predict whether they will try to learn from starfield's failures or double down on them.
i have a hypothesis that alot of the systems in borefield have been made to be reusable, travel in elder flop 6 will feel eerily similar to flopfield, so will the mele and the magic, and most importantly the beautiful racially ambiguous faces.

Also, Todd's Indiana Jones game looks like it fricking sucks as well lol
Saved.
Bethesda will be merged or split in the future. They made good games 10 years ago but it's unironically over if they don't start to use modern qol features. No one wants loading screens in a 2030 release game, no one wants janky NPCs, no one wants diarrhea brown textures, bugs, boring travel, shitty quests, stupid story.
People are desperate for a great RPG but I'm sure as it's Bethesda, it's going to be shit and hopefully MS closes them.
BG3 showed everyone that it's possible to make a good RPG in the modern era. Bethesda just needs to copy them.
>playable state according to Bethesda
hehehe
Are they using the same lead writer that did starfield and fallout 4? I know they are, fricking idiots. I'm not touching this shit with a 10 foot pole at 60$. I'll buy it when it's on sale for 10$. I don't think there's a worse group of writers in AAA gaming, I really don't, and these fricking morons won't get rid of them.
beth tried to play it cool and not anchor down when they struck gold. they walked away from that explosion all cinematic like, and never will light a fuse like that again.
This is a company/development team that thought the same about Fallout 76 and Starfield. They are not a reliable judge of quality.
>playable and sounds fun

>Whats funny is that I've still seen many people say space combat is too hard in Starfield, even with the braindead AI.
Surely you jest?
No, in fact, one of the most frequent suggestions I see people give out is people saying to turn the game down to "very easy" during space fights because its "too hard" otherwise.
That's because if you didn't put any points into space skills it's literally impossible to win space fights even with a good ship on anything other than easy, and since there was very little reason to engage with the space shit it felt wasted adding points to those skills
>That's because if you didn't put any points into space skills it's literally impossible to win space fights even with a good ship on anything other than easy,
