Well Its a free county and say what I want and you brought up Fallout 4 in your post soo...

Ugh.



"Fallout".



What a colossal waste of time.



[/quote]I don't want to derail the thread but i disagree . Bethesda working in a new Fallout is not a waste of time. They are pleasing TES fans with an Online version , why not please Fallout fans next ? I want a new Fallout and i don't care if is developed
by them or by another Dev including Obsidian as long as the game end being so enjoyable like previous Fallout games. Then make a new TES.

If you don't like the franchise fine...but don't call it a waste of time just for that.

 

1. I'd like to see to see fewer companions, but more detail and back story on the ones we do have. I'd like to see some console commands. Nothing completely game altering. Just some cheatcodes like we had with Morrowind. I'd like to see some adult content.
I always thought it was lame that my wife would not perform her ...*ahem* wifely duties.

.

2. I want more guilds and factions to join like there were in Morrowind. And the dual wielding from Skyrim is nonnegotiable. Dual wield or bust.

.

3. I'd like to go to the country of Elves. Seeing the forests and the country side of Valenwood would be amazing with current gen technology. And considering how poorly the elves were treated in Skyrim, it would be cool to see the other side of that coin.

.

4. I wouldn't mind fighting more dragons as long as they aren't a core aspect of the game. Like if I'm randomly wandering around some mountain top and a dragon comes at me, that would be cool.

.

5. Yes, I'm hoping they add pokemon to the game. That would be a great source of side activities. Gotta catch em all. I've been tweeting this idea at Todd Howard, but he has yet to get back to me. I'll let you guys know when he does. Should be any minute
now.

 

A 1080p Morrowind, and I'll be happy.

 

More high fantasy stuff.

.

I remember in Morrowind there was a huge tree where you could levitate to higher levels. It was a little colony.

.

Stuff like that. They let that go every since Oblivion.

Don't be that guy.

[quote user="Bad Instincts"]

Good thread UW. I would like to know your answers to your own questions. =-)

[/quote]

Happy to oblige.

1: What would you like to see in the next Elder Scrolls game?

I would like to see more focus on detail. A world that is even more alive than any game before it.

2: What elements of past Elder Scrolls games would you like to change or see return?

I would like to see mods make an appearance on the Xbox One. Steam Workshop has showed that there can be an easy platform to get them working. If Microsoft used that as their guideline it would be very interesting to see what users could come up with. A Creation
Kit for the Xbox One would be fantastic.

I would also like to see a seamless world. I don't want to see a loading screen when I leave a cave with monsters chasing me. I want them to chase me and chase me until death do us part.

A screenshot capture feature would be the icing on the cake. Why limit such things to PC players only? Let the console players have fun with the game as well.

3: Would you like to revisit any past areas or just stick with something completely fresh?

I, personally would like a game that spans all of the regions we have already visited. Bringing everything to life in ways we haven't see yet.

4: Do you want to fight dragons again?

Definitely. I think Dragons shouldn't be the big focus, but perhaps the odd Dragon lair with lots of treasure to loot would be a nice touch. Make fighting them feel claustrophobic and challenging. ather than them be random, have them tied to specific locations
and make them extremely hard to kill. Dragons are legendary creatures who have survivied for many years for a reason.

5: Are there any other fantasy monsters you would like to see?

Definitely. Chimera's, Griffon's, Pegasus, Unicorn's! How I would love to have a Unicorn, or Pegasus, as a mount.

 

AZ you're definitely in the minority saying that Fallout 4 is a waste of time. F3 was one of the most popular and well-received games in the history of gaming.

.

As far as Elder Scrolls goes. There are elements of Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim that I would like in the next game. Where Oblivion was dark, Skyrim was light. Both good games. What was Morrowind? I know I loved it but it's been so many years. I
remember the crazy sandstorm. lol Also that I loved the story. Oblivion left you feeling helpless and unprotected once you crossed over into a gate. I enjoyed that element. Maybe bringing some fear back into the series would be nice. Skyrim had little
of that but it was still very enjoyable. I do hope they spend a bit more time on character development. All the characters of Skyrim seem to be pull-string characters that will say one of four random quotes. There should be at least 15-20 key characters
that have a story to be told over time as they get to know ur character. Skyrim's gameplay was heavily focused on exploration, maybe a bit too much emphasis. I'd personally be happy with 50 less caves and more backstory for some of the characters. Beth
needs to take something from the bioware games. Can u imagine if Beth and Bioware came together for the next Elder Scrolls game? And if it becomes an MMORPG I'm finished with it.

No. They are pleasing money hungry executives who want a slice of the multi-million dollar "World Of Warcraft Pie" and teenagers who think you can only enjoy a game if it has multiplayer.

Bethesda already have my permission to palm the development of "Fallout 4" to anyone they please as long as it doesn't impede the development of "The Elder Scrolls VI".



Remember. It's not that "Fallout" is a waste of time. It's that "Fallout 4" is a waste of time if that time could be spent making "TES VI". If they follow the model suggested above...



Everybody wins.

I can't see that happening lol

 

I'd like to see mod support so we can see the kinds of additional content we see on the PC. There is a large group of very talented artist/designers in the gaming community that have always done amazing things for the ES series.

Console games have lagged behind in this area and it would be the perfect opportunity for a Bethesda to bring a new feature to the console other than simple map editors.

I forgot to add TES fans that are asking for it. I am a fan like many others that rather better a singleplayer version than An MMO. I agree with you about the current gen of gamers that want MMO/MP/Coop on every single game. I just
hope do not happens like SW since it took the MMO route singleplayers RPGs like KoTOR were forgotten.

[/quote]Thats good. I haven't gotten around to playing the DLC yet, but still....most of Oblivion and Skyrim are not high fantasy. So the little there was...to boot in a DLC...doesn't make the cut.

 

I would like it to be fun.

Seriously, I'm jelly of all of you who love the game. I think the world-building and exploration is great but everything in-between sucks imo. I find neither the rpg elements nor the action elements fun. There was something at least in Oblivion that ticked
with me and I really want to play Morrowind but I find Bethesda has just streamlined their games...a lot.

I hope that Bethesda are able to re-capture the lofty role-playing heights of "Oblivion" in future games.



Here is a game that you could play numerous times and have a fairly unique and different game every time.



"Morrowind" was amazing when it came out... but as people became very familiar with it "Morrwoind" became a Loot driven game. As soon as you started you legged it to Balmora, stole the Grand Soul Gem, sold it to the Creeper and then went off to Ghostgate
to raid the Temple Treasury before setting off to collect "The Lord's Mail"... etc...



In "Oblivion" if you wanted to run through everything with a single character you could... if you wanted to Roleplay then your different characters had different experiences depending on their motivations and dispositions.



The only problem was Bethesda gave people so much rope when it came to roleplaying that many players ended up hanging themselves, unable to find any true meaning for their characters and while players played, they complained.



The unfortunate result is that the quests in "Skyrim" are so 'over-written' for those incapable of roleplaying that character choice is impeded and you end up feeling your character is restricted.
