Todd Howard from bethesda said in a podcast that their new game has been in development since Fallout 3, and that they could proudly show it, but the timing isn't right, as well as that it is a game the whole staff would love to play.  
I smell an ES:V being put off so that it doesn't take the spotlight from the new crap games like Brink, which i see nothing revolutionary about at all.

Oh god, it's getting closer!

#3 Posted by trophyhunter (5804 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

We'll hear about after new vegas comes out.

#4 Posted by august (3712 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Skyrim in the house.

#5 Posted by Crixaliz (777 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Cool, I was wondering what those guys where up to.
I think every game that Bethesda has announced to be publishing isn't the Elder Scrolls devs.

#6 Posted by Bolthor (86 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Please let it be TES: V and nothing else.

#7 Posted by WitchHunter_Z (882 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Here's hoping for Elder Scrolls: V, just like everyone else.

#8 Posted by Jeust (9597 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Yep. It's Elder Scrolls V or Elder Scrolls: Online. 

#9 Posted by Vinny_Says (5160 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Elder scrolls V is the easy answer but the crazy answer would be Fallout 4.

#10 Posted by artofwar420 (6167 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Which podcast?

I agree, they'll start hyping rage as the next release, and have ESV to look forward to after it

#13 Posted by Blueman (753 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

I really hope it's a new Elder Scrolls game, but i wouldn't rule out Fallout 4.

#14 Edited by gingertastic_10 (4140 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

FALLOUT FUCKING 4!!  
 
Or they are going back to bowling games. Oh god, I'd love a bowling RPG.

Where's Waldo/Wally 2

Man I keep forgetting PAX is a week away, guess cause I'm on the east coast. Here's hoping that would be pretty awesome, especially if you're there to see it in person. 
#18 Posted by The_Laughing_Man (12099 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Rogue warrior 2! 

#19 Posted by No0b0rAmA (1486 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

ELDER SCROLLS 5 UP IN THIS BITCH.

#20 Edited by Aronman789 (2610 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

it damn better not be Fallout 4, been waiting as patiently as i could for these past 4 years, if it isn't ESV, i will.....do something! something bad against bethesda!

#21 Posted by jukezypoo (3658 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

*Ehem* Brink looks pretty cool. 
 
Although I'd flip a shit if it was Elder Scrolls 5, last I heard from them when they were asked directly about it, they seemed to indicate that it had been put on the back-burner for a while. Who knows though? I really do hope it's ES5.

Fuck you and fuck your dreams of ES: Online. 
 
But, I want ESV . I want it so bad it hurts.
#23 Posted by gingertastic_10 (4140 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

They'll probably pull a Insomniac. They'll announce like a downloadable game or something no one cares about, then go oh and here's a new (insert the game you want).  

#24 Posted by Belonpopo (1823 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Pssh* Fuck Elder Scrolls, I want Wet 2: Even Wetter.

#25 Posted by Turbo_Toaster (937 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

ES: V Online would be awesome, though the lag and choppiness in Oblivion make me wonder how possible a sequel would be with an online component. FO3 wasn't too bad for that but it still had it's lag issues.

#26 Posted by Bionicicide (1213 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Same engine as Fallout 3? If so, screw that jank.

#27 Posted by elcalavera (328 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago
@Belonpopo: With that picture of yours, now I'm feeling uncomfortable.
#28 Posted by Jayzilla (2388 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

ES:V, Journey to Khajit. I want the next ES game to have combat and animation like Demons Soulz. The animation and melee combat in the ES series has always been lacking. It never felt heavy enough. I also hated having to hit a dude 30 times to get him to die. 

#29 Posted by Belonpopo (1823 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago
@elcalavera:  Even Wetter than that...  
 
Does that help?

Man I could tell you what I thought of saying when I saw your comment but it would need to basically be edited into a 5 line long string of symbols except for the words "President Reagan says hello".  Personally I would love to see another rogue warrior if for no other reason than it might mean another quick look that was half as funny as the RW 1 vid.  
 
Elder Scrolls Online though?  Eh not so sure it is a good idea.  Maybe if they REALLY put some development into it.  The backstory etc is certainly there though.

The forums for that game are dead. And so many locked topics. Its so funny. 
#32 Posted by scarace360 (4828 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Its actually elder scrolls 6. They just are going to skip 5.

#33 Posted by Aronman789 (2610 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago
@scarace360: now that would be a twist 
 
sure hope the ES books are canon

Yes the correct answer. 
#35 Posted by Druminator (1633 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

I will cry if it's ESV.

#36 Posted by Aronman789 (2610 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago
@Druminator: why?
#37 Posted by sodiumCyclops (2644 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Is it just me? or does no body else realise Brink is being PUBLISHED by Bethesda.

#38 Posted by artofwar420 (6167 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago
@Aronman789: Thanks! That completely flew past my radar. I love Bethesda.
#39 Posted by Sparky_Buzzsaw (4919 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

I'm hoping for Elder Scrolls or a similar RPG in a new world - maybe something cyberpunk from them?  Oh damn, that'd be sweet.

#40 Posted by Atomasist (2817 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

I hope its the Elder Scrolls V.

#41 Posted by bellmont42 (264 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

hopefully its a new engine too... oblivions on new vegas? looks terrible after all these years haha

#42 Posted by Hailinel (18091 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

It'll be a remake of Arena, just to mess with everyone.

Not my dreams, but many developers are thinking about mmo games, so... it isn't far-fetched. 
#44 Edited by Soapy86 (2424 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Whatever it is, it WILL NOT be an Elder Scrolls MMO or an MMO of any kind. They have a sister studio specifically for that purpose.

@Jeust said:

Elder Scrolls V yes, but do not give them the idea of an Elder Scrolls online. Turning this into an MMO will literally kill the game. So far single player is the one of the main things going good for this game.

Unfortunately I wouldn't be surprised either. Everyone wants in on the monthly subscription pie.
