During a panel at PAX East, Bethesda showcased a celebratory video providing a look at the past and future of The Elder Scrolls franchise.
Skyrim might be a modern day classic with a famously huge open world, but it still neglected to put any content on one huge part of its map.
But then Why play once I'm perked up? I want some horizontal progression. I feel like im playing just to get stronger. Once I'm as strong as possible what is there left?
Ratchet and Clank weapons are a perfect example of the best kind of progression.
Why play when you’re perked up? Brother there is no limit to leveling and perking in Skyrim. You’re not even really making much sense if you’re arguing about RPGs to be honest.
"But then Why play once I'm perked up?"
Wait I thought your problem with perks was feeling weak at the start? But to answer your question, using Skyrim as an example, by the time I've leveled up to the point of feeling powerful, I still have tons of quests and sidequests to deal with, and enemies tend to scale with your level, so it's not a matter of being overpowered either. Honestly it just sounds like you're complaining for the sake of complaining.
So you want the 8-10 second sprint button so you get tired but you can kill god sand dragons. I can run for 20 minutes easily and I’m old. It makes no sense. You always start out weak in RPGs.
Nah, that had me swimming laps in lakes and ponds trying to level up. Like A LOT. I never want to have to do that again.
I know it's a dumb reason but i really can't play Skyrim because of the lack of speed and acrobat. The sprint button and jumping restrictions killed it for me.
yeah no, in 99% of cases underwater combat is just bad/worse than regular combat, I'm good without it.
Mario Bros water levels are what immediately think about when talking about underwater combat.
It will be developed by AI so there will be stuff all over the map. I'm not sure it will be fun, but there will be stuff.
nah it was really good and that after 13 years people still play and create mods for it is a testament to that.
Oblivion's Shivering Isles is arguably the best DLC for any RPG and is still enjoyable after more than 17 years.
I was just thinking about that a few weeks ago. How amazing Shivering Isles was... Felt like a whole new world.
Witcher 3 Blood and Wine is the best dlc for any rpg....not even arguably. It is the best.
Agree that Blood and Wine is an exceptional DLC cut from the same quality cloth of the main game. Shivering Isles was that over a decade ago, and was truly a unique setting from the rest of the game. Possibly one of the last major old school "expansion" packs.
Terrific expansion. A starkly different locale with new plants, wildlife, towns, weapons, quests, Daedra variations including a remarkable madman deity presiding over that beautiful freak show.
Bethesda may never make anything that good again and that saddens me.
ScreenRant's Stephen Tang writes, "The Elder Scrolls 6 won't be releasing for a while, and in the meantime, the modding community has been making Skyrim into a next-gen game."
That’s just laughable to me. I think they’ve squeezed all they can out of an 12 year old game
"Easily" because they see mods, says the gamer. To heck with licensing, terms agreements conditions, etc. all you need to do is belive in mods. Yeah, so real superficial BS yo.
Do people not want to play a new game? Like, I’d rather see 6 than just a prettier version of a game we’ve been playing since the 360/PS3 gen…
Yes please. Did pretty much everything there was to do in this game. Took a very long time and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Skyrim is one of my all-time favorites, but I would prefer a new experience.
I don't want a next-gen version of a game I've already played to death. Skyrim was a great game, but I'm over it.
Gamers are in for a treat if it’s true.
Now if only they didn’t use the same engine for future games...
The need to build a brand new engine Fallout 4 made the Creation engine seem old and outdated.
New game engine or I won't care about anything else they release.
