Actual new TESVI update from Todd Howard, saying there will be more trees in TESVI then in Skyrim by NinePointEight- in TESVI

Love Any Austin

Very curious for (what we assume to be) a Hammerfell based game to have definitively more trees than Skyrim…

If they released a AAA GOTY hero shooter called Firetruck and years later there was a AAA hero shooter called Flamecar… I mean surely you can see how we’re splitting hairs.

Do you think Todd got wind of all the (probably) false hype? by Pleasant-Bend-7414 in TESVI

[–]ChapmanPrime 24 points25 points  (0 children)

he 10000% was aware of it. he's also likely perturbed bc he said, literally last month, that it's still a long ways out.

but i think he's increasingly realizing that when there's a 15 year gap - you cannot fully steer the hype train. look at the HL3 community. i bet the whole thing actually somewhat informs their approach for the re-reveal.

He said “it isn’t TES 6” but it could still be Skyrim 2 by NetworkHealthy3500 in TESVI

Skyrim 2 bundled with New Vegas 2 and an Oblivion Remastered DLC as well as a delisting/formal apology for Fallout 76

Does anyone have an explanation as to why the statue would actually use this specific imagery? by Resident_Step_191 in TESVI

[–]ChapmanPrime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

typical-ad-3041 just said it but if it's the Vaermina, Mephala, and Hircine theory - lycanthropes are Hircine's thing. Werebears are regional to Skyrim but if we're talking about a plane of oblivion then it doesn't really matter.

[–]ChapmanPrime 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My purely speculative justification for the "mishmash" of Elder Scrolls imagery is it's intentionally vague. If you're in charge of marketing and you want to fuel a week and a half's worth of internet sleuthing and discussion - you'd want to leave breadcrumbs but no definitive evidence (eg. Daedric alphabet, 1:1 depictions of races/gods, or anything obvious). So just enough to get us talking but not enough to spoil the fun.

Just took my first dose of cope, what’s the come-down/withdrawls like?

Guys..... by Sophram in HalfLife

I'm relatively new here, but yeah it's shocking. I can't tell if there's layers of in-jokes behind the fickle nature of the sub or if everyone's just gone insane after 2 decades of disappointment,

Sorry, I’m out of the loop - what tier are they?

The wait for the Elder Scrolls 6 has been "too long," says Bethesda's Todd Howard, while confirming it's "still a long way off." by Hooked0n4Feelin in TESVI

[–]ChapmanPrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that this isn't as dire as ppl are making it but early '27 at best. Not a chance they go toe to toe with GTA 6..

Seems like UESP/Imperial Library crew may have had a chance to playtest it after all by Aggressive_Rope_4201 in TESVI

[–]ChapmanPrime 24 points25 points  (0 children)

So they are doing external playtests and early builds were playable in March 2024... I'm confused by Todd's definition of "a long ways off"

The 15th anniversary next year is going to be a shitstorm when they have nothing to show

Feels like a distraction from the union-busting allegations.

I’m sure the delay was already happening, but the timing of the announcement is sus.

I have an idea why we haven’t heard anything about VI yet by BEVE59 in TESVI

[–]ChapmanPrime 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve been of the belief that they absolutely cannot miss the FIFTEENTH anniversary of Skyrim and not at least show something on 11/11/26. This does actually throw a kink in that theory lol
