    Here’s my uninspired lame advise that will never happen: ZeniMax should close down Bethesda. Then they should contract the Crimson Dessert guys and hire a good writer to make the next Elder Scrolls game. Sure it‘s more expensive than doing it in house and it would take years but I think it‘s what players would want.

      nobody wants that they want skyrim again with a new story and world. why did fallout 4 get mixed reactions? not skyrim enough. why did starfield get mixed reactions? not skyrim enough.

      and the people who dont want skyrim again just want morrowind again

        I genuinely don‘t think Elder Scrolls fans would actually want just another Skyrim. They‘ve had over a dozen releases of that already. The devs definitely have to be better.

      Warhorse is working on a Lord of the Rings game. That’s probably more of what we want out of a new Elder Scrolls than the actual next Elder Scrolls.

        I have to say that Kingdom Come Deliverance wasn‘t for me. Too realistic. Too tedious. That‘s probably what makes it great for the fans but I do not think Elder Scrolls fans want inconvenience just because it‘s realistic. They‘re not the same fan base.

          Somehow I’ll bet they ditch realism for a Lord of the Rings game, particularly on default difficulty, and keep the very clear Elder Scrolls trappings that inspired their systems design.
