I am the worlds biggest daggerfag... If it is high rock, I pray to the lords they do something with that 'warp of the west' shit (or whatever its called).

Seriously.... The conclusion of daggerfall's plot is the most batshit insane nonsense ever conceived in video game history.... Mostly due to the morrowinds writers being lazy as niggers.... But it could lead to some nutty plot ideas for VI... Assuming they could get some writing talent.

Look at the world size, they probably imply how big it will be, F76 is supposed to be 4x times bigger than F4, it will be hueage

It's High Rock. Screenshot this.

Here are my reasons after heavily researching the trailer:

-The woods are too sparse for it to be Valenwood
Out of love for his troops, Tiber Septim changed the lands and did away with those pesky trees.

The visuals finally look state of the art... but after rewatching it, the following comes to my mind:

'The new Elder Scrolls will feature AAA textures and visual fidelity and work on platforms back to PS3'
'Omg, wow, how did you do that?'
'The magic trick was to remove all vegetation'
'Erm... What??'

Todd and his army of bethestards don't know math. In reality, it's probably the size of four of FO4 maps in F76, so 2x times bigger.

So this comes out after Starfield, which itself is a long distance away. Why even bother announcing it? Guess Bethesda felt they had to make an impression after Microsoft's big bonanza.

After most other studios copied their "announce shortly before release" marketing strategy, they have decided to turn it on its head and announce things years early.

It looks like vegetation you'd see at high altitudes, but then you see a sea on the right.

I guess Bethesda finally said "fuck it, let's make our repetitive level design part of the lore!".

They probably expected a lot of people to be pissed off that they only announce multiplayer spinoff in Fallout 4 engine and mobile game. Fans of Skyrim/Fallout 4 probably don't like multiplayer in general so they get 3 seconds of new intro theme and wallpapers.

So I wonder how many "Hand crafted dungeons" we will see in this one. Oh and what about the glorious radiant AI?

See, there are two possibilities. Either they revert the changes they've been making and start pumping the game full of crunchy RPG goodness (not likely), or they'll make it into even more of a hiking simulator. Either way I'm happy because I get mad cabin fever during the long winters.

It will actually be a PC/console port of TES:Blades.

A non-teaser that says nothing about skyrim 2 just to quell the hollering audience.

Announcement of Skyrim was much better with Godd Toward,hooded men,cool trailer etc.
5 million copies pre-ordered off the skyrim trailer, whoever made it deserved a raise.

Here are my reasons after heavily researching the trailer:

-It's got rocks and mountains
-The woods are too sparse for it to be Valenwood
-The mist at the start seems to imply you're leaving Skyrim. If you left Skyrim from the west, you'd see the coastline on your right, just like in the trailer
-Can't be Summerset Isle because they used that for the online game
-The castle on the hill looks like a pretty standard stone castle, like humans would build, not something weird and fancy like elves

Todd has fucked us again.

It was to be expected. I remember Todd saying once what he would like to revisit Daggerfall.

Action cRPG's ... F4, Skyrim, Witcher 3

That has been common practice since Oblivion.

Keep dreaming...

It's gonna be either High Rock or Akavir. The mountains combined with coast suggest former. If it was Akavir, I would expect them to show us all the inner islands.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
I would like it to be High Rock, but the City of Daggerfall is closer to the size of their most recent games, so the Daggerfall region is more likely.

Will they make another remixed version of Morrowind's theme song, and then act like it's a brilliantly original composition?

This teaser is so low-effort it's hilarious. I've seen PS3 games with better graphics. They probably didn't even start preproduction yet if this was the best they could muster.

I wouldn't call this low-effort. It's an in-engine landscape art test to show off what they are aiming for prior to engineering all of the tech for it.

You just said it's low-effort with more words.
