Bethesda proudly presents, The Elder Scrolls: Redfall

[Makabb]

Are they going to revert to the XP leveling system of Arena and Daggerfall instead of the jumping-casting-brewing-forging-enchanting leveling system since Morrowind?

Arena had XP, Daggerfall already had the system of today.

 

[Makabb]

If Bethesda could create Arena today, whole map of Tamriel with overland travel, meaningfull content, normal XP.

Yea that will never happen

Not surprised. Blacks are all the rage now, it makes sense to have a full-black population Elder Scrolls. I expect a lot of nerd rage from the NAZIs online, will be fun!

The Redguards were interesting until that one game with the adoring fan took a heavy shit on everything. But even if they brought back the PGE cultures, they'll just fuck the mechanics in some new way.

My anticipation for Redfall is gone. I'm already bored of the game.

(saw a video on youtube about someone talking about the "awesome" possibilities and events in Redfall, while a boring ESO landscape was scrolling by, and it gave me flashbacks of this boring and generic Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim thingy. Nope, doesn't click with me).

I bet it will be Redguards invading Daggerfall lands.

 

[theSavant]

Yeah... I can imagine the invasion:

Similar like the civil war in Skyrim: for 5 minutes a couple of attacking Redguards spawn (behind stones or trees - always when you're not looking at this direction), and if you don't die during this "invasion", you have defeated the invasion in one place. 16 other places to go. Same soulless formula all over again. Blergh...

I don't think so. The elder scrolls VI will probably be made for next gen consoles. Unlike Skyrim engine which was made for Pentium IV era cpu performance and 512mb unified RAM, next gen consoles are probably around 4 Zen cores @3ghz + 16gb unified ram. This will definitely allow for more characters on screen.

Doesn't Elder Scrolls Online cover the whole map?

 

[Beastro]

I bet it will be Redguards invading mass migrating to Daggerfall lands.

Was there a developer version of the original Arena? Some of the ads/box shots I swear made it look like a co-op to lan-line compatible game.

So no pet name for this yet? Shitfall, nigfall, toddfall?

yes
it's actually pretty decent for the solo play, I picked it up for $5 on steam iirc
the quests are all pretty high quality instead of typical MMO 'go kill 10 boars'
