It will be shit but, for all the talk, you know a good portion of the Codex is going to play it. Then bitch about the lore, since lore is pretty much the only thing that has been carrying the series since Morrowind. Afterward, we'll see if Obsidian is tasked with developing "Knights of Skyrim". Still, there needs to be a new game to unanimously hate around here, and I'm expecting tough competition from Dragon Age 2 in that respect, while Mass Effect 3 will be the dark horse in this race. 2011 is shaping up to be an interesting year.

LOL it's always the same ugly dorks who fantasize like hell over RPGs as an alter ego and a world where they're a super respected bad-ass.

Todd makes the game the way it is because he literally makes the kind of world he wishes he could live in.

Remember the Oblivion making of where he was like: "Ha-HA! Take that you damn jocks who made fun of me in high school!"

I think maybe the worst thing is that you go out looking for these people to bring back for our amusement. What in the fuck is wrong with you?

I like that trailer. The music is p. cool, and it's about Nords which I like, but it's still Bethesda doing it which means there'll be inevitable lore-rape and inanity. I do at least hope it'll be an improvement over FO3, like FO3 was an improvement over Oblivion.

What's the chance they'll ditch the old ES dialogue system for actual dialogue trees?

I don't know why people don't pick on JarlFrank more for him being a long-haired fantasy-loving tard (not to mention a faggot). This was the worst post in the entire thread and you should feel ashamed. I remember using a Morrowind mod that he recommended and it was pure shit : I thought he was elite but he just has some sort of weird teenaged obsession with the beautiful plains of gemania or other inane shit (like I give a shit about your sensibilities). I can't stand this lack of ragean it makes me

Beth should have handed the entire franchise over to Obsidian and just gone into making pure action titles.

Which Morrowind mod was that?

And yeah, it's the positive memories of Morrowind and Daggerfall that make me have hope against all odds. Morrowind is as special to me as Fallout for most people here and I just want to believe that TES series isn't completely lost to retardation.

I want to believe. :(

Maybe they'll be smart enough to learn that gamers want complexity and less streamlining, in light of how much better New Vegas is over FO3. They're like retarded dogs, you have to keep hitting them until they get the point. They don't seem to understand that when players are like "This game is too simple, you simplified it too much you simple fucks :x " that they really mean it.

The world isn't going to fucking end if you die in combat or you need to carry a fucking waterskin around for the sake of immersion.

The biggest problem is Todd HEY MAN YOU CAN EXPLODE HEADS IN FO3 AND THAT'S WHAT FALLOUT WAS ALL ABOUT AMIRITE AMIRITE?!?! GUISE?!? Howard thinks he understands what the RPG crowd wants. He doesn't have a fucking clue.

cant be something else then a good game dev if you can code on Amstrad and Amiga, and Bethesda let him go for Todd Howard.

Todd knows what the RPG crowd wants; Todd just doesn't care.

Todd is marketing to people who think they want in on the RPG genre, but, really, they don't know what they don't know. He's a sneaky, slimy, little bastard who's manipulating casual gamers into buying his games by dressing them up as something "new", thus hip. "New" in the sense that he brought the first (?) RPG to the casual market that was extremely popular across all formats, except it was not an RPG... it was a body of lies.

We're doomed.

I'm in the same crowd as many of you, vainly hoping for incline or greatness due to my fond memories of Daggerfall and Morrowind, but... no. I must embrace the bitterness and let it consume me. It may lend strength and clarity of purpose.

I know how you feel, SB. Whenever I try to rage over JF or racofer for being complete fuckups with no taste, everyone just says I'm a newfag. I think I'll go drown my sorrows by playing Arcanum
