I'm kind of cautiously optimistic myself. Not going to jump on any sort of hype train though, Fallout 4 and 76 (moreso 76) left a pretty bad taste in my mouth.

From Morrowind up to Skyrim I loved their shit, now they're kind of on the back burner for me.

    I know nothing about that game and from my Oblivion/Skyrim experience it is never worth playing their games at launch/vanilla anyway. I'm going to wait at least a year if not more before considering playing that shit and that is assuming it is closer to TES than Fallout 4/76.

      Im assuming you won't even bother with it if it has the same type of derivative gameplay Fallout 4 and 76 had? Kind of sums up my feelings, I'm giving them one more chance basically. If this is shit, I guarantee ES6 will probably be as well.

        Even if the core game is good you still have to wait months for the community to literally fix their bugs for free with mods. It is disgusting how Bethesda's games depend on mods to fix their game.

        The amount of free work the community does is probably around millions of dollars worth of development and testing(for each game) if they were all salaried devs working full time.

        And I'd even say that the AAA industry is reach the limits, realism is all they have but that is completely at odds with the GPU market. It is not 2010 anymore, that era was where a few mods could make an average game look fantastic. I guarantee the mods now are going to be 8k+ HD textures like who has the GPU to handle that anyway?
