I highly doubt they started on TES 6,
straight after TES 5 (Skyrim) released (2011).

I think it's taking so long,
since they procrastinated working on it for so long...

They where mostly focussed on milking TES through Online and re-releasing TES 5 an obscene amount of times, now they even re-released TES 4 (Oblivion), instead of putting in the time/effort/money for creating a new game.

Working on Starfield also took a chunk of their time, however that game is badly received. What scares me is that on the TES 6 wiki page, they mention that it will be written in the same Creation Engine 2 as Starfield used.

The wiki does mention it has been in pre-production since 2018, which still seems doubtful to me.

It’s taking so long because:

• game development is hard
• ES6 is enormous in scope
• they’ve been working on other things (Starfield, ESO) at the same time

We won’t know specifics unless we get a postmortem or a Bethesda dev drops by to spill the tea, but ultimately it boils down to those factors.

Guessing it didn't enter full production until after Starfield, which itself had a delayed launch. Bethesda has a lot of money, especially under Microsoft, but their core studio (BGS) is still a comparatively small team, likely no A-team/B-team development pipeline.

I'm guessing development of the game is well underway at this point, maybe aiming for a release in the next couple of years. But development is always a dice roll of whether a project goes smoothly and launches on time or if speedbumps might necessitate changes in plans.

Despite the "trailer" for Elder Scrolls 6 that is already 8 years old at this point, Bethesda typically does not start hyping their projects until they're fairly close to completion (e.g. Fallout 4, first trailer in June 2015, release in November 2015). Starfield was intended to be similar, with its first real trailer (something more than just a title card) in 2021 and a planned release in 2022, though the release was delayed a year by Microsoft for polishing, which I am guessing it desperately needed.

The Elder Scrolls 6 title card reveal, from that same showcase where Starfield got its token title card reveal, was more of a statement of commitment that the series wasn't dead, not necessarily to show off the results of a project in process. So I'd anticipate that when we do actually see some tangible material from Elder Scrolls 6, its release date will not be too far off. You know, barring delays. But that's maybe the only optimistic thing I can say about the game right now.

Given the unreasonably large amount of money that Skyrim brought in I guess Todd is planning something really expensive and large-scale. These things do take time, and they've been busy doing other things. The disaster that was Fallout 76 for example wasn't anywhere near finished until well after its official release date, and then Starfield was just a couple of years ago. Maybe they can learn from the past?

Unfortunately I think the odds are against TES6 being as good as we'd hope for. Even before the acquisition, most of the people who made The Elder Scrolls what it was have long since left the company. But you never know, I guess. Maybe we'll get super lucky and it will turn out like Skyrim: Huge potential, fundamentally flawed but fixable by modders.

"überraschende US-Aktion"

Es war nicht 'überraschend', es war keine "US-Aktion", es war ein Bruch des Völkerrechts, ein Angriffskrieg, eine Entführung und wenn Gewalt angewendet wurde, war es Terror.

Am Neusprech muss die Tagesschau noch wirklich arbeiten. Aktuell ist das noch viel zu plump.

Wird sich #Merz innerhalb von Tagen, Wochen oder doch wieder nicht äußern?

Wird er stabile Haltung zum Völkerrecht zeigen oder doch eher genau hinschauen, wie erfolgreich autokratische Strategien in westlichen Demokratien sein können?

Oder wird er einfach seine Schwäche schulterzuckend zur europäischen machen?

"Russland hat den Angriff der USA auf Venezuela verurteilt. Es handele sich um einen "Akt der bewaffneten Aggression" gegen das südamerikanische Land, teilte das russische Außenministerium auf seinem Telegram-Kanal mit. "Venezuela muss das Recht haben, sein eigenes Schicksal ohne jede zerstörerische, geschweige denn militärische Intervention von außen zu bestimmen", hieß es."

Schön gesagt.

Ob sie es wohl selbst merken?

Die oberste #Orange des #Schurkenstaat​s #USA hat den mutmaßlich nicht demokratisch legitimierten Präsidenten der Autokratie #Venezuela entführen lassen, um an deren #Ölvorräte zu gelangen und nebenbei eine ziemlich große #Nebelkerze für das Inland zu zünden.

Und wir haben Ursel, Fritze und Manne, sich für uns einzusetzen.

Mir scheint, wir sind ziemlich am Arsch.

Well, it's a start. Trump does not like Maduro, equal right's and so forth. So he has captured Maduro and his wife.

They will now face some bogus legal claims in the US, which Trump will use to install some rightwing ruler in Venezuela, who understands, that venezuelas oil belong to USA, and wealth is not supposed to be shared with the poor.

Canada has redirected 23% of it's traditional oil export to USA to EU instead in 2025, which is only a beginning. So Trump needs a nice oil country like Venezuela to redirect it's oil to USA at a bargain price.

Trump is the one, that should stand trial in Venezuela in a rule-based world order.

Of course, Machado is the rightful ruler of Venezuela, but this does not excuse the american assaults on the country.
