Needs to be SP otherwise no sale from me. Forcing MP where its not naturally required is a massive fail whenever they try to shove it down the gamers throat along with microtransactions.

LOOTCRATES!

please say they have finally updated their god awful game engine for this...

Someone sent me this image from the end of last year, dont know how real it is, but if it is then they at the very least got the name of the upcoming game right. (sweary blacked out)

Unfortunately not. For the project after this one. Could be ok if it turns out like new vegas.

Could be good, but not gettin my hopes up

I think the vault will be your multiplayer hub where you can trade upgrade your stuff and form parties like the original guild wars did

 

[MooMoo444]

If it's multiplayer then I'm out

 

[HazardO]

Who says this isn't? Other than those looking for attention.

It would seem odd that they were releasing another SP fallout as their last major title was a SP fallout. The last time we saw two elder scrolls in a row, the second one was an MMO. Also there have been mutterings about fallout online for a long time now. Fingers crossed it's not though.

Why would they not make a new Elder Scrolls game just because the seperate online game is doing rubbish? Skyrim sold 30 million+ copies...

 

[Ayahuasca]

Fallout and ES single player games will always do well so no idea why they'd not develop one because their MMO spin-off was poor.

 

[Smokey Deza]

Haha Bethesda. Get gone with your online crap.

They're too afraid of pulling players away from their online cash cow. Similar to WoW and Warcraft 4. Different genres but same principle.

Hey if that screenshot is true, then I called it already!

 

[agnes]

Oh well... Move on and another AAA chain bites the dust.

Hasn't this been the case for a while though? Its been nearly 7 years since Skyrim.

I think he just ment Fallout

 

[RevBillyG]

The follow up to Interstate 76?

 

[Kainz]

Now there's a name I haven't heard in a long, long time...

 

[Digital X]

Looks convincing to me, plus there's been a lot of leakers on 4chan anyway, especially AC Origins. Given back in 2017 they knew of Fallout 76.. says it all.

Yea, but this set the foundations. It's another spin off project, with little to no input to the main games. With this release, it's incredibly unlikely any news of a new TES game will come this year or next. It's funny, as I bought Skyrim on the switch a couple of months back which means I've owned it on almost every systems its on (bar PS4/3) and all iterations. So I'm one of the mugs that keeps buying it. I was even playing it last night in bed (SLAYING DRAGONS IN BED THOUGH!) but I want another ES game. Badly, on a new engine, nice and pretty. I just don't think it will happen, and if it does, it will be even more dumbed down than Skyrim was.
