My idea for the next tes game

Post » Tue Dec 06, 2011 10:54 am

I think the next tes game should be set in Tamriel have a 70 square mile map and be like a 40gb game for conlsole users this would come in the form of a hard drive I thought it would be unrunable due to lag but then i thought maby you just load whats around you i dont know anything about making games so will someone please tell me if it is possible and if so would bethesda ever do this i think it would take forever to make and so it should cost 250ish $ I asked all my friends and they said they'd pay for something like that.

I keep clicking on posts, everytime eagerly awaiting a well thought out idea. I feel incapable of learning to just let it go.

Yes, it would be lovely, but no, that price tag would never stick. It might be doable if you went back to Daggerfall random generation, but to actually create content for a continent of that size and scope would take many, many, many years to create.. after which they'd have to rebuild it again to keep up with modern hardware in a never ending cycle.

One region at a time is absolutely fine if they craft a good story and content. Its nice you're thinking about these things but generally an idea for a new tes game is never going to work as a "I want everything and everywhere".

This is genius. I like the way this person thinks. A cookie is in order........... :rofl:

Seriously though.... each of the games scale has been getting smaller and smaller (bar skyrim vs oblivion) Do you really think they would ever include the whole of tamriel in the one game any time soon? Sure its been done before, but that was a little different :whistling:

We have a thread called Beyond Skyrim specifically for ideas of the next TES game.

That said, the idea of a game taking place on the entire continent of Tamriel is literally posted here every single week. It is not a unique idea nor is it a realistic idea. They would either have to take like 10 years making the game, or else produce a lot of generic thoughtless content and repeat areas. It would either be quantity over quality or else way too long of a wait to be worth it.

It's a bad idea. Please, we need to let it go and be happy we get a whole province with as much quality behind it as possible.
