But what's soon? I remember on the previous thread that someone said Bethesda would be announcing the new game on Wednesday, the 27th. At first I thought it was plausible, but I realized that both Fable 3 and Sims 3 will be coming out on the 26th. So that rumor is out. I don't think that Bethesda would announce it so close to Fable 3. They probably have an agreement with Microsoft covering a situation like that ;)

I've been watching Lets Play Morrowind, and when I compare it to Oblivion I dont see alot of difference. Only that Oblivion has higher detail models and textures, in fact Morrowind looks much better. morrowind has a fully open world with no cells for cities, and better modability. A modded Morrowind looks a hell of alot better than Oblivion ever was.


That's ridiculous that you'd think Morrowind in any way looks better than Oblivion. Even modded, it still doesn't look near as good as medium-graphic setting Oblivion.

Then you've never seen a highly modded Morrowind. I have, and the difference is like night and day. Even I barely believed it.

As for when I believe they'll announce it; Give them a month or two. December does indeed sound pretty good. If Todd is to keep his word, they need to announce it pretty soon, unless they announce it later and released it very quickly.

I saw the "AMAZING morrowind graphics" video, and although it did look good, it wasn't on par with Oblivion. The face/body textures were still low-quality. clunky and outdated compared to oblivion.

Pete Hines already said there was potentially and Elder Scrolls Announcement in 2010, or rather a new Elder Scrolls Title...which means that the game obviously has been delayed or other issues have sprung up. A team of 90 talented individuals working on a massive world with time on there hands, I don't think people realize just how ground breaking the game is going to be if announced.

Paul and Pete are two different people... The gaffe of yore actually said there would BE another TES game in 2010...

BGS will come clean soon enough.

To be fair to Paul, I do remember him saying 'possibly.'

1: upsurd isn't a real word.
2. Absurd doesn't mean anything rational in that context.
3. The only information we want is the title, province, and confirmation of existence, three things inherent in an announcement. Therefore your argument doesn't hold any more water than an old canoe that I put a hole in.


1. We all do spelling errors, so please, don't be so mean.
2. English isn't my maturnal language, so I'm sorry if what I wrote doesn't mean anything "ratonal". I speak 4 different languages, so its alot to remember (expressions and such).
3. My point was, if they wanted to announce it now, without taking the spotlight from NV, they wouldn't give any information.

I appreciate your corrections nonetheless, I'm 15 years old and I want to get a better level of English.

Haha, that's a bit more than possibly in video game context, which leads me to believe that it's been delayed.

Nope, just Interplay. All that copyright stuff at the bottom just means Bethesda/Zenimax is letting them make the game.

LOL, and even that is in legal dispute, who would pay 50 million for an MMO license, anyway were getting off topic but to conclude the thought an article regarding that was recently posted. Seems to me that interplay is just trying to sour Bethesdas name and mooch off something that was unproven at the time '

Lol, figures they wouldn't let you read the whole story unless you have an account. :P

From what I remember about the article, he says something like there's 'possibly another elder scrolls in 2010,' and then the article writers interpret that as him 'penciling' it in.

This is probably why Bethesda doesn't say anything, because all the gaming journalists will completely misinterpret what they say.

Remember when Todd was misinterpreted at QuakeCon '09?
That caused a lot of worrying:

Apparently some folks got a bit upset by reports based on Todd’s talk at QuakeCon last week. An article came out where Todd was quoted as saying we had no plans for a TES V. He did not say that. That was not a direct quote from him. That was someone’s interpretation of what he said. I know, I was there.
At his QuakeCon talk he was asked when TESV is coming out and Todd replied, “Don’t look for a new Elder Scrolls game in the near future.” He also went on to say how much the franchise means to us and that it definitely will continue. He just wasn’t going to provide any timeframe on “when.” This should not be news to anyone that has been paying attention. Both Todd and I have said repeatedly that, of course, we’re going to do another Elder Scrolls game. The last one was enormously popular. So was the one before that. You get the idea. So do we.


Anyways, I'm guessing, like most other people, we are going to see some news very soon since NV is out. My gut tells me this year, but it could also possibly be early next year.

a bit off topic, but just a thought:
wouldn't it be interesting if the new game (hopefully ESV) was announced exactly a year before it was released, even down to the minute, (they change their site at midnight probably).

I know it most likely be released in the next few months, but seeing that they would want to release the game in time for the holiday season, (just for the money), it would have to be announced in the next few weeks for that scenario to work, but i think i would enjoy the exact year wait idea.
