It's probably best that I handle this, the rest will just reply with undue amounts of snark and sarcasm

We've been discussing this a while - most things that have been out more than a day have already been discussed at great length. Currently, though, we're looking at the fact that Game Informer just had a 4-page spread entitled 'Encrypting the Elder Scrolls', which sounds quite promising for a future announcement.

The link to the original article:

To bring you up to speed on what we talked about:

How 'direct sequel' is a mistranslation/doesn't mean it follows on from Oblivion;
How unreliable the source seems (although it does come from EG, which makes it more credible);
How unlikely it is that Bethesda planned this.

So yeah. Welcome to the forums, and do not anger Antibody

ok i can clearly see that you have already ruled it out thanks anyways i know that im addressing the
ministry of the elder scrolls series but you got to stick some hope somewhere in all that regulation

and do not anger Antibody

Make that "anybody".
We are all a bit stressed at this moment , i think.
I can't help thinking what i'm going to do after the game is announced. I mean, ok, what if TESV would be announced at the VGA's, and the feb. issue of GI would actually be what we all are hoping for.......... Then what.
The wait for the game to actually be in the shops will be agonizing. :banghead:

But then you will have enough time on your hands toll beg for new pictures or videos or game mechanic reveals or ai information or... or... or...

OR you could replay previous TES games.

We generally all do have hope, regulation is needed to lessen confusion and keep those hopes from becoming runaway party trains :biggrin:

Yup, would also rule out HL2: ep3...and Portal 2...which I am GREATLY anticipating for playing in February. My wife wants to play co-op with me so she can make me fall into some spikes or something and laugh...Some caring woman she is, haha

Portal 2 already had a cover... it's also been delayed to http://www.joystiq.com/2010/11/18/portal-2-delayed-until-april-18-2011/. Sorry.

I knew it wasn't going to be the cover, sorry, I just ran with half-life and then it became a thought to portal 2 and my wife trying to kill me in game...etc.. haha

EDIT: It's been delayed!! Now that's news to me....awww that svcks...way to ruin my night antibody :swear:

I remember when Portal 2 got a cover. Pretty awesome stuff, it was.

But I just don't understand why DNF would seem like a good idea for a cover for GI. The PC Gamer cover was Duke Nukem...when? Two months ago? It's not like it would be anything new, or that anyone would care.

Antibody? What the hell does that mean??????

Duke Nukem Forever was the cover of PC gamer in Nov 1997... but i'm not sure that's relevant here...

Has anyone posted some excerts from that article anywhere. I have looked around but have not seen any around and I would love to get a better idea of what is in it.
Was there any info indicating that a return to any of those places may be in the works or any unusual mention of anouther provence that could point to a location for the next game

Well, there is a http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com/showthread.php?p=2140123 cover for PC Gamer. I saw the scan before it was removed, and it's definitely legitimate. With that cover, I can't really see any chance of the next GI cover being DNF.

Gah, scroll up when you open the link.

Your guess is as good as mine. :shrug:



The two pages I saw had pretty generic quotes that weren't worth posting here. However, VeryEvilDudeOfDarkness just informed me that there are in fact 2 more pages he didn't send me. I don't know what's in those last two pages yet but I'm rather worried they're going to turn my good feeling about it being so random into a slightly less good one...
