It was just announced that Bethesda has delayed Brink once again, now it will be released in 2011. What does this have to do with TES? Well not only is Brink due in 2011 but RAGE, Hunted, and possibly DOOM 4. What this translates to is we are screwed. I seriously doubt Bethesda would release these 3 (or 4) games and TES:V in the same year. 2012 :~( God help us!

1: That fits just as well in the speculation thread, really.
2: Huh, it does support the idea that 2011 won't be known as the year of TES V. Not terribly surprising (nor uplifting, but still).

bethesda publishes the games they dont make them, those games being made and delayed have nothing to do with TESV at all!

Yes, Bethesda Game Studios is not developing Brink. ESV would probably come around quite late 2011 or early 2012 anyway.

I know they aren't developing those games but in an interview Bethesda stated that they wanted to publish 3 to 4 titles a year. Obviously 2010 excluded.......

Well, I don't think Brink is very interesting in that list, now that I think of it. I think Bethesda want the release dates for TES V, RAGE, Doom 4 and any Fallout game to be as far from eachother as possible, as they may attract the same audiences (completely baseless guess, really). Brink, on the other hand, is fundamentally different.
But honestly, I still don't really think 2011 will be the year of Skyrim...

I think it's fair to say that if Bethesda already has a large line-up for 2011 its unlikely that we'll see TES V released then as well. However for that matter given that TES V hasn't even been announced it would have been an unlikely 2011 anyway. However I could see Bethesda releasing multiple games for the 2011 holiday season providing they aren't in the same genre - which would likely be the case if they released TES V and another game.


Yep, let's continue this over there.
