Does this forum opening mean that Bethesda has official stated Elder Scrolls V is coming out and that it WILL be in Skyrim?

Yes, and they released a trailer too.

It was announced at the VGAs. Theres a video and stuff.

NO WAY!!!!!!!!!

I AM SO EXCITED!!

Can someone give me a link to the video?

Lady Nerevar already did.

They've been working on it for years. It's definitely TES V. And it's definitely in Skyrim

When in doubt, Google is your friend: http://j.mp/fOWBK5

Just saw it sorry


AWESOME VIDEO!!
Bethesda has been fooling us for years saying they might make another one or it will be an mmo and never releasing any real info I AM SOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!

Did they say anything about what it will require from a PC or anything?

Beth didn't fool anyone, that was rampant speculation from people who didn't know better :facepalm: . Also, it was Zenimax, not Bethesda, that would be working on a MMO. If anything, the idea that the next game will be Skyrim because the copyright was renewed should have been the biggest indication of the next TES game.

Nothing yet... I wonder when we're going to be getting gameplay trailers and system requirements.

Oh, and I'm shocked at the disparity between Oblivion's trailer and Skyrim's.

I'm also thinking about some of the people who said that Skyrim was just a "cover-up" name or that they wouldn't work on it anymore.

ah! i can't believe this. just as i was starting to get tired of oblivion. i'm so excited. i just wish it wasn't going to take a year to come out

Watched the video again just to see if I got it right

Looks like you will be playing a Dragon slayer and Bethesda has finally brought what Tamriel needed most DRAGONS into this wonderful world

Lets just hope it's not like Oblivion and they went more with Morrowind's supreme questing and adventurous feeling.

Just my point of view

Sorry for the manners of my fellow forumites. We are savage with Skyrim lust and have forgotten our manners. Welcome to the forums, and here: http://i460.photobucket.com/albums/qq328/PaulSouthron/Fishy%20Sticks/fishystickcf7.jpg

Thank you

My vote, much, much closer to 11.11.11 for the system specs. There will be a lot of optimizing between now and then. Then they can determine specs, hopefully more accurately that previous game specs.

No sense shooting themselves in the foot earlier than need be.

P.S.

Indeed eindecker, how rude of me. Welcome.

I hope that they made it like Skyrim should be made; like Skyrim.

Better start saving money now to buy the version on the 360 AND THE pc ALONG WITH A NEW COMPUTER MADE FOR GAMING if I start saving up now I will be ready to enjoy one of the best experiences in gaming next year

I'll make it the very first game I wait until midnight to buy

One difference is that Oblivion's trailer actually showed gameplay footage. Because that was an actual trailer meant to show gameplay and this is just a teaser trailer. Kind of like that Fallout 3 video that showed the radio playing I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire and the person in power armor that turned out to be part of the intro movie and such. I've seen lots of companies do this sort of thing before. I guess it's an effective way to gather interest in your game without actually needing to show any of it.

I'm sure we'll see a video showing actual in-game footage in time, but not yet. My guess is we'll get some real information on the gameplay, story and setting and some screenshots before we'll be able to see the actual game in motion. And system requirements usually don't get released until closer to release. And considering that as of yet, we haven't even gotten a look at the in game graphics, I wouldn't dare to speculate as to what they will be.

Yes, read some threads, look for the trailer on the teaser site at elderscrolls.com and enjoy the discussions.
