Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield Won’t Be Present At E3 2019

We have some terrible news for Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield fans, but neither of the two Bethesda most sought-after games will be present at E3 2019. However, that doesn’t mean that Bethesda is not still working on the development of both Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield. As a matter of fact, Bethesda’s head, Todd Howard, discusses both titles in an interview with IGN.

Elder Scrolls 6 Would Be As Long-Lived As The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim

According to Todd Howard, the games studio, Bethesda, is thinking that Elder Scrolls 6 would be a game that would last for about ten years, at minimum. Accordingly, Elder Scrolls 6 would be an exciting installment in the series, and the company also believes that the release would be the most popular title in the franchise.

In other words, Bethesda plans to produce Elder Scrolls 6 to be as long-lived as The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. “On the one hand, I think it’s good to miss things. I think that makes people come to it with really fresh eyes. When you eventually, eventually see the game and what we have in mind [you’ll] understand the gap more in terms of technology and what we want it to do,” Todd Howard said in the interview with IGN.

Both Bethesda’s Elder Scrolls 6 And Starfield Won’t Be At E3 2019

On the other hand, besides Elder Scrolls 6, Starfield will miss E3 2019, as Bethesda’s Todd Howard revealed. “Starfield will have its own tone in terms of there is so much science-fiction in the same way that Fallout has its own tone in a post-apocalyptic. Elder Scrolls has found its own tone but originally didn’t. It was a very generic fantasy,” Howard said.

Besides, Todd Howard admitted that Starfield had been the first choice to launch after Fallout 4, but the initial plans weren’t as reliable as initially discussed. Accordingly, at the moment, Starfield is in the works at Bethesda’s North American studios. Also, Howard said that any fan must be patient about the release of Starfield. But, the same applies to Elder Scrolls 6 since Starfield is the first game that Bethesda would launch and, afterward, Elder Scrolls 6 would come out.

Elder Scrolls 6 Is Still Under Development After Experiencing Delays

Bethesda, the famous gaming studio, was involved in a lawsuit regarding a trademark. This process was reportedly postponing the work on the upcoming famous Elder Scrolls 6. However, the legal issues have been ultimately solved, and the game is now being developed as scheduled.

The lawsuit was filled because of an apparent copyright issue between the company and a book series regarding Bethesda’s plan to name its next game’s title ‘Redfall.’ The problem could have taken several years to solve, which implied that the game studio might have had to find a new name for the game or work it out somehow. They indeed worked things out, it seems. CriticalHit.net said in a report that the issue was most likely solved with some sort of payment to license the name to be used in the upcoming Elder Scrolls 6 title.

Elder Scrolls 6 Is Still Under Development After Experiencing Delays With A Trademark-Related Lawsuit

​Fans and internet users can hope for a few more insights on the game to be unveiled at the E3 2019. The event is only a few weeks away, and it is expected to be a great spectacle besides the Elder Scrolls. Talking about when fans can expect the next Elder Scrolls title to be released, the general opinion seems to be that it will happen before the launch of the next generation of consoles from Sony and Microsoft. And, of course, this is probably the least pleasant news about the game.

As the majority of gaming lovers know, the company behind The Elder Scrolls 6 is always registering its trademarks for its every game in the series. For instance, Oblivion, Morrowind, and Skyrim are all now Bethesda-registered trademarks. Lots of people have initially been thrilled to read about the Redfall trademark, having no idea that the title was a trilogy before ending up to be a probable title for the next Elder Scrolls game.

The Elder Scrolls 6 Detail You Might Have Not Noticed

The next game in The Elder Scrolls franchise that everyone is expecting to hear about is The Elder Scrolls 6. Sure, we just got a little TES on our mobile phones – The Elder Scrolls: Blades, but we’re all waiting for the sixth game in the series that will come out… eventually.

Right now, there is no official news about the game, but remember that lawsuit over the name Redfall? The one where everyone thought it would be the subtitle and hint the location of the game?

It seems that the game will be based in Hammerfell, and here is why it would make sense.

“The Elder Scrolls VI: Hammerfell”

When Bethesda celebrated the 25th anniversary, they revealed some footage of the games they released in the past, and thanks to this video, we realized that the developer has begun working on The Elder Scrolls 6 and that the location will be Hammerfell, probably focusing on the Red Guards.

You all saw the video and noticed a desert-like landscape, and it can only be Hammerfell, from where the Red Guards appear in Skyrim (which also got featured in the video). Now, connecting the previous “Redfall” issue with Red Guards and Hammerfell, it makes sense. If the lawsuit is not in favor for Bethesda and they cannot use the name Redfall, the next best choice would be Hammerfell, since it will be the location name, just like in Skyrim.

Also, these old images support the theory:

As for an official release date, there isn’t one. Unfortunately, the Elder Scrolls 6 will not make an appearance at E3, but since the production on the game slowly began in 2018, it The Elder Scrolls 6 (Hammerfell?) might be launched by the end of 2020, hopefully before the holidays.

Speculations aside, we all know the NPC that will make it to the next game: the awesome player known as “Skyrim Grandma,” Shirley Curry! Thanks to the petition signed by thousands of people, she will be immortalized in TES6!

Elder Scroll 6 Might Move The Location To Hammerfell

We are all very excited for Elder Scrolls 6, even though not many details are available at the moment. Bethesda is aware of its loyal fanbase, and developers made a video which captured the entire journey of the series, while also including the fans that have always been there. The video was showcased during the 25th Anniversary of the Elder Scrolls series. Accordingly, Elder Scrolls 6 might take place in Hammerfell.

The event was unique because it also offered us some essential details about Elder Scrolls 6. As far as we are concerned, the release of the game is still far away, but the hype has already begun. The even revealed that the upcoming Elder Scrolls game would use motion capture and photogrammetry, which is the new technology for this series.

More than that, some of the art that will be used for landscape was unveiled. This gives us an idea about how the game will look like. While it was definitely interesting to see some of the art, some users believe that there might be some clues in there as well.

Elder Scrolls 6 might take place in the rocky landscapes of Hammerfell

One thing that we can notice in the pictures is the desert landscape. From the looks of it, it appears that Hammerfell will show up in Elder Scrolls 6.

For those who forgot, Hammerfell is a large province in the west of Tamriel. Hammerfell would be an excellent location for the Elder Scrolls 6 as it hasn’t been explored enough in the previous games. More than that, we had a chance to see Hammerfell’s Red Guards, and they had an essential presence in Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim.

In fact, at the E3 2018, we did receive a reveal trailer for the Elder Scrolls 6, and by looking at the rocky landscapes, we have plenty of reasons to believe that the game will be set in Hammerfell.

The Elder Scrolls: Blades – Bethesda Gives Early Access For Player Feedback

This weekend, Bethesda announced that they’re opening the gates for The Elder Scrolls: Blades, allowing more players to get in the Early Access stage of the game. What were the first opinions from major reviewers? Unfortunately for the developer, most of the feedback was negative, all complains were surrounding microtransactions and the chests!

Let’s check out the post on Twitter from The Elder Scrolls:

As you can see, the developers have acknowledged the chest issue and are looking into getting more feedback from the players. If you haven’t tried to play The Elder Scrolls: Blades yet, here’s a few stuff you should know about and why the loot chests are so annoying.

Bethesda Tweaking The Game as We Play It

Player feedback is essential, and it must be taken into consideration. So, those who played The Elder Scrolls: Blades, might have noticed that while the grind is pretty big, and the side quests a bit dull, the game is free-to-play though. Nonetheless, looking at the majority of people writing about the game, the microtransactions are making the game unbearable – and here’s where we talk about the chests you find in dungeons. To open a chest, you have to wait from five seconds (if it’s a wooden chest) to six hours (if it’s a gold chest). Of course, you can skip the waiting with some premium currency. That’s where many players got frustrated.

Skipping past the waiting for chests, the plot is interesting. You’re a former member of the Blades group, and you come home and see everything ablaze. Your goal is to rebuild the entire place on your own. It sure is a lot of work ahead, and we can not wait to see how the story evolves!

For the players that will not invest any money in the game, waiting can be annoying, but let’s admit it, all free to play games with microtransactions add certain limits to the game to make a premium user feel like they’re getting their money’s worth.

How will Bethesda play the premium feel card? Will they tweak the chests and make players pay for other features? Will we see silver lockpicks added in the game for the chest to make them less disappointing?

We can only wait and see what the devs will announce, hopefully taking into consideration the player feedback. Check back here for more news and if you have some thoughts about the game, head over to The Elder Scrolls Twitter page.

The Elder Scrolls: Blades is available on Android an iOS, as an early access. If you haven’t signed up, check out this article to learn how to do it.
