    I've played too much Skyrim. Skyrim is one of the few open world games that doesn't feel empty (See dragon age inquisition).

    Playing with mods just makes the game better.

    The only "weakness" of TES games to me is the lack of strong character relationships. Skyrim's plot was solid, but not great imo. I would love to see them integrate a stronger companion system that would allow you to become more invested in those characters. I always felt my companions in skyrim were more just henchment than integral to the plot.

    Its why the Vilja mod makes skyrim so much better.

    We asked for multiplayer Skyrim - We got ESO.
    We asked for multiplayer Fallout - Now we're getting 76, supposedly something similar to RUST.

    Think you guys at Bethesda could stop trying to be clever and just deliver what players have been asking for for years?

    Sure, more games in either series is great. And I know that there were people interested in an Elder Scrolls MMO. But I also know that a hell of a lot more people just want to be able to play Elder Scrolls and Fallout titles with a friend or two.

    Co-op is not exactly an outlandish request.

    Yeah, but it's not co-op Fallout. It's RUST with a fallout coat of paint, possibly with an actual narrative though I wouldn't hold my breath there.

    Also, anyone asking for multiplayer Skyrim or Fallout was objectively wrong.

    Is multi-player TES in that much of a demand? In what role would that really work? I think the mechanics of TES are suitable for single player roles more so than some games I've played in the past. I mean, realistically, what I'd see come from multi-player is opposing forces. Elf v. Stormcloak, etc. Which that would get tiresome after awhile.

    It takes a brave man to admit that he's wrong. I'm glad you've got that fortitude.

    I don't see why TES couldnt do a coop mode where you both work to accomplish the same goals. There's no reason for a Vs. Mode. Just allow friends to explore the world together.

    This. Very much this.

    An Elder Scrolls VI that combines the overall quality of its predecessor with the companion system of Dragon Age Inquisition (one of the few things about that game I actually really, really liked) could conceivably lift it onto the pantheon of video game royalty.

    However, I get the impression that something like this would be very difficult to accomplish, due to the (probable) number of companions and open-world aspects of the game.

    We shall see, I suppose. This game might still be a couple of years away, who knows what the devs have come up with by them.

    Fallout 76 isn't likely to be anything like the TES/Fallout games (it's not even being developed by the main Bethesda studio), so don't get your hopes up. However, Starfield (the rumored original IP sci-fi game the main studio has been working on since FO4) probably will be.

    I wouldn't say no to some news on Hitman season 2, although I suspect it's a way off for now.

    If Devolver is anything like last year, it'll definitely be wroth catching live.

    This actually seems a lot more likely now, given it's out in November.

    Heard a few rumors Fable 4 might be at E3.

    *fingers crossed*

    Have we learned nothing from the many repetitions of the Molyneux cycle?

    Fable 4 is gonna be a game that looks promising, but gets hilariously over-hyped and over-promised, then ends up being a load of chunky wank, just like every Fable game.

    Ah but Molyneux isn’t in charge this time. Nor is lionhead. (They don’t exist anymore)

    Plus, I liked all the fables. 3 wasn’t as good as 1 and 2 but it was still a very fun game.

    I’d happily buy a 4th one

    I keep watching gog, where it's highly voted; hoping they'll make a version we can play nowadays.

    Not e3 but, but universim is getting close to steam release. Might not be another godus.
