As an Oblivion fan, I'll probably hate Elder Scrolls V just as much as Morrowind fans commonly hate Oblivion. I suspect that some people are fans of the Elder Scrolls as a whole, but many are only fans of 1 specific game - this explains the hate against Oblivion for being too unlike Morrowind, and vice versa. As a fan of Oblivion but not of Morrowind, I'm worried about Elder Scrolls 5 not matching my tastes.
That said, though: Elder Scrolls 5 is certainly more likely than Fallout 4 in the near future, but it's not a lock. Fallout 4 might be coming along soon, but they haven't put out an Elder Scrolls game in 4 years.
I spoke to Bethesda's head of marketing in person, and he mentioned this under-wraps project of theirs. I asked him, "It's Elder Scrolls 5, isn't it?" Sadly, my ploy failed to cause him to spill the beans. Law and Order fails me yet again.

I don't disagree that Raven Rock was awesome.PoisonUnagi said:
But not particularly for its story. And it had little significance for the outside world. In fact, it fell right apart by the time of the Oblivion Crisis.
So Bloodmoon was a good expansion (minus the blander design that was a prelude to TES IV), but the setting doesn't need revisiting. Some nice in-game books about the Skaal's uprising are definitely in order, however.

It's just been edited around a bit, looks like GIMP.
Word to the wise, start with Morrowind. It gives the best first impression.Corkydog said:

Yeah, but lighting engines sure don't like all the snow.gof22 said:
On the one hand the world looks flat and barren because of the impossibility or making the ground itself a deforming object, while the vegetation you do have is either coniferous or taxing on your PC because of the lack of leaves.
But luckily Skyrim has temperate summers anyway.
Me too, I found the ranged combat very frustrating: lots of slow moving spells & arrows and a lot of erratically moving enemies. I still used spells but mostly for healing and summoning also. I would say Oblivion actually needed a vats/fats type function more than Fallout did.iblis666 said:
What would be great is if they took note of one of the brilliant things Obsidian did with New Vegas and make the main quest missions different depending on how many assassin brotherhood, wizard, or whatever side quests you do.
Sorry. Accidental double post.
To not waste the space:
I think they should at least improve the archery enough that you don't HAVE to use a vats/fats system and there should be a few (lightning?) spells, that don't move like a bowling ball either.

Not that this would ever be done by Bethesda.. Or anyone really but a Fallout 2 remake for DS/PSP.
Personally I think it'd work on both and I'm probably going to have alot of people disagreeing with me on this but eh.

I thought that, Minecraft has maps that can generate to multiple times the Earth's surface, nevermind just Britain, like Hammerfell's map.Corkydog said:
I never really liked Fallout 3, I have it, but it had the same feel of oblivion to me, which didn't work with guns, so Fallout to me just wasn't good at all.
It's still much better than Oblivion's. As long as people realise that you have to not be so tired you're in danger of collapsing to hit an opponent, they should be good <.<maturin said:
We've just had a new Fallout game released so I'd prefer it if they made another Elder Scrolls game first. Fallout fans have New Vegas to play with now and Fallout online to look forward to, give TES fans something.
It will be an Elder Scrolls game, hopefully with a new engine.
That way we can have our sword, spell and bow weilding fun amongst the bugged out game world. Then by the time they make Fallout IV they will have all the bugs fixed.
And I'll ride a flaming flying pig named Michel to the moon to have sex with Elvis the Space Pope.
