Will The Elder Scrolls VI Have Online Elements?

Chris Mawson writes: "It’s pretty certain at this point that the next Elder Scrolls game will be landing on the next-gen consoles. In many ways, this is a good thing because it allows for an almost unlimited set of possibilities when it comes to TES VI, one of which includes a huge, robust, and possibly even compelling, online element."

It better not

No multiplayer

No co-op

They can't do it, they can't even do a single player open world game without bugs and glitches on an old engine they should have been able to conquer by now why the hell would people want 100 or so new problems on top. It makes little sense and i really think people don't think about it logically.

They'd waste their time on fixing co-op bugs and most likely will focus on online post launch DLC instead of single player expansions. Seriously no thanks, if they do this especially after Fallout 76 then they haven't learnt a thing.

Personally, I would be fine with two player co-op. I don't want anything more than that. No battle royale. No MMO-lite elements. All I've wanted is to explore these worlds with a friend.

-Foxtrot2339d ago

Thing is co op is not an easy thing to add, you’d need to revamp the entire way this game works

It’s not worth it

Thank God The Elder Scrolls Online already exist otherwise TES VI would be turned into that! However, just because The Elder Scrolls VI is a single player game it doesn't mean it will remain completely single.

For the mobile game Blades Bethesda's have gone on record to say they want to allow PvP battles and possibly dungeon crawling together with friends. There's a few years to go until the big game so they can test out features in this but I definitely think Bethesda want The Elder Scrolls VI to have some multiplayer elements.

Nacho_Z2339d ago

Don't think so, they seem to be keeping the single player games as such and releasing online only games alongside them. With mixed results.

DVAcme2339d ago

It'd better fucking not. I'd like to think that Bethesda learned SOMETHING out of the whole Fallout 76 debacle.

Daeloki2339d ago

They already have ESO which is doing really well, there really is no need for multiplayer. That said, if there was an option for a friend to jump into your game session and control a companion, now that could be interesting.

Todd Howard on 10 years of Fallout 4 and The Elder Scrolls 6: 'We needed a creative reset'

They need to look at Morrowind and see what the progression should have been from there instead of the regression we got with the next 2 games. They weren’t horrible games but they could have been so much more.

-Foxtrot102d ago

Fallout 4 just felt too streamlined and accessible to me, the perk system was not as fun as it was in Fallout 3, not saying Fallout 3 didn't have issues but 4 just felt like a complete step back.

mastershredder102d ago

So the part where you just sold the same games for the last 10 years while you focused on 76 and merch, was not a reset from the "creative" aspect eh? How very Todd of you.

lukasmain102d ago

I bought Fallout 4 (I loved Fallout 3) at launch and I couldn't bring myself to finish it or even get close to finishing it. It was soooo damned boring and bland. I played on a very hard difficulty and I had hundreds of stimpaks. One of the only games I've played for a while and not ended up finishing it. I hated it. Just flat out hated it.

It will come out in another 1000-2000 days or so. I’d rather they remake Morrowind. After they added quest arrows, sprint button, making stats lesser and the big nerfs to spells Elder Scrolls has been too simplified. They could change that with ES6 but I don’t have much faith in modern Bethesda. I would love to be wrong
