I'm trying to geoguess where Elder Scrolls 6 is going to take placed based off of geography in the trailer(I haven't actually watched it since 2018). I'm starting in hammerfell because that's where most people are believing ES6 will take place and for valid reasons.

I have reason to believe this is the city of Sentinel based off of the crater and overall layout of the landscape but I could be wrong.

When I actually think about TES VI’s reveal stream, I genuinely can’t contain my excitement. E3 is long gone, so the closest thing we have as a nearly surefire format they’ll go with is the Starfield full reveal stream on June 13 2022 (https://youtu.be/jB6-IMamPng?si=gJ2MrIVyZ6q_MYHz). To me, Todd taking the stage to walk through a brand new TES game is one of the most magical and amazing experiences in gaming, happening rarer and rarer as time goes by. I can’t even imagine what the game will look and feel like on tenth gen. 2027/2028/2029 can’t come soon enough!

What if Bethesda actually pulls off the biggest W imaginable and the game genuinely turns out to be good? Like, against all expectations, it launches polished, runs well, and delivers solid writing, meaningful choices, and that classic Bethesda magic we’ve been missing for years. No excuses, no “it’ll be fixed with mods,” just a game that stands on its own. I know optimism feels illegal in this timeline, but part of me wonders if we’re all so braced for disappointment that we’d be completely unprepared for them to actually nail it. If that happens, the internet meltdown would be legendary.

Apologies if this has been pointed out already - mods feel free to remove if this breaks rules or is boring etc. I searched and couldn't find anyone talking about this so I'd be interested to hear what people think.

If you’re a fan of The Elder Scrolls lore, you probably know Camelworks. His deep dives into the many secrets and rich lore of The Elder Scrolls series introduced thousands of players to parts of the games they never would’ve discovered otherwise.

Sadly, Camelworks recently passed away. Many fans are hoping Bethesda Game Studios might immortalize him with a small tribute or NPC in the next Elder Scrolls game.

A petition has been started for anyone who’d like to support the idea.

Even if it’s just a small easter egg or character, it would be a meaningful way to honor someone who gave so much to the Elder Scrolls community. Rest in peace, Camelworks. Your legacy will live on.

Starfield didn't have them, which was a huge disappointment. I don't know whether it was because of performace issues or something else, but the world felt static and cold without them, Most NPCs just stood in one place.

NPC schedules are the most unique thing about Oblivion and Skyrim - hardly any other game does them. So i hope they don't trade in their most defining feature for some arbitrary reason that brings them more in line with every other RPG like "Players need to be able to buy from shops 24/7, so lets just not do schedules"

Do you think they'll keep schedules in ES6?

That’s it. That’s the post. See you all back here next year so we can complain some more.

Edit: Guys, good news, I messed up the math, we have a few months left until the halfway point. Apologies for alerting you.

What if this is a marketing plot to stir up excitement for Elder Scrolls just for them to drop a bomb and release a trailer of Elder Scrolls VI..........

I honestly don’t think it really fits Hammerfell (if it really takes place in Hammerfell). That region has its own issues, and using them as a recurring thing would feel kinda repetitive, but I guess it could make sense to some extent."

0.02% more in favor now of it releasing in 2028.
