Elder Scrolls V official release date 2010

Just got the new elder scrolls novel. It contains the release date of the next game in the series. http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/7428/scan0001mq.jpg.

Yeah, is it just me or does that looked shopped? That text is incredibly clear considering that it's a scan and that it looks off.

They might announce it at GDC. Put probably E3.

I will too. And then I'd only get the PC version because Bethesda has a mod following better than the development team.

Well I guess it's possible, if they use the same engine from Oblivion and Fallout 3. I read somewhere that the hardest part of this generation was that most developers had to create new game engines to prepare for the "next gen". Take the Gears series for example, the 1st was released in 06 and the 2nd in 08. Oblivion was released in 06 so I guess it's possible... right?

This would be so amazing. I started playing Oblivion again since it's been a year or two since my last playthrough, and I love this game so much. I'd hope the story would be more epic than FO3 though.

More of a release year rather than a release date.

Seems a bit soon to me. Until I hear Bethesda announce a date themselves I find it hard to believe. X-ColdRush-X

Looks real enough to me. I hope they change the leveling system but it's a staple of the series so I doubt they will - shame really.

I think the leveling system was horrible in Oblivion, I hope they re-think that sorry idea for the next game.

What do you mean? I thought leveling up your major abilities to level up is a great alternative to the standard "get experience, level up" that's in almost every other RPG.

i cant wait! oblivion was one of my favorite games of all time. 200+ hours invested in that game

Well, suppose now is as good a time as any for me to get through oblivion finally, always started, but never continue through out the entire game. morrowind was my only real and complete adventure in that universe.

i'll need something meaty to fill my time after i finish ME and bofore ME2. also, I'm considering buying FO3 GoTYE soon. looking forward to them.

Enemy's leveling with you...sorta defeated the purpose for leveling up. I think they should take a page from the developers of Borderlands, and go with that type of leveling. One level can make all the difference in that game, I loved getting owned by a boss just ONE level higher than me. They really made it count for something.

Yeah, the stories haven't been very strong. But Bethesda has made up for it by givingus ridiculous amounts of cool stuff to do. When I'm deep in a dungeon shooting fireballs at dark mages' heads, I'm not too worried about how I got there or why I'm doing what I'm doing. I know this is cheesy, but I also tend to use my imagination a lot with the Bethesda games, kinda creating my own stories. Haha, I guess I'm easily amused. But yeah, a greater attention to story would be much appreciated.

Just out of curiosity, what game(s) do you think have a great story.

Yeah, I agree with that too. There really isn't a point to leveling up if everything stays at your level along side you.

I still think Bethesda's games are great as they give you a lot of stuff to do but the main point of why I want an RPG is for the story and I want characters that I can actually enjoy talking to. I hope they can at least give us a good story and a few awesome characters. Also for WRPGs I found Mass Effect and Dragon Age Origins to have excellent stories and great characters. For JRPGs I think that's obvious you just have to look at my signature or avatar. :P

That is why I think Bioware is the only great WRPG developer for the Xbox 360 that is.

I liked Oblivion. I really hope this is true(most likely not) because that would be sweet.
