Elder Scrolls Wish LIst for the next enstallment.

A huge fan of ESIV, and Shivering Isle, basically played the game religously for a while, and even sold the game and bought it again on a few occasions. Was just wondering what peoples thoughts were on the next installment, ESV. Was wondering what you all think should be included/excluted in the next installment, any info on the ES universe itself, and setting and plot of the next game.

Personally i think the next game should take place on a new contenant, where each territory(Cyrodiil, Elsweyr., Skyrim..) is battling for control and supremacy. This would take place in the near future of the last enstallment. I know there are 3 other continents on the planet which ES takes place on, is a move to one of those to soon? or would that go agianst ES's lore. I know all the provinces are under one banner, centered at the Imperial but would this concept be possible.

If you are really a fan of the Elder Scrolls series you should probably know that OblIVion is the worst game in the series.Imho there are three VERY important thing that need to be done in order to make a game of Morrowind's stature and quality again:

1.NO scale leveling.It's just plain WRONG.

2.No oversimplistic mechanics and scripted situations just to make the game playable by the average 12 years old.The thing that made Morrowind so great is that it had a complex, mature and realistic world.It had teleportation (boats, riders etc.), it had warring families striving to get ahead of their rivals and dungeons with unique findings.

3.No random loot in the dungeons.There is no reason a sane person would go through a three-areas-monster infested cave just to get a loaf o bread!

They should really follow the Fallout 3 recipe - actual dilogues with more choices than "Yes" and "No" would be a good addition as well.

• No more'The world levels with you'
• More spells
• No more diffuculty slider.Just make the game harder as progress
• Better voices
• More weapons
• Better combat
• Better leveling system
• More USEFULL skills
• Better DLC[which should be free but probably will be expensive as heck]

Just want to point out that MW did in fact have levelling. It was just done properly, hence the reason a lot of people think it didn't have any (ie. make it transparent). Also your mention of 'teleportation', Daggerfall used the same fast travel system as Oblivion. I hate the system personally, but MW is actually the exception.

Having said that I LOATHE Oblivion because of what it did to the series. MW is in fact my favourite game, ever. I was completely and utterly immersed in the game world for weeks (months actually). No other game comes close for immersion. So quite simply, Beth need to grow a pair and stop catering to the lowest common denominator. It's too late for that though I'm sure, seeing as how much money OB made. But the reality is that the game really was a sellout.

So for the next one, well obviously they should follow on in the series; that is, move on to the next nation. Personally I'd like to see either Black Marsh or Valenwood (perhaps with a section of Elsweyr as a expansion or something). And bring back the depth, please please PLEASE Bethesda. Something deeper than a urine stain on a blanket would be fantastic. I would hope for a much more MW style game (though with combat that actually, you know, seems at least something like combat - no ES game has done that yet, though OB was a big step up over MW) with the emphasis moved back to exploring and discovering the place yourself. ES games aren't meant to hold your hand. At all.

tl;dr - MW >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> death >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> OB

they have to make it more difficult...limit fast travel....and the journal indicators which tell you exactly where to go for the quest....Morrowind was fun because i wasnt 100% sure i was going the right way. also they have to make more types of armors and weapons ...and customizing armor etc would be a neat way to go.Mwright68

I would like Character Voices I know that's not really Elder Scrolls style but I believe its about time for your created character to be able to talk, also I would like a story where you are more relevant to the story, I mean finding the last member of a royal bloodline isn't really relevant but maybe if you were that member it would be betterStar-Killer

I definitely think the next game should be more like Morrowind, MW was a huge step forward for the ES series, there was so much stuff in it that wasnt just copies of the last thing you did. And you can tell the ES team is learning and paying attention to us because of how well they did with Fallout 3, that game was just about perfect!

If they could make a game like Morrowind but with better combat then that would be awesome! And I second the idea of it taking place on a new continent, it would allow them to be really creative with their environments. And they REALLY need to work on their magic effects! They pretty much all look like little moving colored clouds, boring!

Agreed, the ES vioce actors have an odd distictive vioces that ended up carrying over to Fallout 3. And in ESIV and even shivering Isle you are essentially just an errand boy.

more hos/dating hos/***** hoes =) like fable 2 in that one town with all the hoes i was married to like every girl and i had lots of gold.... that would make the game more enjoyable than the strip club in gta 4 =P jk but that would make the game more enjoyable

Variety

I love oblivion but i cant help but think it lacks variety.

I thought they should have some sort of big game hunting or fishing, there were not nearly enough wild animals in the game. Horse combat would be nice, horses should also go faster. With weapons there should be stalves, lances, haliburtons, and maybe crossbows? I hope spells are more instence, like fables spells we're they encompase everything.

With the leveling system, i agree that the leveling system must be changed, certian quest should be extremely hard to do at certian levels and some enemy's you should be impossible to beat unless equipt properly.

Armor, in oblivion at certian points types of armor become the "norm" and loose all bad assness because every other enemy has them. For instance, the most common armor should be steal, and there will be varouis types armor and how common they are found should go down with how good it is.

Ie. (prices arbitraury)
Leather armor, extremely common, price:5
Chainmail, fairly common, price:10
Iron armor, relativly common common, price;50
Steel armor, common, price;150
Dwarvin, somewhat common, price;350
ebony; relitivly rare, price;700
daedric; extremly rare. price:1500

I complete agree. As far as weopons go, something like the randomly generated loot of Diablo would be great. I can't understand why nobody else does this.

updated engine and a diablo 2 style online play.Large Dungeons that you can "party" with a buncha other people over xboxlive and complete. Theres still a single player and thatll get you through half the game but from there the other half would be online focused. DLC would take the form of new dungeons and storylines linking these dungeons.aZnBoArDeR7688

Has the game been officially announced?Ammo87

The return of the Talking Mud Crab.
