Weekend Hot Topic, part 2: Most anticipated video games – Metro.co.uk


Out of a list of games including Watch Dogs Legion, Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Cyberpunk 2077, etc. it’s The Elder Scrolls VI which ultimately I can’t wait for. Ever since stepping into Oblivion’s world of Tamriel and experiencing its fantastical landscapes, I could just not get enough of this magical place set in a Lord of the Rings type of environment.

Adding up the game time in Skyrim and Oblivion together the hours seem endless but well spent. Basically, I feel that these games deliver in pretty much every area you can imagine for gamers who lived on fantasy books and films growing up. It’s like living a dream that keeps on giving and so far, despite many hours involved in the games environment and lore, I am not done with them yet.

Overall, I am curious as to what advancements have been made since Skyrim which seems an awfully long time ago now. Since then we have had The Witcher 3, Metro Exodus, and Zelda: Breath Of The Wild and the bar has been raised very high for open world games. What have Bethesda learned and have any fundamental mistakes been corrected along the way? Will combat have to be changed a lot to meet modern day standards? The graphical and artwork styles will have to be raised again with even more interaction with all types of varying environmental conditions.

To me it seems like a very, very high bar. Hearthfire was an idea which sort of failed or was just not made grand enough, as it was a difficult gaming mechanic to implement. But now in a new Elder Scrolls game it could be developed into a better part and use for the main game. Towns or cities could be created, controlled and entwined intrinsically into the storyline.

Bethesda really do have to make up some lost ground after some less than successful titles (for some critics and gamers anyway). I believe that Bethesda are more than capable of succeeding with Todd Howard at the helm, who does at least listen to us gamers and can take criticism. I say good luck to them and fingers crossed it will be a great gaming moment when it’s released, with very favourable scores from most of the reviewers.

GC: Unlike those other games The Elder Scrolls VI is many years away from release, or even from being seen in anything more than a teaser.
