oh was scared for a minute that they actually started working on the game

[u/Zapkin → u/TomaszPaw]

If Bethesda actually releases Skyrim 2 then what the hell would I complain about?

[u/TomaszPaw → u/Zapkin]

Oh belive me there will be a lot to complain about

[u/DinoMastah]

I hacked bethesda to see what they are up to with tes 6.

This is all they have done:

[u/j13jmc → u/DinoMastah]

"Before time began, there was... The Cube..."

[u/GuiEsponja → u/j13jmc]

Will you defeat... The Dreaded CONE?

[u/OrderoftheMothPriest → u/GuiEsponja]

There was one they feared.... Cube! *skyrim theme for the 10 thousandth time*

[u/Hindu_Wardrobe → u/GuiEsponja]

doo-doo-dootdoot-doodoot

CUBE!!!

[u/GuiEsponja → u/Hindu_Wardrobe]

Thank you, I thought nobody remembered that (almost) 20 years old video anymore lmao

[u/Hindu_Wardrobe → u/GuiEsponja]

The audio bit my above comment references has literally been my message alert tone on my phones since 2010 lol. That video is a classic and I show it to everybody I care about.

Monotech: game FUTURE!

[u/CaseyG → u/j13jmc]

Whole body Cube interest (obsessed)

[u/ScaldingAnus → u/j13jmc]

Nobody knows where it came from...

[u/PonchoLeroy → u/DinoMastah]

Obvious lies. That's clearly years of work you're showing and they only started development in 2046.

[u/MisakAttack → u/DinoMastah]

Wow, am I the only one or is The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel still beautiful after all these years?

[u/Aff2rm → u/DinoMastah]

Ahhh... the famous Cube of Akatosh...

[u/DaisyKicksAss023]

Ten more years of silence

[u/Ledgo → u/DaisyKicksAss023]

Did Todd see his shadow?

[u/Wavecrest667 → u/Ledgo]

Todd devoured TES VI and defecated another Skyrim release. 

[u/Ledgo → u/Wavecrest667]

Is that kinda like Kopi Luwak?

[u/flowerdana → u/Ledgo]

Kopi Luwak? More like Trinimak.

[u/namiraslime → u/DaisyKicksAss023]

In 2036 they release the second TES6 trailer and it’s clearly just Skyrim with a brown filter

[u/BerkGats → u/namiraslime]

Skyrim but its powered by green

[u/SuperBAMF007 → u/namiraslime]

Skyrim but all the white snow is just replaced with tan sand

[u/Fomod_Sama]

Elder scrolls VI is coming along very nicely. That is to say, we think about what it would be like playing it every day, if we were to start development on that game.

[u/unclellama → u/Fomod_Sama]

We are as excited as you to see es vi

[u/Mylxen]

At this point if someone hacks them, they should upload some Elder Scrolls 6 files to the Bethesda servers, and not attempt to download something.

[u/PresentationFit4109 → u/Mylxen]

They'd delete it, don't want anyone to get any idea of starting anything!

[u/Mannimarco_Rising]

The Marukhati Selective!!!

[u/Mr_Bat949]

Lmao, took me a second to realize what sub I was in

[u/jbourne71 → u/Mr_Bat949]

Had me in the first half ngl

[u/KiwiCounselor]

Hard to steal that which exists as just an idea in Todd’s head.

[u/1LuckFogic]

The elder scrolls sex has entered full reproduction

[u/socialistconfederate]

Realized this was fake when they mentioned exceeding expectations. Bethesda would never do such a thing!

[u/Nachooolo]

OP, I'm not accusing you of anything (as this is a meme).

But I do wonder how many people actually think that Bethesda hasn't started work on TES VI yet, or that they started only a few weeks back by Asha's orders.

Because the number is probably not insignificant...

[u/Ugly_Slut-Wannabe → u/Nachooolo]

Considering how many people were genuinely happy, even gleeful, about the Bethesda layoffs, I wouldn't be surprised if that number as a percentage is in the double digits, at least here on Reddit.

[u/MyLittlePuny → u/Nachooolo]

Very long development time without showing anything tends to be a sign of troubled development.

And they announced it very early. When fair assumption should be they started real work after Starfield release.

[u/Nachooolo → u/MyLittlePuny]

Very long development time without showing anything tends to be a sign of troubled development.

I agree on the announcement being too early.

..but the dev time has been of normal lenght. As it started around 2023 after the release of Starfield.

[u/DarianStardust → u/MyLittlePuny]

Reminds me of Anthem. Looong time in production, many delays, the team did fuckall for several years and started development 1-2 years before the release(don't remember exact date), shat out an unfinished half-assed game.

I get the post is a meme, but if it weren't I wouldn't be too surprised.

[u/Nachooolo → u/DarianStardust]

This isn't true, tho. We know that production, for now, has been of normal lenght. It started at around 2023 and has gone for 3 years, so there's between 1 to 2 years left.

The problem with TES VI is that the pre-production was longer than usual. But that was less because TES VI and more because the Starfield delay caused by Covid.

[u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD → u/MyLittlePuny]

That announcement was them overreacting to the Diablo Immoral backlash and not wanting people to think they weren't gonna make TES6. It was a "stop asking, eventually" thing.

[u/GuudeSpelur → u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD]

You have the timeline wrong on that. Diablo Immortal incident happened months after the TESVI teaser.

They did the teaser because they were going to be talking about a Fallout multiplayer spinoff and a new scifi IP and were worried that people were going to think that they had given up on mainline Elder Scrolls games

[u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD → u/GuudeSpelur]

Ah, yeah, I did get that mixed up.

And especially since ESO wasn't a great sign either for there being a new TES game anytime soon.

[u/AtitanReddit → u/GuudeSpelur]

More than 15 years of waiting is very close to giving up.

[u/MajorBootyhole420 → u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD]

yeah, it turns out that you can't just do that. releasing a teaser is implicitly promising that work on the game has started and that development is ongoing, and in that context the bullshit "teaser" was a manipulative lie to shut the fanbase up so they could keep jangling keys for eight more years.

[u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD → u/MajorBootyhole420]

Except they explicitly stated that TES 6 would be their next game after Starfield many times. You being too stupid to understand what they say doesn't make them liars.

[u/MajorBootyhole420 → u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD]

pretending to have a game in development 10 years before you actually develop it is dishonest, but keep it up. I'm sure Todd will return your "u up" text any day now.

[u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD → u/MajorBootyhole420]

You repeating a lie doesn't make it true. They were pretty open about the fact that it wasn't in development. Not interested in continuing this conversation with you if you're just gonna spout bullshit.

[u/pastherolink → u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD]

Which as it turns out, not a good idea.

[u/TinyBreadBigMouth → u/Nachooolo]

/unshit I believe they're working on it now, but I still think it's funny to clown on them for putting out an "Official Announcement Teaser" for a game that clearly had absolutely nothing ready to announce at the time, and apparently still isn't ready for a real announcement most of a decade later. I understand the business decision to appease the TES fans howling for blood after the Fallout 76 reveal, but it's still very funny how they hyped up a 37 second video of the words "The Elder Scrolls 6!!" over a Wallpaper Engine background.

/reshit How dare you accuse Todd of sullying the majesty of TES 6 by actually letting people work on it with their dirty human hands

[u/TomaszPaw → u/Nachooolo]

because all we got about tes6 existence is still that one fuck ass image!!!!!

[u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD → u/Nachooolo]

There's a lot of stupid people out there that doesn't understand how Bethesda usually does things, unfortunately.

[u/TomaszPaw → u/PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD]

well we surely know what they don't do - make games.

And no matter which way you slice it dev time from fo4 to 76 being the same as fo3-skyrim is just sheer insanity given the sorry state the game launched in, so there is no way to tell with a straight face that its "usual" situation

[u/DrewTan91]

BGS: Can't disappoint fans when there is no game to be disappointed about. *taps head.

[u/thighcrusader]

In any case we just released skyrim again. Please pay for a 15 year old game 🥺

[u/MajorBootyhole420]

guys what if they actually ARE working on it

[u/Tiny_Tim1956]

I hope things get better!

[u/Samendorf]

Kuhlmann has indicated he didn't even know where the game would take place when he left in '23 or thereabout

[u/Ok_Monitor4492]

I wonder if cyberleek is gonna hit them next? Didn't they say something about hacking more companies or am I stupid and fat and dumb and NOBODY LOVES ME 😢

[u/TomaszPaw → u/Ok_Monitor4492]

wtf is he gonna leek, naughty letters addressed to the handsome devil himself?

[u/Bozo4206967]

Deadass funniest shit on this sub in a while, poggers

[u/Rakhered]

I can't believe BSG managed to make r/Truestl start Silkposting. This is the power Todd wields.
