Responding to a question on how Zenimax Online would handle the challenge of building a game that would serve both MMO fans and traditional Elder Scrolls fans, Firor answered firmly: "This is an MMO. That experience that you're describing [first-person perspective, buying property, traditional skill systems] is Skyrim , and Oblivion, and Morrowind. And those games are still going to be made. This is the MMO version of The Elder Scrolls."While that's notan outright announcement of The Elder Scrolls VI, I feel it's a very strong sign we can rest well assured that even the crew at Zenimax Online doesn't anticipate that theirs will become the one and only Elder Scrolls game in town. In fact, I think it's awesome that Zenimax Online is being so open about exactly what kind of gamer The Elder Scrolls Online is being made for, rather than portraying it as a game that all Elder Scrolls fans should assume is for them. If you don't like MMOs, you will probably not like The Elder Scrolls Online, no matter how much you love Skyrim -- and you can safely ignore it without resenting it for delaying or supplanting your next offline RPG fix.However, even without delays, I wouldn't expect to see The Elder Scrolls VI anytime soon. Remember, nearlypassed between the releases of Oblivion and Skyrim, during which time Bethesda successfully resurrected Fallout. Not counting what will likely be a full year or more of Skyrim DLC development, Bethesda Game Studios ' next project is likely to be either Fallout 4 or something completely new -- perhaps even both -- and projects like those take a good chunk of time.that Bethesda sticks to its recent pattern of releasing a major game roughly every 2.5 years, I'm marking my calendar (and clearing my schedule) for a 2016-ish release.
