04. The First Time in Fallout 4 we hear the Player Speak, so Hopefully that happens for TES6 in witch a Mod could be made to Record our Own Voice In-Game like how we can add our own Music to Skyrim.

I hope the voice/cinematic dialogue thing is configurable, because at this stage, with the great reception it has got I don't see it not featuring in TESVI. I actually REALLY hate the dialogue system in Fallout 4. Even the "hey (insert person name)" when greeting someone pisses me off. The player voice, the dialogue wheel with minimal info and the camera cutting to each persons face to me just breaks my immersion, and makes the game lose the character that New Vegas and FO3 had. I know I am probably in the minority about the character voice, and I know that if worst comes to worst there will be a mod for it, but I do hope it is configurable from the start.

What I would want to see from a 6th entry into the elder scrolls series is:

-More Character choices: In Skyrim the most evil thing you can do is quests for daedric artifacts, and maybe become a vampire. But overall you were the hero of Skyrim whether you liked it or not. I think maybe something like the moral system like in Fallout 3 and New Vegas would be awesome in TESVI. Of course, while it hopefully wouldn't be as cute and charming as Vault Boy popping up in the corner of your screen telling you you're a saint or your the spawn of Satan, a way of deciding if your character is going to be overall good or bad would be a nice addition. While I love the idea of the Stormcloaks vs The Imperials, more specifically how both are just as correct as each other in their motives, more choice could be implemented by adding a Good faction to side with, or an Evil faction to side with (Like what is seen in NV and FO3)

This even expands past just good and evil and touches on what Boombro above me has said about unarmed combat. I would like the idea of being able to have an Unarmed fighter, and that being a viable path. While I'm maybe not so agreeable on the fist weapons, I think that it would be an objectively good decision to make more paths viable to choose from.

-Bugs Squashed: Bethesda are renowned for having bugs (both sometimes funny and interesting) in their games. This has been said with every new edition to the fallout and elder scrolls franchises, and it will be said again here: BETHESDA PLEASE FIX. Just a generally less buggy experience will be good for all.

-More quests, goals, and paths: One of the most popular quest mods for Skyrim adds the ability to become the high king. I guess this point links in nicely with my first point. A player in an RPG should feel able to be able to control his/her own future and plans for the character. I would love to make a modern day Tiber Septim, who is brave and rules over Tamriel with a fair and just hand. Or maybe, the possibility to make a anti-tiber, who rules over Tamriel with an Iron fist and looks to the daedric princes for guidance. Either way, more things for the player to do would be great. Even if it is gated behind a moral system, meaning that if you are not aligned with good moral then you cannot become a leader, or if you do your notoriety or fame will influence some of what happens, like maybe having to do a redemption quest line if you are not good. Bethesda have always done a good job with this aspect, and I'm sure they will do a good job with the next games to come.

-Better AI: Pretty self explanatory.

-Enhanced Followers: With mods like Inigo and Vilja available for Skyrim (and also Vilja for oblivion) the bar as been set VERY high for followers. These people were able to make such intelligent and heart warming characters with minimal funds and resources at their disposal, so I look forward to what a big budget company like Bethesda can do with their own game.

-Looking to the modding community: This is something I HIGHLY recommend, and would assume they probably already have/will. What is popular on The Nexus can be a tell tale sign for what the previous game lacked, and what people want to see in a Bethesda game.

While I did suggest that there is somewhat of a moral system included, I do hope that Bethesda continues to put effort into making the 2 franchises different, both in tone and in some gameplay aspects.
