So what? If From is not making another one what's the IP good for?

We don't need a Bloodborne 2, and probably will never get one. Im perfectly fine on From working on new ideas. Sony could make it, but I doubt they want to considering From seems to be the only ones in the business willing to make the kind of game as well as being the only ones so far to make a great one.

BB2 isn't a thing
ES6 isn't and won't be ready for a while
Happy OP?

I think Bethesda is waiting for PS5 and the nextbox. Current hardware is already limiting for their 'skill level', and they aren't only going to release on PC.
I expect PS5 and Nextbox announcement on E3 with the game being part of the release/first year announcement titles. I can only imagine they've already done

Elder Scrolls is probably a thought in the back of Bethesda's collective mind and Bloodborne II was never promised and shouldn't be expected. If it comes, cool. If it doesn't, I hope FROM has something equally great on the horizon.

I thought it was settled by Miyazaki himself that From won't be making any follow-ups to Souls, Bloodborne included, any time soon.

Hmmm I must have missed that. I guess maybe Bloodborne II isn't in development. Thanks for posting that.
They need more brute force power so they can use gamebryo again.

BB2 would be great news, but it seems that From will go with a new IP rather than a BB sequel.

Aww shit I forgot about The Elder Scrolls Online. They can milk that game for years to come and don't even bother with TES6

I'm hoping FROM doesn't make a Bloodborne 2 (at least right away), and instead work on something new. I haven't really been a huge fan of their direct sequels as of late.
I'm sure TES:6 is something they're working on, but it takes a while to make something of that scale. I just hope they ditch the radiant quests (outside of post guild content), bring back interesting spells, and make the quests interesting again. There were so few memorable quests in Skyrim (or at least quests that I have fond memories of).

Is there any rumours on when Bethesda is going to go public with that Starfield game? I seem to remember that people thought they were gonna use last E3 for it

But that won't stop us from having this thread every few weeks
Well, there are two different answers here.
1.) Skyrim was made by the same people (as in literally the same staff members) who made Fallout 4, so there was no one available to make the game before. Bethesda is now a two team studio (as far as non-mobile games go), but one of their games is a new IP in the vein of Elder Scrolls/Fallout, and the other is some kind of online service game, so it will probably be another 2-3 years before they even start developing The Elder Scrolls 6.
2.) I'm not sure From Software is actually making their next dark fantasy game with Sony, and they've implied it's a new brand, so I'm not sure we will ever actually see a Bloodborne 2 the same way we never saw a Demon's Souls 2. Also, Dark Souls sold better than Bloodborne (the first game is more like 5-6 million copies, and the third is by far the fastest selling Souls game ever), so that's why there was more incentive to make sequels there.

They should take as much time as they want with TES6. I don't want another disappointment after Fallout 4.
Bethesda moved onto development for Fallout 4 which took 4 years and it hasn't even been two years since that was released, not to mention there's no rush for them to release VI since milking Skyrim has worked wonders for them.
It's only been two years since Bloodborne as well, so even if a sequel is something that happens, not enough time has passed to warrant a "where the hell is it?!"
Chill, dude.

Doesn't have to be a sequel though. If you read the item descriptions during load screens, you'll sometimes see references being made to characters that didn't appear. Even a story that focuses more on Cainhurst would be very interesting as they became instant fan favorites in the community. They have a lot to work with.

TES4: Oblivion has been released in 2006 so there was a 5 years of pause between TES4 and TES5.
Will we have to wait 10 years after TES5 for TES6?

Hoping they're saving Bloodborne 2 for PlayStation 5.
I'm wishing BB2s gameplay looks at or nearly as good as BB1's CG cutscenes.

Yes, we might even have to wait longer than that.
I don't expect es6 until 2021 or 2022
There will be 2 new game releases by Bethesda Softworks before they Beginn full production of TES VI. Both games will have the same scope or even bigger than their previous titles.
Please forget the roughly 5 year development TES / Fallout cycle. We won't see TES VI for a long time. You can roughly estimate that the next TES is about 10 years away from now which means 2025-2027 at best. Plus the studio hardly expanded which means they currently have a few more than 100 employees.
You better start looking towards ESO which is such a great MMO and will definitely keep me personally entertained as long as the servers will be up.

Bloodborne doesn't have CG cutscenes unless you're talking about the game's intro cinematic at title screen?

I expect another 5 years of Skyrim. Skyrim: PS4 Pro Edition (VR Ready!) and Skyrim: Scorpio Edition will be at the next E3.
yes because that generation of hardware was ridiculously overpowered. and even then skyrim on consoles was supported by duct tape and guerrilla glue
unless your expectations of ES6 are very tapered you need to keep in mind the baseline hardware in this case would be 2013 minimum required specs

ESO 6 is coming but just not any time soon. They are too busy rereleasing Skyrim...I've lost count how many versions there are of it. Hopefully they are spending this time working on a new engine to release it on.
Bloodborne 2...who knows if it'll ever happen. I think Sony/From would be stupid not to do it.
If I could pick 2 it'd be Bloodborne. I enjoyed Skyrim but Bloodborne is just brilliant.

There's several scenes that look way better than the actual game.
The scene when entering cathedral ward for the first time, and after
waking up
kidnapped
Right after that cutscene that games definitely doesn't stay on course for the same quality.

Well, Sony has some studios and I hope they give Studio Japan a chance. I think they deserve it.
Of course only if From has not any intention to make a sequel.

Haha what?
Skyrim is THE RPG being referenced outside video games. It is to 2010's what Diablo was to 1990's.
So you're saying Skyrim is the better RPG over Divinity?
Nobody said anything about quality. The "default" RPG is the mainstream hit that most people end up buying so bringing up a comparatively niche game like Divinity is just bizarre.
Skyrim is among the best selling games of all time, Divinity is nowhere close.
So you're saying Skyrim is the better RPG over Divinity?
That's not the claim being made. Regardless of being better or not, Skyrim is the most widely recognized and generally popular RPG of today. That's what makes it the default RPG.
