Well, they need the install base too. I don't expect anything before 2015.

not on pc, the modders will just port the same damn sims (2?) hair set theyve been porting to oblivion/fallout/new vegas/skyrim. WIGS R US!

Totally agree on Mr. Howard deserving a pet project. He delivered with Fallout 3 and Skyrim; awesome developer.
Not as long as they don't hire good designers and Todd Howard is in charge.

More Obsidian fallout pls.
Quoted for truth. Obsidian is head and shoulders above Bethesda. You can even make a case for New Vegas being on par with Morrowind.
now that they have expanded to a publishing company they are the premium developers. While everyone else can get shafted, like Human Head studios.
Much better, in my opinion.

This is good news. My only concern with the game being shown at E3 is that this early it could still be a Cross Gen release. Which would absolutely cripple a next gen Elder Scrolls or Fallout game.
The longer it takes, the more sure we can be it is Next Gen exclusive.

no wonder it had bugs... lol
That quest diagram is amazing. I did that quest just a couple of weeks ago, and I had no idea how many branching paths I could have taken. For the record, my exact path isn't even on there. I killed Mortimer immediately after the informant was assassinated without getting him to talk outright about cannibalism.

Meanwhile, Bethesda is dumping Prey 2 in Arkane's lap.

At the end of the day, the more complicated modding (model and animation assets) for CS games rely heavily on two major factors -
1: the base assets, which in bethesda's case are often of such middling quality that modders simply recycle their own work from what they did for previous games
2: the most prominent content creators. As big as the modding community is, you'd be surprised how small the circle of modders that do the major model/animation work is. Since they tend to work on what was popular in the past, you get a lot of recycling/updating of the same "prettified" or "anime" content.
Usually Bethesda games take around 4 years to make. They were still making Skyrim DLC until Feb of this year. Obviously the entire team isn't working on DLC, but now it sounds like everyone is working on the new project. I was hoping to see something at the Spike awards this year, but it sounds like that's not going to happen. Maybe by E3 next year we hear something. If not then we'll have to wait until fall 2014 for an announcement. Either way we probably don't get a new game from Todd Howard's team until Fall of 2015. Damn....
