Or maybe some ports!
Please don't give me hope that a Switch Fallout 3/New Vegas collection is coming. That's just mean.
Or maybe some ports!
FO4 GOTY edition comes out soon, so I always banked on a switch version of that being announced. Although, that does seem like quite a step up from Skyrim Remastered, so I'm not sure...Or maybe some ports!
What's next week?Some online retailer posted fallout 4 goty for Switch and we got a user/insider saying that a Western third party game is going to be announced for Switch very soon
We will see next week I guess
What's next week?
New Vegas PS4/XBOr maybe some ports!
Also, now that I think of it, maybe they will try for Prey or Doom, with the angle that either is like Metroid...would be an interesting development. I could see them trying to get more outta Prey, by releasing it on Switch. Would actually probably be a smart move, too.
Hmm then he meant "this week". 🙂Nintendo Direct rumoured for Wednesday...
DOOM reminded me so much of the original Metroid Prime that I could see it doing quite well on a Nintendo platform.
Add to that it runs better on Vulkan which the Switch supports, and it would be one of the only (if not the only) FPS on the platform when it launches.
The question marks would be storage space, since it's a pretty massive file on PC, and what graphical features would need to be downgraded. The Vulkan compliance would probably help with the latter but the former is becoming a big problem fot Switch games lately.
IIRC, Doom has some people on it from Retro Studios. Wouldn't be too surprising as they are both in Austin, I think. The devs might have some interest in porting Doom, considering there is some contacts there.
So you thought he had an actual concussion from a virtual beating?
I'd love this.Come on fallout 3 and NV remaster collection
No doubtIt's gonna be a mobile game, guys.

On himself
I'm not a freelance coder i've worked with Bethesda for several years. I wont say when I joined for safety but i've done a lot of work to help these franchises even i'm not as high a position as quite a few people i've grown attached to them in my own weird way. I get that must sound kind of odd but its just how I think it legitimately is the best job i've ever had i've just grown tired of all the bullshit secrecy.
I want to be transparent with fans about what I know and i'm confident I wont be fired or found out as i've taken a lot of precautions and I hope once the announcements are made tomorrow and there's a lot of information out about the game to confirm everything i've said I can continue to be as transparent as possible about everything going on at Bethesda.
The two projects before TES VI
You see starfield and the game of thrones project are two fully sized Bethesda games. They aren't just some side project. Its the whole massive world, mod support, etc etc
On TES VI
Quick information about the next Elder Scrolls games.
TESVI is planned to take place on Akavir. Its going to have Bethesdas biggest designed open world yet and will feature an upgraded and highly advanced version of the settlement system from Fallout 4. Basically the plot is you're a prisoner sent on an imperial colonial ship to the continent of Akavir.
The reason the settlement mode will be a thing but even bigger is because you're going to be building colonies on said continent.
The game will feature 4 new races but they're not sure if they want to include all of them as playable. One of the races is Human and is the first asian race in the franchise and is based off the Japanese. The second race is a humanoid monkey race, Third is debated by the team to either be a humanoid snake race or a parasite race, fourth race is a humanoid tiger race.
The reason why TESVII is Todds magnum opus is because he wants TESVII to take place in the entire continent of Tamriel but with current technology he doesn't want to try and build it because he wants the game to feature full destructability, a return to roots in advanced RPG mechanics yet still have more actiony combat, and wants to make the size of the world be more accurate to canon which none of the games post daggerfall have done.
If you want to know what the story is going to be there's some debate but the one the team is leaning towards is the Dwemer have been preparing for an invasion of Tamriel in a pocket dimension and the games "gimmic" other than taking place in all of Tamriel and advanced customization will be the inclusion of flintlock pistols, blunderbusses, etc and steampunk elements because of the Dwemer.
On Starfield
Here's some information about Starfield I posted so I don't get asked the same things over and over.
The game will feature space travel and hub worlds aswell as RNG worlds. Its meant to be a test into more sandboxy/minecraft ish AAA thing but with Bethesda gameplay and still actual designed worlds/quests/etc.
The game features 12 well designed companions similar to the companions in Fallout 4 all of which can be romanced but also has generic companions similar to Skyrims which can be romanced/married aswell but with much more generic dialogue options.
The game will not have a limit on the amount of people you can romance just like Fallout 4 meaning you can have your harem of alien waifus if that is your desire. The game also features alien prostitutes.
The game will actually feature 5 seperate questlines based on which faction you join. 1 questline is reserved for loners if you don't like any of the factions and want to tackle whats going on on your own.
The playable races in the game are all going to be Humanoid. Its going to be a mix of straight up humans themselves, robot like races, and races based off of popular conspiracy esque races aswell as possible precursor races to elder scrolls to further the interconnected universe connection but as I said there is still some debate on whether or not these races will be playable or not.
You will be able to build settlements on any RNG world and in certain locations on designed areas aswell. Its much more advanced than the Fallout 4 system and you will be able to basically build colonies/actual cities/etc they're basically Beta testing ideas for the colony system in TESVI.
The combat is is mostly centered around guns. The customization is a much better version than Fallout 4 but yes there are melee weapons aswell. There are weapons similar to lightsabers but nothing that obvious.
I will not be commenting directly on the story.
The Dialogue options are much more similar to Skyrim than Fallout 4..*
On Release dates
And lastly here's the estimated release date of where we want to release our games but its not set in stone but this is definitely what we're shooting for.
Starfield 2017
Game of Thrones Project 2020
TESVI 2023
Fallout project 2025
TESVII 2030
"So lets get some things straight. I was right about everything including Skyrim VR which they didn't want to show at their conference to take away the light from their show and I was the only person who leaked Skyrim VR in particularly.
Now some of you may be asking. "What happened to Starfield" Well I kept trying to make posts over and over trying to let you guys know they weren't gonna show Starfield because of my leaks to try and discredit them because of how much information they had.
Now what's more likely: I get literally everything right and they don't show off 1 thing the biggest thing to try and discredit a leak that shows their plans up to the 2030 or i'm a liar.
I'm sorry some of you didn't see my warning that they weren't gonna show it at the last minute but there was still some residual effects from Starfield at the show. You may have noticed all the stars and stuff like that around. That was all because of Starfield.
Now i'm not really sure what the fuck is going on down here at Bethesda but after that conference they locked some things down trying to find the leaker and I have no idea when they plan on showing Starfield but they were ready to release the game this year keep that in mind so i'm assuming they're either gonna show announce it a bit later this year or possibly delay it another year and announce it at the video game awards ala Skyrim but this is just pure speculation and I get that's not why you guys came to me.
Sorry guys. Pray I don't get fired and I think I may have been responsible for ruining Bethesdas E3 conference. My bad."
What if Starfield was the game Gerstman was teasing? Also, didn't Howard say he wanted the time between the reveal and release of his next game to be even shorter than Fallout 4's?
It's gonna be Starfield. Atleast according to a leaker who leaked Bethesda's plans for the next 10+ years.

take it with a grain of salt because the leaker was from 4chan but in the past there have been multiple leaks on 4chan already
Vulkan wouldn't really help with performance per se, but rather would allow them to skip the step of translating the renderer to a new proprietary API, which can be quite a lot of work. My thinking is that if Bethesda saw strong initial sales of Switch and wanted to have another title out by the end of the year, Doom would have been a relatively quick port due to the fact that they could use their existing Vulkan renderer as a base.
The main issue with a Doom port would probably be staffing. Although id don't have any of their own titles releasing soon, the new Wolfenstein game is using id Tech, so a lot of the engine team have probably been hard at work on that.
It's gonna be Starfield. Atleast according to a leaker who leaked Bethesda's plans for the next 10+ years.

The only hope I have left for Bethesda is they hired Obsidian to make an actual RPG.
This is a meme comment at this point, right? That partnership ended years ago and I'm pretty sure I've seen comments from both sides that made it clear it was never going to happen again.
Obsidian is better than anything Bethesda has to offer, anyways. They deserve more than being tied down to Bethesda's bullshit.
