Ожидание новой части франшизы TES продолжается.
The Elder Scrolls VI was announced several years ago. In the years since, Bethesda has already managed to release a project for the new Starfield franchise, but TES has not yet been released.
Recently, Game Informer journalists spoke with key Bethesda employees for a Fallout article, but took the opportunity to ask about the development of TES VI.
Emil Pagliarulo (design director) believes that it is better to take the time to refine the game than to rush the release and offer an unfinished project:
I can say that the work is underway! It's funny, because we don't put the same pressure on ourselves regarding release dates as the players put on us. And I understand that this may annoy those who can't wait for the new game. But game development takes a lot of time, and delays happen all the time — GTA was recently delayed again, and that was the most reasonable decision. Because projects of this scale require not only a lot of time for development itself, but also a lot of effort to perfect everything, polish it, and get rid of bugs.
So what do fans really want? To get the game ahead of schedule, but unfinished and not meeting expectations? Or wait for the version that has been refined for as long as it takes to be truly good? I think everyone will choose the second option. Therefore, we are not in a hurry and will give ourselves as much time as we need to make the game really great.
Angela Browder (studio director) suggested that players use their imagination:
[...] Over the years, the industry, the hardware — everything has gone so far ahead since we made the last game in the series that I'm just thrilled with what lies ahead. The possibilities, the visualization technologies, everything has advanced so much now that it's just crazy! To be honest, sometimes I look at what we're doing and think: "The Angela from the time of Skyrim development could never have imagined that she would ever see something like this!". And it's great to be a part of such a process. I really hope that when the release day comes, and our fans pick up the game — especially those who have been with us for many years — they will be able to see how much everything has advanced.
Todd Howard (game director and executive producer)
Development is going really well. Most of the studio is currently working on TES VI, but I will say this: we always have "overlap". We have long been accustomed to parallel development. In addition, we have long pre-production stages to be confident in the result. It's a process. We would all like things to go a little — or even a lot — faster, but it's a process that we want to do right.
