Todd Howard crying over Zelda's success? Gamers recall old TES VI “leak,” while Jason Schreier responds to backlash over release date comment
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Recently, Bethesda Game Studios finally revealed the subtitle of the new installment in The Elder Scrolls franchise. 8 years after the release of the debut teaser, players learned that the game is titled TES VI: Sentinel.
Discussions about The Elder Scrolls VI flared up online once again, and Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier decided to comment on the potential release date. According to his information, “this game is still more than two years away.” Some users began accusing him of wanting to ruin the “celebration” (the excitement over the new teaser for the game).
Ultimately, Schreier decided to address the wave of hate—he reminded everyone that he is a journalist and shared this information not to mock anyone:
I'm not telling you this because I enjoy seeing people get upset that they have to wait a long time for sequels to their favorite games. I'm telling you this because it is true, and because my job is to report accurate facts and debunk false information. TES VI: Sentinel is still more than two years away.
During the discussion, some users began circulating a screenshot of an “inside scoop from 2021.” The author of the post on an anonymous imageboard shared extremely dubious information. He claimed that his brother works at Bethesda and that Todd Howard allegedly took the success of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild very hard:
Todd does nothing but walk around the office yelling really vague things at employees like, ‘Do better!’ According to [the brother], when BotW came out and blew up, Todd spent a solid half hour screaming about how Nintendo **** right in their faces and nobody is doing anything about it. Then he locked himself in his office and sobbed for like an hour straight.
This post also mentions the name “Sentinel.” Now gamers, like EasyRecognition, are wondering: “Do y'all remember that imageboard leak from 2021? Funny how things turned out.”
