5 Things We Want in Elder Scrolls 6 

The thing I want the most out of Elder Scrolls 6 is a release date

6:00 AM. Sick, can’t sleep. This video was meant for me.

Bandit guilds, I always wanted to loot and pillage with a band of merry men. I also wouldn't mind if every guild storyline didn't end with you becoming 'the boss'. In Skyrim it seemed that whatever you did you were somehow the chosen one.

For the unique “deaths”, the game Outward had really cool outcomes when your health reach zero. Sometimes you were saved and brought to the closest town, sometimes you were kidnap and placed in a bandit fort with low health and no gear etc

I want vanity items so I can have good armor while being fashionable.

Something I want: Proper early-game safe storage. A place you can store your stuff before you're wealthy enough to buy your own home. This extends to factions: There's no reason you shouldn't have an assigned chest at any of the faction headquarters, regardless of whether you're a rookie or the guild master.

Things I want in 6, the unlock spells back, the ability to wear 2 rings again, the ability to craft skooma, no Blades, Tiber Septim's dragon friend returning in the main game or DLC, left hand elven ruins, Khajiit wives an husbands, a Non deadric artifact questline from hircine that allows you to choose the wherebeast you can become, and a new deadric realm to see.

"With this character's death, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created." This quote alone made me be more selective about who I kill. Essential NPCs really bothered me.

One thing that would be cool is the ability to set up a store or stall somewhere to sell all the stuff you crafted. You could have a follower running it while you are out hunting Thalmor!

5:10 no dont force the player to kill the bandit, he spared you give the option to spare him and also to rob him back, maybe this could even end up with the bandit seeing you as a kind of rival or arch enemy. with him later returning having gone through his own adventures and leveled up with his own companions to attack you again... or help you... maybe hes that kind of bandit. more veriaty than just go to x kill y please.

I want the ability to smash open locked doors and chests with brute force

The only things I really want are a complete, competent, fleshed-out game that isn't rushed because a deadline date looks cool, and an immersive gameplay with enough variety to warrant repeat visits.

I’d like some more dynamic swordplay mechanics like a section in the block tree that lets you deflect attacks and maybe counter attack if done successfully.

*What we NEED are SPEARS! Any less will be met with open hostilities from the Thalmor!*

The old classes and birth signs system would be a nice return and would hopefully encourage actual roleplaying.

Hope they have some unique and powerful items that can only be bought rather than found in dungeons. Gives the feel that the world existed before you got there with earlier adventurers bringing things back to towns for sale or even some traders being the offspring or descendants of said adventurers who have since retired or died and some items being something you have to build up the money to afford rather than luck into. Always loved having to find the coin for that anti-Beholder shield in Baldur's Gate II and only then taking on the Beholders running that cult in Amn.

I've never understood the hate towards Oblivioni's level up system. To me, it makes sense that the more you use an attribute, the more that attribute develops.

Facts 😂 been grinding my red-guard build. My biggest thing for ES6 would def be more detailed, longer stories for guilds, more variety than two quest then boom your the leader and never talk to them again after the quest line 😂 maybe more factions and guilds too. Another wish is the royal armory mod is dope so I’d like more unique weapons and armors for special characters that are player specifics

Somethings I would like that I don’t think you’ve mentioned yet.. #1 Racial anatomy: building off of more variety with the races, I would love to see the skeletons and corpses represent the different races. Imagine having a necromancer character with the skulls of men, mer and beasts decorating their shelves. #2 Language/Dialect: I would be awesome to have the different races differ in their speech more than all Nords speaking like Arnold and all elves speaking RP-english. Morrowind did this good with the dunmer having their own words (N’wah etc). Furthermore it would be really interesting with languages more than tamrielic. Imagine listening to a group of Redguard or Orcs, not understanding anything, unless you have invested in speechcraft or some other way, and then getting subtitles. It could be used very selectively to get extra clues or so, so bethesda don’t need to kill themselves recording these lines.

A sufficiently advanced conjurer should be able to summon lock picks. They need to expand conjuration

re: Targeting body parts, it would be cool if a survivor of a headshot came back with an eyepatch or a survivor of an ax to the leg came back with a peg leg. re: Dwemer reveal - it reminds me of Marvel comics approaches to Wolverine's backstory and Dr. Doom's face. For Wolverine, they milked that mystery for 30 years, to the point that people stopped caring. The reveal felt a bit like a sales gimmick, but they told a good story. With Doom, they never revealed his face and after a while the fans stopped wondering what was behind the mask. It became a non-issue. I'm not sure which is better, but if they put out a game every 12 or so years I don't expect to live long enough to see Elder Scrolls 8 if I don't get hit by a bus before 6 or 7.

I definitely hope for some color shading options for created armors to complement the smithing ability, assuming Smithing is still a mechanic. I love factions of all kinds and I sincerely hope they keep all the things that make it fun, that is, unique armor/weapons/spells, home bases or shared faction spaces, and of course prestige in relevance to protagonist arc. Lastly, as a staunch Daedra worshipping Khajiit, I would love more conceptions of daedric temples, quests/artifacts, and of course the Mora the better...

Similar to the alternatives to reloading, I'd like more options with how to deal with enemies. E.g. bandit quests where you need to capture a bandit and take them ba k to the city, Red Dead Redemption style. Or kidnapping quests for the Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, vampires etc. In Skyrim it was disappointing that enemies couldn't surrender to you, so they could run away but would just attack again 5 seconds later. Imagine if these characters would also remember: you captured a bandit leader and he escapes and tries to hunt you down; you kidnapped a lord and traded him to Molag Bal, or kidnapped and ransomed them; you capture a bunch of bandits and recruit them into your retinue.

I would love an in lore explanation of how you respawn after death and more npc reacting to your specific outfit in the context of the situation. Like if you wear Imperial Armor to a Stormcloak rally, youre gunna have a bad time

I'd also like to see transport that actually works. E.g. carts you can actually control, horses and other mounts that can actually function as cavalry, boats and ships that can be used and controlled. Ideally this would work like Assassin's Creed Odyssey, (it's a region famous for ships and pirates) but a more limited version would still be a major improvement.

I really hope they get a competent writer, maybe even have Kirkbride back as lead-writer for TES6.

What I want, Is to get armoury back... People didn't like how it worked, but I did, because it made sense... Getting out of a battle were your weapon or armour didn't get damaged or plainly broken, would make sense to fix it, so it would make you go to an forge to fix it, but I would go one step beyond, make it so that the grindstone would sharpen bladed weapons, the smithing bench temperance the armour and blunt weapons, enchanted weapons could only be fixed at the enchanted table... Your armour skill could fix your items on the fly, but it would just gain temporarily durability... It would also be cool that you could at a glance see how your items and the enemy's items getting slowly grinded down into scrap... Would love to see the durability spells return, so you could fix your items and corrupt the enemy, so yourself gain a bubble of perfect shell of defence, while the enemy slowly becoming naked and afraid... Ideas?

I really hope we get highrock and Hammerfell together. These regions are so connected that I don’t think you could tell ones story without the other.

I had an idea for a quest called only fools and corpses. Its about two bungling brothers trying their hand necromancy because they think its kind of cool but they dont realise what they have just unleashed. They have raised the dead from the near by grave yard, some as ghosts, some as zombies some as wraiths. The ghost of their dead mother it haunting them constantly chastising them about what a bunch of losers they are. You can defend the town against hords of undead, you can try resolving the situation through talking to the spirits by getting the book of ansestors or whatever, doing a séance and resolving the ghosts unfinished businesses (some good and some bad) or you can side with the undead, destroy the village and collect the brains of the villagers. It would be more of a comical quest line but it should have multiple ways to solve the problem and you as the player can make if far darker if you want to.

I hope they bring in more types of Magick spells like wind, water, earth and even combine them to make an even greater and stronger spell. But it drains it much quicker than normal spells.

I love the alternate "deaths" idea. Though in combination with that I’d like the option to spare enemies. "You beat me but only took my gear while I was unconscious? I will return this mercy!" The first time in Skyrim a bandit dropped down and begged me to spare her I was really disappointed when she got up again and attacked like nothing happened... Maybe there could be more options for downed/surrendering enemies -kill them -let them go -take them to prison (for bounty?) -killable companion (like that 10 charisma perk in Fallout 4 but more refined) -(...)

Greetings from the future! I have just played TES VI and can reveal three facts about it 1. You start off as a prisoner 2. There are a huge number of bugs that have to be fixed by mods 3. People will complain that it is not as good as Skyrim

I'd love a locational damage and bleeding system. I've been playing with the Wildcat mod for years, it's a must have.

I think I’d like them to give the Bosmer the customization options the lore says they can have. I’d like a set of horns and a tail, I’ve researched it and it’s lore friendly, it’s just considered extremely rare to see tailed wood elves (connections to the khajiit, anyone?) I know this is 99.9% not gonna happen but I can dream

Glad for another channel entry! Also the warnings are hilarious. Thanks for another one Michael!

I think Malacath should have more of a presence in TES6, especially if the game is taking place in High Rock and Hammerfell. Instead of Orsinium getting sacked again, it should RISE. Great hordes of ogres, goblins and other beastfolk march across Tamriel, pouring from the nooks and crannies of the provinces that other races banished them to, answering to the rallies of the the Daedric Prince of the spurned and ostracized. Most Orcs will heed the call and pledge loyalty to him. Some Orcs will not, since their loyalties and reverence will be with others (Trinimac, the Nine Divines, etc.). The new Orsinium will expand it's borders into High Rock and Hammerfell (Malacath has got some unfinished business with these two, ESPECIALLY HAMMERFELL). It will be up to the player to either hold and break the forces of Malacath, or to wield the mighty Volendrung and lead the mighty hordes to glory!

Small gripe- but I’d love to see combat animations that are a little closer to realism, Skyrim looked and felt better- but it makes the character look awkward with how wide and loose the patterns for weapon attacks are. I think it would look and feel better if the stances and attacks mimic’s something closer to what we see in hema or kendo. Not super realistic like KCD or Hellish quart, just not the wild flailing with awkward recoveries that we see in Skyrim.

Magnificent idea for a return and revamped version of the attribute system! Now, make a part XIII or the Hero Of Kvatch will retire and the new Sheogorath will be Nazeem, driving you insane by eternally asking if you get to the Mania District very often!

hey what if in besting the bandit who robbed you, you have the option of offering to join them as a raid leader?

so basicly, first part is you want the jail mechanics for road bandits, vampires and other stuff too? I'd get into it, as long as it's not same every single time. Like how many times are we breaking out of jail anyway instead of reloading

1. Season pass 2. Micro transactions 3. Games as a service. 4. Cut content sold later 5. house building.

I'm still hoping that I can become a swordsinger in ESVI. Maybe the PC stumbles on an ancient text that expands the concept, allowing it to take some form that would be useful to magic-wielding characters as well as martial characters.

Happy New Year, FudgeMuppet.

Happy New Years FudgeMuppet!!!

I would want more quests where you can tame different animals kind of like pets of Skyrim but new mounts like riding a bear or something

I just want simple things in NPC AI. NPCs that don't ask ask "Can I help you?" or give you some rude comment about why they don't have time just because you happen to be running past them. NAV meshes that prevent followers or other NPCs from blocking doorways or narrow halls. Lastly, longer pauses between idle conversation for followers and maybe be positionally aware. This would prevent my pet peeve in the game which is a follower blocking a door saying "I'm right behind you". No you're not! You're in the ****ing way! Move!

1) Add an NPC forgiveness system like what you see in Dark Souls. What I mean is how, given how easy it is to accidentally hit an NPC with magic or get an NPC with your blade while fighting something they're also fighting. And with the accidental attack, now everyone is pissed. Instead, I think they should make NPC aggro for accidental assaults more situational. Like if you just casually walk up and attack someone? Automatic assault bounty. But if you attack an NPC in combat, the NPC will only yell at you the first time, only becoming hostile if you continue to attack or otherwise damage them. 2) Instead of an automatic bounty upon committing a crime, make it like Red Dead Redemption where you don't get a bounty unless an NPC physically goes over and reports your crime. Or if you're caught stealing an item, the item's owner will try to take it back before calling the guards, like in Fallout. 3) More RPG elements like in the past. 4) Bring back something like how you're recognized as the protagonist when you beat the main quest.

Saw you got to a million, congratulations!!

Part 13 or I'll fund a covert Dreugh revolution under Molag Ballin to rename Nirn into Lygma

Oblivion style armor equip system. Those who haven't played Oblivion both chest and pants are separate armor pieces instead of one single piece like in skyrim. I think the pauldrons(shoulder piece) were separate from chest as well, been awhile since I last played.

Personally I really like necromancy. I’d like to be able to do what the enemies in game are presumably able to do: Reanimating several corpses and giving them instructions like "Guard this area" I could even imagine becoming a dungeon master myself by taking over a crypt and filling it with undead servants though that would be too far for an Elder Scrolls game

I hope tes6 has customizable ships that you can sail and live in

I'd like to see an npc catching your arrow or even dodging it even when it does that slo mo action shot.

1. A melee system based on damage type (stabbing, cutting, hammering) where a given weapon has access to multiple damage types (a sword can cut or stab, an axe deals 1/2 cut and 1/2 blunt damage). I think this leads to customizable weapons like the FO4 crafting system gave us (a sword can mix cut and thrust, or specialize in either like a scimitar or rapier). It also leads to animations and perks going hand in hand (a parry/counter thrust works with both a stiletto or a spear). It also leads to armor consideration and ties aesthetics to stats (thick orcish plate armor defends against cut and blunt, but lack of chain mail makes it weak to thrusts) 2. Archery should be based more in marksmanship and utilize a limb-damage/limb-effect system (shooting a knee causes limping, shooting a hand causes disarm). Arrows may stay weak to armor, but strategic shooting would be the key. A tank may wade into a fight and control all opponents in eyesight, whereas a hunter may use stealth and cripple or insta-kill enemies one-by-one. Arrow trajectory should be more severe, with light arrows flying far and straight and heavy arrows dropping off sooner but landing with a punch. 3. Magic, particularly destruction magic, should be made to look more look like a firefight/wizard duel and less like a hit-scan boxing match. Elemental spells should have different categories (torrents, projectiles, touch spells) These categories have different special effects (flame torrents causes wood to stay on fire, stone stays frozen, water stays electrified. Projectiles splash on impact. Touch spells double as elemental parries)

Thanks for yet another year of incredible content. You have made my recent years much better. Much love, all the way from Sweden.

If you do not make a part 13 of this series I will be a sad. No one wants others to be a sad.

Having attributes back and older spell effects would be amazing when combined with the current smithing and enchanting of skyrim. I hope they decide to bring them back...

If they add acrobatics, it will need a huge overhaul, since jumping in Oblivion is basically flying around. I really like the perk tree system in Skyrim, and hope that they bing in over into TES 6. Something refreshing would be intertwined perk trees, for example, light armour could have a perk that lets you jump longer if wearing light armour boots. This would require something along the lines of lvl 50 Light Armour and lvl 50 acrobatics. Or a destruction perk that lets you cast spells from your sword. I would also love to see more weapon specific perks and maybe even enchantments. For example, you could have a pair of gauntlents that made you do 10% more damage with maces. Or a perk that mad MACES lighter. Lastly, i hope they leave the class selection out of this. It just makes it so that you're stuck with one playstyle.

Attributes would really help make builds feel different again. In Skyrim, the only stat/perk difference between a brutal mace-wielding bandit and a swift and cunning swordsman are the blade/blunt/axe-specific perks that very few people actually ever even use.

This is a great video, looking forward to your next video in this series, An idea I could think of is implementing the idea of the Fallout 4 mod Sim Settlements where if the war aspect of Skyrim was expanded where Dynamic towns and homes could be built up and destroyed in ways that is connected and unconnected to the actions of the player. Will another video about the things wanted to Fallout be out soon?

when captured by vampires you have a few options wait for rescue at xp cost, escape, or... a new quest starts that sees you agree to bring villagers to be amboshed by the clan of vamps and eventualy they make you a vamp for your help and you can then build up the clan fallout 4 settlement but better. whatcha think?

This channel feels like a big warm blanket and a cup of coco to me. Thanks mate

I'd love to see there be raids on cities or your player home being broken into with a chance of the burglary being successful.

I love the concept of getting robbed in Elder Scrolls. I picture running into bandits and you are trying to fight them off and not realizing that one of the bandits hits you with a paralyze arrow, than instead of trying to kill you, they loot you while your awake and cannot move, than they run away.

I just really want elder scrolls 6 :(

Perfect, a fudgemuppet video for my morning

Out here, eagerly waiting for all the new books, notes & lore pieces! ❤❤❤

I don't remember if this was ever said in a previous video, but I'd love a nemesis system like in the LoTR prequel games. Something like killing/not killing a bandit or character could change the story down the line in bigger ways

I'd love to see a jail situation similar to Red Dead Redemption 2. Like you guys said, it wouldn't have to happen often, but let's say you're apart of the thieves guild or dark brotherhood and you get sent to jail. Well, what if a fellow member of the thieves guild showed up and caused a distraction so you could escape, or you wake up to them opening your jail cell while all the guards are knocked out?

There's a few things I want out of ES6. Jyggalag like was mentioned. Orsinium, and not as villains. Stros M'Kai DLC Cheers bros.

I often thought since the those Dwemer in Hammerfell did continue learning you come across ones who actual heads or bodies have been rebuilt with machines , examples are the clockwork town in ESO. However when they all vanished this became a curse a undead status of rotting brains running machine bodies ,damaged limbs and machine parts, also making a new machine threat that acts more tactfully that the normal Dwemer machines. Giving a whole new challenge to this new area.

See, I fundamentally disagree here. A return of the Dwemer could make for an excellent main quest, ESPECIALLY if it's set in Hammerfell. Imagine the initial bit of the game, you're a prisoner taken in by some bandits that work for a mage, who are exploring a Dwemer ruin, and through events, you activate a long dormant machine that causes a chain reaction that results in the emergence of these ghostly individuals - translucent Mer, bathed in cyan and blue lights, with flecks of star dust falling down their form likes snowflakes in the hot sands, these wraith-like ghosts are the disembodied spirits of the Dwemer, returned to Tamriel, and in their advent they will begin a campaign to once again assume corporeal form. A campaign that will inevitably bring their magical and technological might headlong into the path of the Redguard who have laid claim to the lands for generations, and the interloping Thalmor who seek to usurp the human's rule. You can choose to side with Redguard, to repel the ghosts and banish them back to the void from whence they came, the Thalmor, and use the opportunity to claim the land in the name of the elves, or with the Dwemer themselves, who come to see you as a sort of heroic, almost mythical figure as you return them to flesh and blood bodies.

Honestly, I've stopped wanting TES 6 I just want Skyblivion at this point It just seems more likely to happen in this decade....

I wouldn't mind some minor destruction mechanics eg. Fire spreading Edit: more advanced damage mechanics such as cutting off fingers/hands or causing irreparable bleed with arrows or well placed slashes

I watched all of these (great) vids, but still no mention of something I miss... the ability to fight underwater. To use weapons to fight underwater creatures. I was only slightly relieved to find that I could cast a -Cloak spell and dive, which would damage nearby slaughterfish. Yeah, the bigger the weapon, the slower it'll be, and ranged weapons are almost impossible to use. Maybe you could only cast spells if you have the Silent Casting perk. I just miss those occasional cave systems or underwater areas from Morrowind and Oblivion - Argonian bandits, dreugh lairs, sunken pirate ships, etc...

I would actually like to see the return of Blade and Blunt in place of One-Handed and Two-Handed. As someone who likes to maximize all of my skills, training any other skill alongside Two-Handed is pretty much impossible. Tangentially related, I'd like to see some non-combat skills. Progression being entirely tied to combat (which has always been one of the weaker aspects of Elder Scrolls games) kind of limits what character you make. It worked **kind of** with Skyrim because it's supposed to be a rough, war-torn, and dangerous province, but being able to do a playthrough that isn't fundamentally a fighter would at least be interesting.

Make another part or Molag Bal will ally with the British and retake Australia, forcing you to eat nothing but mushy peas all day, every day.

It would be cool if as a powerful enough Vampire you could make any non essential NPC your thrall that will fight for you and basically be your follower but you can also feed on them. As a lower level Vampire you might only be able to turn people already your follower into a thrall you can feed on.

4:20 am can’t sleep. This video came at a perfect time

I can’t wait for this game!! Starfield will hold me over I guess..

I think it would be good if the skills increased dynamically through experience rather by upgrading using skill points. Eg. if you use a sword a lot, you will get better at using swords instead of getting a point that you can invest in something irrelevant

Allow conjurors the ability to summon more & more summons at once as they level up the skill. Maybe one extra summon every 10-20 levels in conjuration. Had a mod that essentially did that and it made summons feel worthwhile.

Sick idea: If you "die" with Mal Balog mace, you get the option to drag that man soul to Balog but in 2 month time, he will manifest stronger and blood crazed so you must put him down or Balog claims your soul cuz you werent "worth it"

Someone put in a Facebook Skyrim group that they wished that the Elder Scrolls didn’t force your character to be evil to get certain items, like the Mace of Molag ball, Mehrunes Razor, etc. And I kinda agree, there should be multiple ways to achieve weapons or rare items. I’d also like to see more random occurrences happen, and a lot more NPCs and MANY more people you can kill/run into.

I really hope there is some kind of transmog system for weapons and armor in The Elder Scrolls 6. There are so many cool weapons and armor in The Elder Scrolls games. But most of them are used very little before becoming obsolete or they’re never used at all. That’s why I think a transmog system would be great for TES6! Because you would still be able to use the meta gear in the game. But you could also use the appearance of other weapons and armor that fit your character better. Honestly, I think transmog systems should be a staple feature in these types of games. Because of how much they improve role playing.

Good stuff. Much love from Australia

Totally agree with the fail upwards!~ I had a characters fanfic backstory where he failed to return from a completed quest due to cursed blood poisoning. When he wakes he's being used in an experiment. As he is a human chimera (mother and himself are redguards, father and the twin brother who was absorbed while gestation are imperials - his eyes and hair color are his brothers) he is able to get monster anatomy transplants. Such transplants like: Eye transplant after loss of eye, Infected with a living monster parasite due to a broken back thatblooks like a moving full body tattoo, Loss of a left leg and damage to his left arm causes him to link his soul to a living armour to wear as a prosthetic and a support brace - also used as armour that changes shape and materials depending his current needs.

Fudgemuppet should give the okay for ES6 content for bethesda

I’d really love to see things like if you were to die, necromancies can revive you and you can watch yourself become a mindless zombie. Maybe you could even have a quest to get your consciousness back or something like that. Or just unique “defeat” scenes using magic/spells that would normally kill you instead giving you a second chance in a way.

Smithing could be cool if you unlocked weapon and armour schematics in the skill tree and learned techniques in various towns/cities. Fold in attributes for this. For example: 20 smithing unlocks the ability to create swords and gauntlets. There is an ex-stormcloak quartermaster who teaches you steel smithing after you complete his quest to bring him a bottle of mead. Now add in the speed attribute to give the ability to upgrade the steel sword to a keen blade (-.5 weight, +1 damage and .2 armour bypass chance). Strength attribute unlocks the heavy blade increasing damage and stun chance but added weight. Just an idea, conversation?

These are really great ideas. I would piggyback your first point about random encounters and skirmishes that would cost you your loot. My addition to that, as it refers to random encounters, is that every damn character you encounter outside a hold doesn't attack you on sight. I'm ok with the environment being generally hostile, but I'd like to see a little more cause for conflict. Maybe some verbal exchanges upfront. Perhaps your character could even skirt some of the conflict based on a higher speech level. Or maybe even some inclusion based on your reputation based on past decisions you've already made in a playthrough. I would also like to see a major overhaul on the tendencies of the guards.

Part 13 or Heimskr delivers ES6 personally and stays outside your door proclaiming the gospel of mighty Talos until you 100% the game

1. A pc/console game and not some mobile game port 2. A finished game and not rushed trash 3. Sticking true to already established lore and not ret-conning half of it in the name of inclusivity, this is fantasy not real life 4. No crappy mtx/live service store 5. Mod support

What would be even cooler is if you could hire said bandit who robbed you after you defeat him at his fort. Just like how you can choke out guards in AC Odyssey to recruite them. After he/she bests you, and you later defeat them and if you like them you could hire them as a merc.

I've had a thought regarding on if they were to bring stats back. If somehow I had a similar idea in the video, sorry lol. Paused it as soon as FM started talking about stats. A character's stats should be predetermined at Level Up by two things: 1. Their Race. 2. Their Class/Job. Also, like Skyrim, have skill books you can find and Trainers you can pay (a hefty amount I might add) that either boost specific stats (like a book about magic raises magic related stats) or let you allocate points in your desired areas to better suit your playstyle (Obviously, it'd have to be a finite amount of times you can do so for balance reasons). I still think it should have a Perk system like Skyrim though (more fleshed out though). Idk random thought right now, maybe have your stats determine the amount of experience you earn for doing each thing? Like Strength effects how fast your Two-Handed can level up, Agility for Archery, or even have a combo of stats do so like both Agility/Endurance for Light-Armor and Strength/Endurance for Heavy-Armor? Things like that.

As If we'll even see an elder scrolls VI this decade.

My idea for the TES6 intro: You wake up at the snowy border between skyrim and highrock, as a khajit caravan stopped to take care of you - a friendly Khajit merchant helps you up and gives you some health potions to regain the HP you lost due to frostbite. You travel with them further into Highrock, as suddenly the carawan is ambushed by orcs. The carawan gets massacred and an orc chieftain stabs you, before they leave after looting all the carawans stuff. Using the few health potions you have left, you are able to evade death and find yourself surrounded by the corpses of those who helped you. One of the Khajit can be given a potion to stay alive and become a follower. You follow the orcs to their lair and kill them, taking the sword the orcs looted from the very merchant who saved you for yourself.

Am i dreaming? Has this series finally came back? I'm crying, it's beautiful

Basically, for #2, we want D&D skill stats. Fully agree!

Bethesda has to see this
