Fun place to remind everyone that the elder scrolls six teaser video is over 6 years old now too.

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 35 points 2 months ago

They had to poop out starfield first

[-] makyo@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago

Doesn't give one much hope for a new Elder Scrolls, does it

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

Nope. I'm expecting Skyrim with better graphics on the same ancient engine. I'm sure it will be fine, but Bethesda no longer makes genre-defining games.

[-] makyo@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

And the same ancient animations and the same ancient loading screens :/

[-] _____@lemm.ee 11 points 2 months ago

Still the same stinky Bethesda engine I bet. Same stinky bugs, just like starfield.

....what are your expectation for GTA 6? Mine are pretty low considering shark cards and enshittification

[-] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

They canceled the GTA V story DLC after seeing the success of GTA Online, and their long-time head writer and producer resigned. I have little faith that GTA6 will capture the same spark that their earlier games had.

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 22 points 2 months ago

Right? This is where I'm at.

GTA San Andreas was peak GTA for me.

[-] sznowicki@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Oh yes. When next gta came out I couldn’t understand why they made it so dumbed down compared to SA

[-] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

I liked the over simplification for one iteration. It started to get daunting to run through everything

[-] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

Not vice city? Wow, OK...

[-] colderr@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Mine are hopeful. I expect GTA Online to still be shit, but I hope that the main story is good. Considering it's rockstar, then it should be a pretty proper game story wise. But we'll just have to wait and see.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I expect them to have that shit not just in the online aspect but the single player as well. Which also means you can't play if you're not connected.

[-] ptz@dubvee.org 26 points 2 months ago

I'll join you on that planet and wait for HL:3

Then there's Star Citizen... Eternity isn't that long, is it?

[-] OhShitSon@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago

That piece of crap will never be released. They make more than enough already.

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Is there a goal-post tracker? Like, xyz feature added to release plan, +5k man hours

[-] OhShitSon@lemm.ee 7 points 2 months ago

If there is they surely must have moved that goalpost several times.

[-] ChronosTriggerWarning@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

"According to my calculations, we'll just have to wait here, oh... about six years."

[-] superkret@feddit.org 4 points 2 months ago

GTA6 release confirmed for the year 368944

[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

Then your ship fails to launch and you need to do emergency repairs and when you come back to Earth the only version of GTA6 you can play is a shitty remaster.

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

This makes me curious. There have to be sci fi stories out there where instead of cryostasis, people are just moved really fast or put in high gravity environments to make time move slower for them

[-] zarkony@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago

That's a major part in the Ender's Game series. They have faster than light communication, but the ships travel at like 90% the speed of light. So when traveling between planets, it's like a two week trip to the people traveling, but 20 years on planet.

The main character Ender travels often, so he is only 35 in the second book, a couple thousand years after the first book.

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Oh true! I haven’t read Ender’s Game in years, and I only read the first book. Thanks for the reminder I should re-read.

But I’m also specifically curious about sci fi franchises where the slowdown of time is intentional as a way to preserve people, it sounds like a cool premise, and with the mountain of sci fi material I imagine it’s probably been done somewhere

[-] colderr@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

That sounds like a really cool idea for a movie or a book.

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

you’d likely need to go somewhere a bit more extreme to wait for silksong

[-] Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

It'll only take a few minutes
