Fans had believedThe Elder Scrolls VIwould launch beforeFallout 5, but after this development they’re not so sure.
Similar to Rockstar Games’ fandom, they didn’t agree that such a wait was acceptable.

Now, however, the discussion has turned into a heated debate over which should come first:Elder ScrollsVIorFallout 5.
TheFalloutseries is where all these troubles started, but it’s just so gosh darn good!
They theorised that the only wayBethesdacould make that happen was to “take away resources” fromElder Scrolls VI.

That, or “get another studio” to work onFallout 5.
None of which is ideal as far as both fandoms are concerned.
“Chasing monthly TV trends when you have a seven year game dev cycle is just stupid as sh*t,”statedbreathnac.
Few would argue otherwise, however, it’s also fair to say that hardly anyone expected the TV show to do as well as it did.

“Tbf, a lot of adaptations aren’t well received,” said CuriousWoollyMammoth, “I mean, look at Todd Howard’s face when he was told how high the score was for the show.”
Using this as a basis for whyFallout 5might release earlier, it’s more than plausible thatThe Elder Scrolls VIis momentarily put on hold.
And yet, it was only a month ago that atrailer for theSkyrimsequel was teased.
Consequently, it seems unlikely Bethesda is ditching one game for the other.

All they want is answers – is that too much to ask?
