Hopes for the next Elder Scrolls?

So Fallout 4 clearly made sucsess with a new more FPS type of fallout. Now I'm wondering what people want from the next Elder Scrolls along with my opinion. So while I loved everything about Fallout 4 (like smiled as wide as the joker the entire time waiting at the midnight release) its pretty clear their old engine (it was made using an engine heavily based off of Fallout 3's engine) is starting to show its age. The game was a bit clunky and rough even if the game itself was a beauty. I think if they went to work on a new engine that works around both what they are familiar with all the while being much more capable they could do so much better. Now that that is out of the way I'd like to be able to fully craft a sword with multiple options of parts and different shapes of metalwork that can change the swing speed, damage, and other factors. Same thing with armor. Maybe Co-op. Maybe. Not sure. Would be interesting if a race of Demora became playable. Maybe some kind of race banished from oblivion? Quests that can have a ripple effect on the main story. Example: failing to close an oblivion gate can lead to the death of an entire village and cause it to be infested with endless deadra and a few of them are willing to sell or send you on a quest. Along with the location will visually change. End up the bad guy. What if I want to be an inspiration to all the scoundrels of the world? Being in opposing guilds to be a challange. If I'm in the Dark Brotherhood and plan to join a guild that is all about justice then I should have to attempt to keep the peace to a point. Like convince them the brotherhood can be good for their cause. Dwarven technology research. Basically you can work to engineer dwarven sentries and forge parts to modify gear. Maybe make a midevil power armor like devise. Though maybe or maybe not the last part. More magic. Always fun using different spells. Maybe a powerful spell that requires you to sacrifice a soul gem and the stronger the soul gem the stronger and more intense the spell gets. Maybe even puzzles that require magic. Oh and telekinesis. Who doesn't want to send a bottle of skoma flying through someones head. Don't take this as not likeing skyrim but it didn't have as strong a story as Oblivion in my opinion. I'd probably avoid "the chosen one" that was the Dragonborn. It just left a feeling that I had a very clear path. That and can I not start as some form of prisoner? I'm starting to worry that Bethesda has some.... Fetish with them... Maybe I was a humble merchant on my way to (insert province here) and was attacked and taken hostage by the cult of Vaermina that are controlled to perform her will in their sleep. You escape (in typical tutorial fashion) and decide you should report this to king of a the closest kingdom and from there get thrown into a world of war and chaos. Well at least that's my pitch. Character reactions. If you are known as the guy who killed the king or something I shouldn't be able to pay 50 gold or something and head off to the local pub for a cold one. I just killed you're king! Why are you asking me for 50 gold? Why is the other option a week in prison? Did you hate the king that much!? [u]Congratulations if you got to the end. This list is probably just going to keep growing.[/u]

  • While I like the idea of playing co-op with a friend, I can't think of anyway that it could work well. And don't think I want them to put time into that. Much rather they fine tune what they have. And focus more on the single player aspect. MP in games is rarely anything good enough for me to play more than a few times. Usually takes a developer several games to get something good worked out online. Id like to see some expansion on the settlement building from FO. Id love to set up look out towers and forts. Assembling an army that you use in the campaign story. Make it so that building strong settlements expands the size and strength of the army. Setting up the army line up by putting certain races/classes on the front lines or has medics etc. Limitless possibilities! So much more but that was first thing I thought of
